That was fun but it does not recognize a lot of words. There were a lot of little scrabble words/crossword puzzle words I tried that it did not accept

You addicted me already

It didn't know Wii and MRT. :(

Ah, but unlike Scrabble, there's no recourse if you wind up with all consonants. :(

It told me "spam" is not a word! Just for that I'm going to send them hundreds of unsolicited e-mails for products and services they don't want or need!

I had the same problem with "spam". And I often ended up with all vowels!

That was pretty cool, but needs work. There's nothing like an entire game with only 2 vowels (3 if you include y). I think at one point I had 4 S and 3 T, what do you do with that?

I love it! I also like other word games like Wordy and Swizzle Pop.

Yup, that's fun. It'll need a better lexicon before it becomes really useful.

The other thing it could do with is detecting when you've a full line of consonants and bypassing the randomness to drop a vowel in. There are probably languages out there that can make a word from xdwtpkm, but English isn't one of them.

What are the win/lose conditions? I got to a game over dialog. Why can't I just keep playing and racking up points? Is there a timer I'm not seeing?

rintrah:- I think there's a set number of tiles.

Perhaps if the developer gave an option. Fixed set or Open ended.

Thanks a bunch. I've been playing since I saw the posting, about 24 hours now.

I finally figured out the multiplier thingy (I know, I'm not too swift sometimes) and gaming that definitely upped my score, although the most I ever got was 600.

I can't even see my score! Where is it?

Miss C :- It's above the given letters.

Thanks. Skipweasel! I just scored 404.
