### 5/5 — Difficult but fun!

*2025-12-12, version 2.0.0*

I always spend a couple hours on the final round of gauntlet mode, but it feels so good when you finally get it! I don’t really get the talking animals though. Maybe they can give vague hints instead of poking fun at me 😂

### 5/5 — Cheeky word game

*2025-11-29, version 2.0.0*

Cheeky, fun and challenging word game without the annoying ad’s!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t recognize valid words

*2025-11-28, version 2.0.0*

This app doesn’t accept valid words. I do Wordle every day and “Kench” and “Flump” are valid words - well this app doesn’t think so. Who knows how many other valid words it doesn’t recognize? Deleted.

### 3/5 — Please make this compatible with iPads

*2025-09-16, version 2.0.0*

My parents really want to play this game but the keyboard and puzzle doesn’t scale to iPads.  You have 2 accessibility options but nothing to enlarge the resolution.

I am loving this game. I really like all the different ways you can play and as someone who is constantly distracted, i love that it SAVES my progress!! 👏. Also the no ads AT ALL is amazing and honestly sooo refreshing these days. But yeah good fun and can be challenging, would recommend! 👍

### 5/5 — Perfectly done game!

*2025-02-12, version 1.6.0*

Great game, great price, no data collection or ads, small file size, works perfectly, great on battery, lots of play options, saves progress at all times. I randomly found this while looking for a good word game to play in short spurts. So glad I came across it. I highly recommend it!
