### 2/5 — Hmmm

*2022-12-29*

The game is good but sooo very slow ...
Too boring ...

**Developer response:** Go into settings, and use the word puzzle recipe to increase the word size and number of empty slots. That will make it more difficult, and rest assured - it certainly won’t feel slow or boring then 😀!

We are also working on a 2X mode for the next release coming soon, which will speed up the game with bonus points to boot.

UPDATE - Just released v2.1 with the 2X speed mode! Do check it out, along with the word puzzle recipe to up the difficulty level.

### 2/5 — Fun idea, bad word recognition

*2022-12-28*

Like the fun, simple concept. But the game doesn’t correctly recognize words. In the very first game I played it said July isn’t a word. Given the fast paced nature of the game it is unforgivable and demoralizing when you’re doing your part and the game itself is sabotaging your ability to win.

**Developer response:** Noted! Will work on enhancing the dictionary in the next version 👍🏾

UPDATE: Just released v2.1 with an improved dictionary, and 2X mode to speed up the game. Please do give it a shot now.

### 3/5 — Challenging

*2023-02-04*

Challenging but no score. Or Improvement over last time

### 5/5 — Fun little word builder

*2022-12-30*

Nice game to pickup as a filler. Love how the hammer slowly rises up until it’s ready to be deployed to demolish those pesky bricked words. Would be nice though if the game could be sped up, like it can be slowed down.

**Developer response:** Thx! We are working on adding a 2X mode with bonus points for the next release coming soon, to speed up the game.

UPDATE - v2.1 is out with the 2X mode. Do check it out!

### 5/5 — Addictive!!!

*2022-02-18*

Wordle got me interested but Kattam keeps me satiated. Love the concept and execution. It’s highly addictive and has various difficulty levels to keep you engaged.

### 5/5 — Awesome game!

*2022-02-15*

Super fun and easy to figure out right after you start the game. It has different levels and each one keeps you on your toes. Definitely worth the download.

### 5/5 — Tetris Meets Wordle

*2022-02-15*

If you like Wordle you should give Kattam a try!

It’s like Wordle where you’re guessing 5 letter words but with the added time pressure of avoiding death by stack, Tetris style. 

Nicely polished and addictive.

### 5/5 — Highly addictive!!

*2022-02-14*

Great fun and highly addictive!!  One of the best things one could buy for a dollar these days!!

### 5/5 — Makes you think fast ! Good new concept!

*2022-02-14*

Good new concept in word games, makes you think fast. Great for kids to learn, recall and play with words.
