### 4/5 — Enjoyable

*2023-12-16, version 2.1.1*

I love this game, but using the rewards you get when you spend are not at all accessible.  I have tons of rewards but no way to use them…. Help files not clear, not helpful.

### 4/5 — Great game!

*2021-05-22, version 2.1.1*

Can anyone tell me how to clear the gray tiles?  Much appreciated!

### 4/5 — More Levels Please!

*2020-12-03, version 2.1.1*

I really like this game but can’t believe the adventure levels stop at Level 50! I’ve done all of them with ⭐️⭐️⭐️Please can you add more levels??

### 4/5 — Ads - too many too long

*2020-05-14*

If you’re playing the Timed game, a 30-second ad every 2 minutes is way too much. Not playing again till that’s changed. It kills it.

### 3/5 — I like it But POOR INSTRUCTIONS

*2019-06-11, version 2.0.7*

Usually I don’t need instructions. But if you don’t have a key how the heck do you unlock the lock?? You can’t expect me to buy keys to play the game! If so then this game is extremely self limiting. If there is a way to unlock the lock without a key please advise and I will readjust my rating, as this has been my only hindrance which has stopped me from playing and advancing.

### 4/5 — Word falls

*2019-01-13, version 2.0.6*

I’m not enjoying this version as much as the previous one, also all my badges (20 odd) and records have disappeared! I preferred the layout of the previous word falls and the games too.

### 4/5 — Game freeze

*2018-10-23, version 1.0.24*

Love the game ,but have been experiencing lots of freezing.

### 5/5 — Lucky8.

*2017-09-11, version 1.0.24*

Gets your brain into gear - quick.  Great fun!

### 5/5 — Word Falls

*2017-07-22, version 1.0.24*

Keeps my brain working well!!

### 3/5 — Great with exception

*2017-07-08, version 1.0.24*

Great game but unable to listen to podcasts while playing. Please fix this bug and I'll fix my review!

### 5/5 — Fun and free

*2017-06-24, version 1.0.24*

You have many options- difficulty level, solo play versus competitive.

### 1/5 — Confusing

*2022-04-14, version 2.1.1*

Love the concept but the different obstacles at every level is confusing. Also, not sure if I’m at the end of the game but after 50 levels you can’t go any further? There are no directions or instructions to help.

### 1/5 — Fine when it works

*2021-12-05, version 2.1.1*

Enjoyable when I can play it. Have been playing for a year now and it always crashed. At least was semi playable until recently, now doesn’t even open. App and Apple support gave no solution. Not worth investing 👎🏻

### 1/5 — I loved it when it opened

*2021-10-05, version 2.1.1*

I bought this game and enjoyed it very much. Phone update and app update…now it doesn’t open at all. I have to wait a few seconds thinking it will open but it disappears and I’m back to Home Screen. I’d sure like my money back or tell me how to fix this issue.

### 1/5 — Original Word Falls

*2019-01-08, version 2.0.6*

Why was it changed?  The original was a terrific game.  I guess I will delete it.  Leadbags

### 1/5 — Togram

*2017-05-20, version 1.0.24*

If you are going to have ads then let's get out of  them when we want to

### 2/5 — Too hard

*2022-05-23, version 2.1.1*

Was really enjoying this game, started out as a good game, but gets to Unwinnable levels. I have probably played this level about 50 times, the letters come down too slow  to earn enough points to win the level and there’s nothing you can press to speed up the letters, you can freeze them but not speed them up. Not good. It’s very disappointing as I really love the game. Like others Will have to delete it due to the unwinnable levels…

### 2/5 — Freezes upon start

*2022-01-09, version 2.1.1*

It takes four tries for this app to open. I love the game but it’s frustrating

### 2/5 — No way to keep playing

*2021-07-31, version 2.1.1*

The time allowed to play is too short. Why can’t we watch an ad like on Words With Friends & keep playing when we have time?
The time it takes to get more stars is too long. Plus, we should be able to save up more than 15!

### 2/5 — Great potential

*2020-10-11, version 2.1.1*

This games basic idea is awesome and super fun to play. However, the app crashes regularly when trying to open on an iPhone. There doesn’t seem to be any reward when you win a level so to play you end up buying lots of tokens and additional special feature times. You can earn free tokens but you have to wait 20 min for one token or you have to watch ads to earn a token (even if you’ve paid for a no add version), not great when most games are fairly short.  much of the additional mechanics are unclear as it doesn’t cover more then a few basics on its help feature. The game mechanics need some more thought or they need to offer a better value in app purchase option. After having it for two weeks I’ve loved the game but find it bad value so will delete unless I see some improvements.

### 3/5 — Shutting down

*2021-12-20, version 2.1.1*

When I try accessing the game it closes completely

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Game freezes up

*2022-12-03, version 2.1.1*

This game has been fun until it has been freezes up or won’t start at all.

### 5/5 — Review

*2022-10-10, version 2.1.1*

I enjoyed the previous version better

There is one ad that you can’t get rid of.  You can’t play the game because the ad just stays there for several day.

### 5/5 — Compulsive

*2021-01-28, version 2.1.1*

Enjoy this game too much !

### 5/5 — Love the game

*2021-01-04, version 2.1.1*

Love the game the only game I play

### 5/5 — Not Enough Directions

*2020-06-08, version 2.1.1*

The instructions don’t show you how to clear the grey tiles, what the numbers mean or how to use the tools. Waste a lot of time and tokens figuring it out!

### 5/5 — Word falls

*2019-11-08, version 2.0.7*

The more you play the quicker you become and the more you see.
Good training for a sharper brain.

### 5/5 — Game

*2019-02-10, version 2.0.6*

Like the game. Frustrated a bit by the slow w speed of the letters dropping.

### 5/5 — The old version was better

*2019-01-15, version 2.0.6*

I don’t like this new version.  It is less responsive to my finger movements and is generally less fun to play.  I’m thinking of trashing the app.

### 5/5 — What has happened?

*2019-01-09, version 2.0.6*

This game has suddenly become rubbish. Why the graphics have become so terrible who knows? Until recently it was my go to game - I have now stopped playing. It is awful!

AK

### 5/5 — TORRENTIAL

*2017-09-15, version 1.0.24*

This is the best game that I have ever played in my life!!! The soundtrack and voices are the best I've ever heard.
