It'll Totally Tweak Your Brain

Is your brain up for the Text Twist challenge?

If I asked you, "How many words can you come up with, off the top of your head?" I'll bet you'd say "a lot," wouldn’t you?

Well then, it's high time you wrapped your brain around the totally twisted computer game where you make words from a set of random letters.

The Text Twist Game is education in disguise

Is this game addictive? Oh yeah. Entertaining? You betcha. Challenging? Yup. But you can also brush up on your spelling while having a great time, which makes it an ideal game for all ages.

Kids and foreign exchange students can improve their spelling (and probably don’t even realize it!) while writers and language buffs can exercise their word-recall skills.

Who would've thought a word game could be such fun?

The Text Twist Game is easy to play

You just click on letters to form a word, then click ENTER. If the word is in the game's dictionary, it shows up on the left of your screen. There are usually quite a few three, four and five letter words, and at least one six letter word.

If you get stuck, click the TWIST button. This rearranges the letters and helps your eyes (and brain) to see new words. There's no point penalty, so twist away!

Sometimes you even get lucky—twisting will form a word for you!

Helpful hints for playing Text Twist

You must get a six letter word to advance to the next round. In other words, if your brain doesn't cough up at least one word that uses all six letters, you're toast, i.e., game over. So focus on getting that word first, and then you can work on shorter words.

The game's dictionary is a bit lame, with some bizarre inconsistencies. Don’t sweat it, move on to finding the words they DO have.

The Text Twist Game is for one player, so if you lose, you can’t blame it on someone else, but you CAN berate your brain for not giving you the words you just know are rattling around in there.
