If you enjoy word games and love chocolate, today’s Valentine variation mockup might just be love at first write. Come along on a factory tour and mind the vats as we marry words and chocolate into melty mouthwatering word bars. After that, bite into a heartful product that’s already in your hands if you’ve got the app. That would be Love Letters candy hearts, with their own unique twist – multicolored short words score more. Long-press “New Game” and swipe to bring that or any current variation up. In each case here, you can tell Blu Yonder’s (your opponent’s) results with the same letters and candies by the blue top bar. Blu used its decaf Spell the Coffee mode. Check out a bonus mockup game at the bottom, too!
We’ll fill things out with a few faux-cabulary words – nonsense nougats that stood out and lacked definition, so definitions we gave. No points, but a fun optional sideshow of the game, kind of like a comic with your bubble gum. As with all our demo versions, it’s a quick boilerplate sketch of what an actual release might look like, hard-to-read print, chocolate smudges and all. In this first game, we ended up wasting quite a few good letters to boot. But putting words in your mouth may never be easier for now, so dig in. Like any good box of chocolates, some pieces may end up with a scoring surprise inside, but it’s WYSIWYG at the moment. Brown wrappers actually touching indicate connecting letters.
