### 4/5 — Fun

*2025-07-14, version 2.1*

It’s a fun and challenging game

### 1/5 — Ads in weird places

*2023-02-10, version 2.1*

During the run through of about every 4 sentences, an ad plays over the top of it, leaving you clueless on how to answer the follow up question. Also, this is not a reading helper as much as a memory helper. You have to memorize every word on the screen in order to answer the follow up question. The words combine to make gibberish sentences, which doesn’t help with the natural flow and structure of the English language. 

In summary: pass on this one, it’s a waste of space, time, and bandwidth.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2023-01-09, version 2.1*

You need to be awake to concentrate, but it’s kind of fun!

### 1/5 — Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaattttttttttttttttttteeeeeeeeee

*2023-01-01, version 2.1*

Hate so much that will never download again

### 4/5 — Interesting Game

*2022-07-15, version 2.1*

UPDATE 2022: Still playing this entertaining game and enjoying it immensely! It’s something great that the bridge will underneath arrive. LOL

When I first started playing this game, I didn't quite think it was all that interesting. However, it quickly turned into a very interesting game -- and a challenging one, too! The gameplay is very simple: you watch a sentence displayed on the screen one word at a time and then you have to find the same sentence from a list of six or seven choices. This game definitely tests your memory! Very recommended!

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2021-07-22, version 2.1*

This is not speed reading but temporarily memorizing a random string of words that have no logical meaning.

### 5/5 — Interesting App

*2021-06-17, version 2.1*

Interesting App

### 5/5 — Exciting

*2021-03-18, version 2.1*

Can’t stop

### 1/5 — Truly Awful Game

*2021-02-12, version 2.1*

A wise man once said:
”A hall will tickle inside the notebook since an effect will pretend into the invention”

Oh, wait! No that was just one of the sentences found in this awful game.

Here are some more:

“The old playground will deserve even though the goose will plug”

“A trip damaged whether the ray belonged amid a space supposing the airport preached including the soup.”

”A tough selfish clam will desert magically”

If you like this game, YOU are the problem.

### 4/5 — Great game

*2020-06-21, version 2.1*

Great app. Will benefit from progressing by stages of difficulties ( short/medium/long sentences, slow/medium/fast speed)
