Text Twist
For some reason Text Twist is quite a popular game. I must admit to having played quite a few games myself. It's not so much that I enjoy it but that I can't accept that I'm so useless at it. I like to think I'm fairly intelligent and that I have a reasonable grasp on the English language but this game proves that my vocabulary is somewhat lacking.
The idea of Text Twist is make as many words from the 6 letters you are given. It's a test of vocabulary as well as speed. The problem I have is that my vocabulary is limited and I'm slow. Sometimes I struggle with the 3 letter words which is pretty embarrassing. I keep playing because I know I can do better and it is easy to improve with practice. The same words come up again and again although I don't think they repeat the puzzles.
My lack of success is especially annoying when I know people who play Text Twist a lot and do really well at it. I know I should be able to do better than them. The worst thing is that this is probably a game for children. Children are playing it and yet I struggle with it. Maybe I just can't see the patterns, I don't know. Just to prove how useless I am, my highest score is 39,420. I'm sure that was a one off anyway.
I guess this game is popular because it is frustrating. You have to find the 6 letter word to keep going and sometimes you come so close but don't get it. I don't mind playing this occasionally but it is not a game I'd get addicted to.
