MORE ADD THEN GAME PLAY

More ads pop up on this game than any I have played before. This is the reason I deleted the app! Not to mention that the game aesthetic tacky it looks cheaply made.

Using ads to get help in the game is broken!

Anytime I try to get a help such a hint for a synonym or description and there are two ads it fails. After the first ad, it opens a window to download the game but it opens a completely different game from the one shown in the ad. Click the X and it closes the ad window and does not give any hint. This has been happening for about two weeks now. VERY frustrating. It also happens when I try to play older days in the month of daily games.

This app is broken

For the third time now in the last couple of weeks, I have lost all my progress as well as all the coins I built up. Including the holiday event. This game also has a habit of not fully logging progress because I had a good streak going but every month there’s at least one day that remains blue even if I completed it. It’s a shame cause this game was really fun while it lasted but I’m not gonna be motivated to keep playing anymore if my progress just keeps getting wiped out every other dang day. There really needs to be a button to manually save progress since the app fails to do it for you so this does not keep happening to me or anyone else who decides to play. PLEASE fix this!

Update: It had been working well the last couple of days so I was able to get progress back from july all the way through mid November but once again this afternoon it stopped working again! I have emailed about the issue and never got a response back. This issue is ridiculous and most certainly NOT fixed

Thank you for reporting this. We've identified and fixed a save system bug that was preventing progress from being stored correctly in certain situations. The latest version should resolve this issue going forward. If any other issues persist, please don't hesitate to email us and we'll help you out.

Lost all my progress

Played this for about a year and then one morning I lost all my progress. Coins that I had worked so hard to save, gone. No thanks. I check back every so often to see if it’s been restored. Nothing. Fun game, but don’t take my rewards.

Thank you for reaching out and apologize for the data loss. Our v2.x update introduced major performance improvements, including a new save system that loads significantly faster but some saves didn't migrate. To restore: Update app → Shop → Others → Restore Game Data → Restart app. If issues continue, email us and we'll help you out.

Erased all my points and gems

For some unknown reason, when I recently opened the game, I noticed all of my points and gems had reset to zero. I had been playing for quite some time and had built up. Lots of score. Period.

Deleted All My Progress

Really 2.5 rating. Had the game for months, always play the daily game for coins. Suddenly all my coins/progress was gone. Not the worst thing but just annoying

What the heck?!

The game is fun and all, but something just happened. For some reason while playing it, the app reset. And not only that it won’t let me restore my purchases. So now I’m getting ads again. What happened?!?

Fun game but ads are too long

60 second ad after 1-2 rounds is way too long. No option to skip ad either. I enjoy the game but it’s frustrating to have to wait so long for the ad.

We heard you! Ad frequency has been reduced in the latest update for a better experience. Please update to the newest version. If you'd like ad-free gameplay and want to support development, consider our No Ads purchase. Thanks for your feedback!

Buttons too close together

I was accidentally hitting ‘skip’ instead of the back button because they are so close together, wish we could just buy the app and not have to watch 60 ads after every other game, and hit the x button multiple times to get back to the game. We enjoyed playing this with our kids, it just took way too long to get from one level to the next with all the ads.

Thanks for the feedback! We've listened and adjusted the button layout in the latest version to work better across all device screen sizes and resolutions. This should prevent accidental taps.

Not good for kids

I just downloaded this game and the first slot to fill out was drag queen. I don’t know about other people but I wouldn’t want my kids to learn about this stuff at a really young age. Plus it’s for ages four and up, and most four years olds can’t read.

The game uses common English words and phrases found in dictionaries and everyday language. "Drag queen" is a widely recognized term in mainstream culture and entertainment. Word puzzle games naturally include diverse vocabulary from the real world. We appreciate your feedback and understand different families have different preferences.

not worth my time

every round was an add. made no sense for the rounds. couldn’t last 5 minutes playing.

just gimme a name.

Would be fun but

There are way too many ads can’t enjoy playing game because it’s more ads than actual getting a chance to play

The British are coming

All these puzzles are in the Queens English. I’m just a dumb American, I don’t drink tea, and I don’t know phrases from the UK.

No Intructions

I’ve been enjoying the game so far and found almost all the games pretty easy to learn on my own. My only issue so far is that the Wordle Chain is hard to understand and there are no instructions that have been able to find so far. I have no clue how to play it or what the yellow letters mean.

Thanks for playing and glad you're enjoying it! You're right - Wordle Chain could use clearer instructions. Yellow means the letter is in the word but wrong position, green means correct letter and position. We'll add better in-game instructions in a future update to make this clearer upfront.

Not good

It’s almost like AI or non-English speakers designed this app.

The words are connected, but not because they are a phrase. Sometimes there will be a phrase, other times it is something loosely associated to it such as: Queen —> Mother —> Nature —> Forest —> Hill

Literally nonsense

Thanks for the feedback. The game concept is "word chain" - each word connects to the next through common associations or compound phrases (like "mother nature" or "nature trail"). Queen→Mother works as "queen mother," Mother→Nature as "mother nature," etc. We understand this might feel loose sometimes and appreciate you sharing your perspective.
