Wordament

No matter how complex and enthralling modern video game can be , it is unlikely that they ever need to eclipse the humble appeal of WordSearch .

A hangover from the pages of newspapers and idle days back in primary school , WordSearch game stimulate the primary language part of our brains while tapping into a primitive , competitive impulse as we try to beat our friends and classmates .

Wordament - which is available in Windows Phones for some time - builds both elements by adding an interesting new twist on competitive WordSearch puzzle game : Xbox Live integration .

Wordament gameplay is as simple as it is a challenge . Every game is a two - minute - long affair where you have a grid of letters from where you have to create as many words as possible .


Like Scrabble , each letter has a point total assigned to it . Commonly used letters as vowels and consonants ubiquitous as S , L , R , and D are worth one or two points while rarer letters ( W , V , and T ) are worth far more .

Words in Wordament was created by tracing a route from one letter to another in any direction available to the grid of the game . It creates a fun and fast -speed search elements that have been scrambling to find the words between the letters .

The real hook Wordament , however , is not found in its familiar gameplay , but rather to his competitive nature .

Every two minutes the game was shared by players around the world , to compete against each other to earn the top ranking . Because Wordament supports full Xbox Live integration , you can easily log in and compete against your friends more chatty Xbox .

Unfortunately, the shared - board Wordament making an online gameplay - just the game , which is pretty annoying if you are in an area with no reception or traveling by plane .

Worse yet , since the game has always been - live connection so its - and - drain your battery life very quickly after a few rounds , which is rather tricky for such a small and simple game .

Still, Wordament plays brilliantly with controls that are quick and easy to understand . It delivers exactly what it promises - simple fun WordSearch . And no silly to distract you from the gameplay , as had other recent games Writer words like boom .
