Wordulous ($0.99)
REVIEW- “This app gets a high score for fun anagram puzzles!”
Wordulous is an app for anyone who is a fan of word games and loves to solve puzzles. Upon opening the app, I was greeted with a fun illustration of a cartoon girl welcoming me to the Wordulous game. If you are a first time anagram puzzle player, this app explains everything right from the beginning so you can learn how to play right away. I loved the layout of this app because the illustrations were visually appealing and resembled a school classroom. I would have liked to be able to use a keyboard to create anagrams rather than tapping certain letters, but I definitely got used to creating anagrams quickly using this app’s particular setup.
If you are an avid word puzzle player, this app definitely allows you to boast about your high score to others. Instant twitter updates is an available feature with this puzzle game as well as updates to your Facebook feed of high scores you achieve. At the end of each game, you can view the words you missed so you can improve your scores. If you are curious to see what the global and local high scores are, you can check that status as well. It’s also easy to get your friends and family to join your Wordulous games by viewing phone contacts and Facebook friends straight from the app itself.
I found that this app had many features to back up an entertaining word puzzle game. I played this game often and it actually helped me with my vocabulary and concentration. I would recommend this app to anyone who is a fan of word puzzles and wants a challenge!

The best anagram based game to hit the App Store; this game will leave you grabbing your iPhone or iPod the minute you have time to spare. And for that matter, when you don’t have time to spare and notice that no one’s looking.

Thanks a lot for the review Alyssa. We’re delighted to know that you liked the graphics of the game. We’ve tried to create a pleasant environment for anagrams through this game which many other similar games lack.
Bragging rights with online scores is definitely one of the main features of this game. But besides that ‘cheats’ to help you find more words and word definitions are two other important features.
We would also like to mention that the game supports 3 standard word lists i.e TWL,SOWPODS and ENABLE.
Do let us know if you have any suggestions to improve the game.
Cheers!!!
