    If you happen to want to try a picture/word video game with friends, pick it up for just two bucks as it might work in that setting, but for the most part, I must unfortunately suggest that most players pass on the title – even keeping in mind the low price point.

    By any reasonable measure, it's a little (okay, a lot) lacking. A limited number of words, in a limited number of game modes, and not-so-great controls: that's about as incomplete a package as you could ever find.

    With a much larger collection of words and maybe a couple more ways to play, uWordsmith could be a very solid, brain-based party game. As it stands now, however, its lack of vocabulary is a telling blow that makes it hard to find the words to recommend it.

    It's simply a game, and one that doesn't offer much to do.

    Unless uWordsmith is updated to add more puzzles and possibly other content, I cannot recommend the game.
