### 5/5 — Challenging

*2019-01-21, version 1.0*

I really feel challenged with this game....I like to try to get the word before the definition comes up.  Some of the rounds are easy while others are more difficult.  Nice mix!

### 5/5 — Race your friends!

*2019-01-10, version 1.0*

Have your friends download the game too and race each other to see who can complete a round the quickest!  Every time I win, they always complain that I somehow got easier words than them, but we all know it’s really cause I’m just smarter!  This game is a blast to play!

### 5/5 — Really addictive

*2019-01-08, version 1.0*

I’m a words person, and I like the way this game twists my brain around. I just burned a solid hour playing a few rounds, and it felt like utter defeat when I had to give up on the last one. I’ll be back tomorrow.
