  • Developer spams you with ads even when you pay

    For some reason this developer feels entitled to charge you for an ad-free experience but also to phone home and spam you in the same apps advertising his other products. I was informed of this app by a huge, unavoidable ad chyron at the top of the Flip Flop app that I payed for (which, BTW, I can’t share—have to purchase for each device). I find that absolutely infuriating and will never give this developer another dime. I don’t understand why the developer feels he is entitled to more control of my device than I am and how he justifies lying about what are very, very clearly ads. He doesn’t even have the respect to give you the option of turning this “feature” off.

    Aside from aesthetic issues, there are very real privacy concerns. The only way my app can know the dev has a new product to hawk is if it is in constant contact with its creator. A game unconnected to an ad network has no business phoning home at all,ever—it is at the very least stealing your data for its own transmissions and very likely your personal info. Who knows what info the developer is collecting, how he stores it, and who he sells it to. Unfortunately, you can’t believe anything he says because he’s already established himself as a liar who will use you for his own ends.

    Developer Response

    Sorry the heart-menu thing bothered you so much! I'll see about getting an option in there to disable the chyron. I only use it once or twice a year when I release a new game that I think players of my other games might be interested in. I don't collect or sell any personal information about you — I don't even put analytics packages in my games.
  • I’M ADDICTED

    Holy cow what a great game!! Rarely do I ever feel the need review an app, but this... is golden to me 😭 I have loved word searching my entire life and always struggled with wanting to connect words like this, I play it so much.. it is designed so beautifully and I’m absolutely in love. Thank you!
    (Although, I do believe the “ challenge words” could use a little updating..)

    Keep creating.

  • Great Game

    Really enjoying the game, the ads can definitely be annoying, I really just wish they’d went with banner ads.

    Sometimes the game doesn’t accept valid words such as “taser” and when you challenge it, it denies it. My girlfriend and I have run into multiple valid words that don’t work.

    I’d love to purchase the app but $4.99 is a little steep for what this game is. I’d definitely consider the purchase at $2.99.

  • Nice, simple word game

    I tend to be bad at these kinds of word-connect games, but I gave it a try anyway. It didn’t take me long to learn how to play, which is great. I love the chill background music and simple graphics. Some things could be tweaked, in my opinion. Like when completing a word, the pop up is too quick for me to read. But I didn’t encounter any bugs.

    I love that it seems like you just pay once to unlock the full game. No subscriptions or sounds to buy, as far as I can tell. So if you’re into word games like these, I’d suggest giving it a try!
