Word Cascade: Letter Drop

Letters fall. You decide where they land. Line them up into words, tap to clear, and keep the board from filling to the top.

Word Cascade is a word puzzle game with a calm look and a quick pulse. Each letter drops into one of five columns. Spell a word along a row and it lights up; tap it to clear it and score. Everything above settles down, and new words can form as it does.

HOW TO PLAY
• Steer each falling letter left or right, then drop it.
• Not the letter you need? Hold it for later and swap it back when it fits. One hold per letter.
• Words read left to right along a row, from 2 to 8 letters.
• Tap a lit word to clear it and score.
• Letters fall faster as you go. The game ends when a column reaches the top.

SCORING
• Rare letters are worth more: Q and Z score 10, J and X score 8.
• Longer words multiply: 4 letters double the score, 5 triple it, and so on.
• Clear several words before the next letter lands for a combo, up to 3×.
• Words still lit when the game ends are added to your final score.

FEATURES
• Around 80,000 English words.
• Next-letter preview and a Hold slot, so you can plan ahead.
• Leaderboard with Game Center.
• Quick tips in your first game, and How to play in Settings any time.
