Our popular Word Scram game was
mentioned in January 31, 2002's
LA Times newspaper.
It was listed as a "Tip of the Week" website in the
Tech Times
column.
It's also published on their site.
TIP OF THE WEEK
Scrambling for Words
By David Colker
Love Scrabble but need lots of practice? At
www.billsgames.com/wordscram you'll find Wordscram, a
puzzle that's a great workout for the Scrabble part of your
brain.
Using Java, the computer displays 16 letters it chooses at
random. You then have 60 seconds to make as many words
as possible from these letters. The longer the word, the more
points it earns.
In addition to playing solo, you can play Wordscram against
as many as three other humans.
One correction, though - the game doesn't use Java. (In fact, nothing
on Bill's Games does!) I'm guessing the confusion came from the
fact that Word Scram can use JavaScript (though it doesn't
require it).
