Bringing people together to play a classic word game format, Pollywords is a language learning game that allows users to build vocabulary and exercise the full range of their language abilities. The game allows for users to play in a number of languages at the same time. Algorithm based learning allows users to get hints that can challenge their vocabulary. Cheeky features like ‘Peeping Polly’ allow you to view your opponent’s tiles once a game, heating up the competition a little bit. Pollywords introduces the concept of Charactiles; image-based tiles which are used to block words from being extended by your opponent. Players can also enter words into the crowdsourced dictionary and ask friends to vote and validate their contributions, earning rewards for their efforts.
