I'm not sure if this is related or not, but the symptoms seem too similar to not comment....

With the blabble game in the store if you play the game (eg, start it, then start finding words as fast as you can by tap, dragging and lifting), after a while the UI gets stuck where several tiles are highlighted after you lift your finger and you can't tap anything any more (this UI state is not supposed to be possible-- when you lift your finger the word is processed and the tiles reset to normal colors-- it is like the app lost tap events). Using the power button to off/on or side swiping to bring up the spread and selecting blabble makes the app responsive again. This game has been in the store more than a year and a half and this did not start happening until recent updates. Seen on mako and arale on post-OTA6 rc-proposed.

Unfortunately, it is hard to reproduce-- when it happens, it usually happens a few times in close succession and then you might not see it again for minutes.
