App of the Week: Word Hunt – Word Search

Creating a new standard for digital word puzzles, the Corona-built Word Hunt – Word Search combines the principles of a classic game, with awesome steampunk graphics that pop right off the screen.

For adventurous wordsmiths, Word Hunt – Word Search features over 50 categories of words, ranging from sports, to world currencies to Shakespeare. The game provides three levels of difficulty, with harder levels presenting more rows, columns and words to discover. My favorite element of the game was having the ability to build my own Word Hunt list. After creating a “dogs” category, I customized my list by adding over a dozen dog breeds that I then uncovered in a maze of letters.
