Word Twist

A word puzzle that slides, locks, fogs, and flips. Eight ways to twist your grid.

Word Twist is a pocket-sized word puzzle where the grid fights back. Slide rows and columns to line up hidden words, then try it again in a completely different mode. Each of the eight modes rewrites the rules of the same board. Daily challenges and streak tracking keep you coming back. A deep XP system keeps you climbing. And Speed Run is there for when you just want to see how fast you can go.
