Whirly Word (Free)

Whirly Word (Free) App for iPhone
     This is a fun free boggle game.  I love word and vocabulary games, so I thought I would give this a try.
     It's fun though sometimes it doesn't have words in it;s list that can be made.  Also, sometimes you'll make a word in one puzzle that it accepts and when you try to make the same word in another puzzle, it wont accept it.  A bit frustrating...
     All in all it's very fun, but the free version has a relatively small list of puzzles.  So you'll find yourself on the same puzzle a few times within one game.  After playing a few times you'll have memorized all the puzzles and be stuck on a never ending game where you can't lose (As I am).  At this point it might be wise to just give in and buy the full version.
     If you've never played Boggle, here.s a basic run down of how this version works.  It has one six letter word.  It will add each letter that is in that word to your letter wheel.  You need to try to come up with as many words as you can, using only those letters.  Words as small as 3 letters, or as large as six letters.  Once you figure out the 6 letter word, you can pass to the next puzzle, whether or not you've found all of the other words.  If you are unable to figure out the 6 letter word, you can find as many small words as you can.  Once you find enough smaller words your score will be high enough to skip to the next puzzle without finding the big word.  Of course, ideally, you should find all of the possible word combinations before moving forward.
     If you want a spoiler here, this is a list of some of the six letter words, in case you get stuck.  Though you should try to figure it out for yourself.  Logger, Pretty, Cayman, Flukes, Laurel, Jingle, Falcon, Stormy, Belted, Breezy, Laughs, Whacky, Galaxy, Autumn, Domain, Hockey, Blotch,  Cowboy & Hinted.
