Jambalaya now offers quick, action packed gameplay whether you're teaming up for tabletop play or going solo on a handheld device. Use your finger to connect letters and form words by drawing a line across the screen. Drag and reorganize your tiles to create space or find new words; give your device a shake to scramble the tiles at random. Get ready for an addictive and challenging word game experience!

Gameplay
-----------
You have 2 minutes to accumulate as many points as possiblesimple, huh?

Each letter is worth 10 points. The longer the word, the more points you get. Bonus points are awarded for 4 letter words or longer. The more long words you get in a row, the bigger your bonus; as soon as you make a short or invalid word, the bonus scoring ends. Words need to be 3 letters or longer to be valid; each word will only be counted once.So go forth, make long words and score big!

Jambalaya featured in Ars Technica and AppCraver

"One iPad feature, multi-touch, allows the tablet to be insanely intuitive. Fastspot gets that. In a world used to clicking and pointing, Jambalaya delivers you the feel of tiles on a table, and the adrenaline of classic timed word-find games like boggle." - AppCraver

Jambalaya is a neat game where you simply re-arrange tiles on the screen to make words. Tilting the iPad re-arranges your letters, allowing you to kick-start your head if you start to freeze up. Perfectly priced at $2.99." - Ars Technica

What's New in Version 2.2

• New in-app purchase for Endless Play Mode a whole new way to play Jambalaya. Players are free to make as many words as they can with limitless time; instead of a timer, there is a word count that counts down to zero as players attempt to find every possible word in the letter set. Only 99 cents!

• 5 new Game Center Achievements

• Play music in other applications while playing Jambalaya

• Bug fixes / iOS5 compatibility

It's the best (4 stars)
Currently, it's the best out there!

Fun! (4 stars)
Pretty fun and entertaining game. Good design and works very fast and stable on my iPhone.

Very Nice. (3 stars)
Would be excellent, if it kept a list of high scores without the game center.
