Mr Word challenges you to a word game with added personality. Even more so, now that Mr Word talks back.

This update sees the following enhancements:

- Mr Word chats with you during 1 player game play, just like a real human opponent
- Improved dictionary (uses the Oxford English Dictionary if installed)
- High score table, plus keeps track of how many games each player has won
- more consistent AI gameplay

Choose 1 player or 2 player modes, and enter your name to begin.

In 1 player mode, you are playing against Mr Word himself. Featuring Genuine People Personality, Mr Word will really give you a run for your money. Sometimes he will offer encouraging comments, other times he can be a little sarcastic - try not to let him put you off.

Choose a difficulty level, Easy, Medium or Hard, then Mr Word will choose words that a real human would choose (his vocabulary increases in Hard level), and respond to your move in seconds - great for rapid fire play. Now even faster than before.

If you make Mr Word think for longer than a few seconds, you are doing really well!

Mr Word will even "spellcheck" your words as you lay them, so you know in advance whether the word you are playing is acceptable. New option: turn off spellcheck for more challenging word play.

In 2 player mode, your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch becomes a high quality table top board game. Both users can examine and manipulate their letters simultaneously, and the board rotates to face you when its your turn.

Mr Word Pro is minimalist, highly playable, and totally ad free so you can rediscover the joy of word games.

Also featuring the Define button - instantly brings up word definitions for all words played. High quality, Apple-supplied dictionary of over 100,000 words. Features definitions from the Oxford English Dictionary so you can learn new words and their meanings every time you play.

Pros and cons of Mr Word Pro app for iPhone and iPad

Mr Word Pro app good for

Meanwhile, with many adjoinable dictionaries, an ultimatively valuable tool to polish up ones portfolio of English words being no native speaker ...
Challenging and fast. I like that i can leave mid-game, and return to continue playing. There is no time counter which suits me fine. I think instructions for the upper levels are urgently needed. A big problem which led to the four stars allotted, is that the game dismisses many English words as not allowed and I am not talking about names or abbreviations which are accepted in everyday usage. The maker needs to address these problems.
I love playing against Mr Word but lately the game just quits. I like to think that Im so far ahead that the computer just folds! It is frustrating but the game itself is really fun.
Hi.love mr word.can the computer talk a tad slower.too uptight.love the spellcheck.very fun to play. No English talking on paid version but it is on my other one.love the game..
Still miss the old integrated dictionary but with latest update for iOS 9, many small but fixes are improved. Thank you for continuing. Am giving 5 stars because this is still the most intuitive and natural scrabble game Ive used to date. Please continue updating as I think its a home run.

Some bad moments

There is no way to exchange tile...shuffle tile or recall tile. A waste of time & money ...dont recommend to anyone
Guys, you need to fix it, the program throws you out, whatever you do.
I am rating this a 3 because it seems that Mr. word can use words that when others use them are not allowed. Also his calculations for his score is different than others; example would be making a simple word by adding one letter, I wouldnt always get both words and also dont receive if it is a double or triple letter but Mr Word always gets whatever is under each letter. I like the game, but BOTH sides need to be more equal. Thank u!
How do you play this game? I cant find out how to play the game. The link for support goes to an unrelated web page. It is not scrabble so ho to play is a mystery to me. Would it be asking too much for a built in help file. This is total waste of my money
Fun single player scrabble game! Only wish board completely filled iphone 5 screen.
I turned off the obnoxious voice - who wants to be heckled and abused while trying to relax? And why is it a female voice when I am playing MR. Word? The app lost one star for not tallying the words for me before I play them, and one star for not recognizing words that are clearly words - like "fewer". This app is recognizing fewer and fewer legitimate words. There, I just used it in a sentence.
