  • Lunchtimers Just Letters – The premise of this multi-player game by Lunchtimers is simple. Select from one of several available rooms. Users see a screen filled with jumbled letters, similar to the magnetic letters children place on kitchen refrigerators. But the game is not as simple as it appears. To play, move the letters around to spell out words or phrase. Other players are doing the very same thing, and as one player attempts to spell a word or phrase, another player moves the letters to spell a different word at the same time. This just-for-fun game is addictive and aggravating!
