Fun

Love the game. I just wish you could choose between easy - difficult so that when matched up with others you could be in a level that suits your ability.

Favorite game of all time

I’m a bit of an addict. I’ve been playing for years and it’s still my favorite! I do wish the game would match me up with more opponents but perhaps the pool is somewhat rarefied at certain times of day or at certain play levels? I feel like I see the same players often. Still, I will never stop playing this game. Word nerds, unite!

BEWARE

Great game but occasional offensive ads. PupLabs ad shows a dying dog.
