Puzzle people tend to think of themselves as being just a little smarter then your average Joe or Jane. If you know who Will Shortz is and don't have a clue who Gordon Freeman is, (Hint: Half-Life) chances are that you're a puzzle person. And if you're a puzzle person, Today's game should keep you busy for a while.
Today's game is a bit of a twist on the game Text Twist and is called Word Spell Spell as in wizard's spell not as in spelling bee. The back story for this game is that you are a wizard and all the titles of your spell books have been jumbled and you must rearrange sets of letters to make things right. Of course that matters little, because your goal is to simply make as many words as possible in the shortest amount of time from the supplied set of letters.
For each level in this game the clock gets shorter and the the words get tougher. You don't need to solve all of the possible words from a letter set, just meet the goal for the level in order to continue. and you can judge your skill and luck against other players on the high score board.
We like this game because, while it's not the most original game of it's kind, it's strait forward and fun to play.
