Hope I Reach 100,000 points soon! ### 5/5 — Exercise *2021-01-03, version 1.10* You definitely give your brain an exercise. It would be great to add more letters to make longer words. That would be a real brain smasher.. ### 5/5 — Sizing whither *2020-09-08, version 1.9* I like that games puzzle so good game ### 5/5 — Willno7 *2020-08-10, version 1.9* Always challenging and fun!

I like the dictionary function. ### 5/5 — Love it !! *2019-04-01, version 1.5* I enjoy the excitement of finding all the cross words .... ### 5/5 — Fantastic! *2019-03-18, version 1.4* Love this app. Enjoy! ### 5/5 — Great fun when a few minutes spare *2019-02-16, version 1.4* Like brain games and this is well placed among the mix Thanks 👍 ### 5/5 — Sounds *2018-12-28, version 1.4* It’s a pleasant game but there needs to be some music and sound effects for the game. Some sound as you play would make the game more enjoyable. ### 4/5 — Fun *2018-11-03, version 1.4* Needs a timer! ### 5/5 — Wordsearch *2018-10-22, version 1.4* Keeps me entertained Interesting ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Pft *2021-10-09, version 1.13* Useless ### 1/5 — Why cap letter count??? *2018-03-04, version 1.3* Please allow for words larger than 7 letters! The game gets monotonous after a while so to challenge myself I like to shoot for only larger (5+ letter) words. Now I’m trying only for 6+, but when words can not be longer than 7 letters this is very limiting.. please stop penalizing users for finding longer words. ### 1/5 — Keeps going off, crap *2016-05-15, version 1.3* I do the 100 puzzle and when reach 97 , it would go off and when press its back to zero. Happen few times and I got fed up, so I would not bother with this app even if it's free. The problem is not with my device as this keeps happening with all the devices I use as well as my friends. ### 3/5 — Fun *2018-05-12, version 1.4* It’s amazing how quickly you can come up with 100 words. I play this game often and although it’s pretty easy, it does keep the brain working. ### 3/5 — Limiting *2018-04-16, version 1.4* You would think a word game would reward you for long words. This one doesn’t even count a word if it gets to 7 letters! Otherwise enjoyable game. Easy to use. ### 3/5 — Word puzzle *2015-03-21, version 1.2* Really makes the brain do a bit of work. Good fun ### 3/5 — Just started *2014-02-27, version 1.1* So far seems kind of boring. But I'm just into my fifth puzzle so We will see. ### 3/5 — Nice *2013-11-04, version 1.1* I like it... I like it a lot ### 4/5 — Great Brain Workout *2022-10-29, version 1.14* This game can be as challenging as you choose to make it by using only higher scoring words. My one suggestion is that words found containing more than seven letters be counted, perhaps as bonus points, rather than be unusable. ### 4/5 — Review fun *2022-08-09, version 1.14* Helps with using your brain. This is a good game for any age from children learning to spell to adults remembering words. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Just me …. *2026-07-19, version 1.15* Gives me a mind workout & i can pick up and put down games to suit my time - great ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-07-09, version 1.15* Good and relaxing ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-07-08, version 1.15* I do love the game. Thanks New Caney,TX ### 5/5 — Fun *2025-05-10, version 1.15* A soothing calming word game that may even serve to ward off dementia!! Great to take with you to avoid boredom while waiting your turn . ### 5/5 — Love it *2024-11-12, version 1.15* Nice puzzle, helps you come down from a busy day. Try it you will love it. MC ### 5/5 — Major addiction *2023-04-05, version 1.14* Good day chaps I’ve reached the point that I’m not going to ever stop playing this game. I’m over 610,000 points with a max game of 400 pts. Average game of 350 pts. I’ve been playing for over two years and see no end to it my goal is to go over 450 points per game max letter count is 7 I love it. ### 5/5 — 100 words *2023-03-09, version 1.14* Nice quick game. I would love it if we could keep going beyond 100 words to see if we can double, triple, or even quadruple our words found. ### 5/5 — Spell 100, daily *2022-06-13, version 1.14* This app is hard to find, but I sure love “spell 100,” and use it at least once a day to exercise the old noggin. 7x7 grid of letters that you spell words using adjacent letters. So far I haven’t failed yet ### 5/5 — Won’t change iPads so I can play *2021-10-20, version 1.13* Each night before I go to bed I play this game. I enjoy word games and this one helps increase my vocabulary and improve my spelling. I love not having to compete and playing at my own pace. To bad the game is unavailable on the newer iPads ### 5/5 — Please let me make longer words! *2021-07-22, version 1.12* Spell 100 is awesome but the 7-letter limit is really annoying. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
