Avast ye me hearties! When I was a young lad I would hurry off to me house’s door steps every morning to get the daily newspaper delivered to us. Well, I don’t really read the news but I was after the word search and puzzle games. Although this bucko love sailing the seven seas, that’s one of the things I miss most since we don’t have newspapers delivered in our ship. Good thing I found this app called WordBubbles! by Apprope. Let me tell ye lads and lasses about it in this review.

The Classic Game You Loved with a Twist

WordBubbles! Review

WordBubbles! is a combination of word search and puzzle game but with a twist that makes it more interesting. These types of games are all time favorites and since they are well known, it makes this app familiar and easy to understand. You’ll know how to navigate and play it in an instant. It’s no rocket science, but it doesn’t mean that it’s not challenging enough to keep you thinking. There are dark circles at the bottom of the game board that contain the letters of the words you need to find. Colored circles on top have letters that you would connect in order to form words that could be the ones on the list that you’re tasked to find. There are hints that would help you if it gets tough, but they are limited. There’s an in-app purchase to get more hints, although this is completely optional. Instead of just crossing the letters in a horizontal, vertical or slanting line, you can cross out letters as long as they are adjacent to each other or you can connect them directly from the previous one.

Hundreds of Levels to Solve

WordBubbles! App

There are over 400 levels of puzzles to complete and the game is continuously being updated so you may get more levels in the future. The puzzles get more challenging as you play through the game. So although it’s repetitive, the difficulty level makes it interesting and it would keep you engaged.

Simple Graphics That Work

WordBubbles! doesn’t have over the top graphics. Instead, it has colorful circles, which contain the letters, and a light background, giving it a nice touch but still allowing your eyes to focus on the letters. This actually works in this type of game as any flashy design could distract you from finding the words.

The Good

WordBubbles! exercises the brain as it gets you thinking. It’s also educational as you get to improve your spelling and vocabulary. The game is easy to learn, yet challenging enough to keep you engaged. There are also hundreds of levels to play.

The Bad

There’s really no major flaw in this game as it’s responsive and it gives what it’s designed for. A small drawback maybe is that it’s not really something original. However, it still gives a twist to the popular classic favorites so it’s really not that bad.

The Verdict

If you love word search and puzzle games, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t download WordBubbles! It’s free, fun and interesting. You’ll learn how it’s played fast, but it would be challenging to pass the higher levels, especially without hints, which just makes it even more enjoyable.
