Many of the answers are very challenging! ### 4/5 — Good game *2022-02-02, version 1.5* Good. Brain challenge but some tenses don’t match up and some words are a bit odd. There should be a way to get extra hints if you complete a puzzle. ### 4/5 — A good brain game! *2021-10-24* I loved this game when it was in the daily newspaper. Some of these games are quite challenging. I never even heard of some of the words (e.g. “fresher” for a first year undergraduate!) But all in all, a good game for brain exercise… ### 3/5 — Som definitions are odd as others have said *2021-01-17, version 1.5* But others contain the word you're looking for in a different form, so I guess it all evens out. ### 4/5 — Keep the noggin workin *2020-10-17, version 1.5* Some really good words. Keeps the mind sharp ### 4/5 — Strange *2020-09-03, version 1.5* Love the concept but wish the answers were a little more up to date. Such as Dobbin, Fresher, etc, ### 5/5 — Brain Game *2020-08-23, version 1.5* A lot of fun and is very addicting! ### 5/5 — game of words *2020-08-18, version 1.5* Great game very addictive ### 5/5 — if you love word games *2020-05-24, version 1.5* it can be challenging, but it is lots of fun. everyone who enjoys word games should have this one downloaded ### 5/5 — Great game *2020-04-13, version 1.5* Nice challenging game that is fun to play before bed. ### 5/5 — Fun *2020-04-06, version 1.5* Enjoying this game, never heard of many but fun trying! ### 5/5 — Game of words *2020-04-06* Absolutely fantastic and totally addictive. My wife, her sister and brother in law and her daughter are all playing this mind challenging game. We’re looking for more. ### 5/5 — Great Game - Need more packs!!! *2020-03-26* My wife and I both love this game. It's great to be able to work on one puzzle when we have a few minutes and come back to it later. Problem is that my wife has completed all the available packs! Please add some more packs soon. 🙏🙏🙏 ### 3/5 — Challenging interesting concept *2020-03-24, version 1.5* Challenging enough to keep you coming back, but don't see a way to ean rather than purchase hints. That's a bummer. ### 4/5 — Review *2020-03-13, version 1.5* Great puzzles. Definitely challenging. Being able to get a clue sometimes makes a big difference. I’d love it if you earned extra hints by completing a game ### 5/5 — Words *2020-02-01, version 1.5* I love this game, it makes me think outside the box. ### 5/5 — Not bad *2020-01-30, version 1.5* Good brain teaser. Always a challenge. Always finding myself coming back b ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Good luck guessing the words *2023-03-16, version 1.5* “Bangtail”? “Jibbed?” “Ideality”? I don’t know where they’re getting them but this ain’t the English I know and I’m a voracious reader. ### 1/5 — Unfair *2020-12-30, version 1.5* One level free then you make us pay for the rest! Super disappointed. ### 1/5 — Deceptive *2020-01-03, version 1.5* Reading other recviews they keep saying we missed the promo day BS! I did try to get it on the promo days and beer was it ever free you lie. App advice reviewed this app stating it was fun and challenging. So today get all levels unlocked. They only told AppAdvice this but when you went to follow the instructions to get all levels only level one was free. I wrote to the developer of app and he said it was free I was just late but that wasn’t true. I guess he thought people would buy it even if he didn’t offer what he promised. I’m giving these guys one star for their weaslie-ness ### 1/5 — Free today? *2019-12-08* It’s says it’s all free today ,including levels and ad-free, by tapping on options. However when I do that it tells me the price and asks for my Password. That’s not free.... You were displayed on a free app site, and you were not free as advertised. It was still during the “free” time period that I downloaded. I did not “ miss” the window. It was total false advertising. Omg I just did contact you. Twice. What more do you want? **Developer response:** I'm sorry you missed the promotional free days, the promotion was during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. The payment processing is handled directly by Apple and not the developer. If you have any issues with the game, please contact us directly. ### 1/5 — Frustrating *2019-12-07, version 1.5* I like word games, but I don't recommend this one. The letter breaks are in weird places, so it breaks up syllables. Also, obscure words. More frustrating than fun. ### 1/5 — Warning! *2019-12-04, version 1.5* Promise of today’s only free removal of ads and to get all levels free is false. Only ONE free level ? How deceptive ! You deserve less than zero stars. I’m so angry. Anyone here for the awesome offer: Don’t Fall For It! ### 1/5 — Today’s Free deal NOT free *2019-12-04, version 1.5* Developer’s promise to remove ads AND “unlock EVERY level free of charge” just didn’t happen. Instead we’re expected to pay ridiculous premiums for every single level after the initial trial level. You’ve got to be kidding me, this game isn’t worth anywhere near the price they’re asking. Buyer beware! ### 1/5 — Ridiculous *2019-12-03, version 1.5* Most of the answers aren’t even words that are known or used today and I’m 65 so have lots of past and current knowledge!! I do lots of crosswords too so I do know lots of words but some of these answers are crazy!! This would be a great game if common answers were used. ### 2/5 — Ok, but.... *2020-04-03, version 1.5* The vocabulary is a tad exotic and they have difficulties with verb tenses, so that makes it more of a challenge. Today I found this clue “edible crustation” = lobster!! Lol ### 2/5 — Sapper *2019-12-08, version 1.5* Not sure why the promo for the free version did not come thru. Also, the terms used as answers are often British dialect. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Challenging *2023-05-04, version 1.5* And fun! ### 5/5 — Fun game *2022-11-10, version 1.5* Fun game! ### 5/5 — I like *2022-08-18, version 1.5* Cool game ### 5/5 — Great fun *2022-07-09, version 1.5* Tough puzzles but worth it ### 5/5 — Intriguing *2022-06-23, version 1.5* The game is very different from any word game I’ve played it’s challenging ### 5/5 — Great Game. *2022-02-02, version 1.5* If you like crossword puzzles, you’ll love this! ### 5/5 — Good game *2021-12-26* Great game with some mind twisting puzzles. Great vocabulary builder. Don’t give up and you will do fine , eventually. I wish there were more levels. ### 5/5 — I love it! *2021-10-05, version 1.5* I love the challenge of putting the letters together to match words to the definition. Great brain game! ### 5/5 — Love this *2021-03-21* Just discovered this game and really enjoy it. It is a little harder than others I have played. But love it. ### 5/5 — Fun game *2020-09-04, version 1.5* I like passing time with this game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
