Would be better if there was a no ad option ### 3/5 — Good game -holy ads *2026-08-29, version 2.1.0* I do enjoy the game, the problem is the amount of ads. I get that you need to support your app, but to have ads constantly pop up while you’re trying to finish a puzzle is super annoying. I can get behind putting an ad in after someone has finished a puzzle, but don’t interrupt people like that when they’re trying to play the game, it ruins my concentration. I had to delete the app. Also, I know the developer is going to respond to me with some sort of excuse as to why they do it and they won’t actually care about the majority of the reviews that complain about the ads. ### 2/5 — Too Many Ads! *2026-08-27, version 2.1.0* Too many ads ! ### 4/5 — Battery Consumption *2026-08-27, version 2.1.0* Should include dark mode or light mode option to decrease battery usage. ### 2/5 — Fun but changes the rules *2026-08-25, version 2.1.0* A fun game that stretches your vocabulary. However, if you win too much your “opponent” suddenly gains points on you. Even if you play a perfect game that awards max points, you can be beaten, by 1 point, bye the computer that awards itself max points+ 1 points. Be warned. ### 2/5 — Love the game but the ads are blowing it!! *2026-08-24, version 2.1.0* I really love playing this game however the ads are overwhelming. I understand that there may be ads on these apps, but to have an ad in between each play is a headache. I am really considering deleting this app and finding another one with either less or no ads. ### 3/5 — It’s ok but - *2026-08-23, version 2.1.0* Far too many American words and meanings. ### 1/5 — Ads the game *2026-08-22, version 2.1.0* Just ads galore, rarely get to play the actual game. ### 2/5 — Repetitive Levels *2026-08-22, version 2.1.0* I enjoyed the game at first but after the first few hundred levels I started only getting the same 4-5 levels from earlier cycling through rather than any new ones. ### 2/5 — Not the game advertised *2026-08-22, version 2.1.0* Not the game that was advertised, but it’s ok to play as is. Only problem is a big one… after a few days, it seems to make you watch an ad not only when you finish a game, but everytime you take your turn. Maddening! ### 1/5 — Ads, Ads,Ads *2026-08-21, version 2.1.0* Sadly, too many ads. I can put up with them between levels, but not during a level before it’s ended. Deleted. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I used to love this game *2026-08-30, version 2.1.0* I have been playing for years. When the ads started it was frustrating but they are a necessary evil that I understand. BUT the ads are now before each puzzle, after each puzzle and several times DURING each puzzle. Might be a great crossword game just not worth my time anymore. I going to miss playing this game ### 1/5 — This app sucks. *2026-08-29, version 2.1.0* It freezes constantly. Goes to bulls___ commercials for so long it’s ridiculous. ### 1/5 — No update *2026-08-29, version 2.1.0* Game is not updating ### 1/5 — Disruptive *2026-08-28, version 2.1.0* This game is fun, but after every move, does there have to be an advertisement? ### 1/5 — Too Many Adverts *2026-08-26, version 2.1.0* More adverts than there are gameplay. Not enjoyable. ### 1/5 — Lame *2026-08-25, version 2.1.0* As you move up in levels they don’t give you any good letters ### 1/5 — Not as advertised *2026-08-24, version 2.1.0* I was disappointed that the game was not played as depicted in the advertisement that I received. Deleted the game. ### 1/5 — Симулятор просмотра рекламы *2026-08-24, version 2.1.0* Реклама после КАЖДОГО вашего хода. То есть каждые 30 секунд. Скипнуть ее сразу нельзя. Будете 50% времени играть, 50% времени смотреть рекламу ### 1/5 — Too Many Commercials *2026-08-23, version 2.1.0* It is fine to have a commercial after each game but a commercial during the game is too much. It breaks your concentration and makes the game not fun. ### 1/5 — Way, way,way too many ads *2026-08-22, version 2.1.0* Just what the title says. Your turn - ad App’s turn - ad Repeat Repeat Repeat ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Simple enough and fun so far *2026-08-30, version 2.1.0* I’m playing this game to earn points toward cash prizes. It’s not much, but it’s nice to be rewarded for playing. ### 5/5 — I need stats *2026-08-29, version 2.1.0* Fully addicted to this game at the min but there is something that deeply bothers me. I need To know my stats. How may games I’ve played, how many wins and highest scores and what not. Please can we get this. ### 5/5 — U S words *2026-08-28, version 2.1.0* An English version would be nice. Some grids are full of American words or abbreviations I don’t know and I have to wait for “ the other player “ to give me a clue. ### 5/5 — Just jane *2026-08-28, version 2.1.0* Wonderful game. ### 5/5 — Challenging *2026-08-27, version 2.1.0* Good to make you think. ### 5/5 — Really relax *2026-08-25, version 2.1.0* Fun game ads are short so tolerating ,the only thing I could find is the graphics could be a bit bigger but worth downloading . ### 5/5 — 5star *2026-08-24, version 2.1.0* Daily mind boost ### 5/5 — Indylu *2026-08-24, version 2.1.0* Very relaxing game, I’m surprised of my knowledge of words 👏👏 ### 5/5 — For fast and smart thinkers *2026-08-21, version 2.1.0* You need to brainstorm but at the same time it easy . ### 5/5 — Very good…but *2026-08-21, version 2.1.0* TOO MANY ADS drive me crazy It’s too bad bec it’s excellent game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
