<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><a href='http://www.imore.com/best-ios-word-games' title="The best word games for iPhone and iPad"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large_wm_brw/public/field/image/2015/02/new-jessie-char-words-with-friends-cheating.JPG?itok=8wHbGWUm' />[/url]</p> <p class="intro">Hone your grammar and spelling skills in this collection of iOS word games.</p> <p>Whether you're an anagram master, a spelling sensation, or a grammar wizard, you'll find something to pique your curiosity in these iOS games (http://www.imore.com/iOS-games) that reward those gifted at language arts. Many of these games even include support for the Apple Watch, in case you want to play with words on the go.</p> <!--break--> <h2>1. Alphabear</h2> <div class="video"><div class="video_iframe"><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/R4_XkvQCOGc?rel=0&autoplay=0&wmode=opaque&controls=2&autohide=1&showinfo=0" width="627" height="353" class="video-filter video-youtube vf-r4xkvqcogc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></div></div> <!--/video--> <p>You've probably seen the adorable fuzzy faces of Alphabear splashed across all of your social media platforms lately, but you may not know that the game itself is actually a tricky Boggle-like word game. It's free, but you can kick the developer $5 for "infinite honey" if you don't want to wait around to unlock more levels.</p> <ul><li>Free - <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/alphabear-word-puzzle-game/id930003798?mt=8&at=10l3Vy&ct=d_im" title="" rel="nofollow">Download now[/url]</li> </ul><h2>2. Sleep Furiously</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/best-ios-word-games' title="The best word games for iPhone and iPad"><img src='(http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/05/Sleep-Furiously-screenshot.PNG)?itok=CINWoxoW' />[/url]</p> <p>Sleep Furiously game generates a cloud of words that the player must connect into a grammatical sentence, no matter how nonsensical; the resultant word strings are even better than my favorite dream memories. The screenshot above features my own favorite in-game creation.</p> <ul><li>$2.99 - <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sleep-furiously/id984724063?mt=8&at=10l3Vy&ct=d_im" title="" rel="nofollow">Order now[/url]</li> </ul><h2>3. Words With Friends</h2> <div class="video"><div class="video_iframe"><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/RuOPR1XE-tw?rel=0&autoplay=0&wmode=opaque&controls=2&autohide=1&showinfo=0" width="627" height="353" class="video-filter video-youtube vf-ruopr1xetw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></div></div> <!--/video--> <p>This old standard is pretty much Scrabble, but without the price tag that comes with the official branding. Every word game aficionado already knows about this game, but it's been a while since we all got Words With Friends fever, so you may not know that the game now has Apple Watch support.</p> <ul><li>Free- <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/words-with-friends/id804379658?mt=8&at=10l3Vy&ct=d_im" title="" rel="nofollow">Download now[/url]</li> </ul><h2>4. Letterpad</h2> <div class="video"><div class="video_iframe"><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/lZPNUvEzc6c?rel=0&autoplay=0&wmode=opaque&controls=2&autohide=1&showinfo=0" width="627" height="353" class="video-filter video-youtube vf-lzpnuvezc6c" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></div></div> <!--/video--> <p>Anagram games abound in the iOS space, but Letterpad is one of the best, featuring a clean design, user-created puzzles, and even Apple Watch support.</p> <ul><li>Free - <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/letterpad-free-word-puzzles/id943235780?mt=8&at=10l3Vy&ct=d_im" title="" rel="nofollow">Download now[/url]</li> </ul><h2>5. Moxie</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/best-ios-word-games' title="The best word games for iPhone and iPad"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/07/Moxie_iOS_screenshot.PNG?itok=T86-T_xx' />[/url]</p> <p>You'll want to watch Moxie's short tutorial video before you play, given that it's a completely original word game — unlike the plethora of copy-cats and knock-offs in the word gaming world. This game encourages you to fine-tune your memory skills when it comes to spelling and word recognition; it requires you to place one letter per round to build up words or modify existing words, piece by piece.</p> <ul><li>Free - <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/moxie-classic/id309662269?mt=8&at=10l3Vy&ct=d_im" title="" rel="nofollow">Download now[/url]</li> </ul><h2>Your favorites?</h2> <p>Which word games are your favorites, be they old standards like Crosswords or new indie sensations?
