Play Throw in the Vowel - a new, original word game for Kindle.

Create words by combining the correct sets of letters from two columns. Just select a word's vowels and their matching consonants, and then watch as the completed word appears onscreen. You don't need to rearrange any letters, since the letters from each column occur in the same order as in the completed word. (You'd match RPTN with EUIO to form ERUPTION.) The easy-to-play, matching-game format means no text entry is required. And the excitement increases as the game progresses and a tower of words grows higher.

The game will reveal a correct match if you get stuck, and it even dispenses encouraging comments. See if you can play a perfect game (no mismatches)! Exercise your mind. Can you form all 750 words?

It's perfect for anyone who loves words, word games, brain teasers, or a challenging game to play!

    I find this game difficult. When I feel like it I do it by process of elimimation. The concept is ok

    This game is so addictive, it's really fun. Recommended for anyone that wants to be challenged and still have a good time - it can be a bit frustrating when you can't figure out a word, but when you "see" it, you'll smack your forehead with a big DUH! This has become one of my favorites!
  • Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2013
    This game is sometimes challenging, but there is no time limit and once you finish one set of words, the game is over, so there is no progression where you can beat your previous score or any challenge like that.

    I purchased this game, tried playing it for a couple of weeks, and then deleted it from my Kindle. I thought the game was not fun, just difficult.
    My preference is for a game called "Jigsaw Words" by Amazon Digital Services.

    It took me a while to really catch on to how it conencted but once i did I find myself unable to put it down, literally. I have gone through the whole game once.....and am now on my second go round but still have forgotten much...This game is one of th neatest and most different I have ever done..What is really crazy is I will think I have one word and yes I will have some of the vowels in an order but the word is as far away from the word i thought I had guess as anything...but the vowels fit the combination...crazy! This is clearly a older teen or adult game. There is no way young people without a great knowledge of words and in some cases just knowing endings of words -- like in a c on the end of a word - often a "i" will fit behind. if you have ng...often a 'ing' word. The consotonats that are Ot, or ET often can become OUT or EAT so you can start there which is interesting. Definitely a great word game if you are not into crosswords and get tired of word search. Jigsaw words is another fascinating one but I have done both of those and they are addictive too but I believe in a little way, this game tops those. I actually had to go on line to find several words for one of those puzzles, seriously.

    Felt that this one was rather cumbersome to use on a kindle.
    Slow, not that challenging or exciting. One of those that works better with paper and pen.
