A challenging combination of word games and block busting.

What's New

Oh hey it's been a while!

This update is overdue. My day job was keeping me from the upkeep of Puzzlejuice, which is one of the reasons I left. I am now following my dream of being a completely independent game developer and, as my first act of independence I decided to give Puzzlejuice the update it deserves.

The upside of having that job is that it taught me how to be a much better programmer and I’ve managed to make Puzzlejuice a significantly more stable game. I’ve added achievements, iPhone 5 support, and—in an effort to continue being independent—I’ve added the ability to purchase powerups you haven’t earned yet. (This is totally optional, of course, and will not affect the balance of the game/leaderboards in any way.)

As always I’ve left out a “please rate this game!” popup because I do not want to interrupt your game experience—but taking a spare second to rate the game and voice your opinions is greatly appreciated!

New things:
+ Classic icon!
+ iPhone 5 support
+ Achievements!
+ New powerup menu
+ Purchasable powerups
+ No more music stutter
+ BIG STABILITY IMPROVEMENTS
+ A ton of bug fixes
+ Remember to rate the game

COME FOR THE PUZZLE. STAY FOR THE JUICE.

-----------------------

* HOW'S IT WORK? *

Multicolored BLOCKS constantly fall from the top of the screen and it’s up to you to arrange them. Once you complete a row with these blocks they will turn into LETTERS! The only way to clear out these blocks is to spell WORDS. Oh and also you can MATCH COLORS—that will make letters too.

* CORE MODE *

Test your endurance by seeing how long you can withstand the downpour. Complete objectives to unlock POWERUPS that will make you life easier as the game gets harder!

* ZEN MODE EXTREME *

Don't have a lot of time? Great! This mode is Zen because the blocks don't fall, so you don't have to worry about them piling to the top. This mode is EXTREME because you ONLY HAVE 90 SECONDS.

---------------------

"LOCAL" MULTIPLAYER: There's a lot to do in this game so it's great to play with friends! One of you can sort the blocks while the others look for words. Divide and CONQUER.

PICTURE-IN-PICTURE: We've packed the same experience into both the iPhone and iPad, but we know that phones are small and thumbs are big, so when you start spelling a word on the phone, a preview pops up to show the letters underneath your fingers!

GAME CENTER: Challenge your friends or try to become the world's best Puzzlejuice Master!

DICTIONARY: Spell a word and don't know what it means? No problem, double-tap on a word to look it up.

FOREIGN LANGUAGES: Play the game in English, Spanish, French, Italian, or Dutch!

COLORBLIND SUPPORT: We've got you covered.

--------------------

It’s not your mother’s word game; it has balls. Brass balls. Puzzlejuice is for closers.
