The word search game with a twist. Play solo or as a team of up to 4 local players against other players around the world and/or against each other. Choose from various board sizes and time limits. Stuck? Just shake up the board.

I really enjoy this game. I'm visiting my parents for the 4th of July week and played the multiplayer with my Mom tonight. We got up to 7th on the scoreboard for the week.

Unfortunately there isn't an option to purchase the game. It just has micro transactions to get more plays and extra shuffles. I went ahead and spent the 99¢ for the one time unlimited plays for a week so I could play with family this week. After that it'll be uninstalled unless an option to purchase is added.

I sent an email asking for the option to purchase instead. I have a feeling it would have more likes if you didn't have to deal with micro transactions.

100% agree - We love this game in head-to-head competition, but micro transactions don't work for us either. 1.5 developers in the house.. we're toying with the idea of writing an alternate version that can be purchased. Seems to crash with 8x8 boards, 10 minute timer, and 3 players (3rd player using a PS3 controller), once the round is complete.

That's pretty much how I feel too. I loved the game, but with micro-transactions, as soon as I get my free plays over, I'll return to play just the paper version of this (Where you can't actually shake the letters )

I got a response back saying they were considering a buy option so it may be coming as an option.
