[b]rosette and words[/b] is a simple but elegant crossword/word-finding game. there are [b]32 timed levels[/b], 3 unlocked at a time, each with 3 stages, and if you quit, next time it'll continue on whichever stage you left, which is excellent, and since [b]boards use random words from a huge dictionary[/b], every attempt will be different. diagonals are accepted, colored letters can be used more than once, and each word earns a bit of extra time. collected letters serve as currency to buy various hints. completing 16 levels unlocks [b]relaxed mode[/b]. no timer there, but one type of hint can still be used, and board size can be set as well. initially it's only between 6x6 and 10x10, but as soon as you run into a bigger one in the 'campaign', it unlocks in relaxed, up to 15x15. rosettes (animated flower-like drawings) show up after each stage, but they can't be skipped with a single click, only sped up a little. the [b]rosette editor[/b] unlocks after 8 levels, where you can mix and...
Pretty straight forward word find game. It's good, I like it but I don't like the long grind they added to finish acheivements. Make bigger word finds or do something original but don't just make it a grind to make it challanging. Other than that I liked it.
Meh. Lots of invented words. Alternately, there are lots of words from foreign languages, which would normally be fine but they are not from foreign languages I know or are commonly used loan words in English. However, I really think most of the words are just random collections of characters. If you just want to look for "words" that aren't real words, then this game is fine. It would be better if the words are from a foreign language, the game indicated what language they were from and kept words from the same language together. This way, one could learn new vocabulary. As it is, I don't recommend it.
A simple and fun word search game. Games can be played in timed or relaxed modes - both which are a lot of fun! There have been a few bugs, but the developers are very responsive and keen to address things as they come up. Would like to see definitions for the words in-game. Overall, if you like word searches, I'd recommend giving this game a try!
[b]5/10[/b] Basic Word Search trying to be artsy. [b]What is it:[/b] A Word Search game, with randomly generated puzzles of varying sizes, and parametric curves as the reward for finishing each level. Word Search in itself is a basic game, something good for children to learn new words, spelling, observation skills... So there isn't much to demand of this type of game, yet it felt disappointing. First, the words to search are too obscure, short 3-4 letter words like cam, dui, swy, rax, firk, and then some longer words of equal obscurity, like haleru, nepits, skellochs, rhinoliths, which, as far as my internet searches turned up, are probably real words, but either archaic, very technical, foreign, proper names, or all of these. Which isn't necessarily bad, but then I would really have liked to have a definition for them. Second, the campaign mode is timed. For almost all of the levels that wasn't an issue for me, but I have an innate skill for noticing words, and a lot of practice...
It doesn't appear that many people on Steam have played this game, but, at its core, it is a word search game. Each time you complete a word search stage in Timed mode, you make part of a rosette, and you end up with a full rosette after you complete each of the three word search stages that comprise the parts of each rosette. The rosettes can be combined using an editor (once you unlock it), and this gives you the ability to create a variety of different aesthetic designs. You have the ability as you progress in the game to play in Relaxed mode, which is entirely word searches of different board sizes (your choice), and it is relaxed as opposed to being under a time limit. I highly recommend this game if you enjoy word searches, and it is well worth the $2.99 (plus whatever the tax is in your region) in USD. The music is relaxing and unobtrusive for the most part, and it is a nice complement to the game as a whole. This is not a disparaging comment, but I didn't need the additio...
A lovely little wordsearch game. I was initially impressed by the options. Not only music and graphics resolution, but different colours for the letter tiles and - fantastically! - a dark background option. A really great addition that I wish more games had. The controls are easy and explained. Click and drag the words you need to find which are in a list on the left of the screen. Various stages unlock more fractals. (Wish I could remember the name of those plastic things you used to have as a kid which enabled you to draw these by hand.) Unlock so many levels and you get an editor where you can mix them. I didn't find the time limit a problem (I unlocked the editor, I'm not sure about higher levels.) A nice game with which to relax. Well worth the money.
Select the first level, words are RAS, KEX and MOTU Start again, words are LAM, TYTE and WOT Are you kidding me? Using a source dictionary this 'generous' really hurts the game.
It's pretty cheap, especially during sales. It's a simple game with a rather satisfying interface. Good for a few hours of fun and thinking.
