IsoWords [iPhone, Games]

IsoWords a word search game for iPhone and iPod touch wrapped onto a three dimensional cube. Find as many English words as you can in the 3x3x3 cube in the allotted time to rack up points. The only catch is that the third time a letter is used, its cube is removed and the letters inside are revealed.

If you are familiar with WordPop, IsoWords is not much different apart from the major 3D twist. I have been a fan of WordPop ever since the Palm version and IsoWords takes on the tested formula with a slight but very cool twist. Besides having to think about the words, you also need to consider how they stack up in 3d. You will need to avoid common isometric problem when boxes in front may appear in the same line as those behind as well as splitting, ie removing items in the middle first and creating clusters. A fun all around word puzzle wrapped in some pretty impressive UI.
