I find the game as tough as the reviewer and am very used to being beaten by the many smarter players on the Wordabble leaderboard. In fact I've enjoyed using it as motivation to try and improve my own word skills, but when people put up scores that are clearly derived from cheating, it makes a mockery of the whole mode, seeing as the online leaderboard is the entire reason for playing it. So as a word of caution to anyone considering buying Wordabble, be aware that its most compelling mode has a serious problem that could take a lot of the fun out of it for you. If you can overlook this issue however, the gameplay itself is solid and enjoyable. I have to second the notion that the Puzzle of the Day mode is seriously flawed right now.

Funnily enough on the day I wrote this review a score was removed from the board, though on other days they stand. Don't get me wrong this is an addictive, challenging game, I was addicted to playing it but something more solid needs to be implemented. Puzzle of the day was the only mode I played, the other modes I haven't really ever gotten into that much. Another nice addition to this game would be sound. Not music but I feel a sound when you enter a letter or word would improve the game too. I agree that on some days action is taken but on others it is not so some consistency would be good.

This is an unfortunate situation but one I would expect in any popular competition, whether it be a game, a sweepstake, a lottery or raffle, etc -- people will always try to push limits and test rules. We've posted a pretty <a href="http://www.fusionbay.com/2008/09/08/wordabble-turns-one-month-old/" rel="nofollow">in-depth blog post on our website about the situation</a>. I hope anyone considering this game who is worried about abuse knows that we're serious about making this game enjoyable for EVERYONE and will do whatever that takes.

People are abusing this feature and using multiple devices to solve every word in a puzzle. It is really annoying and hopefully the developer listens to the feedback and gets rid of what is in effect a built in cheat. Before this update no one ever solved every single word in the daily puzzle. If they could fix that up again I would be a daily puzzle addict again, as for now I will have to get my word fix playing something else.
