If you like those friend word games then this new game by Chillingo will be right up your alley. It mixes the word games with horse racing! Word Derby pits you against up to four people. Simply put – you are trying to get the best word scores to advance your horse to the finish line. You place a wager on your race and start putting together words. As the race progresses you get experience points to use bombs and have the game figure out a word for you to use. The first one to the finish line wins.
