Dabble is a fresh word puzzle game with a clever twist, available now on iOS

Dabble (full name: “Dabble - Word Games + Spin”) is a fun and relaxing word game that puts your vocabulary knowledge to the test through a self-paced game flow with elegant visuals. The developers of Dabble call the experience word therapy.

Inspired by the classic word game SpellTower, at its core, Dabble is a simple survival game with the objective of selecting as many words as possible—with longer words earning more points—to remove tiles from the game board and keep at least one row clear. If you love word games and had fun with the classic game Tetris back in the day, you’re going to love Dabble.

Unlike traditional find-and-remove word games with static game boards, Dabble features a clever rotating board that eliminates edge constraints. Rotating the board continuously creates new word opportunities and allows players to enjoy a single game session over very long periods. Players who have experienced SpellTower’s (or similar games’) “valley of doom” problem will enjoy turning those valleys into peaks in Dabble. 

Dabble provides a comprehensive analysis of your word usage over time, including an insightful chart on the distribution of letters in your words. It even recommends improving recognition of certain letters when it detects a noticeable difference from the standard letter distribution in the English language.

With no time limit, and a selection of audio and visual themes to choose from, Dabble is a relaxing experience; you craft words and build up your score over days, weeks, or even months, aspiring to join the greats on the game’s leaderboards. The in-app dictionary especially comes in handy when you’re itching to know a word’s meaning but don’t want to lose your focus.

Dabble is free to download on the Apple App Store. You can also check the game’s website, as well as its Instagram and X accounts, for news and updates. All Dabble features are available for free, and as you grow your skills and aim to climb the game’s leaderboards, you can choose to raise the game’s word limit through in-app purchases.
