Dabble HD, Tablet Edition
Dabble, the hottest new word game for Android smartphones -- has come to the tablet! This HD edition is optimized for display on 7" tablets. Now, you can play the fast-thinking game that everyone is talking about on an Android smartphone or tablet device. From the crisp and clear high-definition graphics to the addicting game-play, you won't want to put Dabble HD down.
Think Fast
Dabble HD is the kind of game that is as simple as it is challenging. It rewards players with quick wits, a large vocabulary, and perfect spelling. You have to be on your toes, since the goal of the game is to spell out five separate words with just 20 letters as quickly as possible. The trick is that the five words must be comprised of a two-letter, three-letter, four-letter, five-letter, and six-letter word. You don't have to complete all five words to score, just try your best. But remember, the more words you complete, and the quicker you do it, the higher your score.
Arrange 20 letters to make five words
Unlock badges and beat your high scores
Move Letters and Form Words
Game-play is easy! At the beginning, you will see 20 tiles, each with a letter and a point value. The tiles are already configured in rows, and all you have to do is drag and drop the letters to form words. As you do, the tiles turn blue and you gain points. Form all five words within five minutes or less to win. If you get stuck, you can tap the Solve button to see the solution. If you get really stuck, you can tap the restart button for a new game board.
Earn Badges and Awards
When you first launch Dabble HD, you can enter your name to track your best times and scores. If you share your device with family or friends, you can add up to four additional users, and change users during the first 30 seconds of the game. As you play, you'll have the chance to earn badges for win streaks, fast times, and high scores. You can also view your top five high scores overall and for longest win streaks and fastest times. Challenge yourself to unlock all of the badges and beat your top scores!
An Award-winning Game
Dabble has rightfully earned its fair share of praise, including the following awards:
- Dr. Toy's 10 Best Games 2011
- Dr. Toy's 100 Best Children's Products 2011
- Creative Child Magazine's Word Game of The Year 2011

Well when I saw yuletide7 review it made me wander, what is in this app? So I looked...
1. Adware: AdKnowledge, InMobi and Inneractive.
2. Analytics: Flurry
3. Developer Tools: Corona, Facebook and Zong.
4. Social Gaming: OpenFeint and Papaya Social.
That's alot of stuff for something that is a paid app.
The game itself is good, I would give it 4* if it wasn't for the Adware and Analytics. If something is paid for these things shouldn't be in the app.
The way I see it, is if you pay for something it should be Adware and Analytic FREE. As long as all of us let them get away with this they'll keep doing it.
It use to be the norm on PC's till enough people stood up and said BOYCOTT these devs with shady/lazy practices. It's your privacy, so how much you put up with is your own personal decision. Just remember nothing is really free on the internet, except debugging apps for the devs. Otherwise there's usually a surprise like adware and or analytics.
I'm not a paranoid privacy nut, I just like a level playing field for people who are not tech/program savy. Their usually the biggest victims because their not very informed about shady practices.
I will try to evaluate apps here for adware and analytics, plus any toys they may have left in the app, but I'm a busy guy. So I won't have time to look at faotd everyday.
If you wonder how I look at these apps, I have a Linux computer I write programs on. The Android OS is a form of Linux.

Fun to play most of the time, but there are some commonly spelled words that it won't accept. Reconsider what dictionary should be used, maybe this rating will be upgraded.

I really enjoyed this game. Strangely addictive.....I meant to play it for just a minute & ended up playing for over an hour the first time. I like how there are multiple words that you can come up with, so you're not locked in to a particular solution. There are badges you can earn for completing a level quickly, or getting high points, etc.

fun quick game
Enjoy playing dabble HD. Each set of letters provided lots of possible words. The tricky part was to get higher point letters into longer words to increase your score.

Simple but fun
This is an easy game to play but challenging enough to keep you coming back again and again. It requires a good vocabulary and spelling skills are important.

Love this game. It gets the brain working overtime. Play this game at night when it needs a boost. I never rate any game a five star, but it is great.

Don't get frustrated
This game is fun once you get the hang of it. It takes time to understand and you are on a timer. Read the help menu first and it will make it a little easier to learn. Read more
