Good concept. But I found the best way to score was just randomly spamming around.

Good concept. But I found the best way to score was just randomly spamming around.
You'll get exponentially more points with longer words in combos, and the more combos you activate the more likely locked blocks become. Spamming works for a while but you'll never get a proper high score that way!
Love word games and this has a clever twist. I could easily see this as a commercial game on iOS. Cheers and thanks!
I had lots of fun making funny expressions like: "Give voodoo a chance" and "Mythical fanny poots"
Pretty slick word game. Nice art and well presented. Would have liked basic sounds for events, even sfxr stuff :) Would potentially make a good iOS game.
This would be fantastic on Android/iPhone. Needs a lot less difficult letters like V and less lock blocks though, to be a great GREAT game.
This is a great, fun game. I don't think it has much to do with minimalism, but it's a really neat concept, and it looks clean and sharp. Very nice work; I like the subtle sliding sound.
Word games aren't really my cup of tea, but for those who like them this is a very sold implementation and as far as I know a nice original idea, good work. (Not sure it has much to do with minimalism ;) )
I'm not sure I came up with a good approach to scoring higher point totals. Dictionary seemed a little permissive too. But I really liked the idea of the board locking up as you play - a mechanic to unfreeze the locks a little easier would be welcome. Nice work.
at first I was also just "spamming around" stupidly - but when more and more lines got blocked, my brain woke up.
nice little scrabble'esk game ;)
Cool concept! I had fun playing
Interesting concept, but more often than not, I would just have words appear randomly when moving things around, and scoring that way instead of actually planning where to find words. It takes out some of the strategy I had hoped this game would have.
Simple and fun... Although I just randomly spam the letters. I like the idea of the game :D
I want this on Android. Good job!!
When I started this game, I ask myself what is this shit... but actually, it's really a good game. I wait with impatience the french version :-). Good job.
PS :slamburger you're impressiv.
Nice twist on the classic word find game.
Took me a while to realize I could slide rows/columns of letters, once I discovered that it was much better.
I immediately turned to my wife and called it an "Infinite Boggle where you can slide stuff around", and that got her very interested as well.
Great job!
Good Job! nice entry
It's like Polymer but with letters!
I hate it.
Had some fun playing this, locked lines are so frustrating lol.
Fun game, managed to rack up about 45000 points on my second try.
aha!, very interesting rules, I love to see words inside the soup, it helps me think hehe, take a look to the game Letterbox for iOS...add some animations and great job!
