"I am seriously addicted to this game!! It's like scrabble mixed with a word search!!! I was up until 1am playing in bed!!! I feel like it's making me smarter!!!!! I'm learning so many new words!!!! I love Top Word!!!!"
-Lexi B.
How to play:
The timer is increased slightly when you spell words correctly and it fills up completely when you find 25%, 50% or 75% of the words in the puzzle or when you find the TOP WORD. Words comprised of one or two letters are ignored.
The player begins on Tier 1. Each tier has six goals. When all six goals have been met, you can advance to the next tier with six more challenging goals. On the main menu, tap on the goal tiles for more information about each goal. Speaking of the tiles on the main menu, there may be a secret hidden in them.
Tap the commence button to start a new game.
The game is over when time runs out. All words in the puzzle will be revealed and are color coded as follows:
red = missed word
green = found new word (first time)
white = found word that you found previously in another puzzle
yellow = hint word missed
If you're curious about the meaning of a word, you can tap on any word to bring up a dictionary with the word's definition.
Matches:
You can challenge up to three friends to a match (via Game Center). Each player will take their turn at a given puzzle. Players can wager Chicka-Pahs and the player with the highest score wins all Chicka-Pahs that were wagered.
There are two ways to initiate a match:
1) From main menu: This is a blind challenge. The player who begins the match doesn't see the puzzle until after they start the match.
2) From the game over screen: The player who initiates the match has already played the puzzle.
Supplemental:
Brings up additional menu items.
Game Center:
Allows you to view the world wide leader boards and achievements.

Wow! Awesome explosion effects! Love the font on the tiles! Gameplay's challengin'! Keep the fun goin'! I keep streaking those Chicka-pahs! No, seriously, great game. The guitar solos are an interesting *and welcome* motif. Just makes finding that one word ALL the more satisfying. YES! Rock and Roll! Though, I've found a few bugs. For one, after the 1st game on the iPad version, the white borders on the tiles are thicker. Also, I bought the “Letter Sound” pack. It was quirky and kinda funny…but I can't turn them off. The settings SAY they're off, but they're on in-game. Can you please fix these? Amazing otherwise.

Topword is a compellingly simple word game that will get you hooked and keep you coming back for more...and more...and more. The game presents you with a fixed set of letters that you can connect into words. It is surprising how many words can be found in a single game, and even more how easy it is to overlook words. You are in a race against the clock to find as many as you can, and you earn more time based on the length of words you find. With Game Center, you can challenge your friends to matches. The game even has its own currency, called Chicka pahs (you have to play it to understand it ), that you can wager in matches against friends. This game is a great diversion at the end of the day, or a great way to completely shift gears during a busy work day. It's so absorbing it takes your mind off of whatever project has your attention. Beyond entertainment, it will also enhance your vocabulary. The game allows you to look up definitions for words you find, or more likely, words you miss, after the game is over. Words with Friends better watch out. Such a fresh, simple but absorbing word game that draws you in like Topword does is destined for greatness. I can't get enough.
I wish there were 6 stars because that's how high I would rate this game! I have only been playing a couple days but I am totally hooked! It's a mix between scrabble, words w friends, crossword puzzles & a word search. Basically you are given a set of letters to work with. You have a certain amount of time to spell out as many words as you can, the more you spell, and the bigger the words, the more time you're given & the higher you move up in your score. What's really nice is there are no turns (something I despised about words w friends!) you don't have to wait a certain amount of time to take your turn, you can just open the app & play as much as you want! This game is great for exercising your brain! It's a not-so-guilty- guilty pleasure!! I love it!!
Finally a game I can play for either a minute or an hour based on whatever I am passing the time for and still completely enjoy! I reminds me of word jumbles when I was a kid but way more fun with time crunch, competing with friends, and the sound effects! And the dictionary is great so I can learn the words I miss!
Totally addicted after 1 hr of playing. This is great practice for my scrabble playing too. Well done. Thanks.
Totally addicting and a great brain teaser. The guitar sounds and fireworks are a lot of fun!
Really great game - fun to play alone and work on the vocabulary or to do challenges with friends. Perfect casual game for all players.
This is a great go-to game for when you need to kill a minute or two. It's addictive and keeps you sharp. One of the most played games on my phone.
Such fun! Unfortunately, I am not doing anything else anymore. This slide-your-finger word game is addictive. Love the badges you can win, the music, and that you get better as you play.
