7. Letter Rip

If you don’t like being rushed by a ticking timer or sort of thing, you have a good chance to love Letter Rip. Unlike other word games for Android, this one allows you to play it to your heart’s content and set your own pace.

Heck, you can even forget the rules that require you to make words from traditional orientation (left to right or top to bottom). So long as the letters are close to each other, you can connect them altogether to form a word. Sounds good, right?

6. Word Search

This game should be familiar to you if you were once like me, an EFL (English as a foreign language) learner. You get a large grid of letters to start with and when you feel you’re ready, you can begin scanning the grid to look for words. When you got one, all you have to do is just  draw a line through it. It’s very simple indeed. Perhaps, too simple because there is not much of customization provided. An option to turn the grid to a darker color scheme would be nice.

5. 7 Little Words

Developed by Blue Ox Technologies Ltd., 7 Little Words is an Android word game that is pretty minimalist but highly addictive. In this game, you have to solve crossword style slues using 20 letter groups , using including 2 or 3 letters each.

The lite version of this game doesn’t cost anything from your end, so you’d better give it a shot before you do the upgrade.

4. Dropwords

Previously named as Word Drop, the game is now popular with the name of Dropwords. To start with, you get a wide grid of letters from which you can form your words. Unlike Letter Rip, this one does care about direction. You will have to form your words from left to right or top to bottom. Once you make your first word, the letters will disappear, allowing new letters to drop from the top of the screen.

Pretty much like Bejeweled. Scores are accumulated and compiled through the Papaya Mobile social gaming network, so you can compete with friends online.

3. Word Weasel

In this particular word game for Android, you’re not going to be involved in one-on-one word finding game or something like that. Instead, you’re going to challenge yourself against a dozen or more opponents in one game. How does it sound to you? In Word Weasel, you’re required to discover as many words as you can in one minute. Your score is calculated based on the words you have found and when the timer hit the marks, the screen will show you all scores of the participants and rank them from high to low.

Don’t worry about not having any worthy opponents. This game is so famous that you’ll have a hard time finding a moment where this game actually runs out of players.

2. Wordfreud FREE

For short description about this game, I think it’s safe to say that Wordfreud FREE is the best alternative for Scrabble on Android. Heck, it was even published far before EA made the port for Scrabble. Although the idea might not be very original, there are still many things to love about it. This is especially if youre type of person who values simplicity and starightforwardness more than anything else.
