AAQR: Word Mix (game)

This game was another giveaway on Amazon.

Basically, it's the game where you are given X letters and you need to find as many words as possible given those letters. It's about as basic as they come. In fact, it will tell you how many words to expect if you hit the HINT button.

Nothing else to this game except OpenFEINT support.

AAQR: Lingrove (game)

Given away on Amazon App Store for a day, Lingrove is a word puzzle that is a bit like Mastermind, but with 5 letters (that must form words), not simple colors. You enter 5-letter words and you are told which letters are used and in the right place, and which letters are used but NOT in the right place. You have exactly 5 chances.

I never was very good at word games, such as Scrabble, so I was struggling with this one. There's a story to unlock, but there are a LOT of puzzles to solve.

Interesting, but not THAT interesting.

AAQR: WordSmith (game, paid)

WordSmith is a Scrabble-like word game where you use individual letter tiles to form words, the longer the better. It has random match.

The problem is the pace of the game. Everybody takes just about forever for those words. So what I ended up doing is I started like 4-5 games and wait for someone to make a move in one of them. You get push notification when someone's made a move so you can't miss your turn. On the other hand, it's boring as heck waiting and waiting.

Rating: Try it
