Enjoy a brand new word game experience with WordHue.

Fans of classic word games who are searching for something a little different.

$0.99 $0.99
Why we picked this?

WordHue utilizes classic word game mechanics and gives them a colorful twist. You’re presented with a five-by-five letter tile grid. The letter tiles start off as white, and every time you create a valid word they’ll change color. The first color change will match the color meter at the bottom. Try to create words using the matching tiles in order to earn more turns or time. Every time you use a letter tile, its value will increase. Do your best to avoid creating three letter words as they’ll block out the letter tiles for a short period of time. The game includes two modes, daily challenges, and unlockable color schemes.

You’re tired of the same old word games. The color matching mechanic will completely change the way you play.

You’re competitive. WordHue doesn’t contain any head-to-head gameplay options.
