Scramble is a new finger friendly Boggle game for Windows Mobile users, with a few changes of course. Its one of the many Windows Mobile App developed by Herms’s Software.
We were given a copy of the app to be reviewed and today we look a closer look at the game. After you install the game, the link to launch is placed in the Games folder. Once launched the game shows you your high score. You can either start a new game or change the settings.
Once the game start, the clock only begins to count down after you select the first alphabet. You can choose any 3,4,5,6 lettered word. To select a word, you can either drag your finger over several letters or click on one letter at a time. Once you add a word , its shown on the top and you have an option to add it or discard it. When you drag your finger over several letters to add a word it is automatically added. If the entered word is not valid you get negative points. If you try and add a word that was already accepted you loose points. This game is very addictive if you are in to these sort of games.
You can play the game in a 4×4 or 5×5 grid. The game also has 2 modes, the normal mode where you find all the words you can find in the selected time ( 3, 4 or 5 mins ) or there is the word searcher mode where you can choose to find 30, 40 or 50 words in the given time. For every 10 words that you find, there is a 10 second bonus to keep you going. The game also alerts you by a sound notification when the time is about to run out.
For the asking price of $0.99 this game is a must have. It has lot of replay potential. Any word puzzle lovers will love this game.

Have just downloaded this to my HTC HD2 running WM 6.5 – and it doesn't work – shame as I would like to have tried it.
Will it be updated to run with the later software please?
