Bookworm and Solitaire met and had a baby!
     

So, picture traditional solitaire where all of the cards are letters. The only build rule, as far as I can tell, is that the letter being played on another letter must be a part of some existing word in the game's database (you can put a "u" on an existing "to" but not a "d" on a "qu" as there is no known word that has a "qud" as a part of it). Blanks in the tableau can be filled with any existing word or partial word (which, just as in traditional solitaire is how you reveal the turned down cards underneath). There is no foundation to play to so all of your work has to remain on the tableau. To complete a level you need to have all cards on the board exposed and formed up into complete words in the tableau. To help you achieve this is an optional little draw pile down below where you can look over one letter at a time and even go through the pile again at a bit of a point penalty. Also there is a flame pit you can throw away a small handful of cards you can't quite get to work into your words on the tableau (once tossed there is no way to get these card back). Your final score, as far as I can tell, is based on how big your words are, with penalties based on how many times you've moved through the draw pile and cards you've burned. All of your best stats are tracked (best score on a level, highest level, fewest moves to complete a level, and your best time completing a level).

Really special
     

I have about 12 top word games and this is different from any of them. Very well done and satisfying as you go through level after level. A keeper indeed!!!!

Well Done
     

Finally, a new type of word game. Even better since you guys updated the dictionary.
