5. WordSnake…Words Without Borders By Gold Brothers Entertainment LLC

6. Moxie By Blue Ox Technologies Ltd

Moxie is all about transforming words into new words. 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.

You score points by:

1. Making unique words with the letters
2. Transforming your words into other words by adding and replacing letters. For example: “TIN” becomes “TINE” which becomes “TILE” which becomes “TILED” and so on.
3. Spelling special “Moxie words” for bonus points

Once you spell a word and start transforming it into other words, don’t break 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, Moxie will more greatly reward those who like to think strategically.
