It’s fun and I like how it keeps my mind working. I recommend for all the puzzle people 😉 ### 5/5 — Love this *2022-03-05* A very amazing game. Makes you think hard at times to solve.

There is no save progress option ### 5/5 — MysteryWord puzzle *2021-09-05, version 1.2.0* Fun game because I’m not a good speller and I like crossword puzzles ant this word game helps me love the game ### 5/5 — Mystery Word Puzzle *2021-08-18* This is one of the best word games. I have been enjoying it for quite a while. I love all of the People Fun games. Thanks! ### 5/5 — MysteryWord *2021-08-15, version 1.2.0* I love it so far ### 4/5 — Too many ads *2021-07-28, version 1.2.0* One too many ads ### 5/5 — Janici *2021-07-11, version 1.2.0* Excellent game but quite a few annoying ads ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Faulty Program *2024-06-15, version 1.2.0* I love the game, but I’ve come to a point ( for the second time) where there is a problem with the programming. I’ve sent pictures to customer support, but no response. I’m very disappointed in customer service and there doesn’t seem to be any support. ### 1/5 — Too frequent ads killing the fun *2023-07-27, version 1.2.0* It’s all fun till you hit by the ads too frequently. ### 1/5 — ADS *2020-10-23* This game is very good. BUT ! The ads are terrible. Flashing casino ads constantly along the bottom of the game. Full page ads after almost every page. And $10.00 to get them removed. I have always liked people fun games but this is now the last straw. Your greed is disgusting. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS GAME OR ANY OTHER OF THE PEOPLE FUN GAMES. ### 2/5 — Why doesn’t it work in horizontal view? *2021-08-16* So many great apps out there, but every time I download a good game & it won’t play in horizontal mode on my iPad Pro, I delete it immediately. It’s uncomfortable & cumbersome to play in vertical view, holding the iPad Pro. To all you developers, let me know when you fixed the issue and I can play the game in either mode like I supposed to be able to. ### 3/5 — Repeat? *2023-04-20, version 1.2.0* It was great till it wasn't. Puzzles are repeating and what are the coins for? ### 3/5 — Why *2021-04-12, version 1.2.0* Do you reject good words? What is wrong with the word true? ### 3/5 — I like this game *2021-02-16, version 1.2.0* This is a clever puzzle game and makes me think. ### 3/5 — Okay, But... *2020-06-29, version 1.0.1* Good game, But on some levels word strings are repeated and there are a lot of valid words that are not in the game dictionary ? ### 4/5 — It’s fun but *2024-05-22* I’m confused about the goal - Am I supposed to try to solve each puzzle with the fewest number of tries? Or am I supposed to guess as many incorrect words as possible in order to rack up coins? This game is one of the few I’ve encountered that rewards you for failing. ### 4/5 — another nice game *2024-04-19* from People Fun. I’m disappointed, however that the game does not sync between devices like other games from this company, such as WordStacks. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome *2025-01-07, version 1.2.0* Brilliant App! ### 5/5 — Fun game *2024-11-24, version 1.2.0* Fun game, just enough of a challenge to be enjoyable, a pleasant distraction. ### 5/5 — Senior Moment *2023-12-02, version 1.2.0* This game helps me think fast. It is very relaxing. I truly enjoying playing this game. ### 5/5 — Favorite word game *2023-11-10* I play a ton of word games, but this is by far my favorite and least frustrating ### 5/5 — Mystery word *2023-11-03, version 1.2.0* Great game ### 5/5 — Great game *2023-08-12, version 1.2.0* Really makes you think! ### 5/5 — Good game *2022-12-08, version 1.2.0* Good game to take your mind off of things. ### 5/5 — Fun *2022-08-27, version 1.2.0* Relaxing easy to play ### 5/5 — Good one *2022-07-31, version 1.2.0* Another great word game from People Fun. ### 5/5 — Fun & enjoyable. *2022-05-28, version 1.2.0* Nice variation on Wordscapes, which I also enjoy.
