Also the fact that the ad breaks come up in the middle of a game is very annoying. I’ve already quit three apps because ads interrupt the game. This one may be next on my list. **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your feedback. We're truly sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Would not let me progress in certain levels just left it on the screen fully finished but I couldn’t make any moves so I had to restart the level. After the 4th time of it restating me at about 5 levels back (levels I had already cleared) I delete it. Shame because it was a great game. If the glitches can be figured out I’d definitely redownload. I recommended if you aren’t to hung up on your progress in leaves and don’t mind replaying levels again. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Greed greed greed. *2026-08-19* Used to be enjoying but not now! Not even worth the time to download! ### 1/5 — What did you do?? *2026-06-14* You made a GREAT GAME PAY TO PLAY! I used to love this game.. now all of a sudden you only get a certain number of moves ?!?! Another game RUINED BY GREEDY DEVELOPERS! I am deleting it today … am so disappointed. Now you can “ buy” more moves? Seriously? If you ever change it back let me know, but this update/ change ruined the joy of the game… WHY? Why must every game have “updates” that include new in app purchases ? It’s so frustrating and I had to voice my frustrations… so bummed to lose the game. Such a shame! ### 1/5 — ADS! *2026-05-11* The more I played this game, the ads continued to increase. There is no option to buy an ad free version so I will delete this app. ### 1/5 — Ads, ads and more ads *2026-03-03* I’m deleting this because of how many ads I have to watch compared to the time I spend in a game ### 1/5 — Game *2026-01-22, version 1.7* Unamous,, your game doesn’t make sense to play. You have to Ty and get hints because the cards don’t move when a row is complete. Then you have to wait through the ads for the hints. Sad because it is a nice game ### 2/5 — Suspicious content warnings, your phone may have been hacked ETC. *2026-04-12* I’m sadly deleting the app. I absolutely loved this game until these warnings kept popping up… for days now. ### 2/5 — Word Bond *2026-03-06* I thought this was going to be a great word exercise game- BUT- Way TOO Many ADs! More time is spent watching ADs than getting to do word game! ### 3/5 — Ads *2026-04-03* Promoted as not having Ads but it does. Fun game but too many ads ### 3/5 — Ads *2026-03-17* There is an Ad for this game that says it is ad free and this seemed to be true until game level 17 where they start to appear. Disappointed enjoyed game until ads started ### 3/5 — Ads *2026-02-27* The game says no ads, but the ads keep coming… **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your feedback.

Not many ads! ### 5/5 — New game happy *2026-03-08* Just started playing this game and so far I’m loving it. Engaging but not so hard that you can’t move forward. No ads yet so I’m happy. ### 5/5 — Word Bond - Association Game *2026-02-27* This game is pretty challenging for me. I am over 70 and try to keep my mind sharp. Me thinks these kinds of games help do just that. Thanks to the developers . It’s a WIN! Have a blessed day. ### 5/5 — Levels *2026-02-20* One of my favorite games. I downloaded a few games that’s similar and this one was the best thus far. I’ve made it to level 500. When will there be more levels? The only flaw to me is the word repetition. Next few levels use different words. Thank you! ☺️ ### 5/5 — Word game fanatic *2026-02-20* I love word games. I spent several hours every day playing them. I find that most of them are not very challenging for me. However, I stumbled upon Word Bond today and I find I am addicted. It is very challenging and takes a lot of thinking and figuring to clear the board in this game. Wish more were like this one. ### 5/5 — Fun Game *2026-01-06* Makes you think! ### 5/5 — Good game *2026-01-05* Very fun ### 4/5 — Yes there are ads!! *2026-03-02* Pretty sure this game was promoted as having no ads! Not only does it have them, but it’s one of those where they pop up in the mix of playing the game. Obviously annoying… I do really like the game, so far the categories make sense and it’s fun to pass a little time and exercise the brain. ### 4/5 — Challenging *2026-01-25* Would be a 5 star review if it was not for the ads. Way too many and sometimes they come on in the middle of a game….multiple times. **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for the comment. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Indeed, there are no annoying ads that cannot be skipped or closed. However, as you may know, our game is free to download, and we still need ad revenue to support our development and maintenance. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
