“Played it for 2 hours non-stop after I got it. For the 5th star they need to get the rest of German changed to English in their GUI. OK they cleaned up the language problem! This is a must play.”
- iPoddian Maximus

You’re looking at the screen and your mind is racing through possible words that you can make from the letters sitting there. With a fingertip, you drag and drop this letter and that to build a great scoring word in just a few seconds flat.

When you first started playing Durion, you didn’t always come in under the timer but the more you play, the faster and sharper your mind seems to get. You’ve got speed and strategy, now. You’ve got game!

If you want an idea of how to play Durion, think Scrabble on steroids. You’ve got only five seconds to make the highest scoring word you can from the letters you’re given before letters disappear and are replaced by new ones.

Don’t worry if you don’t like one of the letters. Just throw it away, but take care! They produce minus points and you lose your score multiplier, which only appears and raises if you create one correct word right after the other. This multiplier may increase your word values to a much higher level.

After you’ve played Durion for a bit, you’ll develop a personal strategy that will help you play longer and collect more points. This is important because the more correct words you form, the more your playing time increases. Be warned though, after a certain time, letters will appear faster. Think you can keep up?

Keep honing your skills, mighty word builder and you can get your name on the national and international scoreboards for the world to see.

Thanks for all the improvements between 1.x and 2.x. On a whim I did a search to see if the game was still around/updated. Smooth, polished strategy word game!
Id love to see an update to this app. My sister and I were dangerously addicted to getting the biggest scores possible.

Some bad moments

I know this was originally made in Germany, but we use an occasional vowel in the English language. I got over twenty letters without a vowel.
