Tricky

Tricky word game requires patience and lots of thinking. Connections are often vague and there are many red herrings in this game. The developers have made this game available in English however the spelling and wording in the instructions and before and after pop ups are incorrect and annoying.

I gave up after failing to solve 4 out of 5 puzzles but largely due to time. Stick at it and it will be fun for those of the lateral disposition.

Lateral Thinking

This game shouldn’t be this difficult.Why are all combinations wrong?

Stuck

Breezed through some of them. Slow on some of them. Stuck on some of them...

Not satisfying

It'd be nice if they gave you more feedback on your answers. It just tells you it's "wrong" and then you can never find out the "right" way they want the order. I wish it weren't so frustrating.

Almost fun

Some relations are unclear due to their subjective nature--being clouded by popular culture terms. It makes things needlessly difficult. Also, the way it's made clearly limits lateral thinking as you must have the words in a particular order before it lets you move on to the next set. I personally had several occasions where the order in which I arranged the words seemed correct to me (and made sense), but were not deemed "correct" by the game. Due to the ambiguous nature of words due to different perceptions, this isn't the way lateral thinking actually works. The game could be fixed by adding a percentage grading system instead of an all-or-nothing system.
