A third thing that I enjoy about Wordology is the fact that the dictionary is expansive and almost all-inclusive. While I already talked about the infinite game play, the fact that you can use almost any English word makes that game play even better. Slurve, Liger, and Motherboard were all accepted by the internal dictionary. Only a few words were missed, and most of those were either technical or words that you wouldn't want to say in front of your mother. In almost every other word-based game, both for the iPhone and for regular gaming devices, I run into limits where I know more than the dictionary; with Wordology, I never had that issue.
I know, I know, I keep on talking about the positives of Wordology, how about the negatives. Well, there are none ... sorry ...
Overall, I really enjoyed playing around with Wordology on my iPhone. Sure, I was frustrated when I couldn't find a word and lost the game, but the actual game was engrossing and amusing. This, combined with the infinite game play, and the amazingly smooth UI, makes me really enjoy this game. While I like some of the other words game on the iPhone and iPod Touch, Wordology is my new favorite, and it merits:

Your rave review *almost* convinced me to spend the $2.99 on Wordology without checking it out for myself!
At the last second, I installed the free Wordology Lite instead, and I'll see how it goes. :-)

And after playing through two levels in the free version, I'm spending the $2.99. Great recommendation!
