Subwords

I love it. Some words I did not even know. It is really adictive and I love timed mode wich is super cool. Accessibility is perfect and everything is working fine.e

I'm enjoying this a lot, so simple and accessible!

How do I access the hidden levels? I have no idea.

Hi Sasha,
developer of Subwords here. The hidden levels are getting unlocked by playing the available ones. For every level you can earn out to 6 stars (3 in Classic and 3 in Timed mode) - And every hidden level has a specific amount of stars you need to have to unlock it. Hope that answers the question. If not, just sent a mail to support[at]subwords.app

A message for the developer: I am personally not a fan of the new feature where words are divided up by syllbles as I think it makes the game too easy. Perhaps you could make it a setting so users had the choice.

Hi, there seems to be a bug with the fruit level several times now I have had the issue where I select the word grape and that is accepted and grape is removed from the board, but when I go through all the other options on the board I am finally left with just the one word fruit and I don't have any options to make the word grapefruit which is what the hint tells me I need to make to complete the level.
also, I would like to suggest could we have an option on the actions menu of the rotor to cancel a selection, it saves having to go either hunting for what you want to deselect, or finding the selection area and losing your space on the board.
there also seem to be issues where sometimes I am focused in the selection area rather than on the board when I first start a level which can cost me seconds trying to escape from it, and sometimes focus gets bounced to it when a word is cleared off the board.
also VoiceOver feels sluggish sometimes when trying to navigate the board which can really slow me down as well and this is on an x so it certainly shouldn't be. over all its a fun little game though.

Hi, what I am suggesting is a menu on the rotor that would quickly let you review all your selections then deselect any of them that you want, and also a more efficient way to insert selections to form a word where you want them, an issue I have often found is that I make a wrong selection but get some of the word right, so it would be good say if I made a wrong selection at the beginning to be able to choose to remove that and put another selection in its place without having to deselect everything after the bad selection, so it just needs to be more flexible.
I am using an iPhone x.

Hi Alex,

Sorry again for the late reply. I get the suggestion now, thanks for the clarification! I will definitely implement this!

Best,
Klemens

As I understand it, those who don't use voiceover are only able to deselect the last moves they made in order, most recent to first in the making of the word. I'd move to suggest we don't need "special treatment'"as it were, being able to select in any order unlike those not using Voiceover. Further, maybe a way to make it easier to deselect last selection is to use the scrub gesture, the same one used to activate back buttons, as it can feel much like erasing text.

Hi Paul,
The suggestion about the scrubbing is great, makes definitely more sense then using it to access the back button. But do you have any idea how to communicate the change? I think people might get confused if they play again and this gesture has changed.
About the deselection for non-VoiceOver users: They actually can deselect any bubble, I just haven't figured out how to make it work for VoiceOver users (before Alex gave the trivial idea with the rotor). I will definitely add it as soon as possible, super sorry that it isn't there yet.

Best,
Klemens

I actually don't use that scrub gesture I can't get it to trigger consistently, plus I think it would be slower to use it than flicking down on the rotor actions menu and double tapping to remove selections.

Is it possible to play Subwords on a braille display with speech muted? I like to read Audible books and play at the same time.
Thanks in advance.

I bought this game this morning and can confirm that it works like a dream with speech musted and just using braille. Looks like I've answered my own question.
