Show HN: I made a word building game supporting anagrams and one handed use

6•busymom0•10h ago
Hi everyone,

Wanted to share a game I built. It's called Unscramble! and I believe it's the simplest word building game.

Rules: You get a few letters on screen. You need to make one word with all the letters. Tap a letter to select. Tap again to deselect. Faster you go, better you score.

If you enter anagrams of the word it's looking for, it gives you extra points. If you are stuck, you can either "Ask Friend" or get Hint.

You get extra points for getting the word fast but you don't get penalized for taking too long.

I believe the simplicity of the game along with big touch buttons makes it perfect for one handed use.

There's 6 difficulty levels in the game, and settings for things like toggling the timer, relaxing background music, sound effects, haptic feedback, removing the background animation.

If you want to try:

Would love to hear feedback to improve it.
