A Fresh New Word Game

Nordersoft has announced the release of WordMesh 1.0 for iPhone and iPod touch devices. WordMesh is beautifully rendered in 3D and players simply flick the letters up or down in space to solve the WordMesh, which sounds easy but even with the letters in the right order it's harder than one would think.

Players work against the clock solving each puzzle in the given number of moves. They must stay focussed to solve the puzzles, whereupon each solution earns them points and time to continue playing. Each level has a target score, which when reached turns the difficulty up a notch. At the end of each level there is a special 'Sideways Shuffle' puzzle where some of the letters are swapped sideways - solving this earns the player double points.

The progressive hints system ensures that players will never get stuck but over-reliance on hints will use up their precious time. Taking too many moves to solve a puzzle will even make the words explode!


Progress through each game is logged and the player can review how well they're doing at any point. They can also review their words to find out the meanings of any they weren't familiar with. This is a feature that is especially useful for youngsters, who have a huge appetite for learning new words.

Four difficulty levels offer gameplay for all ages and levels and WordMesh is Scoreloop-enabled for social gaming. Players can compare their scores with other gamers worldwide and even challenge them directly.

Game Features:
* Original puzzle format - easy to learn, hard to master
* Online high score tables and buddy challenges
* Great looking 3D rendered graphics
* Large dictionary with definitions
* Progressive hints system
* Four levels of difficulty to suit all abilities and ages
* Any time quit-and-resume
* Punchy audio effects with integral volume control
* Listen to iPod music while playing

"A creative new word game!" - "All in all this game is a lot of fun, and quite addicting! If you're a big fan of word games like I am I think that you'll be pleasantly surprised at the unique feel that this game has. It's not every day that you find a game like that." - David Hayward, AppShouter Review


Pricing and Availability:
WordMesh 1.0 is $1.99 USD (£1.19, 1.59 Euro) and is available now on the App Store in the Games category.
