Pictoword vs Word Forward
Pictoword
Pictoword is a simple picture-based word puzzle game to get into but the puzzles can get quite tricky especially once you reached the later levels. How do you play? Well, unlike 4 Pics 1 Word which uses 4 pictures to let you guess the mystery word, this game only uses 2. You'll need to first name the action, scene or items in the pictures and then combine those 2 words into a single word. There may be some overlapped letters but generally you should be able to figure out the mystery word once you've named the 2 clues.Pictoword is also pretty social in the sense that like 4 Pics 1 Word, you can post a puzzle that has stumped you on your Facebook account and ask for help from your friends and family. So, if you're looking for an alternative game like 4 Pics 1 Word, Pictoword is a pretty nice choice.
Word Forward
Word Forward is a fairly challenging, word puzzle game whereby the goal is not to make the longest word or even to find the rarest ones – it is to clear the board of all letter tiles by strategically forming words with the letters given. The game also provides plenty of help if you need them, though if you want to get a Gold star for every level, you’ll want to avoid relying too much on the aid given.Although Word Forward doesn’t add much to one of the many existing formats of word games that are already out there, the stuff it does add manages to help the game stand out. With the variety of strategic tools that you can use, Word Forward feels so much more flexible as a puzzle game since there are many ways you can go about clearing all the letters and solving the puzzles. Plus, the price is perfect for the levels and playtime it can offer, and as a nice bonus, you can even choose which platform and device you prefer to play the game on!
