  • Changes to App DO NOT WORK

    I have played Word Warp for years. It is highly addictive. However, the recent changes made to the App have made it glitchy and almost unusable. At times, the letters will not appear even though you select them. If you are moving quickly, this will trip you up and the word that you are attempting to play will not be complete causing you to start over forming the word. In addition, the order of the letters no longer tracks the most recent word. Instead, the letter sort remains the same throughout the game. Anyone who has played this game for a while will be thrown off by this. These two problems combined make for a frustrating experience. Please fix this App!

  • Roll back the update ASAP

    Have to add my complete disappointment in the new update. Game feels completely different and not in a good way. It’s clunkier, less responsive, and a complete downgrade from what it was. What it was was simple, enjoyable, and timeless. If any updates are to occur it should have been to keep the timer up when you’ve completed the board and less repeats of boards. I’ll check back but if this version is to stay then I will have to delete after a decade of enjoying it. What a shame, hopefully the administrators take heed of all the negative feedback this update has been getting - it seems users are 100% in agreement since I didn’t see any positive reviews yet of this latest version.

  • Used to be fun

    The ads in the recent update now take longer than the rounds. Time to find another game.

    Hi there, thanks for the review. We appreciate your feedback! I'm sorry that you're unhappy with the ads in the app. Ads should provide a close or skip option in the form of an "X", fast forward "arrow" symbol, or something similar. If this option is missing or misbehaving for an ad you're seeing, please Contact Us so we can fix it!
  • They’ve ruined a good game

    I’ve played Word Warp every day for years. It’s an enjoyable, challenging, and mind-sharpening game.

    Over the last two days, it has changed dramatically. On the one time I’ve been able to get it to work, the interface had lost it’s simple class. The letters were suddenly very large and in a font that made them almost hard to read. On that one time, an ad ran before and after the game. An ad had previously never run before playing a game. But worst of all, I’ve only been able to get it to work that one time. Every other time the game has crashed when I’ve tried to play it. My phone’s iOS is current, and I’ve tried restarting the phone, but it still crashes every time.

    They’ve taken a game I thoroughly enjoyed playing, and destroyed it.

  • Feedback on update

    I am not sure why you changed the font on your latest update. Looks shocking and ‘cheap copy’ rather than the professional image previously.

  • It Just Keeps Getting Worse

    I’ve had this app for years, and the game itself is pretty engaging and a good time waster, but it just keeps getting worse with every update. First there was the adding of more and longer ads over time, followed by ads that take you out of the app to automatically redirect to a browser or the App Store without permission. Then, within the last year, I started noticing that the app messes with the volume settings, often muting my phone volume and ringer/alerts without me knowing or allowing that kind of access. Today’s update added a bunch of themes that no one really needed while completely ruining the app itself. Now all it will do is show the game screen, but I can’t actually play anymore. I tried the typical troubleshooting- closing the app, deleting the app and reinstalling it, etc.- and nothing worked, so I’m leaving this review and deleting the app for good.

  • Oh Gosh Another “Improvement”???

    Well I think this is the final straw; gotta find another game similar. Because, wow, they just keep trying to fix stuff that isn’t broken while ignoring the one thing EVERYone wants... less ADS!
    Last improvement, they turned the sound into these annoying little squeaks. Now this time they have made the letters that you choose from too large. They make my eyes cross!
    Maybe if they had someone who is more in tune with what interface components make for a better play experience AND more acceptable words, AND a more creative way of producing the game without the ads ‘ad-nauseum’.
    Til then I’ll be signing off. The fun is no longer worth the hassle.

  • One of my all-time favorites!

    Even though they are running an ad after each word set I find it good brain exercise. I have been playing for years and personally don’t tire of it. There are still words that are very challenging. This is an update added on to my original review. The app was just updated and I think they messed it up more than helped it. The two primary things that I noticed are different that I do not like are:

    1) The touch response seems less sensitive. It is more difficult to get the touch to respond each time.

    2) The letters stay constant in the position for which they are ordered at the beginning of each session. I liked when they would re-order depending on how each input occurred. It definitely hampers prompt wordplay which is part of what I really like about playing this game.I will still play the game but will also be looking for another anagram game although it is anticipated it will be hard to find one that I like as much as this one

  • Disappointing ‘upgrade’

    Used to love this game. Foolishly accepted the upgrade today. No longer works. Fail.

  • Great game. Tired of Ads.

    I have loved this game for years. I bought the paid version to get rid of ads but that is a completely different game. Wish I could get an ad-free version of this app. The game is intuitive; updates have improved the app. Highly recommended.

    Update: they’ve just updated the game after not changing anything about the game in over 10 years!!! So now after typing a word, the letters go back to their original position instead of plugging back into the grid in the order you used them. So I’m constantly typing the wrong letters. They enlarged the letters and changed the font. There is NO WAY to change any of the new settings off. I’ve played this game for over 10 years. I want it to be the same. Very disappointing update.
