<p>Rocketmaker Productions announces the release of Grabl, an original iPhone word game where you spell connected words by dragging lettered tiles onto a gridded board.</p>
<p>Grabl&#8217;s addictive gameplay, intuitive controls, online high scores, and ability to show off the boards you create to friends via email will keep you hooked for hours!</p>
<p><img src="http://www.rocketmaker.com/grabl/images/shots/other_1.jpg" alt=" grabl" /></p>
<p><strong>Feature Highlights:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Intuitive controls</li>
<li> Multiple game modes</li>
<li> Online high scores</li>
<li> Customizable background (use your own photos!)</li>
<li> Show off your boards to friends via email</li>
<li> Fun sound effects</li>
<li> Addicting, endless fun!</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Here&#8217;s how you play:</strong></p>
<p>You start out with a blank, scrollabe grid on the top half of the screen and 14 tiles in your &#8220;hand&#8221; at the bottom of the screen. Drag the tiles onto the grid to spell words. When you spell a valid word, it will be highlighted in yellow.</p>
<p>Spelling words earns you points and more tiles (press the &#8220;more please&#8221; button to get your earned tiles). Longer words are worth more points! When your time runs out at the end of a round, any unused tiles count against your score.</p>
<p>Grabl has 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, and 5:00 game modes as well as a special mode called &#8220;frenzy!&#8221; where you start out with only 30 seconds on the clock and earn more time as you spell words.</p>
<p>Pros</p>
<ul>
<li>Addictive seriously if you are into word games</li>
<li>Learn lot&#8217;s of new words by trial &amp; error (parents&#8230;wink!)</li>
<li>Clean &amp; smooth user interface with excellent graphics + sound effects</li>
</ul>
<p>Cons</p>
<ul>
<li>No dictionary details of certain words to really know each word means (if can have a simple description on words form will be nice)</li>
<li>No proper tutorial walk through? What is &#8220;Sowpods&#8221; or &#8220;TWL&#8221; dictionary means? (Sorry I suck LOL)</li>
</ul>
<p>Grabl is available for only .99 USD in the iPhone App Store. Check it out!</p>
