Frequently Asked Questions

How do I play WordBrew?

Drag your finger across the letter wheel to connect letters and form words. Each level has a crossword grid that you need to fill by finding all the hidden words. The letters on the wheel are the only letters available — use them to spell words of 3 or more letters. Finding all required words completes the level and earns you stars and tea leaves.

What are tea leaves?

Tea leaves are WordBrew's in-game currency. You earn them by completing levels, finding bonus words, claiming daily login rewards, and watching rewarded ads. Spend tea leaves in the shop on cosmetic items like tile themes, trail effects, wheel skins, tea cups, font styles, sound packs, power-ups, and hints.

What are the power-ups?

WordBrew offers three power-ups:

What is the Piggy Bank?

The Piggy Bank automatically saves 10% of all tea leaves you earn during gameplay. When it reaches 500 tea leaves, you can "break" it for $0.99 to collect everything inside. After breaking, it resets and starts saving again. You can see your Piggy Bank balance on the main menu and in the shop.

How does the shop work?

From the main menu, tap the Shop button. Browse categories using the tab bar at the top: Themes, Trails, Wheels, Celebrations, Tea Cups, Fonts, Sounds, and Backgrounds. Items are purchased with tea leaves. Once purchased, tap "Equip" to use an item. Tea cups also have a gallery view where you can admire your collection and read about each tea tradition.

How do tea cup bonuses work?

Each tea cup in the collection gives a percentage bonus to tea leaves earned during gameplay, ranging from +5% (Simple Ceramic) to +30% (Imperial Dragon Cup). The bonus applies automatically when a cup is equipped. More expensive cups give higher bonuses.

How do I sync my progress across devices?

Go to Settings and tap "Sign in with Apple." Once signed in, your progress automatically syncs to iCloud. On a new device, sign in with the same Apple ID to restore your progress. The sync uses a "take the best" strategy — whichever device has more progress for any item wins, so you never lose stars, tea leaves, or unlocked cosmetics.

How do I unlock premium chapters?

Chapters 1–5 are free. Chapters 6–10 can be unlocked individually for $1.99 each, or all together with the Chapter Bundle for $4.99 (saving 50%). Premium chapters include Moonlit Terrace, Autumn Harvest, Winter Lodge, Cherry Blossom, and Master's Collection.

How do I restore my purchases?

If you reinstall the app or get a new device, your non-consumable purchases (ad removal, chapters) are automatically restored when you open the app, as they are tied to your Apple ID. Cosmetic items and tea leaf balances are restored through cloud sync if you sign in with Apple.

How do I delete my account and data?

Go to Settings → scroll to the Account section → tap "Delete Account." This will delete your cloud-synced data from iCloud. Your local progress on the current device will be preserved. To delete all local data, uninstall the app.
