What's new in version 1.0.2

 

We hope these additions, changes, and fixes will improve your Word Tycoon experience! Thank you all for sharing your feedback and support and spreading the word about Word Tycoon.

 

New

  • Tycoon of the Week for the Daily Challenge will be spotlighted.

 

Changes

  • In order to be more clear the SKIP button has been renamed to HOLD.
  • The Combo Points awarded for selling 6-letter words have been increased by 4%. This allows you to sell two 6-letter words to reach the Buy a Pack bonus, bringing it in line with the other 2-word, 12-letter combinations that can be sold to reach that bonus from an empty Combo Bar. (8 & 4 letters; 7 & 5 letters).
  • The Bank had a bit of a face lift to make the Cost/Price of purchasing and selling cards clearer and distinct from the Net Profit value shown above the word being sold.
  • Score sharing now includes game-type specific messages, better visibility in your feeds, and tweets!

 

Fixes

  • The Combo Bar more accurately reflects the points earned. Previously, the combo bar would continue to fill up behind the lit up coins. This gave the impression that words sold in these boundary areas did not reward as many combo points as they actually did. The graphic has been improved to take the coins in to consideration. There have been no changes to the number of combo points earned per word-length, with the exception of the 4% increase for 6-letter words noted above.
  • The Timer now appears and operates correctly for Timed games.
  • Reduced many crashes and bugs, particularly related to switching between apps and long playing sessions of multiple games.
  • Improved graphics and animations. We'll continue to make Word Tycoon look as good as its gameplay.
  • Scoreboard loading has been improved.
