WordPix: A Top Pick at Pocket Gamer Connects London

Following the conclusion of our sister site's conference, Pocket Gamer Connects London, we had the privilege of exploring some exciting new game releases. Among them, the word-based puzzle game, WordPix, particularly caught the attention of our editor, Dann Sullivan.

The gameplay in WordPix is delightfully straightforward. Players are shown a series of images and tasked with deducing the corresponding word. For instance, an image of a scaly reptile might lead you to guess "Lizard," while a certain rodent image would suggest "Capybara." While the concept isn't overly complex, it serves as an excellent mental exercise for players on the move.

To keep the gameplay fresh and engaging, WordPix offers a range of modes. There's the standard solo play, as well as multiplayer options for those who enjoy a competitive edge. For a unique challenge, players can tackle "Beat the Boss" modes to test their skills against AI. Additionally, daily challenges such as "Word of the Day" and "Quote of the Day," along with a Sudoku-like mode, ensure there's always something new to explore.

**Pick your puzzle**It's easy to see why WordPix grabbed Dann's attention. The game boasts a simple, clean, and readable user interface and graphics, an accessible concept that escalates in difficulty, and various twists to keep players engaged. As the game approaches its global launch this year, we're hopeful that the developers will introduce more features to attract even more players. Currently, those in the US and UK can enjoy WordPix on iOS, while UK Android users can also join the fun.
