Jenga vs Word Connect
Jenga
Jenga is the only Jenga-type game on the mobile market and it's not surprising to see why. From creating racing games with realistic motion physics to creating Jenga with accurate, close-to-life gravitational physics and stability, NaturalMotion is possibly the only mobile-specific company that is able to create a realistic digital version of the timeless crowd-favorite game, complete with beautifully rendered environment.The game also has a multiplayer mode that'll see you competing with friends to see who'll topple the tower of blocks first. Scores you earn from playing are also listed on the leaderboard - that is if the scores are high enough - giving you some amount of bragging rights if you happen to rank near or at the top. Not to mention, you can even compare the heights of your Jenga blocks with your friends' while you're still playing a game!
There are, however, some issues with the game, but overall, Jenga is still the only mobile version of the favorite pastime of many and if you suddenly had a craving for such a game, you'll have nohere to turn except to this one... unless you own a physical version of the game, then by all means, invite some friends over and have some fun!
Word Connect
Word Connect follows in the successful word puzzle game formula used by many other games like Word Cookies and even Wordscapes... though, it's a lot more similar to Word Cookies than Wordscapes per se. The gameplay is incredibly fun and addictive and the controls are easy to learn as well - how hard can it be to swipe letters to form words, right? The game also boasts of having over 2500 levels - more to come! - and there's an exciting new daily challenge for you every day you log in. Hit a snag in the game? You can use hints or you can share the puzzle with your family and friends on Facebook and ask for help. Any extra and valid words you find will be rewarded as well!The game is not at all competitive so you can take your time looking for the words needed to complete a level. Best yet, the game is powered by the Oxford Dictionary so you can be sure that the English words you know, even including many others that you might not, will definitely be in the game.
Word Connect may not be innovative in any sense since it's basically a clone of Word Cookies, but if you're looking for the closest alternative to a game like Word Cookies, you may find this game a suitable choice. The game is both phone- and tablet-friendly and is available on iOS and Android.
