It’s been just over two weeks ago that app developer Nimblebit called for beta-testers to put Letterpad through its paces on the iOS, and on Monday the group revealed that the word puzzler would be supported on the forthcoming Apple Watch.

Given a grid of nine letters, players must deduce a set amount of words from the letters for related topics. In the mockup from the developer pictured above, the word “Hawaii” would derive one of the six solutions as “SURF”. Over 200 puzzles will come stocked in the app and the developers have added in the ability for players to create and share their own puzzles.

Nimblebit is close to finishing Letterpad, but has not yet provided a release date or price point for iOS platforms, nor the Apple Watch.

Apple has not marketed the Apple Watch as a gaming platform, only pushing it as a notification, communication, and health device.

The Cupertino-based company has not yet announced a firm release date for the Apple Watch, only saying it will be “coming early 2015.”
