Description
Given a six letter scrambled word, try to solve as many three, four ,five, and six letters words as possible.
You start with 25 seconds, and each correct word submited adds to the clock.
Bigger words add more time.
The clock starts as soon as you click a letter. If you click "new word" button before the clock starts, you will be given a new scrambled word to work with.
After clicking letters to spell your word, click submit to check it. If correct, it will be displayed on the board.
Press shuffle to re-scramble the letters, and maybe it will give you a hint for a word.
Press last to load the last word, handy for speedy spelling of words like RAT, RATE, RATES.
Press clear to clear the selected letters.
The game has a pause button to allow for interuptions, but the screen is covered while it is paused.
There are two arrows at the bottom right to allow you to select different themes for the game. Have fun.

Absolutely, definitively needs to accept keyboard input to be usable. Spelling with mouse clicks is counterintuitive. 2/5 Otherwise it's an OK Text Twist clone, 3/5 if I could use the keyboard.

The game is quite fun, but as MoratGurgeh said, keyboard input. Also, allow backspace and the mouse equilivant to remove the last letter entered. Lastly, order the words alphabetically. 3/5

Thanks guys. This comments are very helpful. Someone else suggested the keyboard control, which I will be adding soon. Never thought about laptop users.
Thanks

the time limit is too strict IMO.
