But HATE the ads, especially if they won’t X to stop them. ### 4/5 — game A+, ads D- *2026-07-20, version 1.0* Love the game, builds forgotten vocabulary. But hate the ads, especially if they won’t X to stop them. ### 4/5 — I wish *2026-06-29, version 1.0* I wish I had a support system. If you couldn’t get it then it would give you like a hint maybe you had to watch an ad or something. ### 2/5 — Fun, but… *2026-04-22, version 1.0* A fun game but I wish there was a ad free version available. ### 4/5 — Rate *2026-03-18, version 1.0* Needs to have a way to exit out or answers ### 4/5 — Need *2026-02-23, version 1.0* Should have a clue button ### 2/5 — Very American *2026-02-09, version 1.0* Fun for a while. No skip button or clues available. Ultimately frustrating and makes you reach for the delete button. ### 3/5 — Connecting *2026-01-28, version 1.0* Fun ### 2/5 — Connections *2026-01-20, version 1.0* Not sure if it will change bug the initial games are too easy. ### 2/5 — Categories *2025-11-23, version 1.0* The category titles are incorrect (ie category name was NBA players and the group was NBA teams) ### 3/5 — Leave? *2025-11-23, version 1.0* On first effort it seemed like a decent game, and I will continue with it, but I was disappointed with ‘leave’ being part of a tree. Slap the editor’s wrists! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-19, version 1.0* Only get to play 1 game then an ad. It’s terrible! ### 1/5 — bad *2026-07-15, version 1.0* too many ads ### 1/5 — Wrong spelling *2026-06-09, version 1.0* On my SECOND level it gave me the word “leave” and it didn’t make any sense. So I just brute forced it until I figured out what it wanted. The game tried to gaslight me and say “leave” is another word for “leaf”.. like “leaf” on a tree. Total BS. Uninstalled ### 1/5 — Errors *2026-06-06, version 1.0* Very first game had a word that is wrong. A “leave” is not part of a tree. ### 1/5 — Irritating and Juvenile *2026-05-30, version 1.0* Very difficult to play and focus on due to the constant ads that you are forced to watch between moving from one set of questions to the other. The game also seems to assume it can use foreign and many extremely rare and unheard words and terms to the typical English speaker. Another “game” for the NY Times to grift more attention and cash from the public. ### 1/5 — Connection *2026-04-29, version 1.0* Too many ads ### 1/5 — A hint would be helpful *2026-03-11, version 1.0* If I can’t figure out the connection, it makes me even more curious as to what it is. Only there’s no way to find out. Just have to start a new game. ### 1/5 — Ads, ads, more ads *2025-12-21, version 1.0* The duplication of sets every 3-4 “games” makes this easy to remember from game to game. Ads after every game makes this annoying to play, breaks your flow of thoughts. ### 1/5 — No Redeeming Qualities *2025-11-22, version 1.0* Categories are way too easy, made for 5th graders, and there is an ad after every single level, and I’m only on like level 10 and there’s already been multiple repeats of categories. ### 1/5 — 40 second ads after every turn *2025-11-17, version 1.0* Most of the ads take 40 seconds and 4 taps to close. Time to delete! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Kiwi *2026-08-16, version 1.0* Please provide an option to see answers ### 5/5 — A good thinking game! *2026-05-31, version 1.0* Enjoy playing Connections. Thank you for this game! ### 5/5 — super good!!! *2026-05-20, version 1.0* it is just the name of the game. ### 5/5 — i like it *2026-05-16, version 1.0* very good ### 5/5 — Connections Game *2026-04-12, version 1.0* This game is so much fun I love it Thank you ### 5/5 — The best *2026-03-22, version 1.0* So fun to play on a trip, and it is good for your brain! ### 5/5 — I Need Answers *2026-03-03, version 1.0* Please give the answer key if we cannot solve it! ### 5/5 — Connetiects *2026-01-08, version 1.0* Review ### 5/5 — ET *2025-11-17, version 1.0* Interesting and keep your mind sharp. Great game👍🏼 ### 5/5 — Connection Game *2025-11-12, version 1.0* Challenging. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
