The word-building game Dabble HD (4.5/5 stars, all ages) is today’s Amazon Free App of the Day. From Amazon:
Dabble, the hottest new word game for Android smartphones — has come to the tablet! This HD edition is optimized for display on 7″ tablets. Now, you can play the fast-thinking game that everyone is talking about on an Android smartphone or tablet device. From the crisp and clear high-definition graphics to the addicting game-play, you won’t want to put Dabble HD down.
Think Fast
Dabble HD is the kind of game that is as simple as it is challenging. It rewards players with quick wits, a large vocabulary, and perfect spelling. You have to be on your toes, since the goal of the game is to spell out five separate words with just 20 letters as quickly as possible. The trick is that the five words must be comprised of a two-letter, three-letter, four-letter, five-letter, and six-letter word. You don’t have to complete all five words to score, just try your best. But remember, the more words you complete, and the quicker you do it, the higher your score.
Move Letters and Form Words
Game-play is easy! At the beginning, you will see 20 tiles, each with a letter and a point value. The tiles are already configured in rows, and all you have to do is drag and drop the letters to form words. As you do, the tiles turn blue and you gain points. Form all five words within five minutes or less to win. If you get stuck, you can tap the Solve button to see the solution. If you get really stuck, you can tap the restart button for a new game board.
Earn Badges and Awards
When you first launch Dabble HD, you can enter your name to track your best times and scores. If you share your device with family or friends, you can add up to four additional users, and change users during the first 30 seconds of the game. As you play, you’ll have the chance to earn badges for win streaks, fast times, and high scores. You can also view your top five high scores overall and for longest win streaks and fastest times. Challenge yourself to unlock all of the badges and beat your top scores!
