The “Friends” in Words With Friends is used somewhat loosely, as you’re able to compete against complete strangers in this wildly popular word game that borrows pretty heavily from Scrabble. You can carry on up to 20 simultaneous matches, too — the game will send you notification messages when it’s your turn. You can connect the game with your Facebook account to play against your real(er) friends, and games you start on your iPhone can be finished up on an iPad or iPod Touch. Don’t scoff: Once you get addicted to Words With Friends, you’ll have several of those devices scattered around the house so you’re never too far away from countering one of your many opponents’ turns.
