Gameplay

[edit]

The game overall is a mix of Boggle and crossword puzzles.[3] To solve the puzzle, the player must find every word using the letters that are located in the circle at the bottom of the screen.[4] There are anywhere from 3 to 7 letters in the circle, depending on the level being played. There are also bonus words, which the player can solve for extra coins.[2] The game currently contains 6,000 levels and 74,000 extra master levels that players can access after completing the first 6,000, which are repeated from the first 6,000.[5][6] Additionally, Wordscapes includes a 'Daily Puzzle' feature, offering players a new set of challenges each day to solve and gain additional rewards.[7]

Reception

[edit]

In 2018, Complex rated the game as one of the best free games that is available for the iPhone.[8]
