This last time I couldn’t get any letters to play the puzzle and it wouldn’t move to next puzzle. As a result I had to delete it and start all over again from the beginning. Very frustrated and didn’t get a response from your support group. ### 5/5 — Very addictive game *2021-02-24, version 1.2.0* Love it!! ### 4/5 — Simple *2021-02-21* Easy to play ### 5/5 — Enjoying this game *2020-11-12* I really enjoy this app and game ### 5/5 — Challenging *2020-11-05, version 1.2.0* Make you think helps with vocabulary. ### 5/5 — Great *2020-08-25, version 1.2.0* Great word game, ### 5/5 — Great Game *2020-06-24, version 1.2.0* I love playing word games.

Still no response. Would have given a 5 star rating except for lack of support to my feedback about how the free spins doesn’t work!

It’s over kill. I just want to play the game not watch video after video. I want to chose when to watch one not be forced to. ### 1/5 — BUULLLL *2018-08-18* this was supposed to be an ad with different worded nails and one was misspelled and i much rather prefer that game. all you word games are all the same try to be original at least ! every time i see an ad and im like oh fun i wanna play it always ends up being one of these stupid word scramble games . so unoriginal i would download word cookies if i wanted this word game not this one. maybe that’s why you all have to make these fake ads just to disappoint us even further ### 1/5 — 面白いと思ったけど *2018-08-03* 無理矢理見せる広告多すぎ、iPhone熱持ち過ぎて異常出たからやめた ### 1/5 — False Advertisement *2018-08-03, version 1.1.6* This game is not at all what you see in the pop up add. There is no hangman, no pictures that you match the words too. It is just like word connect, word crossy, wordscapes, Letter soup. Same game, different interface. Very disappointing. I would give it half a star, but that option, along with the games advertised in the pop add for this game, does not exist. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great game. *2026-03-07, version 1.2.0* Very satisfying game.
