Words With Friends is a fun game where you can create words based on the words that are created from the opponent.

This is a game where you have to think a step ahead. It begins with one person placing letters on the game board that create a word. The opponent will then use those letters to make another word, but the new word can only involve one letter of the word that has been used. It's similar to Scrabble, but there isn't as much pressure to make words, and the scoring is a bit different. When you have made your word, you send a notification to the other player. If that person doesn't make a word in a reasonable amount of time, then you can nudge that player or force the player to forfeit the game.

There is an option to play against others in your area as the app uses your location to find opponents. If you play the game at the same time as the other person, there is a chat feature so that you can send messages back and forth. Don't worry about being at a loss for words as there are hints if you get stuck. You can access the game on almost any device, making it a fun app to have so that you can play at home or when you're sitting in an office waiting. With bright colors and larger letters that are easy to see, Words With Friends is a fun game that can keep you busy for hours at a time.
