Spellwood is a Scrabble-esque video game developed by Three Rings and published by Sega for iOS and Android devices in December 2012. In the game, you lay out tiles to spell words against an opponent. Both of you have life meters. The longer the word, the more health the other player loses; you win if you drain your opponent's meter.

A free version, Spellwood Lite, was released in 2013.[6][7]

The game was removed from sale in mid-2016.
