General

The idea of the game is to make words from the tiles that fall down from the top.

Game end

The game ends when you can't make any new word before one of the tiles touches the bottom of the game screen.

Game levels

Each level lasts for one minute. When the next level starts, the speed of the tiles falling down is increased. If level 7 is completed speed goes back to same as level 1, but requiring at least 3 letter long words. If level 14 is completed speed goes back to same as level 1, but requiring at least 4 letter long words. ...

Start level

There are three possible levels to start from.

Easy Level -1: Starts with 9 seconds between each tile row being added. Minimum word length is 2.
Medium Level 1: Starts with 7 seconds between each tile row being added. Minimum word length is 2.
Hard Level 10: Starts with 5 seconds between each tile row being added. Minimum word length is 3.
