### 4/5 — Good, but

*2026-08-18, version 1.15.1*

Good brain games but no English uk dictionary option is a disappointment

### 2/5 — Atrocious AI

*2026-08-12, version 1.15.1*

The hard level AI is rigged in most of your games (especially backgammon) and you could literally show me the code and I wouldn’t believe you. There is absolutely no way it gets the rolls and draws that it does 80% of the time by raw odds

### 3/5 — The Word Selection Can be Perplexing at Times

*2026-08-10, version 1.15.1*

I don’t understand the words they choose sometimes

### 4/5 — uk english

*2026-08-03, version 1.15.1*

A quite challenging game which is compelling . My disappointment is that it uses only American English   and spellings of some words are incorrect . for example  ,  armour  is spelled armor!   Some culture specific  words  creep in too.

### 2/5 — WORD WRIGHT IS BUGGED

*2026-06-16, version 1.15.1*

I CANT GET GET IT TO ACCEPT ANY MA _ _ _ word NOTHING WORKS FOR THAT. It’s frustrating and the internet is very unreliable and unhelpful for that.

### 3/5 — Feature request

*2026-05-04, version 1.15.1*

You know they should really bring back random online play

### 2/5 — App not working?

*2026-04-21, version 1.15.1*

Anyone having issues getting the app to work? Every time I open it up it’s just a black screen. Have deleted it and reinstalled it three times.

### 4/5 — Battery killer

*2026-04-20, version 1.15.1*

Would absolutely be five stars if there was a way to simplify the game in settings to cut down on unnecessary animations. The app drains my battery. One quick game of checkers and 4%-5% battery gone.

### 4/5 — Very good!

*2026-02-07, version 1.15.1*

This game is so good because you can play board/card games without having to get them IRL and there’s no adds!

### 4/5 — Needs a top view or ability to spin the table

*2026-01-20, version 1.15.1*

No placement of the table allows view of rear Mahjong tiles. Similar issue causes wrong selection of Solitaire cards. Can be frustrating, but otherwise a great selection of games.

### 4/5 — Good for long trips in the car or on the plane

*2026-01-15, version 1.15.1*

I really like the 3D design and just the mechanics, music, sounds, everything. But I give it 4 stars because they changed the menu when they added more games. Please add the ‘physical’ board game boxes back! I was very disappointed when it happened…I know that a lot of game may have made it confusing, but you could make the current menu an option.

### 3/5 — Okay, but has its issues.

*2025-12-11*

The game in of itself is okay, but it really doesn’t do itself much in the lines of some technical aspects of the presentation. For example, there is no threefold repetition in the chess game (a stalemate where the board state remains the same for three turns), the word wright game often misses common words (on Dec. 11th it didn’t think decided is a word?), and it lacks transparency for some of the rules of Hearts or Yacht—clearly seeming as if it’s ripoff of Yahtzee and making hearts unbearably complicated to play.

**Developer response:** I thanks for reporting this. There should be threefold repetition detection in chess so that is a bug that we'll look into. Some letter combinations in WordWright produces a lot of possible words so we have to cut some out to not make a single day too tedious. Sometimes we have removed words that maybe should have been in. We have been talking about making a "maximum" game mode where you need to find all possible words in the word list. Yacht we are planning on coming back to improve pretty soon so keep the app updated.

### 1/5 — AI Cheats

*2026-07-24, version 1.15.1*

Played 10 games of Backgammon vs AI on hard mode and AI blatantly rolls whatever it needs to win.  I was leading in the last game and AI rolled doubled 4 times in a row.  Now tell us how your game is balanced and certified…. I call BS.

### 1/5 — Participation trophy

*2026-07-20, version 1.15.1*

The AI shooting the moon .. then taking all the points away from loser to distribute to other players is about as lame as it gets!!  Might as well scream “here loser, you deserve a participation trophy because the other players beat you. But don’t worry, not only do you get a PT, I took all your points and distributed them to the actual winners”.   As I stated “LAME”!!

### 1/5 — Nope

*2026-07-17, version 1.15.1*

Literally impossible to play with friends

### 1/5 — Audio Controls Don’t Work

*2026-06-10, version 1.15.1*

Trying to play the game on silent so I can listen to a podcast at the same time, but even though I’ve turned the sound effects and music completely down, the sound effects still play.

### 1/5 — Screw you and your word choices

*2026-05-13, version 1.15.1*

CITRIC?!? A word no one uses is a word?? You guys suck. Find someone better to choose the words bc you guys suck.

### 1/5 — Children can code better

*2026-03-13, version 1.15.1*

Seriously, one of the worst apps I’ve ever seen. The chess AI is easily beatable on the hardest level, despite my not having played for several decades.

The word game based on spelling bee is an atrocious mess. So many simple words are not included as playable options despite being obvious, everyday words that are used that there is clearly no QA among the developers, and they aren’t pulling from any standard opensour eyes dictionary to check their work. 

This has to be the worst value for production dollars Apple has spent… And I’m counting the Apple car in that list.  I would be happy to vibe code a better version using the worst LLM imaginable, to offer an alternative if Apple would put it up on the top of the app page! Painful to experience.

### 1/5 — Cheats

*2026-02-25, version 1.15.1*

Don’t play! The ai on hard mode cheats, every single game!

### 1/5 — Could be better

*2025-12-28, version 1.15.1*

They need to remove the word AI as there is no AI in most of the games.  Take backgammon for example.  Easy mode is super easy as the computer makes many bad decisions which you would expect.  The Hard mode is only more challenging due to better dice rolls.  The decision making by the computer on backgammon hard is really really poor.  It has made it unplayable for anyone who has played a decent amount of backgammon.  Too bad as it is a pretty good app of great games if done correctly.

### 1/5 — cannot connect

*2025-12-21, version 1.15.1*

why it shows “cannot connect “ from today ,, can u plz fix this bug

### 1/5 — Multiplayer not working

*2025-12-08, version 1.15.1*

When trying to play in multiplayer mode with friends it always disconnects in the middle of the game.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-08-09, version 1.15.1*

Play this every day and really enjoy the daily challenges. My only slight alteration would be the introduction of a UK English version for Word Wright.

### 5/5 — Hi

*2026-02-27, version 1.15.1*

It was fun and challenging but I teased my brain power

### 5/5 — Amazing app, 5 stars

*2026-02-27*

I love this app and I use it almost everyday for the daily solitaire and word wright! It is amazing to see an app with so many games inside it and have NO ADS! But there is one thing I think should be added and that is a daily 3-card draw solitaire. I personally love playing 3-card draw and I would really love a daily one. Hope the devs see this request and take it into consideration. Thanks for the amazing game!

### 5/5 — Great multi game card app

*2026-01-26, version 1.15.1*

### 5/5 — Great games
