Super-Fun word game

Challenging but fun ! Love the graphics - some beautiful and entertaining
BLBrigitte Lauzier

Save issue

This app is clever and fun, if a bit lacking in polish at the moment. It is therefore unfortunate that I appear to have completely lost my save data upon completion of the (first?) map. I look forward to this getting a little more attention - there’s a lot of good stuff here.

Beautiful Game!

Absolutely love this game! My niece, my nephew, my mother, my mother in law, all play this game! Pretty art, fun gameplay and definitely challenging puzzles. Looking forward to more updates eagerly.

Favourite game currently

I love this game and play it almost every day. It goes beyond a typical word game by genuinely challenging how you think. The art style is beautiful and really stands out.
