Description from the packaging.

Better than Boggle!

The Ultimate Word Game.

The challenge never ends with Word Challenge, Hayden's mind-boggling computer word game. Like the game of Boggle, the object is to discover as many words as possible using contiguous letters which are randomly arranged on a grid.

Compete against a 90,000 word lexicon!

With Word Challenge, you compete against LEX, the dreaded Word Master, whose 90,000 word lexicon will delight, amaze and challenge you with unusual words.

Sharpen your vocabulary skills.

Test and improve your vocabulary skills while you learn to outsmart the computer. Challenge a friend to play the same game against LEX and see who wins!

A variety of unique options allows you to construct a game suitable to your skill level. Here are some of the exciting features you will find in Word Challenge.

  • 26 Levels of difficulty at which LEX can play.
