Word Twist: Classical Word Game for Windows 8, Windows 10

Word Twist is a terrific Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, Windows 10 word game not only for yourself, but for your family and friends: start playing!

We just can’t have enough of word games on Windows 10, Windows 8, do we? After reviewing Wordament for Windows 8 and Adlib, now it’s time for Word Twist: a word game for Windows 10, Windows 8 that wants to bring back the classical fun, if we can say so. Word Twist has a 4 out of 5 rating based on almost 1500 votes and is currently free in the Windows Store with no pro version around, but the free one is good enough to keep you entertained.

What makes the game appealing is the simplicity behind – you have only 6 letters to play around with. Random Salad Games, the creator of the games, has done a pretty decent job, the colors and interface of the game being very pleasant to the eye. The are four game modes: Classic, All or Nothing, Blind, and Kids modes and three levels of difficulty. What’s really awesome is that there are dictionary definitions for all of the words!

Enrich your vocabulary with WordTwist

You have two minutes at your disposal to make a word and score as much as possible. But because the application is free, there will be times when you will be annoyed by that advertising banner. I am suggesting developers to try a different placing, as it really troubles the player. You can use the Twist button to arrange differently the letters, if you’re out of ideas. And sometimes, that really helps!

Also, the achievements board is another motivational tool to get those words flipping. You have 4 different colors, according to the difficulty, which is represented by the length of the word you’re going to create. So, if you’ll make a word out of 3 letters, you’ll fill out the green column and so on. And, of course, you will get a smaller score for doing that and a bigger one for managing to discover a longer, more difficult word. And if you’re playing in team, you can always prove that your word “makes sense” with the help of the dictionary tool, which proves to be very useful.
