Shuffle no longer working

It stopped about level three. Why?

Was fun when I COULD OPEN game.

Now game closes as it opens. How can you play a game that you can’t get to stay to stay open??? 😫

Fun but no way to close ads

I enjoy the game but every bad that pops up does not offer a way to close it without choosing “install”. Every time i use any other free app on my iPad or phone, and ads pop up, there’s an “X” to close the ad after it runs. Ads on Modern Words don’t offer that option. Super annoying.

Love it

Great all in one for this type of thing

TOO ANNOYING/FRUSTRATING...

Good basic idea, but POOR implementation -- as just ONE example (among many), when you choose to "watch ads to gain hints," the app JUST SITS THERE AND NOTHING HAPPENS -- pointless. Also, the crossword puzzles are ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE. After I finish writing this review, I WILL delete this app -- and that's a shame, because I like these kinds of games.
