About Around the Words
Around the Words is a word game in which you help jellyfish by forming words from the letters on their bodies. Find as many words as possible on the grid; each wave brings new jellyfish, giving you more chances to make longer, more complex words and score more points. The game has thousands of possible word combinations, using an English-only dictionary.
Levels and bonuses
You face challenges across 100 levels set in colorful locations around the world, including Mexico, Japan and France. Freeze and joker bonuses can help you find words, and quick, skillful play is needed to meet the challenges.
Game modes
- Wordsearch: Find the number of words required by the objective.
- Survival: Hold out for a set number of waves.
- Rescue: Save the required number of jellyfish.
- Hangman: Guess the word using the jellyfish on the grid.
