### 3/5 — Stuck

*2024-08-24, version 3.4.1*

My letters are stuck at only 3 letters. I tried playing a hint but that didn't work either. Please advise. Tried to check on app support.... It doesn't work either.

### 4/5 — Fun but not comprehensive.

*2021-02-21, version 3.4.1*

Need to recognize more words, such as sept (clan). Which dictionary is being used for the word selection? Regardless, it’s a fun habit!

### 5/5 — Please Update!!

*2020-11-05, version 3.4*

Love this game. Hints is only giving me vowels. I’m stuck! Please fix this!

### 5/5 — Highly recommend

*2020-04-27*

Another amazing game by this developer! Super fun and really makes you think!

### 5/5 — You Minded Your P's, But NOT Your Q’s

*2019-10-12, version 3.4*

Amazing! But I'm just asking, why is there no letter Q in this game? There are 4-letter words that start Q! Quip, quiz, qaid, and qadi are some examples. I'm not mad, but why isn't there the letter Q?

### 5/5 — Learn more words!

*2019-02-07, version 3.4*

Needs to learn more words! raku for example! Ads cover something on the bottom. No instructions for new puzzle? You should re-develop ‘wordly’. It was as good as this game but a vocabulary challenge. So sad it’s gone.

### 5/5 — Fun time

*2018-11-23, version 3.4*
