It's case sensitive and has related problems in finding words. Entering all lowercase letters recommended.
While I'm sure it was a fun exercise to build it and there will most likely even be "helper apps" appearing on the App Store soon, I frown upon these. Letterpress will lose a lot of its fun once cheating takes over.
- rimantas 14y agoI was thinking that an app where you could take a picture of letterpress screen and it would use that and with some strategy (in terms of defending letters) would be fun project to make. Maybe more than playing the game :)
- flixic 14y agoI have done that with Spelltower (: https://github.com/flixic/spelltower https://github.com/flixic/spelltower
- Hovertruck 14y agoI think the solution is just to only play with friends who you know aren't cheating.
- greenmountin 14y agoFrom my experience cheating, it would help to restrict words to 7 letters. Then the blocking rules would be more strategic, and at least the AI would be more fun to make.
- flixic 14y agoYes, but it would still be fairly easy. My AI is already not trying to use the longest word, but instead tries to secure as many tiles as possible. In many cases it means using shorter words that have just the right letters.
