Ruined

Love the game but can you fix end game as it doesnโ€™t work or maybe after pressing 50 times.

Terrible ads and no option to pay to remove them.

Ads should be removable by upgrading to a non ad solution. This game is now ruined

Hate the updated game May 2026

I used to love this game, I hate the updates they made in May 2026. Game is way too slow to play now , I will uninstall it after this review and search for another game. The rolling over of letters takes forever and is annoying, the constant pop up reminders if I type too fast , instead of just letting me play. The button to close & start another game is gone, you have to now go through the settings, no thanks!
Do not like anything about this new version of the game.

What a shame i would pay for app no problem

What a shame on the last update I played every day why not just release a paid version without having to serve ads or collect all the data they can and selling your data to hundreds of the so called trusted partners

Ads annoying

The new version is nice, except for the ads which are far too hard to get out of. So when a game is over I simply leave the game now.

If your aim was to drive players away then congratulations you have succeeded.
