I like this game, but it could be more polished.

Letter Grid puts the player in a meditative, zen-infused alternate universe, in which Crossword is played with a different set of rules.
In Letter Grid, the player create words with a small, finite set of letters, on criss-crossing letter boxes. All words formed by consecutive boxes, whether horizontally or vertically, must be valid English words. They can be ANY words you can create with the set of letters. However, to tease the player, hints for several of the words (not all, and positions not indicated) of each level are bundled together into one clever riddle.
Can you solve the riddles and unleash the words?
Other features:

- Purchase ads-free via In-App Purchase to unlock 10 more bonus levels in the current release. ALL future levels are available for free thereafter.
- 17 minutes of soothing, meditative music to calm your soul and help your mind transcend.

hi strongbad, the iOS and google play version are smoother due to the use of GPU and the support of binary file reading, so do try one of them :).
Nice Animations, relaxing sound.
But its not too new, so 3/5 Stars :)

hi solzucht, Letter Grid is an original idea because there isn't another game that plays like it.
thanks for the comment!
Very nice game, but left clicking more than too frequently assumes a drag-action to a contentless off-screen zone that can be scrolled to, inhibiting proper gameplay.
ExK responds:
thank you tribal for your feedback. however, this is the firs time I hear a player having issue with tile-clicking being interpreted as drag action. perhaps the experience is better on a mobile device. Do check out the iOS or Android version of Letter Grid if you're interested.
Good idea, original take on the crossword. I think the ghostly orange letters floating in the background are distracting, though. The interface is also a bit rough: when a word is completed, it takes longer than it should for the confirmation (is it researching an online dict?), and a button to clear the board would also help. Good game, though!
ExK responds:
hi rabbit, yes, as the dictionary is large, the word searching takes sometime. It's made worse by the fact that HTML5 doesn't support binary search. If you enjoy Letter Grid, please check out the iOS version on iTunes, or the Android version on Google Play or Amazon. They offer native experience, and there is absolutely no noticeable word search time.
Thank you!
