About Quotability

Quotability is a simple tile-based trivia game where you try to decipher famous quotes by unscrambling letters and placing letter tiles on the gameboard. I've been collecting inspiring and historical quotes for as far back as I can remember, and I used those as content for each of the puzzles.

"I love quotations because it is a joy to find thoughts one might have, beautifully expressed with much authority by someone recognized wiser than oneself." - Marlene Dietrich

How to Play

Tapping letter tiles in the GAMEBOARD will make those letters appear in the ANSWER area. To remove letters from the ANSWER area, tap the corresponding letter tile in the GAMEBOARD area. Each puzzle consists of a word set of two or three words that are contained in a famous or memorable quote. Keep an eye the clue, the title, and the category to help you solve each puzzle, and use the Reveal and Remove hints if you get stuck.

The first three puzzle packs are unlocked by completing the previous pack. After that, you'll choose which puzzle packs to unlock with your stars. After a puzzle pack is unlocked, you'll unlock each puzzle in succession by solving the preceding one. Each puzzle you solve earns you stars, and each hint you use consumes stars, so use them wisely to make sure that you have enough to unlock the next puzzle pack. You can always get more by tapping the star icon in the upper corner of game screens.

Availability

Quotability was built with the Android SDK and Android Studio. It's available through Google Play for Android devices. It's no longer being actively maintained, and the In-app purchase library used in the game has since been deprecated, so I'd expect Google to remove it from the Play Store by the end of 2021.

And this battle shall be the delicious mustard on that bread! The mustard of your doom!
