Using all of the letters is called creating a Bingo word. You are given a set of letters to form as many words as possible. If the author gets that fixed, it would be worth every penny of that, and maybe even more to those of us who so completely enjoyed playing TextTwist on the web. There are no security concerns, so the worst that happens is you try it, don't care for it, and delete it.Īt the current asking price of $1.99.I'd have to give it a pass, solely because the dictionary is so bad. That would really make it a great learning tool for kids.Īs the FAOTD, there's really no reason not to get this and give it a try. A K-3rd grade dictionary.3-7 grade.8-12 grade, and adult. They take up almost no room (because text compression is very efficient), so the app should have multiple dictionaries that can be used. (related) Lists of words are a dime a dozen. And there are some words that I have confirmed in the dictionary (Webster's Dictionary of the English Language) that the game won't accept. Some of the words it asks for are proper nouns. Exits completely with the 'X' on the main menu. I couldn't find any hidden adware code or privacy issues. Minimal and fully justified permissions.

Also, no worries about it running you over your data plan quota. So you can take it on vacation, or the train ride to work, and not have to worry about the game cutting out when you hit a data-poor zone. That makes more sense to me than having to go into a menu every time.especially if you don't want sound, but something's going to be making noise until you get to that menu and turn it off. I actually like that it asks you every time if you want to enable sounds. (I like this because sometimes I just see the Bingo word while I'm shuffling letters.would hate it if the round ended just because I saw the biggest word early.) You have the option to move on to the next level once you get the 'Bingo' word or to stay and keep playing the current set of letters. Gives you the full list of words when you're moving on to the next level (if you didn't get them all, that is), so you can see what you missed. Great way to get the kids working on their vocabulary without getting too frustrated. Set the maximum word length to 5, 6, or 7.

Timed, untimed, 'Bingo word' rush, Letter mania (make a word, get new letters.hope you don't get stuck with a Q!), and a daily word puzzle. This game is a variant of that, and while it is lacking some of the fun I recall, it's still a solid, fun game. I used to play TextTwist (web/Flash based) on Y! games.and I loved it.
