  • Fun but a little frustrating

    Fun game. Good for getting you thinking. Some questionable words and some legitimate words that are denied make it a little frustrating at times.
  • Great game

    Awesome game. Very addictive and I like how you can return to the game later without it deleting your progress!
  • It was fun... But not as fun as I hoped.

    I started out playing this game on my sisters iPod, and when I first started then it was great fun, but I then went to play it on my own, and suddenly all of the faults stood out to me. The fact that only one pack is truly free and you can't even unlock any more by getting all the words right is just bad game designing. There were many instances where I was frustrated with the game because of very uncommon words or words that should be in that weren't. Other than those faults which I have listed, the game was pretty fun, and if there were more packs to unlock without paying, I would have been much more satisfied.

  • Like this game a lot....LIKE, not love.

    I'm a big fan of word games, and while this game offers somewhat of a challenge I have to agree with other players that the "official" dictionary needs a major update. I've learned that to get the most out of this app, you really need to go ahead and finish each puzzle completely, not just go on to a new one after figuring out the 6-letter. Also, an app shouldn't boast itself as "free" when you actually HAVE to spend money to advance. If I were going to do that then I would have spent the $2 on TextTwist (which I used to play on the PC as a teenager and still to this day love). The layout is nice and easy to navigate. Decently fun game, just needs to be redesigned to give players more FREE options and puzzles.

    All around, I'd give it a high 3/5. So for ratings sake, I'm rating it as a 4/5.

  • Meh ...

    Many issues ... Firstly, only the first category (25 games) is truly free. If you want to play the second category you'll find yourself here writing a review for the honor. All other categories must be paid for in order the play. Secondly, the game gets annoying because you are forced to touch a letter numerous times to successfully move it to the guess section. That gets frustrating as it really slows you down. There are many words you will play only to find this game does not consider them words--again, very irritating. I found a lot of words can be played over and over again. HINT: Adding an 's' at the end of words will take you far. There are no hint options and a few of the words will seem foreign so venture a guess if all else fails. I've had to look up the meaning of one or two three-letter words because I've never heard of them before, which can be a mix of frustration and an interesting challenge. I really like the shuffle feature and found it quite useful when all obvious words ran their course.

  • Cool

    This is a cool app I wish you could get hints or at least have everything unlocked but it is still a good app and you should get it if you have not already
  • Great app

    Quite addictive and very good to get your brain fired up for the day! Though its very easy to tap the wrong letter, just a bit fiddly when it comes to shuffling the letters around when you've hit them in the wrong order as well.
  • Anagrams

    This game is both addicting and frustrating. I like puzzle solving, I'm not great at it mind you, but I like it. I enjoy the scrabble like feel of the game tiles and the jumble of letters. However there are some drawbacks. The puzzles are preset with the answers... if you find a word that is not one the these preset ones its not valid. (no extra bonus points for spare words :( bummer). Sometimes the letters when tapped will not jump to the spelling board they sit there and shake at you. These are not so awful that I wouldn't recommend this game it is fun and I find it amusing to play when I'm with my family it soon draws them in! ;)

  • Trivial

    Just what I needed, to get my brain functioning again after hanging around too many dumb people
  • Love it

    Very addictive, however would have got 5 stars if it was more consistent. On one level it accepts the word "roe" but won't on another. Some word I don't even know if they exist just guessing solved them and one puzzle asks for 2, 6 letter words, I picked ranged, but it was danger and garden but maybe that's how the game is supposed to work still enjoy it!
