WORD TRANSFORMER (This game has been licensed from NOVEL GAMES)

The aim of this game is to transform one word into another by changing one character at a time.
At the start of a level, you will be given a word and a target word. Each time you can click a character to change it into another character in such a way that the characters still form of valid word.
Continue changing the characters until you arrive at the target word, and then you can proceed to the next level.
In some levels you can also add or remove characters at the end or beginning of the word.
If you cannot reach the target word within the time limit, then you lose and the game is over.
There are a total of 20 levels and the words will be longer and the steps required will be more for later levels. The fewer the steps and the faster the time you take to arrive at the target word, the higher your score.

WORD SCRAMBLER III (This game has been licensed from NOVEL GAMES)

The letters are scrambled and you need to unscramble them to get a correct word.
You always need to use all the characters to form a word, and there are no hints.
If you cannot figure out how to form a valid word, you can skip the word and try the next.
You can always see the characters of the next few words, so if you are confident that you can solve the next word,
you can skip the current word and complete the next one.
The more characters there are in a word, the higher the score you will get if you can unscramble that word.
There is a 5-minute time limit in the game, try to solve as many long words as possible within those 5 minutes.
