The game is now available for free to anyone that wants to experience awesome gameplay. There is also an ad-free paid version which includes 1,000 in-game coins for players to spend on in-game power-ups like bombs, hints and customization items for their Chum.
“The Chums give everyone the ability to personalize their play experience,” said Tony Goodman, founder and CEO of PeopleFun. “We want the game to be available to everyone for free, and at the same time, offer more serious players the ability to get a head start on customizing their unique character. With Word Chums, even your Aunt Maude can dress up as an in-game duck with a pirate hat and a martini. It’s pretty fun to see how people choose to express themselves while enjoying the game.”
