About Word Nice
Word Nice is a calm word puzzle by Alan Brooks: make words that use every letter on the board, with an otter for company. It’s free, with tap-to-spell, larger text and VoiceOver support, and no ads, accounts or tracking.
On iPhone Duo nothing sits in the fold. Open the phone mid-puzzle and the board stays under your fingers; bend it and the letters turn to watch; snap it shut and they fall asleep. It’s the gentler sibling of Word Vice.
