Drag your finger in any direction to spell as many words as you can before time runs out. Finding words adds time to the timer and keeps your game going. If you complete the six goals, you'll advance to the next tier where you'll find six more challenging goals to conquer. Can you find the TOP WORD, which is the longest word in the puzzle? If so, you'll be rewarded. Find one of the top-ten words and you'll earn a special "Chicka-Pah".

How to play:
The timer is increased slightly when you spell words correctly and it fills up completely when you find 25%, 50% or 75% of the words in the puzzle or when you find the TOP WORD. Words comprised of one or two letters don't count.
The player begins on Tier 1. Each tier has six goals. When all six goals have been met, you can advance to the next tier with six more challenging goals. On the main menu, tap on the goal tiles for more information about each goal. Speaking of the tiles on the main menu, there may be a secret hidden in them. Pay attention to the sound they make.
Tap the commence button to start a new game.
The game is over when time runs out. All words in the puzzle will be revealed and are color coded as follows:
red = missed word
green = found new word (first time)
white = found word that you found previously in another puzzle
yellow = hint word missed
If you're curious about the meaning of a word, you can tap on any word to bring up a dictionary with the word's definition.

Still addictive and one of my favorite games!
I play on my IPad. Great game for kids and adults. I am addicted. I love that there are no annoying ads and I don't need good eye-hand skill to play. Lol. Chickapahs are fun and I like that it keeps track of the words you find and that you learn new words as you go.
Lots of fun!
Fantastic app
This is a totally addictive game that targets verbal fluency--I love it. The only problem is that now I have to fight with my younger and older kids to use my own iPhone as they've taken it over with Top Word. Thanks for a great family app!
You've Got to Get Now
After 3 months whole family is still totally addicted. On my IPad alone I'm coming up on 800 games! As fun as it is is educational for everyone. Improves vocabulary while being so fun.
Also heard about on MacCast and have been playing it since as is my whole Family of 5. All of the time. Very fun to play together on same game.
Giving it a shot
I heard about this on The MacCast as well. I'm giving it a go.
Great job
Fun game. Found out about it from the maccast podcast.
Great game!
Lots of fun detailed extras.
Addictive!
Such fun! Unfortunately, I am not doing anything else anymore. This slide-your-finger word game is addictive. Love the badges you can win, the music, and that you get better as you play.
Great quick game
This is a great go-to game for when you need to kill a minute or two. It's addictive and keeps you sharp. One of the most played games on my phone.
Super addictive and challenging
Really great game - fun to play alone and work on the vocabulary or to do challenges with friends. Perfect casual game for all players.
Brain teasing fun
Totally addicting and a great brain teaser. The guitar sounds and fireworks are a lot of fun!
