About LEX

LEX is more than a word game. It’s an ephemeral experience of colorful glyphs and breath-taking music that you create as you play.

Combine letters to form words before time runs out. Each word gets you closer and closer to the next level.

Your heart pounds as you fight to make just one more word.


Features:

- Modern twist on the traditional word game formula

- Each letter you choose creates a unique kaleidoscoping image

- Includes a player-generated soundtrack conducted by your every move

- Leaderboards and achievements to compete with your friends

- Simple enough for kids who are learning how to spell

- “Pro Submitting” setting to submit words even faster

- Universal app looks great on every device.


Note to parents:

LEX does not have any in app purchases or ads. We have also included an expletive filter. If you have any questions or comments, please email us (see below).

Now you can take your time making big words in the beginning while ramping up that multiplier to dizzying heights.
We're already fast at work on our next update, so if you have feedback on LEX, drop us a line and show us some love at support@simplemachine.co

This game is so worth it. For the price of $1 I don't see why other people complain so much. If you don't want to pay a simple dollar for a word game that makes you learn new words then don't pay that dollar, why else would you if you didn't want the experience of playing anagram type games.

Does need some restart option for when I'm stuck, also if it showed possible words once I lose I could see out really helping expand my vocabulary.

Z70%
by Z####:

Fun game but after only a couple rounds my phone got way too hot. Would like to play more but not until it's fixed.

M70%
by M####:

I can imagine this will help my vocabulary, as well. My only complaint is that due to how bonuses work, my highest scored words tend to be simple ones late in the game, and not the more complex ones I did early on.

This game will make you come up with words you did not even know existed. Amazing.

I saw lex on a app all night on Vsauce. This app keeps pulling me back time and time again, with its interesting use of letters for the background, to the racking your brain for words to use to get your next level or trying to accomplish a better score.

This is a simple but amazingly Fun game. Great concept and great music. Although there should be a free version so people can try it out and see how they like it, but not flooded with ads like other free or lite games.

All it says is the main sponsor, a tiny bar of yellow and then it closes. My phone is a lenovo a5000 EDIT: Works fine now, good game but just a bit fast.

More time needs to be give on the letter U though. Words with U aren't that easy.

by M####:

It has the power to keep you entertained on the occasion wait at a line, dmv, leisure time and at the same time give you brain exercise. Soundtrack is on key with you as you advance with your on going game. Not bad for the price.

Tried to use this on the subway and the app crashes every time without a steady data connection. Pls fix!

F70%
by F####:

loads of words are missing from your dictionary and there is something not right with algorithm choosing letters as there is only one 'same letter' appearing at once which hugely limits number of possible words....

L70%

1) Needs a pause menu. 2) K is shaped like a Cyrillic K, making me create Russian words.

It made me buy the game is don't know if the app is any good but if it is you get 5/5 even if the game is a 3...

It's like playing Scrabble with a ticking time bomb. Love it!

It's not complicated and it challenges your mind. Great game to pass the time. The music will hook you. Love it.

Y70%
by Y####:

This game is great to play while waiting for the bus or killing a few minutes. It's simple, but looks and plays great. After a few plays you'll quickly learn which specific letters you have trouble thinking of words for. I thought I'd have a tough time thinking of words with 'Z' in them but I have more trouble with the 'U.' The one thing I don't like is that you get more points at higher levels, so when you get your high score it's sad to see that the 3 letter word you made at a high level is worth more than the 7 letter word you came up with at an early level.

N70%
by N####:

I downloaded this for myself thinking it was a single player game and got hooked, so daughter saw me playing it a lot and wanted to play too. This is now the favorite two-player app I have. I find the words and spell them out, saying either the letter or the sound she finds the letters and taps them. Very quickly improved her ability to identify letters with me either saying the letter or sounding the word out slowly. I fully expect that she will soon be able to find easy words like DOG or CAT without me even having to say the word. She loves it when the tempo gets faster and goes into a panic when the time limit on a letter is about to expire.

N70%
by N####:

The developers have done an incredible job of bringing a word/puzzle game to consumers looking to challenge themselves. Aesthetically, it delivers and although seemingly plain, it brings a sense of calm to the eye. The music quickens as you advance in the game, and often i found myself feeling the pressure to use letters I am usually unable to make words with. Overall, a great attempt. Keep up the good work!

D70%
by D####:

Great game but what dictionary are you using? Lots of basic scrabble words aren't accepted so it's very frustrating to know what is a "word" and what is a word.

O70%
by O####:

Really cool game, awesome design, nice music and really buttery smooth graphics

T70%
by T####:

Would love to tap again on a letter to deselect it, pause menu to restart, and maybe having repeat letters in the queue. Game looks and plays phenomenally.

N70%
by N####:

I just bought this game but I cannot play it with my samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0. Really disappointed by this. Hope that the developer could fix this problem very soon.

C70%
by C####:

Takes up a lot of memory, for such a simple word game. Don't get me wrong, the visual effects are nice, (hooray, fractals!) if you look at them, though, you will lose. I hope some sort of significant menu materializes along with settings. No tweaking of the play time, perhaps a limit on number of tiles that get hot. I wish there were statistics. Wouldn't mind turning the expletive filter off.

I regret paying money for this! For something that doesn't have a free version this is missing a lot of simple options. Where's the pause button or at the very least when I push the back button it should allow me to restart not exit the app completely! Plus you never get any double letters which takes away a lot of word possibilities. FIX!

Its a neat idea, but they really spent no time on the UI. Its ugly, has a ridiculously long splash screen (makes quick play sessions impossible), there is no way to deselect a letter and the colors hurt your eyes. has potential but its not worth any money

C70%
by C####:

Fast paced well designed game which makes you think quickly, I love it. However the long loading screen is a bit annoying more so the forced google+ log in. I found it very useless anyway.

C70%
by C####:

Its a good game. The music is relaxing allowing you to focus harder and unlike most word scramble games it isnt as difficult. It give you plenty time to create words and progressively becomes note difficult. Loving it so far!

C70%
by C####:

I'd give this game 5 stars if some of the letter line ups werent impossible to create a word out of. Especially when you get far along and have no choice but to lose. The other thing is that unlike most other games, this one lets my screen fall asleep which is annoying. Other than that this game is super fun and makes you think!

I70%
by I####:

Its a good game and well worth the buck is costs. My only dislike with this game is it was a little lazily executed. The same music every time no alert sounds for running out of time. Maybe add a main menu also with some settings.
