QuickLook: On-Core Wordfind for iPhone

Picture 1

Alright – since right now we have to pay out of pocket for everything we review around here from the App Store (Apple fix this please) … sorry if you don’t see a lot of reviews coming out of the "pay-for" section. Unfortunately money isn’t growing on trees around my house, but if I end up buying something off of the App Store – you’re going to know – and you’re going to get 100% is it worth it knowledge.

So, lets get started looking at a nifty little word search game for the iPhone called Wordfind by On-Core. Now before we go any further … if you’re considering Wordfind you should also consider dropping an extra $3 and getting the On-Core Game Pack Vol. 1 which also includes Sudoku and a picture puzzle game. But for $1.99 …

You really can’t go wrong on this one. Let’s take a look:

Wordfind is a word search puzzle game that comes with an unlimited number of puzzles and three different difficulty levels. Obviously if you’ve looked up … Easy, Medium and Hard are the levels.

You’ll notice I said unlimited number of puzzles. According to the App Store page, the games are generated randomly – so theoretically you’re never going to play the same game twice. You’re also going to wonder if some of these words are actually words …

but so far all the ones I’ve looked up seem to be legit so I wouldn’t plan on seeing a who lot of simple to find and remember words.

Every game is timed – not timed as in you run out of time – but timed against your previous best for each particular level. Basically you end up racing yourself which adds an interesting dynamic.

So here’s the thing. I’ve been looking for a really good word search game since Mastersoft included it in Brain School a while back, and I’m happy to say that for $1.99 (as I said before) you can’t go wrong with this one. Sure hard could definitely be a bit harder, and easy is well – pretty easy … but its a quick time waster type of game and one I’m going to definitely recommend. I know I’ve gotten my $1.99 worth!
