Word Juice

Word Juice is a word construction game similar to Bookworm, where the main task is to create as many words as possible by connecting three or more letter tiles on a grid. The game takes place on a small window overlaid on the screen, showing the grid surrounded by a series of arrows placed at the tips of each line and column. The letters can't be connected diagonally, only vertically and horizontally, making the chains limited to square or rectangular shapes.

There are two modes available, arcade and strategy. In arcade mode, the objective is to create words to fill a container jar at the bottom with juice before the power bar, continuously depleting at the top, is completely spent. Longer words give more juice, and two buttons below the game area can be used to replace the bottom row or change all the letter tiles, at the cost of some power for each use. Three special tiles randomly appear on the grid: blank tiles that can replace any letter on a valid word, letters with star multipliers that give bonus juice when used and bombs that explode the surrounding tiles when placed in a successful chain.

In strategy mode, the goal is to complete lots of words before the time meter at the top runs out. The arrows positioned at the edges are used to move the lines and columns and help creating new lexicon. Optionally, they can be moved by clicking and dragging them up and down or sideways.
