Are you a word game fanatic? My Mom sure was. She watched Wheel of Fortune, packed word finds in her bag and always beat the pants off me in Scrabble. She encouraged her grandkids to play along with her too. I have heartwarming memories of Little Lu curled up with her looking for letters. I enjoy playing a game or two myself and I think I found a good one in this weeks contest sponsor, Work Hack. Recently release on the US market it’s already #3 in the word game category on iTunes.
Word Hack is easy to play. Simply match the colored letter tiles to fill in the blanks that build words and solve puzzles, with the added challenge of limited mistakes and time. There are lots of categories to keep you thinking and the points you earn for solving a puzzle can be used to open even more. Those points can also be used to purchase add helpers like extra time, extra strikes, red squares and fill a blank. I’m a purest when I play these games, probably a gene I got from Mom, so my points stack up to go for more puzzles. Some I solve rather quickly like “subway platform” others like “Oscar selfie” kicked me to the curb. I found it to be a fun little app that keeps me engaged and for at least right now, its FREE!
