We can never get enough of card games, as evidenced by the numerous card apps out there, and word games had been there since time immemorial entertaining us during our down times with friends and family. So it was just a matter of time that a game with these two aspects is introduced to make a lot of people happy. Balified – Word Game of the Gods is exactly this, and then some.

General vocabulary is a must when playing Balified but to win against sharp opponents, you must go beyond the mundane and construct more impressive words. To play, you must stack up cards with letters on them on top of each other, and the longer and more complicated your words are, the bigger the points you get.  But it doesn’t end there. Wild cards can show up and tricks to steal a letter or words from your opponents are possible, so have a trick or two handy to be able to add to your own. There are also four special actions embedded in the game so you need to strategize on how to use this at the right time to gain advantage.

Another unique feature of Balified is the graphics. From the deck to the background, the game will give you a tour of Bali — it’s amazing islands, the picturesque sunsets, serene temples and even the naughty inhabitants (hint: the cute ones with tails).

Balified – Word Game of the Gods is a social game so you can share the excitement with your friends in Facebook or random gamers across continents. For non-English speaking users, the game also comes with many different language dictionaries. If you prefer playing solo, you can stitch to single player mode anytime and you will be paired up with Balified Master Ulu.

From something that evolved from a card game in the 1950’s, this game is a hit in this millennium.

Balified – Word Game of the Gods can be downloaded free in the App Store and users can purchase coins for $0.99.
