Description
HyperWords is a word game, brain teaser, and language power-tool for iPod Touch and iPhone. It includes a powerful SCRABBLE® Word look up, a Crossword Puzzle Solver, a vocabulary building Word Quiz, and a Reference Dictionary.Unlike other, similar applications, HyperWords does not require Internet access. Although you can link to useful websites to find additional information relating to a word, there's no need to do so. All the stuff you need is right there in your pocket!
Cheating at Scrabble has never been so much fun, and the word quiz is great fun too.
The word quiz presents you with a new word, often quite obscure, and asks you to work out which of three definitions fits the best. It's amazing how often you can work out the meaning from the roots of the word, or from the definition context.
The Puzzle Solver works for SCRABBLE®, and lots of other anagram puzzles. One favorite is the London Times' daily Polygon puzzle. Put in all of the letters that you want to include in the returned word list, capitalizing any letters that must be included in each word.
The Crossword Solver takes a pattern, like "m..t", or ".h..p" and up to three useful words from the crossword clue. The clue words are used to help work out which words are most likely to fit the crossword.
