Your app looks really great and I can't wait to test it. I like apps that challenge my vocabulary. I'll give it a try today and let you know how I like it. My only concern is that it is 6MB. At first impression, that is quite a large size, but depending on the complexity and depth of the app, it is likely unavoidable.

Hi,


Thanks for checking it Word Zen out. Let us know what you think. Part of the large file size due to the word database for the game and also graphics so it works on tablets as well. :)

p/s: Some tips to rack up scores in Word Zen.

Okay, I downloaded it and played it for awhile It is very well designed and programmed. I liked the concept and I liked that my G1 could handle it fine, plus how sensitive the game was to my gestures. Usually I have a hard time selecting such small objects on my phone's touchscreen. I did have some times where there was a mistake at the beginning of a word, but for the most part very enjoyable. When you fill up the bar at the bottom, what happens?

Hi,

Thanks for trying it out. Glad you liked Word Zen. Means alot to us devs. :)

For the bar at the bottom it only serves as a timer which adds time every time a word is solved. However with each word repetition the amount of time added decreases. Nothing happens when the timer bar is filled.

German would be nice. If you put it into German, I would think the German side of AndroidPIT (the German side is much bigger) might like your app a lot. I know I do.

My girlfriend plays your app a lot (on expert, or whatever the highest level is.) However, she often mentions to me that she thinks it is too easy/not challenging enough. Maybe a tweaking of the time limit should be in order, or something to make the game a bit harder.
