Snap Attack is a free Windows 8 Scrabble game with a new and unique concept. In this game you are given 150 seconds for each round to make as many words (called “snaps”) as possible. The board has some fixed letter (in Black tiles). You need to use other colored letter tiles, and attach them to these fixed tiles to make words. The snaps should be valid words to score points. You can make words from left to right or top to bottom.
The crown jewel of this app is that players from around the world compete on same board, using the same clock as yours. At the end of each round, a real time Xbox leaderboard shows how all the participants ranked by score. You can even check the snaps made by different players.
