Overview
Description

Assist Lex in forming words by linking adjacent tiles on a grid, earning points for longer words and discovering gem tiles that multiply your score.

It’s a single‑player puzzle experience that blends education with addictive gameplay across PC, iOS, Mac, and Xbox 360.

Developed by Ubisoft Montreal and Ubisoft Québec with linguist Dr. Tom Cobb, it offers a rich dictionary of over 16,800 words and adaptive lessons for all skill levels.

It’s rated ESRB E, making it suitable for players of any age who want to sharpen their language skills.
