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.
Word Crossy
Word Crossy , despite being simply another clone of Word Cookies, seem to have really hit it off with the wordies on the mobile platform. In fact, the game has risen so much in popularity that multiple word games using the "Word Crossy" name in their titles have popped up. You might find it a bit hard to find this actual original game among the noise, so here's a tip - this game was developed by Word Find.In terms of gameplay, you basically will be forming words needed to solve each level by simply swiping the letters to chain them up. There is no time limit whatsoever so you can take your time finding all the words. There is also free shuffles and useful hints that you can buy. The game boasts of having more than 300 levels for you to enjoy as well, but the most interesting part about all of this is that, purportedly, the difficulty of each puzzle changes intelligently based on your personal progress.
Visuals-wise, the game looks as great as Wordscapes, but it's good to note that Word Crossy offers players with varied background themes to choose from. This is a fun feature to have, and it does help break the monotony after you've been playing the game for hours on end.
Word Crossy may be a "clone" but it is still able to provide you with the kind of word puzzle game experience that you may have enjoyed from playing Word Cookies or any other of its clones.
