You can guess all the words you want per day and compete with other players for the top of the rankings.

### 3/5 — Too expensive

*2026-06-08*

Too expensive to buy and too much ads in the free version

### 1/5 — Das Spiel betrügt

*2026-03-29*

Buchstaben, die im Verlauf ausgeschlossen wurden, tauchen im Lösungswort wieder auf. Kein Wunder, dass bei Spielende die Lösungsfolge schnell verschwindet.

**Developer response:** Hallo Hans-Bernd
Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback. Ich nehme solche Hinweise immer ernst und habe den beschriebenen Fehler untersucht. Ich kann das Problem jedoch nicht reproduzieren. Das Spiel wurde bereits sehr oft gespielt, ohne dass dieser Fehler zuvor gemeldet wurde. Möglicherweise handelte es sich um einen einmaligen Anzeigefehler oder ein Missverständnis während des Spiels. Sollte das Problem erneut auftreten, freue ich mich über weitere Details oder einen Screenshot, damit ich es genauer untersuchen kann. Schreiben Sie gerne an ordle@shakebrowser.net.
MfG Jacob

### 4/5 — Eingeschränkt nutzbar

*2026-03-26*

Ich habe die werbefreie (immerhin 6,99 € teure) Version gekauft und mag die Gestaltung. Leider kann man den sechsten und siebten Buchstaben erst mit erfolgreich erspielten Sternen freischalten; sonst gut.

### 5/5 — Fit bleiben 😉👍

*2026-03-12*

Ein absoluter Hit für zwischendurch 😍

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-02-11*

This game is so great I loved how it felt and sounded. I absolutely love the live leaderboard

### 5/5 — Fehlerlos

*2026-01-14*

Ich bin positiv überrascht. Die App läuft fehlerlos und Wörter wie ‚World‘ oder ‚Muhle‘ werden anders als bei anderen Apps, die nur so tun, als gäbe es eine deutsche Version, nicht verwendet. Nach über 100 Runden gab es bis auf das seltsame (aber korrekte) Wort ‚Fatum‘ nur sinnvolle Begriffe.

### 5/5 — LOVING IT!

*2025-12-28*

I am loving this game. I like that the player gets to see the usable letters. It’s still very challenging but a lot of fun!

### 5/5 — Best Wordle App

*2025-12-19*

The colors, slight vibrations, and way the letters appear is very aesthetically pleasing. Could play this non stop all day everyday!

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2025-12-19*

The best Wordle game I’ve ever played. Great color combo, very easy on the eyes. Love the solve streak feature.

### 5/5 — Super App

*2025-12-18*

Die App läuft perfekt. Die Werbung ist nicht störend. Habe trotzdem bezahlt, da der Entwickler super Arbeit geleistet hat. Kein Limit von einem Rätsel pro Tag, sondern so viele, wie man möchte.
