What Makes 4 Little Squares Stand Out
Look at small fragments of a photo and try to guess the word. This sounds easy, but some puzzles can be tricky! You must look at the details of each image! If you like quiz and word games, you'll enjoy this fantastic brain teaser.
FEATURES:
• You can skip words and come back to them later.
• The pictures are revealed one by one. Guess the word with less pics and earn extra coins!
• Play in English, French, Russian, German or Spanish: great tool if you're learning a foreign language!
Enjoy this simple and highly addictive game for the whole family!
This Word game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
This game is so much fun. Its challenging at times. We would recommend this game.
This is a very fun, amusing and,entertaining game.
If you like puzzle game you love this game and love word game you love this game.
Fun, challenging, and we like it.
One of the best games we've played in a while.
One of the best word games out there.
Awesome game play with our girlfriend all night.
We have only had this game for a day and we already love it. It is challenging, which makes it fun! Buy it! It's free.
Fun but really tough sometimes.
We like the idea of the moving squares. Great play on that other picture word game. It's challenging.
Even the simplest object can be hard to discern when only a small portion is revealed. This game challenges you to change your perspective.
Fun game and am enjoying it!!! Difficult to solve many of them but am getting the hang of it.
Fun and torture at the same time.
This game is awesome it makes you think but not too much.
Something to do when we have a few minutes to unwind.
Sometimes we will get the answer right away yet other times not so we are always drawn back to the game by the challenging pictures! Fun to play with a small group too.
Pretty interesting. Keeps the mind working.
This game will help pass the time lol.
Challenging but some of the pictures are blurry and frustrating.
The game is much more challenging than other puzzle games. Nice job.
So far like the game easy but not to easy.
We've just been playing for a week and we really enjoy it. Pictures are great, no timed guess, and the letters below help make the guessing just a little easier. We love it.
Great game, easy but hard sometimes. Watch out.
We really like this game! It makes us think and use every clue possible to figure the pics out! We're not the one to skip the mystery pictures very often. We like the challenge.
It's a grate game!! Love playing! But some are hard and take a few min to figure them out.
Love it, love the challenge! Can't stop playing.
We like to try and guess before we use all the pictures. Need background knowledge for some.
Lots of fun! Not as easy as one might think.
These are the best mind excerise you'll need.
Very fun game. Great for whole family.
We really like this game although If we get stuck on a pic it could take days before we solve it. This game keeps the mind sharp.
So far most challenging of the Second Gear games. Our only complaint with some of their games is the misspelled words at times, which can make it more difficult to solve a puzzle.
Some pictures are hard to see without all 4 parts but for the most part they are fairly easy so far anyway.
Lots of fun & a joy to play with others.
Some challenges but mainly a lot of fun. Good to do with a friend or alone.
We are writing our first ever review! Whooooooohooooooo.
This game gives the player enough success to feel excited but enough challenging puzzles to prevent getting bored.
Love this game. Great when you have a few minutes to relax and catch your breath.
We are really loving it! There have only been a few we have had to skip, so far. We are one of those who refuses to spend gads of money on coins. We prefer to earn them the honest way. Playing the game itself. If the game gets rediculous, we will come back and change our review.
Enjoyable game, great for passing time.
It's a good game to sit back and relax.
Keeps everyone busy around here.
Get this app – you won't be sorry.
This game is very family friendly and great for bonding.
Def helps pass the time, works the brain.
Fun to kill time with, some are pretty challenging.
Love the game! Needs more levels.
Is harder than 4 pics one word in our opinion.
Very fun and exciting game!!! LOVE IT.
