Excellent game

Love playing every day

Where’s my Streak??

I play this daily. Over 3 years now. This morning my streak disappeared!?!?!?!!!

✨Next day - they fixed it this morning!
Thank You

Great

This has become my daily puzzle game that I get back to whenever I have some idle time. The base game is quite enough, but I’m sure there’s more fun to be had if you pay to unlock the whole thing.

Challenging and addictive.

Finally! A logical word game that actually requires thought and skill. Simple to learn, but often quite challenging to complete. Most word games are so easy and dull. This one makes you use your brain. Love it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Super Fun

A fun and challenging game

Fun game but buggy

I originally left a much better review but it bugs me everyday to review it again so I changed it to one star.

Fun game!

I love the game but wish the logic for where it thinks I want to put in the next letter made more sense to me.

Nice Idea, Unreliable and Perplexing

I’ve been using this game for some years, and I find the concept to be original. No clues provided, the user has to figure out words that fit. That’s about where the good ends. The game doesn’t appear to have been updated for years, the interface lags, sometimes doesn’t respond, and rarely, if ever syncs over ICloud. The monthly puzzle section contains regurgitated themes and puzzles literally taken from the last several months. The app uses words that don’t exist in any dictionary, which is untenable for a word based game. It’s one of the most poorly implemented games I’ve ever seen, which is a shame because the concept is great.

Fun game

Addicting

This is one of my favorite apps on my phone. The puzzles grow more challenging throughout the week. There is no advertising nagging. Just fun.

Challenging puzzle

I love that alternate solutions are allowed. Appreciate the hints. Look forward to Classic growing each day. I’m always excited for Sundays

Sehr Gelungen

Für alle, die gerne knifflige Kreuzworträtsel spielen ist Knotwords eine erfrischende Variante. Die kostenlose Variante bietet jeden Tag zwei neue Rätsel, genau die richtige Dosis um einerseits nicht zu viel Zeit zu versenken und sich andererseits täglich ein wenig herauszufordern.

Just let us play

Pop ups after every game asking for a rating, whether you give 5 stars or 1 star.

Accepted Words…?

Great app, I play this along with the NYT games, but on one of the days I put in the word ‘SLAVE’ and it came up in pink - meaning it’s not a word. Is this a mistake or is it some sort of woke narrative where they don’t accept words they don’t like even though they are in the English language. I assume it’s an error.

Abandon Ship

Another one bites the dust, everything just got paywalled, don’t bother.

Good

Very good

Clever idea…

…would you consider an English version?

compelling, engrossing

Any spare few minutes, I now get tied up in Knotwords.

I’ve been a writer and a cryptic crossword enthusiast for 50 years. I’m good at anagrams, which is the main skill you need for Knotwords. Still it’s really challenging me. It’s so cunning.

The creators have already produced a number of variations too: all worthwhile. It’s unlikely to get boring.

Of course, like all www word games, you’re at the mercy of the installed lexicon. I know words it doesn’t include, and it includes some proper nouns and such that I’d never have expected. And inevitably all the spellings are American. Those things you just have to learn to cope with.

I’m learning as fast as I can. 😁

Stories

This game is fascinating in the sense that for every puzzle solved, there’s some hidden story revealed within the combination of words found together. It’s a nice reward for solving each puzzle.
