Lexiblox is a totally unique word game that was thoughtfully handcrafted by indie developer Brian Krause. Each level includes 10 words which must be discovered by rotating the Lexiblox left and right with swipes. Each combination of letters spells one word and one word only. When you think you’ve found the correct word, check it with a tap. If it’s correct, you’ll move on to the next. There’s no penalty for checking words. Your score is based on how long you spend on each puzzle, how many times you rotate the Lexiblox, and how many hints you use. Lexiblox includes 32 levels in all, totaling hundreds of challenging word puzzles.
