Moggle

Boggle-like word game built with meteor.

Moggle is like boggle - You have 3 minutes to find as many words as possible using the 16 letters in the grid. You may start your word on any letter, but you can only use letters adjacent to each other. You may not repeat any letters. Words must be 3 letters or longer.

In real boggle, the letters are on 16 dice. The dice positions are shuffled as well as the dice orientation wich leaves approximately 2^72 potential boggle boards.

##Playing Moggle Click and drag (or touch and drag) to select words.

When the timer reaches 0:00, the game will and and your score will be displayed.

Don't worry about accidentally selecting non-words or wrong letters. These will be ignored.

moggle's Issues

Keeping Score

Game is looking really good. i had a small issue with usability though.
One feature that might encourage more play is a display of your previous N games on the side.
That way you can have an idea if you have played the person opposite you before and whether you have been winning or losing of late.

Word definitions

Love the game Aidan.
On a constructive note, definitions could be an added extra...
