Word Rotation Description |
|
| |
Words are formed by rotating the tiles until they match the clues. Check for the latest word lists.
The goal of Word Rotation is to form words from a set of rotatable tiles.
Each tile contains two to five single letters of which only one is on top.
Words are formed horizontally and vertically by rotating tiles until valid words are formed.
You have a time limit and a maximum number of clicks to solve the puzzle.
You must solve each puzzle before time runs out and you run out of clicks.
Depending on the mode, the computer will randomly select a group of target words, mix them with additional letters and scramble the letters into the playing area.
In Classic Rotation, you must find a set of predefined words using clues or definitions. Find all the hidden words to complete the puzzle (before your time and number of clicks run out).
In Free-For-All (FFA) mode, you must make up your own valid words to complete the puzzle.
Variations allow for a progressive game, whereby you start at a lower difficulty level and progress through increasingly more difficult challenges.
Factors that control challenges include size of playing area, type of clues, word lengths, revealing hidden letters, number of rotations, locking and automatic matching.
