    I don't think I can justify buying the sequel with only 50% more moxie.

    Yes this is something that I've considered, but it makes some other aspects of the game more complex, including the scoring system, so I decided to leave it as is. In Moxie 2 though, I am adding a few more letters to the letter distribution and that may include another "Q" and "U" which will help.

    I made good progress on Moxie 2 this weekend:

    - finalized new card deck (now 64 letters vs. 52 in Moxie classic)
    - added 6-letter Moxie words
    - created new splash screen

    If all goes well, Moxie 2 will be released in April.

    Here's the new splash screen for Moxie 2. It's simple but functional.

    I really enjoy the Moxie app! What I love most is it's simplicity (and knowing how it came to be, after reading the recent Moxiegram).

    I truly hope the simplicity will be retained in the update! :)

    Congratulations on a brilliant game. I'm glad you're planning to retain the simplicity.

    It's probably too late for extra suggestions for Moxie 2, but here's a suggestion for Moxie 3!

    It would be handy if there was a drop-down list of the player names that have been used on the device, so putting your name on the high score table could be quicker and more consistent. This would be of particular use where two people play Moxie on the same machine and are feverishly competing for the top spot on the list.

    I'm also curious about how the Undo feature would work. Would the remaining letters be re-shuffled?

    Thanks for the great idea Alan.

    The undo feature will not shuffle the remaining letters. Instead you will be allowed only one undo per game.

    Hi everyone,

    I've been working hard trying to improve the graphics for Moxie 2. Here is a comparison of the old vs. the new. The old version is always shown first.

    Hi everyone,

    Moxie 2 is schedule for release in June after our current promotional campaign.

    I just finished work on the new "Undo" feature and I like it much better than I thought I would.

    Here's how it works:

    • You get unlimited undos
    • The first undo is free
    • The second undo costs you 30 points
    • The third undo costs you 60 points
    • The fourth undo costs you 90 points
    • etc, etc
    This should keep the playing field level for everyone.

    Share and enjoy,
