Anagraphs: A Word Game with a Twist

Named one of the 17 Best Word Games by DroidGamers.com, Anagraphs is an educational word puzzle designed to build linguistic and spatial skills. An anagraph is an extension of an anagram in which letters can be rotated. In a typical anagram, the letters of a word are rearranged to make another, such as raw and war. Using the specially designed Anagraph game font, the r and m characters can be rotated to shift from raw to ram, jam, and jaw. The game begins with simple puzzles but quickly increases in difficulty, requiring you to optimize efficiency in order to progress. There’s also  “Open Play” mode, for the ultimate language-puzzle meditative flow.

Anagraphs was developed by Cinq-Mars Media, a 501(c)(3) educational games and technology developer. It’s free for PC, Mac and Linux, as well as iOS and Android, and open-source on GitHub.
