Hi Everyone!
I'd like to tell you a little bit about the MOXIE game.
First of all, it's a word game that's DIFFERENT from anything else you'llfind on the iPhone App Store, and that's by design. We were tired of seeing thesame word game themes recycled over and over again...anagrams, Boggle, wordfinds, and stuff like that. We wanted to make something truly unique, and Ithink we've succeeded.
Here are some qualities that I think make Moxie truly special:
* NO PRESSURE. Moxie is not arace. There's no clock. You can go as fast or as slow as you like.
* QUICK TO PLAY. The averagegame of Moxie takes less than 5 minutes.
* QUICK TO LEARN. Moxie only hasa few simple rules, and we've even included a short video to show you how toplay.
* ERGONOMIC. Are you tiredof tiny little hard-to-press buttons and screens you can hardly read? The Moxieboard is simple, clear, and direct...and you can actually see the buttonswithout your bifocals.
* REWARDS STRATEGIC THINKING. You don't needa vocabulary the size Webster's dictionary to score well. Sure, it helps toknow a lot of words, but good old-fashioned strategy will get you a lotfarther.
* WHOLESOME. That'sright Moxie is just good clean fun. There's no crashing into anything and nokilling anything. Why even your Mom will enjoy playing Moxie. I know mine does.In fact she helped invent the game!
Moxie is the word game guaranteed to please. Play once game and you'll behooked. If you're good maybe you'll even get the high score.
Howto play Moxie:
You start with a hand of 52 letters that you go through"Solitaire" style. Place each letter on the board or"Pass". If you "Pass" you can't go back to that letter.
Youscore points by:
1. Making unique words with theletters
2. Transforming your words intoother words by adding and replacing letters. For example: "TIN"becomes "TINE" which becomes "TILE" which becomes"TILED" and so on.
3. Spelling special "Moxiewords" for bonus points
Once you spell a word and start transforming it into other words, don'tbreak the word chain! That's a "Twaddle" and you'll lose points.
There's no time limit and while it helps to know a lot of words, Moxiewill more greatly reward those who like to think strategically.
