We updated some dependencies so we don't get kicked off of the App Store. We fixed some links too. All for you, our fans.
Tiler More is a unique hybrid of a word game and a merging puzzle. The concept is brilliant: you stack letters to form words, but you also have to manage the space on the board. The interface is exceptionally elegant and minimalist, making it a joy to look at.
While the 'Easy' mode might feel a bit too simple for seasoned word-puzzle fans, the 'Brutal' mode offers a much stiffer challenge. The ability to unstack and rearrange tiles adds a layer of flexibility that prevents you from ever feeling truly frustrated. It's a great 'brain exercise' game that favors creativity over raw speed, perfect for a relaxing evening.
Elegant, minimalist interface
Multiple difficulty levels including 'Brutal'
Innovative stacking and merging mechanics
No time pressure for a relaxed experience
Keep your vowels to one side of the board. This makes it easier to scan for word-building opportunities when your board starts to fill up.
You can stack tiles up to 3 high. Use this to clear space even if you don't have a word ready yet; you can always unstack them later.
The game currently encourages tactical unstacking rather than a traditional undo button to manage moves.
After playing one round of easy mode I jumped straight to brutal to test my theory, and I was correct. This is a puzzle gane that is virtually impossible to lose or get stuck on. If you ever run out of space on the board, just combine some letters together because you can just unstack them later on. There is so much potential space available on the board that you might as well just keep pulling letters until it's almost full then see which words you can complete. On my third run through I decided to just combine like letters together and put the vowels all to one side so they would be easier to search when building words. What I mean to say is that space management isn't a challenge in this game because there is always waaaay more space available than you need. Can't quite think of an easy fix for it, though. I do think that the interface is brilliantly elegant and creative and I love the concept. If the challenge level is ever successfully raised to any level of difficulty, however, I would definitely suggest an undo button because unintentional moves are pretty frequent on the mobile. Great job creators!
Tiler More has a unique tile/letter-stacking mechanic that feels unlike any other word game I've played: it creates a very engaging challenge in managing your board space and letter groups, but it's not stressful thanks to the fact that you can un-merge tiles anytime (as long as you have room to put them somewhere!). Managing to maneuver letters into a full word, then tapping completed words to send them into the tile abyss -- along with the accompanying sound effects -- are all super satisfying. The three difficulty modes offer a nice ramp-up as you learn to play, as well as options for varying game lengths: from a super quick session (Easy) up to a brain-furrowing think-about (Brutal). Even though I love that there's no timer in the core game, which keeps it extremely calm and stress-free, I would like to see other game modes in the future that use something like a time-based score to throw another obstacle at you. But even without that, this is a fantastic, soothing experience that more often than not turns into "just one more game."
This quickly became my favorite game to play. It’s relaxing; no outside pressure with scores, timing, or leaderboards; doesn’t ask for my money, data, or a review; and the right kind of challenging where you couldn’t classify this as an idle game but it also doesn’t increasingly get more difficult, it’s merely always a nice challenge/puzzle; and it always saves your spot if you’re mid-game. My only quip that makes it hard to play are the bugs. One freezes the cube you’re working on, after clumping two letters together, so you’re left with eight spaces to play rather than the nine original. Another bug (that seems connected to the first) is a letter itself freezing on the cube spot so it won’t move, sometimes it just disappears too. Closing the app doesn’t help the issue at hand either because of the incredible game-saving aspect; I guess one has to either try to play it through the round with considerable disadvantages with the bugs, or start over which can be very disappointing/anti-climatic. Besides the bugs, which don’t happened too often, this game is wonderful.
I’m a word game fanatic and have been playing the same popular word game for over 1.5 years and am bored out of my mind now. I don’t honestly know why I continue to play it other than that no other game was appealing. That is, until I found Tiler More. I love that there’s actual strategy involved and not just making words out of letters. And I love that there’s three levels of difficulty. If I had one suggestion for improvement it would be the ability to click on a word for a definition. I have come across some words that forced me to get out my physical dictionary - not that I don’t like expanding my vocabulary but it would be nice to have that instant gratification. : ) Other than that nit-picky request, this is a fun and challenging word game.
I love supporting independent and clever game creators. The best part of playing this word game is figuring out ways to play. The next best part is telling my friends so they can download it, too and we can figure out different ways to play-together. I appreciate that there are no scores, no timers, and that it is free. I look at words differently when breaking them down in brutal mode. It’s challenging without being frustrating. I like the simplicity and colors which make playing the game easy on the eyes and brain. I do hope you guys become emotional millionaires and you continue creating great games, hopefully earning some other rewards, as well!
I’ve played almost every word game... and this is one of my favorites!!! The gameplay is easy to learn and makes you think about words in a unique way. The simplistic design is aesthetically pleasing and keeps you engaged. I would love the option to change the tile colors, at least in dark mode so it’s easier on the eyes at night or early morning. I’ve been playing for a few weeks and would love the option for another difficulty level beyond ‘brutal’ such as a ‘barbaric’ gameplay!! I love the game. Thank you to the creators - I hope you read this!!!!!!
You know how sometimes, you just need to play a “merge 3” game for a few hours with your brain set on autopilot? This app is a happy medium between those types of games, and the more thought-intensive wordplay puzzle genre. As other reviewers have noted, it’s virtually impossible to lose (even in “brutal” mode), but the gameplay is still super engaging in its own way. There’s something undeniably relaxing about merging and clearing a board. Plus, I very much appreciate the lack of in-app purchases!
This is the most original word game out there. There’s no need to buy hints or second tries. As a matter of fact there isn’t even any ads. And I would pay for this game. It has a great concept and truly is at level where it says. Kudos to the developers. And on top of that they don’t keep popping up asking for a review. I went out of my way to go to the App Store and write this because if you live word games you need this one.
