Like I didn’t download this to play a block game. I downloaded it to play the letter game. 😡😡 ### 2/5 — ads *2023-06-30, version 1.10.1* way too many ads like almost every time you tap there is an ad ### 3/5 — Love the game *2023-06-07, version 1.10.1* Ads. That’s why it deserves 3 stars. No i’m not gonna waste money for no more ads. It’s ridiculous that these developers put an ad before a level, after a level, and sometimes between a level ☠️☠️ like ask yourself, is it really that necessary? The game becomes non-enjoyable when you know an AD awaits for you afterward. ### 2/5 — fix it pls *2023-06-05, version 1.10.0* the game is fun but it has way to many ads ### 2/5 — But…. *2023-06-04, version 1.10.0* I love this game, but there are WAY too many ads. WAY TOO MANY ADS!!!! Had to uninstall. ### 1/5 — Ruined by ads *2023-05-29, version 1.10.0* Could be a fun game, but the ads ruin it. I totally understand the developers needing to make money. But it’s insane. 30 seconds of game play, then two ads. Can’t even play enough levels to see if I like it enough to make it worthwhile to pay for no ads. Played a few levels and uninstalled. ### 3/5 — Way too many ads impossible to play *2023-05-26, version 1.10.0* Seems like a great puzzle game in theory but way way too many ads! After literally every single click on the game you’re getting an ad? I get that you need the revenue and it’s to encourage you to purchase the ad free version but this did the opposite - ended up deleting after 1 level! ### 3/5 — Ads *2023-05-24, version 1.9.0* Super fun game and idea, ads ruin it all. so much ### 2/5 — SO MANY ADDS!! *2023-05-21, version 1.9.0* There is so many adds. Once I downloaded it, immediately there was an add. You know how it asks if you want to play a special puzzle for an add right? It popped up to me right after a add was done before that. I pressed no thank you, and guess what. An add! Do not recommend if you are an impatient person. ### 1/5 — Clues are just wrong *2023-04-24, version 1.9.0* On top of the ever-present problem of ads (2 between regular puzzles at times), this game is literally unplayable without hints due to the poor writing of the clues. I just finished the “rare” level about Umpires. TWICE in this puzzle, the expected answer was inconsistent with the clues given. For example, expecting a “S” at the beginning of the word when the last prompt explicitly stated “C”, and then switching the expected answer BACK to “C” 2 clues later. I looked, and there is no way to report this within the app. Don’t waste your time, these developers put out a half-finished product with a ton of ads, knowing that people would uninstall it after less than 1 day. ### 2/5 — Wrong hints *2023-04-22, version 1.8.0* I don’t mind the ads. I actually hate the idea of instant gratification because it promotes impatience. But I digress. My issue with this game is that for one of the special levels, having to deal with Major League Baseball, there is a hint to add a C to the beginning of the word. Then the next him is to delete M, J, and G. So I follow both of those exactly, but with the second hint, even typing it all out and then deleting the 3 letters, it’s wrong. So I use a hint and the hint shows that somehow the C magically is changed to an S (but no hint to change it in between). Then, the next hint is to take the last 4 letters and mix them around with the first letter so that you create the word for “the darkest color”. But the C was changed to an S, but now it’s magically changed back to a C again. Someone needs to review these hints and the end results because being told I’m getting the steps wrong, even though I’m following the hints EXACTLY, is what gets to me. ### 2/5 — Jeu bien mais trop d’annonce *2023-04-21, version 1.8.0* Je comprends qu’il y aille des annonces mais là on ne peut pas jouer une game sans qu’il y aille au moin 3 annonce! ### 1/5 — Ad hell *2023-04-14, version 1.8.0* Forget this game! It takes 8-10 annoying ads between each game. If developers realized that people just walk away from annoying ads. Rather, injecting one or two ads every few games might actually get people to buy the game… ### 3/5 — Really fun but has some problems *2023-04-12, version 1.8.0* One of the main inconveniences is the ads that it has there’s too much ads and also that every time I need a clue and I click the light bulb icon it takes me to an ad and my screen just turns completely black so I don’t get the clue and when I get out I have to reset the game. ### 2/5 — It is an okay game. *2023-04-11, version 1.8.0* the game is fun but there are way too many adds and a mistake. the vowels are: A,E,I,O,U but in game they are A,O,E,I,U. the question asked to remove the second vowel, which should be the letter E but instead it was the letter I which isnt second in the right way if placing vowels or the in-game version. ### 3/5 — Fun but WAY TOO MANY ADS *2023-04-11, version 1.8.0* Do NOT download this game if you don’t want to deal with 2 ads between each level. They do one after the level you play and another one before you can start the next. Game is super fun but these ads make it annoying. ### 1/5 — eh *2023-04-11, version 1.8.0* way too many ads and sometimes the instructions don’t match the answer which is very annoying. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not the game advertised *2023-09-19, version 1.11.0* As others have stated, the game lets you play two levels of the game it advertises and then turns into a word scape block type game. I played through 20 levels to see if it would change back, nothing. Deleted. ### 1/5 — Absolutely not the game I signed up for *2023-09-12, version 1.11.0* Gave me two levels of the actual game that it said I was downloading (one was the tutorial). Then went to wordscapes. Thought maybe it was part of this game but it never switch back. Lame. ### 1/5 — What Game is This? *2023-09-10, version 1.11.0* I’ve just started playing this game and the first two or three levels were like the pictures shown where you are given steps to remove, add or switch letters to figure out the correct word. But now every level is just a crossword type puzzle where you have to create words with the letters provided. That’s not the game I wanted to play. ### 1/5 — It’s not the same game as advertised *2023-09-10, version 1.11.0* They trick you into thinking you are downloading the game they are advertising but after the fourth level it switches to crosswords. I deleted the app ### 1/5 — Game is trash. *2023-09-09, version 1.11.0* This game is trash. Can’t play one round without a ad. ### 1/5 — not loading *2023-07-14, version 1.10.1* i just downloaded the game and all its giving me is a blank white screen?? i don’t know if it’s my phone or the game but it needs to be fixed. ### 1/5 — Clues are incorrect *2023-06-23, version 1.10.1* “Finish the phrase: “on of —“” The answer was “us” but I have never once seen or heard anyone say “ON of us”, it’s supposed to be “one of us”. Some of the clues are so incomprehensible that you have no choice but to watch an ad (which for some reason on this app are about a minute long each). ### 1/5 — The keys are so stupid *2023-06-17, version 1.10.1* You like the game? Well to bad! You have to play the same stupid mini game (that’s not even fun) to play the game ADVERTISED. Scam vibes. ### 1/5 — To much ads . *2023-06-03, version 1.10.0* Im watching more ads than playing the game , this makes the game so annoying . ### 1/5 — Ads every 9-29 seconds *2023-06-01, version 1.10.0* Like actually, I timed it. 😐 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I like it and recommend it *2023-04-11, version 1.8.0* I love this game. It is so fun. I gives you challenges that are sometimes easy and hard the only thing is ADS. But other wise I think it is a great game I completely recommend it!! ### 5/5 — Wor *2023-03-27, version 1.8.0* Very interesting ### 5/5 — Best game ever *2023-02-28, version 1.7.0* So I downloaded letter steps for fun as I was really bored with other games Also (level 16) I did one today with my daughter and she new it was Neptune is a Solar System. So I was playing ALL night. ### 5/5 — Jerred *2023-02-07, version 1.6.0* The is really fun ### 4/5 — Fun *2023-07-01, version 1.10.1* This is more fun than other word games because it makes you think ### 4/5 — Ads *2023-06-13, version 1.10.1* The game is SUPER fun, but before the level I encounter an ad and after the level I encounter an add. It’s really frustrating because I’m just trying to play this game. Overall though the game itself is pretty fun! ### 4/5 — TOO. MANY. ADDS. *2023-04-07, version 1.8.0* I loved this game but it has WAY to manny adds to the point it’s making me more frustrated than relaxed(these types of games make me relaxed). I get that you want people paying to remove adds but you get 2-3 adds a round at least and it’s bloody annoying! Please try to reduce the adds. ### 4/5 — ADDS *2023-03-30, version 1.8.0* There are to many adds it’s crazy! But other wise it’s really fun!😊 ### 4/5 — Forget what I said about ads *2023-03-23, version 1.8.0* When I turn off my data and wifi it shows no ads if I reset the app, so I really like this game even more ### 4/5 — Good but one annoying problem *2023-03-21, version 1.7.2* This is a very fun game to pass the time, but there is one thing in particular that is slightly bugging me. It is the fact that the keyboard is so small! Please make the keyboard bigger so that it is easier to use. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
