Too many ads

### 4/5 — Review

*2026-08-29, version 9.826.515*

Too much ads

### 3/5 — Butterfly

*2026-08-29, version 9.826.515*

Some words I know are words you don’t take.

### 4/5 — Good <3

*2026-08-24, version 9.811.513*

This game is not too hard but not too easy. One thing i would change is there are so many advertisements for other brands and games and also some that are for in game purchases. Otherwise this game is great for brain training and a cure for boredom

### 5/5 — Relaxante

*2026-08-23*

Nota 10

### 5/5 — Kay

*2026-08-23, version 9.811.513*

### 5/5 — Nbbb

*2026-08-22, version 9.811.513*

Bbn

### 5/5 — Love

*2026-08-18, version 9.811.513*

Love this game so much! I do it for stress relief and when I’m bored! Love using my brain in different ways!

### 5/5 — Word Correct

*2026-08-16, version 9.811.513*

Is the best!

### 4/5 — Clues

*2026-08-15, version 9.811.513*

You make us watch adds then will not let us get back to the game not funny and makes me quit playing many games and if I don’t play I don’t buy extra points  so I save money and you lose

### 5/5 — Lots of fun!

*2026-08-15, version 9.811.513*

I enjoy playing this game.

### 3/5 — Bonus winning

*2026-08-14, version 9.811.513*

Not enough motivating bonuses.  Needs more goals or mini games.  Still fun for spellers!

### 5/5 — Word  Connect

*2026-08-14, version 9.811.513*

Play the Game .

### 5/5 — Word Connect

*2026-08-14, version 9.811.513*

very relaxing to play at night before bed

### 4/5 — Barb McAlister

*2026-08-13, version 9.811.513*

I enjoy your game but find it frustrating that when I get the words correctly you give me between 20 to 40 coins but if I need some help it costs 160 coins for each letter or 480 coins for the whole word.  This isn’t fair.  Most of us can recognize or guess most of the letters but not all of them every time and can really lose all their coins on one puzzle.  Comment please!

### 5/5 — Word Connect

*2026-08-13, version 9.811.513*

I love this game, it’s crazy how just by rearranging the letters then I’ll see a word. Love it!

### 3/5 — Aggravating

*2026-08-13, version 9.811.513*

This is not a relaxing game. It is more irritating than expected. Pop ups while connecting letters, won’t connect to their network, words the common person has never heard of, words in Webster’s Dictionary that are not accepted, some abbreviations not accepted and some are. This is only a few things that are not good.

### 5/5 — great connection

*2026-08-12, version 9.811.513*

this is the most fun app there is!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Way too easy

*2026-08-13, version 9.811.513*

This game is boring. I thought it would eventually increase the difficulty but nope. Also, the amount of pop ups when starting the app is ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Dictionary has gone awry

*2026-08-12, version 9.811.513*

Have been playing for years and love this game. However

I have latest version of word connect, updated today. 
Before the update I noticed today the dictionary does not accept very common words. This is the same after the update. 

I am on level 39533. I am using iPad Air (4th generation) iOS  26.6

Words now not accepted as an example (these were accepted before today)
Aide
Arid
Aids 
Dune
Heat
Cat

I think this started happening at around 13:39 UTC

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-08-12, version 9.811.513*

So many words not being recognized, this update is garbage. Spot, add, tops, veto. Just a sample

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-08-04, version 9.729.512*

Disgusting game 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎

### 1/5 — Insulting Ad

*2026-07-16, version 9.707.509*

The ad alone makes me NOT want to download the game

### 1/5 — Hate the picnic table!

*2026-07-15, version 9.707.509*

how did I get it? Did I push a button I didn’t realize or is this the way the game is going to look because I’m not a fan!

### 1/5 — Not happy with the game at the present time.

*2026-07-05, version 9.702.508*

There is an ad that comes up and it is just a black screen with a red line at the top. I have to exit the game to get rid of it. I have emailed with the screenshot that was requested but I’m still getting it. 😡

### 1/5 — Update won’t load the game

*2026-07-04, version 9.702.508*

This latest update has completely broken the game for me as I can’t even load it. It freezes at the free spin the wheel section and doesn’t load.

### 1/5 — Wrong game

*2026-07-03, version 9.702.508*

Just another word cookie game not a matching game which is shown on the app.

### 1/5 — Sad

*2026-06-24, version 9.617.506*

I have been playing this game for a very long time and it is the best word
game I have found.  But having said that, the ton of ads that you have now, plus the weekly fee when there never was one before, is just too much!  I am sadly deleting this app!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-08-31, version 9.826.515*

My favorite game

### 5/5 — Word Connect

*2026-08-31, version 9.826.515*

Fantastic spelling game, I have been playing it for years. Absolutely love it. Over time the company have improved it. It just gets better and even more fun. Give a go, you won’t be disappointed it’s fab.

### 5/5 — Truth.

*2026-08-29, version 9.826.515*

This is a good and fun game but the previews of it are very misleading. The preview shows you had a picture and you had the name what the picture was and choose. The correct spelling. That is not this game. This game has a bunch of letters you have to randomly order to form words, fun game, but not what the previous says it is.

### 5/5 — Littlebit

*2026-08-28, version 9.826.515*

I wish this word game had been available 65 years ago. I always had trouble with spelling, but this game has improved my spelling so much. I have been playing it since probably the end of the 2010’s . I highly recommend this game to parents for their children to learn to spell better. Thank you for developing it.

### 5/5 — Dictionary has gone awry

*2026-08-27, version 9.820.514*

Posted the below and gave a 1 star review. Developer contacted and told me it had been fixed. It is now. Good effort.

### 5/5 — Years and years

*2026-08-27, version 9.826.515*

I am in my 8th or 9th year playing this game. It’s relaxing and continues to challenge my mind!

### 5/5 — Ótimo para passar o tempo e exercitar a mente

*2026-08-26*

Bom

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2026-08-26, version 9.820.514*

Very fun & educational for spelling! Keeps my brain sharp

### 5/5 — Too many envelopes, not enough coins.

*2026-08-26, version 9.820.514*

There are too many envelopes given out as rewards. I’ll never have no more little flying envelopes on my words again. I haven’t been below 30 in a few weeks.

### 5/5 — Best game

*2026-08-25, version 9.820.514*

Love it I play it daily
