There are plenty of word games on the App Store, but the vast majority of them are all about English words, which isn't always the best for those who don't know the language that well. Happymagenta's Under a Spell, releasing this week, is moving beyond just English and adding 7 more languages to the mix. What the developers did was take their AI, feed it all kinds of texts—from books to movies to articles—and then develop an algorithm that dynamically constructs puzzles over handcrafted levels.
As the developers talk about in our Upcoming Games forum thread, the game has almost two thousand thoroughly tested handcrafted levels not just in English but also in languages like French, German, Italian, Russian, and more. And the more languages you play, the higher score you get. Sounds different from many other word games, and that's a good thing. The game is coming out April 5th, and you can read more about it in our forums.
