Textropolis is Just My Speed

There are a lot of word games on the iTunes App Store. As a long time player of board games like Scrabble and Boggle, this makes me happy. A lot of these games though focus on mimicing the free flash and online games that are similar to Boggle. These focus on spelling words from a random set of letters within a certain time frame.
What's nice about Textropolis is that it has no timer. The base mechanic is finding words from sets of letters, but it effectively has levels for you to challeng and beat. Each of these challenges is in the guise of a city. You then have to find all the words for that city, though the names are cropped down to a max word length common for all the city names. You know how many word combinations there are for each. The game also tells you the definition for each word you enter, which I find very nice.
