Find and swipe (or tap!) words in 5 challenging modes. Make long words or use bonus tiles to clear extra letters from the screen!

Once you have it down, Challenge your friends via intense local multiplayer.

* WORDS + STRATEGY = AWESOME *
Pick your words wisely! As you work, more tiles rise from the bottom of the screen, and it'll take all of your lexicological wits and tactical know-how to keep them down. If any of the letters make it to the top row, it's game over.

* FIVE AMAZING MODES *
- TOWER MODE : No pressure here. Try and get the highest score possible out of 150 letters, eliminating small words to set up 7- and 8-letter blockbusters!

- PUZZLE MODE : Every word you make adds a new row of letters! Strategic word finding at its best.

- EXTREME PUZZLE MODE : Puzzle mode with the minimum word length cranked up. Experts only!

- RUSH MODE : Rows of letters build up over time. Find words as fast as you can, but be careful you don't back yourself into a corner!

- DEBATE MODE : Feeling good? Challenge your friends in this intense local multiplayer mode.

GAME CENTER leader boards and achievements for each mode and highest scoring word!

Freezes or crashes

Every day when I start the game it freezes and/or crashes multiple times. Fully updated iPad with super fast internet.

Crap

Twice now I am kicked out of a high score game for no reason and have to start all over.

Great app, just minor request

I’m loving all of the new features from the most recent updates, and I love playing every day, both the daily tower and the zen mode. Suggestion; during zen mode, the word list gets very long, and the only reason to visit the word list would be to look at the last few words. Please list the words in reverse order, so that I don’t have to scroll forever to see what a word means.

My daily fun go to app

I look forward to playing this game every tower always in tower mode.

Good when it works

Since the addition of the daily challenge, this freezes A LOT. I can't play the daily challenge most days.

Same Freeze Issue As Everyone Else, It Seems
Eldercar7

Shortly after booting up the game (approximately when the Game Center notification vanishes), SpellTower will freeze consistently if my device is able to establish an internet connection. Strangely, this only appears to be an issue during that exact point in time: disconnecting from the internet until the Game Center banner passes, and reconnecting immediately after, does not lead to a freeze. Because it is so easily surpassable, this bug does not make the game unplayable; however, I see how it can be a source of frustration to others, and it is a minor inconvenience to me as well. I adore the game otherwise, though.

Something happened and it’s now unstable
SherylCarrubba

Crashes... won’t even open sometimes, slows down and errant letters stay highlighted. Don’t know what happened or whether you just dint stay in sync with iOS upgrades. I’m unhappy. I used to play all the time. Not anymore!

Still freezy.

I want to love this game. But I have the same freeze on launch issue. What’s weird is that getting it unfrozen is A) different every time, and B) doesn’t care whether you’re connecting through home Wi-Fi or mobile data. I feel sure that the dev is working to fix the issue.
