Question 1

What is SpellBurst?

Accepted Answer

SpellBurst is a word puzzle game that combines word-building with match-3 mechanics. Players spell words on a 7×11 grid of letter tiles, where longer words create special power tiles that clear the board in cascading chain reactions. It features level-based progression.

Question 2

How do you play SpellBurst?

Accepted Answer

Drag across adjacent tiles or tap them one by one to spell words on a 7×11 letter grid. Letters connect horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. When you submit a valid word, those tiles disappear and new letters drop from the top. Power tiles activate when used in a word, hit by another power tile, or when they land on the bottom row — creating cascading chain reactions.

Question 3

Is SpellBurst free to play?

Accepted Answer

Yes, SpellBurst is free to download and play. All levels can be completed without spending money. You earn boosters through gameplay, and optional in-app purchases are available if you want more.

Question 4

What platforms is SpellBurst available on?

Accepted Answer

SpellBurst is available on iOS via TestFlight and on Android via Google Play. The game is currently in alpha testing.

Question 5

How do power tiles work in SpellBurst?

Accepted Answer

Power tiles are created by spelling longer words. 4-letter words create a Sunburst that clears a 3×3 area, 5-letter words create a Tsunami that clears an entire row, and 6+ letter words create a Flamestrike that clears an entire column. Power tiles activate when used in a word, caught in another power tile's area of effect, or when they drop to the bottom row.

Question 6

What are chain reactions in SpellBurst?

Accepted Answer

Chain reactions happen when one power tile's activation hits another power tile, triggering it too. For example, a Tsunami clearing a row can activate a Sunburst sitting in that row, which explodes and hits a Flamestrike, which clears an entire column. One word can set off a chain that transforms the whole board. Chain 3 activations in a single move for a SUPER! combo bonus, or 5 for an EPIC! combo — and bigger words earn bigger combo rewards.
