Very fun! Very fun!

I really like this game a lot, but as stated previously, the letters are somewhat hard to read against a light background. Especially with the letters being translucent. Drop the fancy background we can't really seem to see anyway. Also gameplay is a little to difficult to be to early in the game. Several times I found myself stuck being overwhelmed by monsters, just because I needed to shuffle the letters around. Other than that, a great game and a different twist on the old word routine. Enjoy!

Enjoyable once you work out all the tricks

If you're into Word Games, this is an excellent app to download. The basics of the game are simple - create words from adjacent hexagons - but where it gets even better is as you get further into the game, and you earn enough gems to buy spells. When you have the higher spells the game becomes more enjoyable because it's easier to get larger words. Some of the game may seem cryptic at first, and it would be nice if it got more difficult the further on you went, but this is well worth the very modest fee.

I like this game a lot, but the letters can be too hard to read against the background. There needs to be stronger contrast.

Great Game! Great Game!

Even though I'm a professional writer and good with words, and even though I enjoy board and computer games, I've never really cared for word games such as Scrabble, Boggle, etc. The only reason I tried Magic Words Arcanum is that it billed itself as an RPG. Despite the "spells" aspect, I don't really view Arcanum as an RPG; nonetheless, I love the game and have found it to be as addictive as any pastime I've put on my iPhone. I especially enjoy the mental flexibility required in finding words that follow tortuous paths and/or require the use of spells to turn hidden possibilities into reality; and, though I don't normally have a competitive personality, I love the challenge of keeping myself high on the "leaders board."

Fun game Fun game

This game really puts your strategy skills to the test. I just wish it wasn't so hard to get the more powerful magic spells. It'd be nice if there was some music. It's still great the way it is though. Definitely worth the buy.
