Actually, you can only see that screen of past words at all if you pony up $1. Letterpress itself is free; a $1 in-app purchase unlocks that option, along with other color themes and the ability to play more than two games at once. You'll want to spend that extra buck.

My few quibbles are minor. The truth is, none of my suggestions would impact how fun Letterpress is, which is to say: very. Fans of word games won't be disappointed. If you're starting to tire of , or just want additional word-focused fun, Letterpress deserves your attention.
