Too many weird words

Some puzzles are fun, but so many of the words are not real. If you finally get one and then look it up, no dictionary anywhere can find it. I’m actually stuck in one now for three days, even AI can’t solve it, so I’m deleting the app.

So many glitches

I resent the multiple fake security alert “ads.” Clicking on tutorial leaves the screen covered in words without clearing it.

What happened?

After using this app with pleasure for a long time, today I got a modal message on the screen saying that my iPhone has been hacked etc. etc. It sounds like *this game* has been hacked! I immediately deleted it.

Type is hard to read, words obscure

Not for me

Used to be Good!

The ``hints'' function no longer works!

Abandoned ?

Not updated in over 4 years.
No more dictionary.
Haptics gone.
Pervasive fake scam advertising.
Must be an embarrassment for the dev. Perhaps just could care less.

Scam

This app has an ad that states “Your iPhone has been hacked. All your actions are tracked by a hacker. Immediate action is required!”
Deleted and reported.

Pop-up scam issue

I’ve used this app casually for years, I usually do the daily puzzle. Minutes ago, I received a pop-up scam while using the app…it visually masqueraded as a standard iPhone notification, very accurately so, and claimed ‘your phone has been hacked, immediate action is required, click here’ etc. Force-closing the program got rid of it so it was clearly from the program itself, probably an ad running from someone they receive money from. Clicking it would’ve likely led me to a phishing site or malware. This is unacceptable and you guys need to figure out who ran that scam pop-up because it’s going to turn off a lot of your users.

Ads are annoying

The app stated that if you purchase any of the game packs ads will go away. However, I’m still getting annoying long ads. The constant interruptions makes the game not fun to play.

Ignore This Title

Another great game by the one and only Zack Gage. I have others of his and each is a unique and challenging puzzle/game. I’m glad there are variations and having levels done by players is a nice addition too. Highly recommended for young and old. Flawless mechanics, as always. My cat loves to watch me at play!

Horrible

90% of the game is locked behind a paywall!

Great

Love this game but now need new packs to buy

It’s really five stars but…

… I wish they would offer more puzzles! I’ve purchased all the Standard Packs…

British / Australian English ?

If your going to make an app for either the American market or the British English market, either make it obvious which english it uses, or give me the option to change english dictionary’s.

If your not going to give the option to change dictionaries then market it as US only, or British English only. Makes a huge difference when you are guessing unusual words with word variations you are not used to.

Am enjoying this game for the variety. But please, please...

Alternatively provide clear labels for packs that focus on British English or American English. :)

Ads

I paid for content in this app. When I bought it to my new phone and restored my purchases it still shows ads. Uninstalled.

Turn off wifi

Hello to all the people complaining about adverts, turn off your wifi. I’ve never used it for playing games. If i need it I’ll turn it on but otherwise, no wifi = no adverts.

Ridiculous Words

Deleting this App...too many unheard words

Fun

One of my faves. Although, wish there where more clue puzzles. I have multiple games from this developer. Generally speaking about the developers… they are the ONLY developers that are fair about Ads and won’t inundate you like sooo many other games out there. Why I always go back to playing their games while others are nearly instantly deleted off my phone.

Missing something …

When playing the daily puzzle (or puzzles of that style) the goal is to have used all the letters. There are a set of words you are supposed to find but once you have used each letter the puzzle just ends. It would be better if you could keep searching for additional words. Sometimes you might be looking to form a word and then accidentally form a different one and it feels like it ends the game early.

This one gets three stars because it’s fairly unique but I’m always left feeling like it didn’t finish the puzzle even though the game says it’s done.

Great game but….

I love this game and play the daily puzzle as part of my morning routine. But, I miss being able to look up the meaning of words. Pleas add a dictionary in. Also, the ads at the end of the game are getting annoying. Often I can’t cry rid of them except by shutting down my phone which is a major impediment to enjoying the game.
