What it is and what you do with it: marble run meets golf meets typography arcade/puzzle game.
Guide the golf balls to solve series of puzzles - in the shape of letters of alphabet - to complete the words in the fewest strokes possible.
Each letters has a unique style and unique set of obstacles and contraptions. Eg. for 'A' (Airport) you have to avoid starting airplanes, for 'U' (UFO) you try to avoid being snatched by a flying saucer, for Y (YoYo) avoid getting hit by the giant YoYo.
There are two game modes: you can create your own word or use a random word from the predefined list.
What we liked: original concept. Beautiful typography and artwork (each letter/puzzle is in a completely different style). Sounds and sonic backgrounds (original music for each letter). Multiplayer mode (up to 4 people). Attention to detail. Overall quality of the app.
What we didn't like: some puzzles can be very difficult to complete.
