A game that is cross between Wordament, Tetris, and Hexic.
It uses synchronized gameplay with an anonymous player community, gesture-based tile group matching, and leaderboards like Wordament
New tiles fall onto the game board like Tetris (rate of tile appearances can be adjusted to change the difficulty)
Tiles can be moved via a constrained mechanism like Hexic to allow players to set up larger groups worth more points.
