Ratings and reviews

Overall this game is a lot of fun. The story is odd, but enjoyable enough to keep me playing through the (for me) ridiculously difficult levels. Most levels are pretty easy to pass, but some seriously are difficult to juggle all the aspects required of them at the same time, while staying under the turn limit. Overall fun experience.

This is a fun game! Generally you just spend a few minutes making words with the available letter tiles. There are enough mechanics, and enough variety in the levels, to keep it from getting stale. There are a few annoying things. I do not like the timed levels at ALL. They are extremely difficult and completely change the game from relaxing fun to an intense struggle. Fortunately, it is now possible to turn off the time limit when doing those levels. I wish it were possible to skip those levels completely - even without the time limit, they aren't the most fun. But still a good game all in all.

I am dyslexic and so not a fan of word games, but this one I really like. You can drag your finger around looking for words. There are explosions, monkeys, lost or trapped anthropomorphic inanimate and animate things, intrigue, and a creepy Scooby style mad scientist. There is a lot of variety in new impediments, requiring ever changing strategies. My wife and I installed this almost 2 weeks ago? Anyway, we have both neglected our shows, because neither of us can put down this darn game!
