Dive into Befuddled
BE BEFUDDLED!
Are you a bookworm at heart? Befuddled is an all new word game that is a mix of puzzle games, crosswords, word search games, and much more! If you ever want to relax to a word game that has no timer and lets you get lost in strategic thinking, Befuddled is the game for you.
Form words by touching adjacent tiles in the grid. You can select tiles to the right, left, up, down, and diagonally.
As you submit words, the used up letters in the grid vanish, and tiles fall down from above to take their place.
When you reach higher levels, additional tile types (marble, jade, glass, and ruby) begin to fall, in addition to the original wood style. Words can only be spelled using a single tile type.

Hear from the Players – Befuddled Reviews
Find out what gamers are saying about Befuddled:
We’ve noticed that we’ve seen the same starting pattern of letters come up more than once. Its not really random.
We love the game, but its really annoying that theres no way to completely mute the game. We’ve turned the volume to the lowest setting, but you can still hear the click-click-click of the tiles, unless we mute our phone. This makes it impossible to sneak play at work. Otherwise, an excellent game. We’ve been looking for a replacement for AlphaBetty since they arent adding new levels anymore, and this works. Challenging, strategic, and we get to make words of our own choosing with as many letters as we can. Well worth the purchase price. It would be 5 stars if it allowed us to mute.
We turn the sound off on all our games. For some reason Befuddled only lets you turn it down, but not off. It is quite annoying. There is no website for support.
We put off updating our iPad because we were afraid our Bookworm game would not work anymore. But a well meaning relative updated our iPad to version 11.4.1. Sure enough, Bookworm no longer works in the new version. We downloaded this game a few years ago, and it is our favorite word game. Now we cannot play it at all! Please update this game. Many others have been requesting this too. Wow Word and Befuddled are very poor substitutes for the original game that we downloaded.
We cant believe the original bookworm game is not available on our new, upgraded iPhone!! We refused to buy an other brand of phone except an iPhone because we loved to play bookworm so much. Several of our grandchildren loved to sit down and play it with us or by themselves. These new versions of bookworm are a poor comparison to the old version!! Please make the original version available again!!!
Excellent for kids and adults.
This is one of our go to games when we want to unwind.
We can play this game for hours. It is not timed yet very challenging. We like word games that allow us to think and relax and not rush us to the next level. There is no other word game that can do this for us. Thank you.
Switched over to this game when we changed phones. We were looking for a replacement to the Bookworm app, which was our favorite game for our phone. We are enjoying this game. Just getting started so we’ll see how much we like it in the next few months.
This is a very entertaining game. It makes you think, challenges your vocabulary, and is never the same game twice. We have it on our iPod and iPad, so we can have eight different panels going at once!
Yeah! Changed our 1 star to 5 stars because volume’s fixed! Great game like bookworm without story & characters. Can use coins (not real money) to buy scramble, bombs, extra letters, etc. & don’t have to spend real money! You earn coins for end of each level. ***1 star comment: Can’t stand the noise!!! Volume doesn’t adjust through settings. New changes made us delete game. The blocks dropping sound is like nails on a chalkboard. We’ll find a different game to play, one you can mute!
We really like this game. It’s fun to play when we have a lot of time and also when we only have a few minutes.
Works fully on our new phone now — yay! :)
Don’t… Stop… Us… Now. We’re having a good time, we’re having a ball! (lyrics from Queen). Great improvements from last version. We like the ability to store and play multiple games. Red Robin on us next time!
Great game! Allows you to use your brain and those are the best games.
Good game to review your vocabulary.
We love this game. Great for playing on short breaks. We like having multiple games at a time. Don’t like that it does not rotate on screen and either give more coins or don’t charge as much for usage for specials.
Befuddled is a cross between a crossword and word-find puzzle, and more interesting than either!
Gets tough when you get to higher ranks.
This is a great game, perfect for playing in short bursts of downtime, but the constant pop-ups from Game Center are beyond annoying. Please at least give us the option to turn them off.
Look up word in the dictionary no longer works since updating to iOS 7 on our iPad. No keyboard appears to enter letters.
We hate pop ups – this game used to be fun – not anymore.
Will not rotate. Apple, please tell us when games require you to spend money to play!
Befuddled has been our favorite app since it debuted. Downloaded the latest upgrade and had a problem with it; wrote them a note and got a POLITE and HELPFUL message back right away. Then, a day later, an updated version that solved the problem completely! How often do you see that??
These were the worse changes ever. Don’t go for it. Updated on our iPhone but won’t do it on our iPad. Can we please get our older version back?
The new update has taken a simple, elegant and relaxing game and turned it into a complicated, nerve-wracking mess. Letters literally change while we’re trying to click on them. The whole underlying game has been changed and previous strategies have gone out the window. The game is now truly "Befuddling" and will be coming off our phone.
We are so disappointed with the new changes. It’s completely changed how you play the game. The worst part is the added tiles that you can’t use to start a word. Also the tiles with two or three letters on them is a joke. The game was so much better before the changes, it’s not even fun anymore just annoying. We played this game every day now we’ll have to find something else the change is just to frustrating.
One of our new favorite word games!
We can’t stop playing! ‘Nuf said!
One of the best games. Take your time to play. Requires thinking and strategy.
Fun, simple play that gives three categories of challenge and multiple levels within each category:)
Love this game!!! It’s very addicting.
Awesome for people who LOVE word games!!
Awesome game!!! Love it!!! Very addictive!!!
This game seems to never be the same thing twice.
Easy to learn and fun to learn for child and adult. Love no time limit!
Great game and pretty fun to play!!!
Im so addicted to this game! So crazy. Thanks kayla lulz!
This app gets the mind working!
We love to play this game before bed to unwind our brain… Great game!
Excellent game! Fun and something new. Very good support also.
