Playing is as simple as tapping letter tiles. Each puzzle is a grid of letters. Your job is to move the letters around until each row and column contains a word. Puzzles come in three sizes: 3x3, 4x4, and 5x5. They're a great brain teaser while you're waiting in line, sitting on the bus, or trying to avoid talking to your blind date. And while it would be cool if the game was more complex and needed a really long, robust description - it's really that easy. Pick a puzzle size and start swapping tiles. If you need a hint there are an unlimited number of them at your disposal (though trying to solve the puzzles without hints is pretty fun, too). So if you love word games, you might as well check out Letter Box. I mean, what else are you doing? Nothing. You're sitting looking at nerdy word games on your phone. So stop dilly dally-ing and download this game already! ## Letter Box Screenshots - [Screenshot 1](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple49/v4/41/a8/a9/41a8a9eb-0e19-4ee8-25d1-af3d9816917a/mzl.kqwnpsoh.png/640x960.png) - [Screenshot 2](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple49/v4/8a/f7/9e/8af79ed0-2e5b-c4cd-d07c-7935bd819f1d/mzl.wguzivvu.png/640x960.png) - [Screenshot 3](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple49/v4/9d/e3/d3/9de3d308-742e-2614-d8bc-ef16386b8469/mzl.hrstjpns.png/640x960.png) - [Screenshot 4](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple49/v4/7b/a7/bf/7ba7bf74-4fd7-75cc-1ebd-4905e6934287/mzl.vkedxpcv.png/640x960.png) - [Screenshot 5](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple49/v4/a2/38/2d/a2382daf-0fd7-4c54-253e-9eebeafd4160/mzl.wovrhzjb.png/640x960.png) ## Letter Box Rating Breakdown in United States - 5 stars: 8 (40%) - 4 stars: 8 (40%) - 3 stars: 1 (5%) - 2 stars: 0 (0%) - 1 stars: 3 (15%) ## Letter Box Reviews in United States ### ***** "Really nicely done🥰" This is a game I’ve looked at in the App Store a million times, but only just now downloaded. The developer is a favorite, Ross McNamara, whose ultraminimalist games Logic Grid Puzzles and Cryptograms have kept me continually entertained for the three years since I first downloaded them.❤️ While I always thought Letter Box 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘦𝘥 pretty, I didn’t think it’d hold my attention. I was wrong. By Day Two, when the offer popped up to buy all kajillion puzzles (current AND future, for a very reasonable 99¢), I was absolutely ready to own it. It’s clever and fun, and challenging right from the start. So many of the better, mega-level games take FOREVER to get challenging (WordBrain and Har•Mo•Ny, for example) — so this is one of my happiest things about Letter Box. The artwork is LOVELY, the sounds — DIVINE. It’s a wonder this is created by the same dev as Logic Grid Puzzles, which is aesthetically just a teensy step up from traditional pencil-and-paper versions (Ross’ highly amusing writing is what sells that game). The sounds remind me of those beautifully simple, soothing, metallic-mechanical click-whirr sounds you hear working a fishing reel on a placid, mist-laden lake at dawn. I’m seriously in love with this game’s sounds.☺️ …And that’s no small endorsement: Typically, I quickly become annoyed with game sounds and turn them all off forever. I’d enjoy the addition of some nice haptics. Here’s the only glitch I’ve encountered thus far: Once I’d completed my first 4x4 puzzle, the expected achievement popped up — but then, erroneously, so did the 5x5 achievement. Not too shabby as errors go. I do note, however, there’s apparently been no updates in… THREE YEARS??! Happily tho, the app seems to work fine with the current iOS. ⚠️Mssr. McNamara needs to put his dev hat back on: YOUR “BABY” IS LIKE, SIX NOW.😄 Get back to work, you!🚧 Thanks for another great brain game — 🄻🄸🅃🄴🅁🄰🅁🄸🄻🅈(™) -- cailanmac, 2020-03-12 ### *---- "Didn’t work" Also couldn’t get the tiles to move. Thought I was doing something wrong but couldn’t see a way to get back to the tutorial to check. Also deleted the game. -- Zmbba, 2019-09-01 ### ****- "Brain drain" It is fun but the 3 x 3 puzzles are more challenging than I expected. That is probably my fault for trying to play at 11 PM. lol -- Minnie1948, 2018-10-10 ### ****- "Fun word game, a tad flawed" This is a neat, simple word game that's similar to filling out one corner of a crossword. For the extra $.99 or whatever I grabbed all the extra puzzles. Perfect game while waiting in line or when you have 2 to 6 minutes to kill. Some minor tweaks would help this game. The grid clicking is a tad too slow, the board of play should be larger - there's no reason it shouldn't stretch the width of the phone screen. I just found one bug worth sharing. In 4x4 mode, puzzle pack 3, board #17 cannot be solved. In frustration I kept clicking more hints until the whole board was "solved" for me. But it wasn't. WHOO isn't a word. The board didn't solve itself; it simply locked in every letter for me and left one row incomplete. Ah well. At least I can click onward to the next board. But that was a frustrating 22 minutes. Still worthy of you $2. UPDATE: I've completed 2/3 of the boards and I LOVE this game. Excellent for any crossword fan. -- ToddWebb, 2018-07-29 ### ***** "Clue Master" Who writes the clues? I’d like to be their best friend! I love logic puzzles and the humor of the clues makes this game delightfully challenging! Also, the simplicity of the app design is a welcome and appreciated feature in the world of apps with far, far too many useless and irritating graphics. -- MademoiselleNarwhal, 2018-01-27 ### ****- "Lots of fun!" I am really enjoying playing this game the only downside is I want more levels for free😎 -- amkronick1979, 2017-07-20 ### *---- "Could not get letters to move" I could not get any letters to move and rearrange so I deleted after trying several times. -- Khytree, 2016-10-14 ### ****- "Fun but has some bugs." I keep running into puzzle that have all correct words but will not complete the round. It's a fun game and that happens in maybe one of 20 rounds but it's a bug nonetheless. -- Sprucicle, 2016-06-06 ### *---- "Creators, Please help!" I can't find how to contact you. I used App Support but could'nt find a way to reach you. I keep getting a msg saying I can get all the packs for 99 cents. But I do it and it says no in app purchases allowed. Followed directions but can't get a fix. -- Pinebeers, 2016-03-19 ### ***** "Thinking inside the box" Great game of trying to mix and match to solve each puzzle. Definitely challenging but feels good when you get one right. -- Dreamr4783, 2016-02-28 [View all Letter Box reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Letter Box In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | All 4x4 Packs | $0.99 | | Unlock Everything | $0.99 | | 4x4 Puzzle Pack #3 | $0.99 | | 4x4 Puzzle Pack #4 | $0.99 | | 4x4 Puzzle Pack #5 | $0.99 | | 5x5 Puzzle Pack #2 | $0.99 | | All 3x3 Puzzle Packs | $0.99 | | All 5x5 Puzzle Packs | $0.99 | | 3x3 Bundle #1: Packs 2-5 | $1.99 | | 4x4 Bundle #1: Packs 2-5 | $1.99 | ## Letter Box Discovered Keywords -
