LuckyWheel

drops — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 18:30:01 +0000

Do you like guessing games? Do you like spinning a wheel? Then LuckyWheel is the game for you.

Play alone or up to two additional players for the victory.

Turn the wheel and try not to hit bankrupt or sit out and with the correct letters the victory is yours.

Do you speak other Languages? LuckyWheel boasts hundreds of puzzle proverbs in English, German, Spanish, Dutch, French and Italian.

LuckyWheel already received a review on FingerGaming. LuckyWheel went public on the same day as “Wheel of Fortune” by Sony which aims to mimic the mechanics of the TV show by the same name. In contrast we did not try to copy something, but create a unique approach. Make a game that uses the strength of the touch interface and fill it up to the brim with proverbs in English, German, Spanish, French, Italian and Dutch.

They say:

“LuckyWheel additionally boasts a feature that Wheel of Fortune doesn’t include in any capacity — a fully fledged German-language option, complete with a localized puzzle selection full of German proverbs.”

“[...] LuckyWheel offers gameplay variety that Wheel of Fortune could never dream of.”

“LuckyWheel is a good protest purchase if you want to voice your disappointment in Wheel of Fortune[...]“

We have promo codes available, valid on the US app store which we’ll happily provide to anyone who would like to write a review about any of our applications.
