Figure yourself a wordsmith? Show off your craft in Words Collide. In this fun cooperative game, you spell out words by arranging your letters on the centre board, adding to letters from the previous round. The lengthier the spelling, the more points you’ll score, and the more coins you’ll scoop up for game-boosting upgrades.

What we love: Wowing friends with our word-building prowess! Begin by sharpening your skills in Singleplayer mode (and by checking out the Tutorials), then jump over to Cooperative mode to invite fellow word-game aficionados to play, or to pit yourself against players from around the world.

Quick tip: If you need a hint, reveal a playable word by tapping the magnifying glass in the top left corner. Still stumped? Tap the Full Reveal button to take a sneaky peak at all of the possible word combinations (revealed after you watch an ad).

Meet the creator: Australian indie developer Lamington Games has a mission to create “high-quality, engaging and quirkily mechanical games”. Words Collide is the follow-up to the studio’s first release, Super Drop Land.
