PLAYER REVIEWS:

"Great word game for those who love word games like I do. I especially like the thoughtfulness to include specific sound effects for specific types of words. Easy to learn and hard to stop playing." - Jeff M.

"I was completely addicted to WordUp on my PC -- great job with the iPhone version!! If you love word games, get this one -- you will not be able to stop playing it. Oh, and the graphics are great!!!" - Martpie

"Could be addicting but the crashes make it frustrating...that and my wife has 10000 points more than me!" - FBU

( Skunk Studios: sorry about the crashes in the old version! We've upgraded it majorly - the new version should crash much less! )

Create words by connecting the letters in the grid then hit the Word Up button to bank it. New letters will drop in to refill the board.
