WordFreak Pro for the iPhone and iPod Touch Video Review

I enjoy watching/playing GSN's Lingo from time to time, so when I saw the familiar five-letter word-matching style in WordFreak Pro, I was intrigued. Unfortunately, the initial interest didn't last. Without any instruction, it is a little difficult to figure out how to even make a word guess. Then once you do, there are no audio clues, or much else to make the game exciting, or add to the replayability. Each "round" consists of guessing just one word. 

While networked challenges are a nice feature, integration with GameCenter or OpenFeint would be a huge improvement. More of a proof of concept than full game, WordFreak Pro needs more detail to become a top word game.

Here's a look:
