Unable to start new PvP games on mobile. Please fix.
Great game. BUT since the update: New feature, typos, doesn’t show up on mobile and inviting players for games or starting new games with other players causes the app to hang.
Please fix.

Good but buggy
My game won’t deal me a second hand any more.
I even jninstalled and reinstalled.
Full rules would be nice too e.g. what is a “typo”?

After the last update (5-10-23)
Review from 5-15-23: score 5/5
The issues have been fixed it seems and no longer is unplayable with a broken frame rate. Seems to run well again.
Review from 5-10-23: score 3/5
Game is broken. Animations move at a snails pace. What did you change with the most recent update? Literally unplayable. It used to go 60fps now chugs around 10-15 fps. And this is on an iPhone 13 Pro. Was working perfectly fine before the update. Please fix. Great game otherwise. Would be rated 4-5 if not for the terrible “update”.

Great Game but Terrible App
There are so many things wrong with this app. GUI is awkwardly laid out. Some buttons are way smaller than they should be. Push notifications don’t work for online games. Some of the effects on cards like the “Make an adjacent card wild” don’t always work. There have also been a few very legitimate words that the game rejects.
Glad I own the physical game and also glad I got the app for free.

Great - when it works
Has hung on 2 out of 3 games, always at the AI buying a card stage.
Guess I’ll just wait for the physical edition

Needs some work
Overall, I was stoked to have the implementation of expansion options, but…there are numerous crash bugs making it unplayable…70% of the time.
Computer players lock up when trying to make a word. This has appeared with more cards on hand, not fewer.
Computer players (smarter AI) have not made words, or have made suboptimal choices. The first is more problematic than the second. After watching them make ‘FA’ or ‘SH’, I question them missing ‘THE’ or SO’.
Computer players lock up while buying letters. I appreciate being able to skip their turn, but that just gets the game moving. It does not solve underlying issues.
Finally, similar to PAPERBACK VOL1., the double score adjacency bonus does not always work.
Again, thanks for putting the work in.
Some more tweaks will get it where it needs to be.

Great Game. Fix Glitches
The game will freeze on buying phase for AI, or finding word. This takes you out so much it becomes annoying. You think for the amount of money they charge they could get a programmer to fix such a glitch.
Otherwise it’s a great game. Please update and fix this.

Great time waster during these cold nights
Such a fun word game that goes great with a nice cup of hot chocolate and some nice music on these cold winter nights. The best part is there is no need to pick up hundreds of cards.
To be honest, I have never played any of the physical versions of this style of board game. However someone I used to play Scrabble with recommended the digital version since I love word games. I decided to buy Paperback Vol. 2 and I have been really enjoying it ever since.
Congratulations on the 10th Anniversary. Please keep up the excellent work on ths fun game.

Game vs programming
The game is 5 stars in concept. Brilliant! Daily, the program freezes unpredictably on AI opponent “finding a word.” AI makes ridiculous fame card buying choices in coop mode, regardless of level of AI. If you set three AI to play against each other, an error occurs in every other game. Glitches are too everpresent for such a good game. I’ll revisit this rating if new versions fix things
