REVIEWS
"Honestly when I first saw this game I didn’t think it sounded very exciting, but from the moment I installed it I’ve found it seriously addictive. It’s a lot like a favorite savory snack you can never have just one of. I find myself continually saying ‘just one more try’ – sometimes to make up for a bad score, sometimes to try to beat a particularly good score, but I’m always wanting to have another crack at it. I also enjoy Wordish because it’s the ultimate gap-filler sort of game on the iPad. Because it’s so fast and easy to play, it’s a great time killer during a commercial break while watching TV or when ou’re waiting for a meal to finish cooking or just about any time you’ve got a free minute or two." - iPad Insight

Would give this game 5stars if it would rotate on ipad. A fix would be nice.
Fun quick word making game. The concept of challenges and working with the same letters is solid. Id prefer GameCenter to the twitter / Facebook / email integration. Its flawed in that you can preview the letters you are getting by examining the links. If this data was encrypted or kept on a server it would be better, as it is, you cant be sure your opponents didnt cheat!
Although extremely simple, this game is highly addictive. Creating challenges through Twitter and Facebook is a clever touch. You can also challenge people directly by email – havent seen that before.
Theres not enough game here. Theres no record of previous scores or an increase in difficulty. These improvements are needed for the game that you charge for.
