Game modes

WordUp is like Tetris with letters and words, it has two game modes:

  • WordUp! - An open ended game.
  • Arcade - With level progression.

How to play

Use the Stylus to connect letter into English words.

A word must be at least three characters long and they can be horizontal, vertical, and diagonal. They can also read forward or backward.

Once blocks are correctly connected to form a word, they will disappear form the screen.

If a column of blocks fill up the screen, the game is over.
