### 1/5 — Spell Blitz Developers, what happened?

*2025-10-17*

I’ve played this game for years and truly enjoyed every minute of it and suddenly, without any warning messages from the developers, it’s gone!  Guys, you owe your faithful Blitz game players an answer!

### 1/5 — No App Support

*2025-10-07, version 1.0.2*

UPDATE: 10-07-2025

I contacted the developer. This app is no longer supported per the response I received. The leader board has me in first place because I’m the only person on it. 

This just started recently. I am going to delete the app. 

I would advise not purchasing coins. 

I’ve played this game for years. And I’m usually in the top 50, however, for the past few days I’m the only one listed in the worldwide leaderboard. I clicked the App’s Help to report this and I received an error message. I wonder if the creators of this app are no longer supporting this it. It’s a shame because it is a fun game.

### 5/5 — Addictive!

*2025-01-12*

I love this game even though my scores are not as high as I would like (would love to know some tricks!) but it is engaging on many levels.

I can play just to see how many words I find, with no attention to timing (fast finding words gives higher score)  or just see if my next game gets a higher score than the last.  Or just finding more words.  I don't play with others but would love to connect to find other folks's ideas/finds.  This game is my favorite and would play a lot more if I had the time.

### 5/5 — Great Game!!

*2024-04-03, version 1.0.2*

I Highly recommend this game!!!

You can play this game without having to use real money!

Very challenging! Play against leaderboards or I like trying to beat my own score.

Have been happily playing for over 5 years!

### 5/5 — M. McCoy

*2024-03-17*

I have played this game for 4 years now.  It helps keep my memory sharp and manual dexterity exercised.  I just turned 60 and my fingers have begun to stiffen and ache with overuse. 15-20 minutes AM and PM  keep my fingers flexible and mind sharp at the same time.  There is no cost to try this game. If  you are looking for a Fun Game With Benefits, try this game.

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2022-12-24*

Wake your mind up with this terrific game. You chose what you need in helpers to get a great score. These folks are generous in free rewards and do not clean out your wallet. I love it.

### 2/5 — Scoring seems inconsistent

*2020-01-06*

I’ve been playing awhile but will soon be deleting when I run out of coins. I don’t understand how anyone can get over a million in points in one game! The best scoring seems to be the charm with making a four letter word in a square. It really is a fun game to play even if it doesn’t accept all words. The random weird scoring just bugs me too much. Moving on...

### 2/5 — Questionable ads

*2019-05-30, version 1.0.2*

If this is rated 4 + why am I getting ads for a slots game with half naked women?!?!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-05-04*

This is a really fun and functional app. Yes there are ads but that’s to be expected. I do wish the discounted offers to buy coins was offered more frequently.

### 3/5 — Deleting

*2018-06-16, version 1.0.2*

Playing for a few days now. The ads irritate me - breaks my momentum. Will probably be deleting.
