A DS version of a word jumbling game.

Installation

  1. Download and extract file
  2. DLDI patch .nds file and copy it to the root directory of the card

User guide

Can you unscramble the given letters to make as many words as possible and reveal the mystery word?

Time Attack A - Rearrange all the characters to form the mystery word. This will unlock the next level - but remember you're against the clock.

Time Attack B - Find the required number of words to progress to the next level.

Endless - No clock - take it at our own pace.

Challenge 1 - Time Attack A on a specific word.

Challenge 2 - Endless on a specific word.

Each game mode can be played with three difficulty levels: easy (6 letter words) normal (7 letter words) and hard (8 letter words).
