With the recent conclusion of Pocket Gamer Connects in London, we had the opportunity to dive into some of the latest game releases, and one that particularly caught our attention was the word-based puzzle game, WordPix.

During the event, editor Dann Sullivan was particularly impressed by WordPix. The game's premise is straightforward yet engaging: players are shown a series of images and must deduce the associated word. For instance, an image of a scaly reptile might lead you to guess "Lizard," while a particular rodent could hint at "Capybara." While the concept isn't overly complex, it serves as an excellent mental exercise for players on the go.

WordPix offers a variety of game modes to keep the experience fresh and engaging. From solo and multiplayer options to "Beat the Boss" challenges where players can test their skills against the computer, there's something for everyone. Additionally, daily challenges such as "Word of the Day" and "Quote of the Day," along with a Sudoku mode, ensure a diverse range of puzzles to solve.

Pix your noseIt's clear why WordPix caught Dann's eye; it encapsulates everything you'd want in a puzzle game. The game features a simple, clean, and readable user interface and graphics, an accessible concept that increases in difficulty, and numerous variations to keep players engaged. As WordPix gears up for its global launch this year, we hope to see more additions from the developers to attract even more players. Currently, those in the US and UK can enjoy the game on iOS, while UK Android users can also join in on the fun.
