Please adjust the viewing area for the new phones and the rating will be higher. Thank you ### 3/5 — Could be better *2022-06-13, version 201.0.4* Great game, but it doesn’t fit on the iPhone 13 screen properly. ### 4/5 — Love the gameplay, developer unresponsive to issues with purchases *2021-10-14, version 201.0.1* I love the concept behind this game, and really enjoy it. Had an issue with a purchase and couldn’t get a response from the developer (only reason I took off a star). Otherwise it’s one of my favorite games. Being able to find other words to charge your batteries makes this game much more enjoyable- I can solve categories I know nothing about just by finding other random words to charge batteries or find parts of the answer. ### 4/5 — Closes on its own *2020-12-03, version 200.2.0* Would give this 5 stars, but the game shuts down every time I try to choose Pizza Toppings. ### 4/5 — fun but crashes *2020-10-04, version 200.2.0* I absolutely love this game, but every time i open the pizza toppings category my game crashes. it also crashes at random times. if they’d fix these little bugs it’d be perfect ### 3/5 — Good *2020-08-08, version 200.2.0* But not great. Too many glitches and even incorrect spelling/typographical errors that made it harder. Two of the glitches threw me out of the game completely. Towards completing the game (not actually possible because of the ‘throw out’ glitch) it regularly offered completed subjects that just made matters worse. Finally had to give up after having enjoyed the game overall. Not very satisfying after a lot of effort. ### 3/5 — Pizza toppings *2020-05-09, version 200.2.0* Please fix pizza toppings-it just closes the app when I click on it. Tired of using disks because that is my only choice. ### 4/5 — Please fix Pizza Toppings *2019-12-14, version 200.2.0* Application crashes whenever you click on pizza toppings. Please fix! ### 3/5 — Pizza toppings *2019-09-30, version 200.2.0* Love the game would give 5* but the games cuts off every time I click on the pizza toppings! Please fix the problem ### 4/5 — Keeps Crashing *2019-08-25, version 200.2.0* Keeps crashing when I click on category Pizza Toppings ### 3/5 — Great game but too many requests for money *2019-07-10, version 200.2.0* I love this game and had a totally free version on my kindle which I really miss. Pizza topping crashes my game! ### 4/5 — Needs an update *2019-05-12, version 200.2.0* Solid game. Great time. BUT, pizza toppings crashes the app. I’ve kept rebooting. Nothing works. Please fix ### 4/5 — Decent *2018-08-17, version 1.90* This game is fun but I hate how you have to buy disks to keep playing and I wish you could look at all the ones you’ve completed because I feel like I’m not progressing with the game ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Uninstalling. No longer fun to play. *2025-02-23, version 202.0.5* The new update makes game play tediously slow. More importantly, there are intrusive advertisements after EVERY board. My recommendation is to support a vendor that understands their user base. ### 1/5 — Why?!!! *2025-02-11, version 202.0.0* Latest update totally ruined this game! Why? ### 1/5 — I hate the new update *2025-02-10, version 202.0.0* UPDATE: Scam! I paid to remove ads but I’m now getting ads again and can’t remove them. This was clearly the point of the update. Of course Apple doesn’t provide a way to report the scam. Original below: I’ve been playing LfWs for over a decade but the new update feels like a bad clone of the original. The graphics is uglier, the TEXT is tiny now making it hard to read. The feels like a completely unnecessary destructive change. I wish Apple didn’t force us to update the apps. ### 1/5 — Used to be good *2025-02-08, version 201.0.4* I used to love this game and played all the time. Now it’s just full of spelling errors and wrong info. Kind of hard to get a word when the letter isn’t there, then you realize it’s just because they spell the word wrong. ### 1/5 — Conan *2024-12-22, version 201.0.4* Never choose the category entitled Conan. I have reached the point where I can’t go no farther, all the choices are Conan only, and when I play and win, the counter stays at the same number. I don’t go up another level I just play the same level over and over and over and over again! I have no more data disc and it’s been forever since I’ve gotten a free one. Used to love this game. 🥹 ### 1/5 — Get so far freezes and purchases not reinstated *2023-12-12, version 201.0.4* No app support you get so far and each of the catagories freeze so you go to the next catagory which freezes and then you cant use the game - the purchases you make are useless and if you delete and reinstate the app it gakes you back to the very beginning and wont give your purchases back - you end up doing the same catagory over and o ver again and there is no way of contacting them to get help - but was grsat whilst jsing it up to this point ### 1/5 — Misspells words *2019-09-10, version 200.2.0* Not only does this app miss spell about 10% of all the words, but it advertises inappropriate porn. Would not recommend for adults, let alone older children and teens working on spelling. ### 1/5 — banner *2017-04-03, version 1.79* boring now fed up with music rounds ### 2/5 — Used to love this game… *2023-06-24, version 201.0.4* …but now I’m on an endless merry-go-round of music rounds and that’s my least favourite subject - haven’t been offered anything other than music for months. ### 2/5 — Awful ads *2021-02-05, version 201.0.1* I really enjoy this game. However, the ads are worse than ever before. I’m trying to relax and I get an ad with man raping a woman. My kid plays this game sometimes. I really don’t need my child seeing that, nor do I want to be seeing that. I can’t even give this app a decent rating due to the disgusting ads it throws in my face. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Why ads now? *2025-03-10, version 202.0.5* Suddenly there is an ad after every level. USED to be an enjoyable game. Sigh….. ### 5/5 — Addictive *2019-12-09, version 200.2.0* Love this game. I spend hours playing. ### 5/5 — Love this Game! *2019-07-28, version 200.2.0* Keep updating! It would take years to finish every single level so there is never ending fun. Could you add the Jonas Brothers, Post Malone, and the new Disney movies. Maybe have a new category in Music for the Top 40 for each year or each decade? Also could you update the new albums from Nicki Minaj and Ed Sheeran. Thank you!!! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2019-06-30, version 200.2.0* I absolutely love the game very much but when I try to click on pizza toppings category the app crashes. I’ve tried restarting and restoring my phone and also deleting the app and installing it but it still happens. I don’t know why. That’s the only one I have a problem playing ### 5/5 — Good *2019-04-19, version 200.2.0* Good game I love it but was wondering if you could add a bobs burgers category ### 5/5 — Good game *2019-03-23, version 200.2.0* One think about the game is when I touch the pizza toppings the game cuts out every time. Can you do some think about it please. ### 5/5 — Love *2018-10-28, version 200.0.8* Love this game!!! It keeps my mind really hopping!! ### 5/5 — Absolutely Love *2018-09-25, version 1.90* This is my favorite game to decompress with at the end of the day. One thing I would love to see added is a M.A.S.H. pack. :) ### 5/5 — Maxsmom *2018-05-02, version 1.90* Makes you think! ### 5/5 — Can't stop! *2018-04-16, version 1.90* I haven't been able to stop playing this game! The trivia part gets progressively harder, so I let my kids play the early categories until they need my help.
