Sidewords

Realized I didn't like it just after the refund period was over. It's a nice way to test your vocabulary, but sadly the game doesn't award you for finding long or complicate words that allows you to cover a big part of the grid. Most of the time a lot of small and simple words is the way to go. Although the game says that the combination given in the hints is not the only one possible, filling an entire grid except one tile, then changing words 10 times, without ever being able to finish the grid, makes the experience frustrating. Spending time to solve a puzzle is fun, but spending time looking for the exact correct word among 100 possibilities is not.

This game is really up my alley. Already addicted. If you like jumbles, or Scrabble, or any similar games, you will have a lot of fun with this. The first few puzzles are pretty easy to get you into the strategy of the game, but then the difficulty ramps up. There are daily puzzles that I'll probably try to keep doing day to day. Plenty of content for the low price. Definitely recommend. Only downside is the lack of music, but I just put tunes on in the background.

Certainly very relaxing, and a joy to play as it gets more complex and forces you to get more creative.

A really clever word game. It takes a while to figure out a good strategy, but each puzzle takes several passes of refinement as I keep some solutions and undo others to make room. It has daily puzzles, so there's pretty much endless content!

Easy concept to grasp, with open-ended solutions. Two people will almost certainly have different solutions to a puzzle, depending on what words they know and what comes to mind first. Each puzzle is pretty short, and there are different sized daily puzzles to tackle depending on how much time you have available. Even small puzzles can be difficult depending on the letter composition, though. One complaint I have is that the dictionary isn't very strict in the game. There are a lot of words that feel cheap to use but are pretty useful, and you can get a lot of 3 letter combinations by trial and error until a permittied one comes up that wouldn't be found in most dictionaries. It kind of takes away from the challenge, but it's still a fun experience. Definitely recommended if you like word games and anagrams.

A Fun Word Placement Game. The only thing it needs is Achievements.

The in-game puzzles themselves take about 8-10 hours to completely exhaust. The themed sets are great, and I would definitely love to see more of them added in. There's nothing extremely difficult, the hardest puzzles take about 10 minutes to put together. Right now, the puzzles are designed to be relaxing, but it'd be cool to have additional optional goals like using as few words as possible. That way, there's incentive to play older puzzles. The dailies are fun, and with 3 different board sizes everyday, it makes sure anyone can go into this game anytime and always have something new. The bonus Quads minigame is fun and worth the money on its own. It's essentially a cross between Boggle and 2048. Even if you have the main game finished, coming back to Quads and trying to beat your high score is a great way to spend time. One thing I'd like to see is the implementation of Steam workshop. It'd be very cool to create and submit my own puzzle sets, which would be beneficial for people who've completed the main game. Overall, a relaxing and enjoyable experience (even if it made me hate the letters Y and K just a little bit more.) Definitely worth the $5.

A lovely, relaxing puzzle game; really enjoying doing the dailies while slowly working my way through the regular puzzles.

Probably my favorite puzzle game. It's not overtly hard but definately takes some practice to get into the swing of things. The daily puzzles are great and keep the gameplay fresh. The one complaint I have is that there isn't any background music but that's an easy fix with all the streamable music out there. Totally worth it

Simple game about words that can make you improve your english vocabulary.
