Word Tack
A cozy word-sorting puzzle
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
20 new levels! Pack for a road trip, survive game night, then untangle rhymes, hidden words and sound-alikes. Plus dazzling gold and holographic treasures in the shop.
Sort scattered words into their hidden groups in Word Tack, a cozy word puzzle with a handmade feel: washi tape, typewriter labels and paper tiles that look cut out by hand.
Every puzzle hides eight groups of five words. Drag tiles between rows, and when a row holds all five words of a group, it's sealed and its category is revealed. There's no timer and no penalty for a wrong guess, so take your time.

Better VoiceOver support
• VoiceOver now announces solved rows, Inklings and Clues.
• Cards say where they sit on the board, like “TOAST, row 3, card 2”. You can turn this off in Settings.
Thank you to the player whose feedback inspired these VoiceOver changes!
