### 1/5 — Often impossible to complete!

*2022-10-06, version 1.1*

I was really enjoying this game, until it started putting in unsolvable puzzles. For example, "_ORED", with the only playable letter being "X". This makes "EXUDE" going down, no problem, but "XORED"?? Really? In exasperation I tried every letter in the alphabet, including those that had already been excluded, and while it recognised the valid words, "BORED, GORED, PORED, SORED", "XORED" was, quite rightly, rejected. BECAUSE IT ISN'T A WORD!! And yet is the only combination that works. Similarly, in a previous game, the final non-word to complete the game was "PSSST".  I kid you not. This was also, quite rightly, rejected, making it impossible to complete the game. So, so frustrating!
I'll be deleting this app and concentrating my attention on Waffle Unlimited and my daily NYT Wordle fix.

### 1/5 — Trash is the word

*2025-02-22*

Started out fine and then three games in it started to not take letters, put in words that were not words and repeated the same words over and over. Don’t waste your time!

### 1/5 — Trash

*2025-01-19*

It doesn’t work.  It’ll say a word has a letter then after a guess that letter will be gone from the list only to reappear after the next guess.  It happened in three games that I played or attempted to play.  Also how about a solve button? I’d like to see a solution for some impossible (on their part) boards

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work right

*2024-04-14*

Zero star rating was not an option. I was looking for a way to practice squareword and saw this app. I saw the other review and thought maybe it’s been fixed, so I tried it. Nope, it hasn’t been fixed. In my first and only game I had O O _ _ E, with the letters L and D in the word but not placed. I tried OODLE but the game said that was not a word. So I tried OOLDE and it said that was also not a word. At that point my only viable option was to delete the game, which I did. Waste of five minutes.

### 1/5 — Inappropriate words

*2024-04-07*

Some words they use don’t exist. Some words are inappropriate for a family word game

### 1/5 — Words too obscure

*2023-12-12*

I don’t know where these words come from!

### 1/5 — MASSIVE BUGS

*2023-10-16, version 1.1*

You put in the solution and it doesn’t work !!  The answer ETEXT … but it won’t accept the answer. I had to put in PROXY to permit the letter to be accepted. … fix the game or get out of the business. If you don’t have the IT algorithm retire.

### 1/5 — Impossible to play and enjoy

*2023-07-19*

A potentially fun format, but far too many of the words are obscure beyond any chance of guessing them. On a single board I had the words ‘allel’, ‘yaird’, ‘cepes’, ‘igapo’, and ‘yacca’ as 5/10 words. Basically forced to just guess random combinations of letters to complete the board because these aren’t words anyone is figuring out, which is zero fun to play.

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2023-06-28*

There are multiple times the letters in a word don’t work even though it tells you that’s what’s missing and no other letter could work. Also, many words are just weird and not common English. Paid for no ads because they were annoying but I regret it as the bugs are just as annoying.

### 1/5 — Some puzzles unsolvable

*2023-05-19*

At first when I downloaded this game it was fine. Since then, there are some lines that no letter you input will solve the word.

### 1/5 — What language is this?

*2023-03-09*

Some of the words are either not English or made up to fill in. A lot if the puzzles are unsolvable because of that

### 2/5 — Needs work

*2023-05-04*

This would be a really fun game but it needs a better dictionary.  Not all words in the puzzles are actual English words.
