Letter Matrix iPhone game

USA Network’s digital team is out with their first iPhone game – Letter Matrix, designed for spelling/word game fanatics — “testing player’s speed, mental dexterity and ability to stay calm under pressure.”

From the press release:

Letter Matrix is a time-based word game that rewards the player for creating words from the English language. In each level of the game, the player interacts with falling books containing a single letter on each spine. The challenge is for the user to combine the individual letters to create words that are no fewer than three characters in length. As words are submitted and accepted, the books are put away and game-play continues through 20 increasingly complex and faster levels. Competitive players can view global online leader-boards and even challenge other iPhone Letter Matrix players. Scoring is based on word length, letter value and complexity of words.

But that’s not all. USA Networks will be releasing more games in the near future. In the meantime, interested users can grab Letter Matrix for $3.99. A free, lite version is also available.
