Description
Worder is a challenging word game which tests your ability to find words within a set of nine letters.
Worder requires no internet connection and is great for plane flights, commuting on subways and remote travel destinations.
The object of the game is to make as many words as possible.. and find the one word using all nine letters too.
Worder has no timers, explosions or music, just sit down for a relaxing game of Worder.. playing at your own pace.
Worder includes many game options, including a "Shared Letter" mode where all words should include the highlighted letter, or standard mode that allows you to use all letters.
The minimum word length for a game can also be selected, which can limit the number of words that need to be found.
Worder also includes 6 difficulty levels, so that Worder can cater for those who are intimidated by games with large word sets, to those people who are word game experts. Level 6 includes all words, where lower levels include a subset of the entire word list, based on how commonly words are used in everyday language/text.
You can challenge your friends by sending your current game for them to play. See if they can beat your score.
Reviews:
"If your looking for a good word game that's simple to use with no frills then buy this. I love the simplicity of it and main reason for my purchase. Sometimes I want to play a quiet word game without all the glitz and noise and this one I can play peacefuly. I haven't any problems using it and find the words ok but you will find word variations in any word game. Tried the free version first before I decided. I recommend this to all. Nice game Peter!"
"It's on my first page. It's my favorite 'go to app.' Never get's old"
"This game is so fun I could play it all day"
"Thank you for the update, the game is now excellent. I don't know how you managed to control the difficulty level of word choices, but you've done it! We are on level 5 (out of 6) and the words are challenging but there's not a single obscure word (many games, including the two I mention next, have problems with words no one has ever heard or seen). My wife and I play this often, it's now our favorite word game, alongside of Wurdle (boggle) and Lexitron (anagrams)."
"Simple and so enjoyable! Well-designed. I'm very happy I found this."

Great App! Challenging anagram game!
I've always enjoyed anagram games since childhood. I particularly like this one for the following reasons:
(1) There is no time limit.
(2) You can choose a level of play; e.g., level 3 is only 'normal' words, - no fancy old English, or words you've never heard of in your whole life. You should know every one of the words at that level. (I've yet to score 100%, but I've come close, and groan at the easy words I missed.) Other anagram games have many of those words that you have never seen or heard before and it just becomes a wild guessing game, making up words. There are 6 levels in this game, and I'm sure level 6 recognizes all those obscure words if that's what you like.
Some changes I would like to see:
(1) A shake BUTTON. (My arthritic wrists have a bit of trouble shaking my iPhone.)
(2) Some kind of record keeping, - maybe the word, the date and the the percentage of the words you found in it.
I've been playing this one for weeks and am sure it will be my favorite word game for a very long time. Thanks for a great game!
Best app for word lovers
This game is everything the authors say it is. I find it great when waiting for anything or anyone -- like doctors. I also just play it whenever. Time passes too quickly which means it is an engaging game.
One problem is that it seems to lose some of the words I enter. When I find a good word I then enter it's variations depending on the letters I have. "Cute" is the most recent lost word. I found my variations but not the root in the list of words I entered.
Fix this and I'll go 5 stars!
