I'm starting to develop a similar twitch whenever I read it as I do for "could care less"... *sigh* Textropolis is a fun game, though. I general dislike word games because I'm really bad at them (I can't spell for a start) but the lack of penalty for guessing wrong is great. @Plantane I know what you mean about "addicting"...

Try it and see; it's impossible to explain why/how it's so addictive. Same with scoops (same developer I think.) I play 'em like a crazed goon, until my wife steals my iphone :( Textropolis is a great game. Try it and see; it's impossible to explain why/how it's so addictive.

Very highly polished, great look to it, and as much as part of me likes a time limit and a bit of pressure, it's nice to see someone doing something different. What arn says about it "surprisingly" working is true. While there's no pressure to hurry and find words, knowing there's more, and seeing the cities grow (for whatever reason) compels me to keep looking. Great game, and easily worth more than it sells for.

I've actually started to try not to use the word "addictive" in my App Store reviews. To me, it just doesn't mean anything anymore. Further, I am often reluctant to purchase a word game that is described as "addicting" in the description. I once saw it being used in a screen shot... Surely, in reality, it would not have been accepted. Oh well... Pet peeve. On topic, Textropolis is an excellent game. Congrats and thanks, Ian. @Steve: I completely agree with you.
