Good but could be improved ...
This is cool - a good concept, but could be better if it showed the correct word if you get one wrong or gave a second chance and if you grouped into levels - say 20 words per level that'd be repeated untill you get 100% then you move to another level - this would let us chart our progress and prevent the prob of getting words we know endlessly repeated.

Good idea but with two really annoying issues
An excellent idea, some of the words are fairly simple but still a good way to keep yourself occupied. The graphics are good - I like the idea of dragging the missing scrap of paper :)
HOWEVER there are two issues with this app.
Number one is that if you do get a word wrong there appears to be no way of seeing the correct one.
Number two is that every time you open the APP, it starts back at the same word!! This is irritating because it means that you have to pass through loads of words you have already done to get to some new ones!
Entertaining at first but I can see this getting on my nerves.

Great!
Cool game and free! Please add some more questions though to keep it top notch :)
Fun with benefits!
Having been one of those bookworm type kids I love word games. This one is great for filling in waiting time and keeping your brain active at the same time.
The only thing that I would suggest is highlighting the correct answer when the wrong one is chosen so that it is an actual learning tool too.
Great work!

Decent start
Very good start for a new app. User interface was great. I liked how the pieces "sprung" into place if you didn't put it exactly in the hole.
However it needs a bit of polishing:
1) Larger list of words needed
2) Needs much more challenging words
3) Have different levels of difficulty
4) No repeating words within the same session (at a minimum)
5) Indicate the correct answer when a wrong answer is selected.
6) Add some sort of scoring feature
7) Add a timer as part of the scoring
8) There's a slight coloration mismatch between pieces of paper and the paper around the hole when the scrap is placed.
I gave 4 stars instead of 3 because of the novel design and potential. This has the potential of worth paying for in a few updates or so.

Good but needs a few improvements
I like this app/game as I have always been a student of vocabulary. A few things could be changed to make this better:
- why do we need to drag the word to that hole? I'd be happier tapping?
- why do we not get a chance to correct any incorrect attempts?
- some of the alternate words are not even close to the correct word so its not much of a challenge.
- why do we see the same definitions again once we've gotten them correct? Need more time before we see repeasts
- might be nice to report some stats such as avg time torespond, total correct/incorrect words, etc.
I could probably come up with 5-10 more improvements, but this would be a nice start.

Good app for a great price.
Great little app for those that like to learn new words, or test out their vocabulary. I have to give it a high score just for the price, but it could use a couple of features
like the ability to put in your own words / definitions (turn it into a flaschard like app), or the ability to sync new words, removing words you get correct most of the time. Overall, can't complain about a ready-to-use vocabulary trainer.

Fun & Educational
This is a very fun and educating app that's simple and easy to use. Definitely helps with my vocabulary and with my English class. What I would like to see in the next update is the "Right answer" to a question. When I get something wrong, the correct answer doesn't show up and I end up making the same mistake twice. Please add that feature so I can learn new words that I don't know.
