Description

Find A Word for Mac is a fun and challenging word game that will keep you entertained for hours. Whether you are a seasoned word game player or just looking for a new way to pass the time, Find A Word is the perfect choice.

The game is easy to play, but difficult to master. There are five turns in each game, and each turn lasts 30, 60 or 90 seconds – it's up to you to choose how long you want each turn to be. When you click the "Start Game" button, you will see three vowels and five consonants in the Letter Pot field. Your goal is simple: make as many words as possible from these letters.

To enter a word, simply type it into the Enter Your Word field and click on the "Enter" button (or press the Return key). To be accepted, your word must be made from the Letter Pot letters, be included in the Find A Word dictionary (no proper names, contractions or abbreviations), and be unique (not used before in this turn).

If you don't want to wait until the end of your turn, simply click on "Start Turn" button to move on quickly through all five turns. At any point during gameplay if needed there's an option of clearing all words and scoring by clicking on "End Game" button.

For every word that meets these criteria, you'll earn ten points plus one point for each letter in your word. If you manage to find 30 words before your turn ends early then congratulations! You'll receive an additional bonus of 200 points plus a time bonus based on how much unused time was left over at end of that particular round - either 1/10/100 points per unused second depending upon whether it was a 30/60/90 second round respectively.

At end of five turns total score will be compared with top ten scores available within High Scores table which can accessed anytime from menu bar. If your score ranks among top ten scores then congratulations again! Your name along with score achieved along with number of times when bonus was received during those rounds as well as Time per Turn will also get added into High Scores table.

One great feature about Find A Word is its ability for players themselves edit their name within High Scores window by double-clicking their own name entry followed by typing new name they wish use instead; once done editing just press Enter key afterwards!

Overall this game provides endless entertainment while also helping improve vocabulary skills through challenging gameplay experience where players need think creatively come up with unique words using given set letters only - so why not give it try today?

Review

Find A Word for Mac encourages you to create words out of scrambled letters and can keep you glued to your computer screen for hours. Though it features a rather plain design, this game offers multiple rounds and a top ten leaderboard, making it highly addictive. If you want to have fun on your Mac with an engaging word game, this one is certainly for you.

Find A Word for Mac's interface and graphics are rather dull, but the app compensates with its exciting gameplay. Once you choose between 90-, 60-, and 30-second rounds, you have to come up with as many words from the eight scrambled letters displayed as you can. Here's a tip: don't choose proper names and contractions because they won't score any points. You get only five turns to score. Correct words are displayed within the interface, and at the end of the rounds your score is calculated against the top ten previous scores to determine your ranking. A feature we liked is the ability to add additional words to the game's word list through the Word Maintenance option in the Menu Bar. The app gets a thumbs down for lacking an option for online competitive play.

Find A Word for Mac won't disappoint you, provided that you love word games. The interface and graphics aren't eye-candy, but the fun gameplay, the good performance, and the stability of the app make it a worthwhile download if you're looking for a gaming experience that will challenge your mind and possibly enrich your vocabulary.
