Full Versions

Free Version

WordPile is a fresh new take on word games. A fast, fun word-finding game everyone can play!

? ? ? ? ?

Featuring 5 intuitive, yet challenging game modes:

? Clear - Create as many words as you can starting from a full board of letters.
? Zen - A never ending supply of letters, however a timer is driving you to think quickly.
? Progressive - Each word found causes the letters to raise one higher. Don’t let them reach the top.
? Lightning - Letters are falling from the sky at an every increasing pace.
? Chaos - A hectic cross between the Zen and Lightning modes. Can you react fast enough to survive?

Update 7/13

WordPile has been approved for both the Apple and Amazon stores. The iOS version is now a couple point releases behind the Android version. I have submitted version 1.3 for approval which includes a few gameplay bug fixes. I’m hoping this time the approval is less then the 12 day the initial 1.0 version took.

I have also released a free version on the Google Play store.

The store links have been updated on the initial post. [import]uid: 42373 topic_id: 28183 reply_id: 115436[/import]

Used W6XYRWKP3J6A (first code.)

Really enjoyable, love the layout - clean and clear without being dull.

My own suggestion might be some kind of magnifying glass display (like you get on iPhone keyboard) to help you see which letters you’re touching, although I didn’t really have much trouble with that.

Good luck with downloads!

Used #LP3Y6NYXTMRL

Firstly thank you for sharing the promocodes and secondly I have to say that you got an awesome job, ops, I mean game built and live out there!

I agree with @Peach that the game is really enjoyable and also “smart” isn`t it? :wink:

Ill review it ????? at appstore as well as Ill buy a copy with other iTunnes account as so Ill be able to review it besides the promocode. Well deserved! **PS:** I have an opinion that is: if after "selecting"(as moved phase) the letters to build a word and so when get a "right" word (word included into the dictionary) it instead show only the formed word at the heads bar it would display the word using some kind of effect (maybe as @Peach said above, something like a ZOOM IN) for us the players be “knowing” at our face what word we really have formed. (as sometimes tapping anywhere to get a valid word can make it difficult to see what word was really formed). BTW I know that the WORD PILE actually shows all the valid built words when the time is gone and I love that, but maybe am asking for some more “visual effects” as when statarting the game and looking for SO MANY letters (principally into the iPhone display) can get “boring” even before start (for lazy brains like mine), SO some “letters exploding” or something like that would put it even more Noticed and kept by the player`s brain. :slight_smile:

PS2 : on iPad the game does “appeal” the player`s attention much more IMO.

Sorry, Just my opinion anyway.

Keep it up!
•••Ahh, I LIKED your Facebook Page as well. I would recommend you to “push” content there as it can become a very interesting place for showing your precious games like the Word Pile. :slight_smile:

Cheers,
Rodrigo.
