If any of the letters make it to the top row, it's game over. * FOUR 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.

    A must-buy for word fiends, SpellTower is an uncommonly attractive and thoughtfully designed puzzler.

    It might not have the high-power graphics and visualizations used for other word apps, but it doesn't need to. Either way, it's addicting.
