Re: SpellStack Player's Guide
Hello. I have downloaded Spelstack, tried to play a game, read the tutorial and I still don't understand one thing. When is my turn supposed to end? I have built a three-letter word vertically when it was my turn and nothing happened.Is there any button I should click to submit my move or is it supposed to end the turn for me? Also one question to the developers: would it be hard and is it planned at all, to introduce support for dictionaries of other languages so multilingual people could play in different languages? Spellstack looks like a fun game to fill the gab on Android where my favourite to time, Hanging With Friends, is lacking accessibility support. Have a nice day. Best regards Paweł W dniu 2014-01-17 18:45, Maria and Joe Chapman pisze: thank you. the second tutorial was totally awesome. Will need to play lots more but I think I understand it better tnow.

Re: SpellStack Player's Guide
Hi some letters are locked in because other letters are on top of them etc. I would try making another word in that situation.

Re: SpellStack Player's Guide
Thanks for taking the time to write that out. The tutorials make sense now, but as I play an actual game I find myself getting lost. Here's an example of a game I'm playing against the Medium Marge AI: I tried to make the word 'cone. E is in a2, C is in b2, N is in c3, and O is in d2. I tapped all four, in order as you told me on Twitter, and the game said it was moving tiles, then that it could not make the word. What happened? No tiles are locked, so what is it trying to move things for? Why would making the word fail since all four are touching? On a side note, what visually denotes a locked tile?

Re: SpellStack Player's Guide
Hi Alex, In your situation it looks like the letters for CONE aren't in the right order. the E isn't touching the C. They need to touch each other in order. Normally the game would take care of moving the letters around for you, but I think some of them might be blocked in (or can't be moved without locking it). Locked tiles are visually denoted by being darker than unlocked tiles. So the ones your mom sees as a darker color are locked. Hope this helps, Kwasi On Thu, Jan 16, 2014 at 3:50 PM, Alex Hall mehg...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks for taking the time to write that out.

Re: SpellStack Player's Guide
Oh, I thought they could be in any order so long as I tapped them in the correct order. Okay, one more puzzle solved. I'm still unclear on when the game moves letters, though. For instance, I spelled sheen going all the way up the first column as my initial move in a game, and the app rearranged my tiles for some reason. By the time the AI went, I had no idea where it had moved my tiles because some had disappeared.

They need to touch each other in order. Normally the game would take care of moving the letters around for you, but I think some of them might be blocked in (or can't be moved without locking it). Locked tiles are visually denoted by being darker than unlocked tiles. So the ones your mom sees as a darker color are locked. Hope this helps, Kwasi On Thu, Jan 16, 2014 at 3:50 PM, Alex Hall mehg...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks for taking the time to write that out. The tutorials make sense now, but as I play an actual game I find myself getting lost. Here's an example of a game I'm playing against the Medium Marge AI: I tried to make the word 'cone. E is in a2, C is in b2, N is in c3, and O is in d2. I tapped all four, in order as you told me on Twitter, and the game said it was moving tiles, then that it could not make the word. What happened? No tiles are locked, so what is it trying to move things for? Why would making the word fail since all four are touching? On a side note, what visually denotes a locked tile? I am trying to show my mother, who loves word games, this app. She is not sure what I mean by locked and is also not sure why some tiles are darker colors than others.

A letter starts of as a player 1 or player 2 letter when it drops down at the start of your turn. At the start of player 1's turn 5 player 1 letters drop down and at the start of player 2's turn 5 player 2 letters come down. I hope that clarifies.

I think I will try a game now. :) One quick question though. How do tiles become player one or player two tiles? Is it the five tiles at the start of your turn that become your tiles? I hope that question make sense. I understand a tile becomes yours if you steel it but I just wondered how the tiles start out as belonging to a particular player. :) Thanks so much for making this app accessible and taking the time to explain and show us how to play. I love word games but accessible games that we can play with others are very few, in fact, I am unaware of any, except for hanging with friends. Again, Thanks so very much for all of the hard work, Christina On Jan 16, 2014, at 11:32 AM, Kwasi Mensah kwasi.men...@gmail.com wrote: Hi viphone, A lot of people asked for a SpellStack walkthroughs.
