I have to close the app and re open to do a level, it’s frustrating. Fix this or I trash the app ### 3/5 — Word Free Time *2024-10-21* I enjoy playing this game because it is very verbally challenging. I find that it can be difficult to achieve certain levels in the game when the weekly challenge comes around to play. The one thing that bothers me is that some people might be using word scramblers which enable them to achieve ridiculously high scores. I personally don’t think that it is fair for people who do that. Their win is not honest or fair to the people who play this game honestly and in a fair manner. Sincerely, an honest player. ### 2/5 — Watch out for unfair trick word puzzles! *2024-09-16* I play this everyday, but recently I ran into a level & the clue phrase was “talk Turkey” which means plain talk. It took like 400 points to get it filled in. When I finally solved it, I took a screen shot of it and tried looking up the words in the dictionary. Only two words out of 6 were real words! The rest was jibberish. I don’t know who thought this up but it’s totally unfair and should be removed. ### 2/5 — Watch out for unfair trick word puzzles! *2024-08-16* I play this everyday, but recently I ran into a level & the clue phrase was “talk Turkey” which means plain talk.

The subjects are excellent and my vocabulary improves when I play this game. The graphics and colorful and fun to observe. Honestly, thank you for making it for people to play. It improves my daily activities and I am grateful. ### 2/5 — Review *2024-04-09, version 3.8.0* This is a really fun game and I love it. BUT there is an advertisement after EVERY. time you play a level. LONG advertisements. I’m disappointed that I have to delete it. Not worth sitting through all the ads. ### 2/5 — Word Free Time *2024-03-23, version 3.8.0* Just like all the other games!!! It will quickly bore you because of all the Ads . . . ### 5/5 — Great Game *2024-02-22, version 3.8.0* Loved the interesting questions ### 5/5 — Word Free *2024-02-17, version 3.8.0* First time to play! Like it but a little too easy, guess it will get harder as I play. ### 5/5 — Rate *2024-02-11, version 3.8.0* My favorite game ❤️ ### 5/5 — Faith *2024-02-08, version 3.8.0* I’m enjoying this game coz it relaxes me and I feel so good. Thanks so much 🙏🥰❤️ ### 5/5 — Word search *2024-01-26, version 3.8.0* Nice game So far Bye Salima Punja ### 5/5 — Good *2024-01-15, version 3.8.0* Good ### 5/5 — Way too easy *2023-12-11, version 3.8.0* Although I would recommend this to people who don’t know how to spell because English is their second language, or third or fourth language. And there are plenty of people like that. This would’ve been a good game for ESL classes for vocabulary building, and Spelling. ### 5/5 — Review *2023-09-19, version 3.8.0* Very enjoyable and challenging! ### 3/5 — Good word game but.. *2023-09-14, version 3.8.0* The ridiculous amount of ads you have to put up with just to play one round is a real turn off. Disappointed. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Lost! *2025-02-24, version 3.8.5* I loved this game and played it daily until all my progress was lost today! ### 1/5 — Rigged *2024-05-27, version 3.8.0* I’ve had this game since October of 2020. I loved it for a really long time. I put up with the ads because I realize that a free game has to make money through ads to remain free. I liked it so much that I downloaded it to another device and purposely kept them separately to play and even used a different user name. Later on it dawned on me that my first place score on one of my devices was the exact same score as the person who was ahead of me on the other device. Not only that, my opponent’s second place score on the device I was winning on was exactly the same as my second place score that I was in second place on. I have pictures to prove it. Then the ads increased a lot more to the point that irritated me. I’m hard to irritate over ads because they do need them to keep the app free. I finally got fed up and started playing different word games that I’d had for a long time too but didn’t realize that competing on them was more fun anyway. I’ve tried it again a few times lately. It seems the ads have gotten even worse. It doesn’t really matter. I won’t play a game that’s rigged. I’m dumping it off both of my devices and making space for another game that seems more honest. I’d have given this game a ten star rating long ago, but feeling like it was rigged destroyed any faith I had in the game. I’m done. ### 1/5 — Too easy, too many adverts, *2024-02-25, version 3.8.0* Each level takes 10 seconds, then you have to sit though a 30 second advertisement. Sorry, deleted. ### 1/5 — Un paquet d’annonces *2023-09-12, version 3.8.0* Comme d’habitude, une tonne d’annonces. Des annonces à chaque tableau, c’est plus long de regarder les annonces que jouer. Installer et désinstaller 5 minutes plus tard. ### 1/5 — Not Worth It!! *2023-06-27, version 3.6.1* Way too many ads; way too slow!! Don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — Glitches *2023-06-12, version 3.6.1* Game was fun.. but the weekend event glitches out and never gives an award, contacted game developer and they never responded. ### 1/5 — Another ad player *2023-04-02, version 3.6.1* I’m tired of mobile “games” using fake reviews to boost their ratings. No honest review would leave out the fact that this app is 95% ad player, and 10% game. Thanks for wasting my time. ### 1/5 — Frustrating *2021-11-28, version 3.4.1* Adds points when you spin the takes them off when you are back to solving another puzzle, after watching boring videos. ### 1/5 — Yet another game based on false advertising *2021-02-15, version 3.2.6* This is the third game I’ve downloaded today, that turned out to be nothing like what was advertised in another game. I specifically chose to download it based on the gameplay that I saw in the short video, yet they could not be different. What is it with these Chinese developers that do not understand FALSE ADVERTISING. Not to mention the piss poor English instructions that are used. It doesn’t cost much to hire an interpreter if English is not your first language. After all the developer is making money off English speakers, so why not give them a decent game. And don’t get me started on the UI/UX! The game starts out with some supposed hints, and the screen is grayed out, supposedly waiting for use input, but there is no feedback. Then later on the game hijacks the experience by forcing the player to press buttons they don’t wish to press. Obviously this is just a money making scam. ### 1/5 — Ads *2021-02-13, version 3.2.6* I brought coins and it said if you purchase anything they remove ads and I’m still getting them after every level I complete complete lies ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — World free games. *2025-02-08, version 3.8.5* AWSOME for mind sharpener ### 5/5 — Fun game *2024-06-06, version 3.8.0* Love it! ### 5/5 — Exciting *2024-05-26, version 3.8.0* Fun ### 5/5 — Word game *2024-05-24, version 3.8.0* Very interesting & challanging ### 5/5 — Fun game *2024-04-29, version 3.8.0* This is a fun little game and I would recommend it to anyone who likes word games. ### 5/5 — Game *2024-04-13, version 3.8.0* Fun and interesting game for me and I love it but it is a little bit to easy. ### 5/5 — Question *2024-04-11, version 3.8.0* Curious how players start a tournament at noon on Friday and with in an hour their scores are high, am I missing out on something besides doing the Challenge on Wednesday to get free spins? ### 5/5 — Cici *2024-04-02, version 3.8.0* I love this game because it teaches me how to ### 5/5 — Game *2024-03-11, version 3.8.0* Awesome game ### 5/5 — Fun word games to play *2024-02-22, version 3.8.0* I really enjoy this Game because I also like playing other word games/Word searches so this is a fun game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
