  • Nice game to stimulate your brain

    I like playing this game … it stimulates your thoughts and challenging but just hate the more than usual frequent ads that now started to show up and don’t like how stingy they are with coin rewards for each level… a hint costs 500 coins and you only get 35 coins for each level completed !?!
  • SQUASH THE BUGS PLEASE

    Okay so I’m going to start off by saying that this game honestly would get a full five stars from me for its uniqueness and challenging/fun gameplay. I have been hooked ever since I started playing THIS MORNING. Yeah, after level 9 the ads started getting obnoxious, but I was more than happy to pay the $1.99 to remove them. Haven’t had a single ad pop up since. The issue, however, is the fact that I’m unable to interact with other players at all. Either nothing happens when I tap on someone, or I’m told I have a network error (which is not the case). I can’t communicate with people on my team, and I can’t challenge other players.

    I’m also a bit salty about the fact that I won the tournament by a landslide, having last checked the standings with 13 minutes left. I wish I would’ve taken a screenshot, but oh well. I was given exactly one coin for “participation” and the tournament just started itself over without honoring my victory. Which is a bit annoying, especially if that’s just going to happen over and over.

    I still sincerely enjoy playing this game THAT much though that I’ll continue to do so just for the fun of the levels, but I know eventually I’m going to hit some kind of brick wall glitch.

    DEVELOPERS PLEASE COME BACK AND FIX IT BECAUSE IT IS ACTUALLY A WONDERFUL GAME AND I WANNA EXPERIENCE THE WHOLE THING

    I’m a sucker for word games especially unique & challenging ones- I’m not talking about the million versions of how many words can you make from these letters - just presented differently I don’t care how they do it they’re all the same or the different versions of scrabble - gets old quick - games like this take components of crossword, scrabble , how many words and spin it in their own completely different unique way. Word buddies is def my new addiction - thank you for taking the time to create something new unique and fun - bonus for a story line and boosters that help but aren’t required to win. I’m sure as I progress I’ll be spending cash to move forward as I’m not the most patient player but props for not making me spend $ or sit through 30+ second ads right from the start !!

  • Too Many Glitches

    I would give it 0 stars if I could but let’s just say the one star is for the game concept. The game is fun to play…. When you can play it. There are so many ads I cannot even enjoy this game. Evey other turn while in a board seems there is an ad. Then for the extra letter that’s flying by watch another ad (I can get that one, watch this ad and get this xtra) But it’s the ads that keep playing while you already on a board that are frustrating. Then I am on a Team that is apparently now dead (I seem to be the only one on it) But I can’t leave it. Keeps telling me network error when my network is fine. Won’t let me get the daily 5 bonuses you can get from watching ads. Shows I’m offline when I’m not. When ads play when they are done my screen goes black and I am having to blindly tap around the top of the screen until the ad disappears. I am not having any offline or this issue with the ads going to blackscreen on any other game I play. I am done.. this game has become too frustrating to play.

  • Great, but...

    Love the idea. Hate all the ads, will not pay to remove. Piggy bank should be free when filled.. with all the ads this uses, the devs should have plenty of money to have an all free game. Also, lvl 299 .. there is dL, no dw. Tried 3 times... what’s wrong with this lvl. I saw others have probs w it too. Would love to continue playing, but if no way to get passed this, will delete. Plz respond in kind about how to fix lvl 299, consider free play with as much ads as y’all use.

  • Fun Word Game

    I am enjoying this game. However there is one pet peeve that I have about this game and so many others. You play the game and “collect” coins that go into a piggy bank of some description. Then to access the coins you’ve earned through playing the game and watching numerous ads to get to the next screen you’re encouraged to pay $2.99 to “open” your piggy bank.

    I understand wanting to make money, but come on! The consumer/player of your game is already watching ads for which the company/maker of the game is receiving money. Just don’t offer me the coins if I have to pay to bust ‘em out of the piggy bank. Annoying!

    Otherwise, the game is fun. Love the graphics, puzzles, etc.

  • Bait & Switch by Developers

    I used to enjoy this game, enough so that I paid the one time fee to play ad-free. However, since you’ve updated the app, the letters provided typically include only one vowel, necessitating the player to watch an ad to receive a free tile. Or the letters on the player’s rack will be so awful that the player is forced to watch an ad or pay for the boxing glove assist to replace chosen letters. I find it impossible to play without watching constantly ads or continuously paying money. I am sad to say goodbye to what was once a favorite game, but it feels like the developers pulled a bait & switch, offering a price to play the game ad-free and then forcing an update that now negates what was promised, in an underhanded way.

    This is a great game and is very challenging. The only thing that would be nice is not having the ads during a game after receiving new tiles. It is very distracting especially when you are trying to think of the next word. I have tried other scrabble games but really like the format of this game.
  • I’m addicted!!!

    I flipping love this game!!!! I have it set up to where I can play it on my phone while I’m away and on my iPad when I’m at home - don’t lose any levels!!! Plenty of opportunities to get coins and bonuses looking forward to the new update!!

    Well I was addicted til the update!! It’s nearly impossible to win a game now!! Play for days now on one level!! Not impressed anymore!! 🤨

  • I like optional adds

    So for the game itself, I love it it super fun the only thing I’m not happy about is I no longer have the option to watch a video for an extra free move or to get new letters. I know have to use the coins I earn and the amount needed for hints or boxing gloves it huge 900 coins for the 3 boxing gloves, 1500 for 3 hints and I can’t remember how much for the free letter. Please bring that option back!!!
