Jackbox Games releases Word Puttz on iOS, Android

You Don’t Know Jack developer Jackbox Games has announced the launch of Word Puttz on mobile, combining word games with a miniature golf course. In each level, the game challenges players to create words to form a path the golf ball can take to the hole, earning points related to the quality of their words.

“Word Puttz is our own twisted spin on the genre,” said Mike Bilder, GM of Jackbox Games. “After some hard work in the studio, we’re confident that Word Puttz will be the only octopus-hosted, wordtile/mini-golf mashup you’ll ever play.”

In each stage, players are given a starting letter, and must build words horizontally and vertically until one letter overlaps the hole.
