What are the best online word games?

Word Wipe

Word Wipe is developed byGreat Day Games and can be really challenging if you’re not focused.

You are given a board full of scrambled letters and you have to join adjacent letters to create words, andclear as many rows as you can. The more letters you join, the higher your score gets.

You might feel a bit time-pressured, tough. You can turn off sound to get fully immersed in thegame.

Letter Logic

This is a classic crossword game, with a very plain design, but a good way to unwind and expand on your vocabulary.

There’s no time limit, but you have a very discreet clock in the left corn of the board just to remind you how time flies. And believe us, it does, because it’s not that easy to complete thegame.

Scramble Words

Scramble Wordsby AARP is an addictive word game in which you haveto unscramble a bunch of 5 letters to make as many words as you can in the allotted time.

While it can completely draw you in, the background music can be a little annoying at times. This is also why after a while, thegamecan get tedious.

Word Zen

Word Zen is agamedeveloped byBig Fish Games, in which you are given a board full of letters that you have to combine to create words.

As expected, if you create longer words, you get more points, and you complete thegamefaster. But, as you eliminate letters, it gets harder to also find words.

In the full version of thegame, you get 4 levels of difficulty and over 100 levels to get to.

An interesting detail is that you can play this with family and friends, creating separate profiles to compete against each other.

It’s a very simplegamethat can get boring after a short while, but nevertheless a good option to take your mind off more serious business.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time).

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.

Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
