You can also find a single word with 3-,4-,5-, and 6- letters for additional points. After finding the target 7-letter word, either the game ends or you can go back to find the shorter words. Daily Word is a nice idea in concept, but it really does force you to wait exactly 24 hours or more before playing again. It really should let players return any time the next calendar day rather than expecting us to remember or guess what time we played the previous day. It’s tough to care about TextTwist 2 games for a number of reasons. Unlike Boggle or the indie Scrabble clones I mentioned earlier, there’s no multiplayer, which would provide an incentive to care about the game’s outcome. It’s incredibly easy to cheat using an anagram website like this one. Sure, it takes the sport out, but at least you’re not ruining anyone else’s experience since it only affects you.Ī single player anagram game could still work, but it needs a good progression system – something for players to work toward and care about. Here players can unlock a total of 10 Fun Facts, one for every 100 words they spell. Ten pieces of trivia that are highly spread out is not particularly compelling – I could hop online and find 50 or 100 interesting facts with far, far less effort.
The only other metagame element is trying to find 5,000 words for an Achievement, which is both laborious and boring. Overarching elements aside, even individual games are just dull, dull, dull. Each round of just about every game type is identical to the one before it except for the assortment of letters players receive. Letter Mania at least gets harder each round, but even then, reaching round three or five is no more fun than just starting a new game. Where’s the sense of adventure? Maybe the developers should have made a game about something exciting like lion taming, or at least chartered accountancy. The other element contributing to TextTwist 2’s massive boringness is the presentation.
