Another word game has just hit the mobile app stores. But instead of plain tiles of letters or cosy cats motivating you to practise and improve your vocabulary, it’s a fox that’s on a mission. Rico the Fox is an adorable red fox with big bright green eyes who will test your wits.
What’s Rico the Fox up to?
Rico is a cunning and adventurous fox on a quest to crack open any safe he sets his eyes on. With him, you solve puzzles, find hidden words and uncover treasures. The puzzles are word puzzles which aren’t that conventional either.
You start by swiping letters to form words and the puzzles get trickier the further you go. In a crossword game, you fill in the boxes with letters to form meaningful words. But in Rico the Fox, you move the whole row or column of letters until you get the correct order of letters that form a meaningful word.
Rico the Fox starts his treasure hunt by going through a map and finding out the correct location where the treasures or safes are. Once he reaches the location, he finds vaults that are filled with treasures like coins and points.
So, you solve the given word puzzle to unlock the vaults and snag the treasures. Finding hidden words along the way gives you extra rewards. The game also offers hints and power-ups to help when you hit one of those moments where your brain just refuses to cooperate.
It Looks Cute
Apart from being a fun game, Rico’s world looks amazing too. The hand-drawn visuals bring his adventure to life especially when he’s sneaking through forests. In fact, during his expeditions, Rico the Fox wears a black cape and black goggles that make him look part-superfox and part-thief.
The game has different modes like regular and timed modes. You can also play it offline without any internet connection. So, check out Rico the Fox on the Google Play Store; it’s free to play.
