### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-07-05, version 1.11*

Good fun and quite challenging. No silly words you’ve never heard of. Inexpensive to go add free. I would highly recommend for seniors like me.

Great game, ads are not bad, good overall!

### 1/5 — Screen

Why can’t I turn the screen   Hard to use

### 5/5 — Excellent game.

Long term users would I’m sure benefit from an ongoing average guess score to motivate them on keeping the scoring low

### 3/5 — Ok

*2025-12-12, version 1.11*

It needs to be more interesting

### 3/5 — More letters

The game is good but it needs more letters for more

### 5/5 — Good game

### 2/5 — This

*2025-03-30, version 1.9.2*

Bcc

### 4/5 — Why ads

*2024-11-28, version 1.4.1*

I love the game but why ad for 30-60 seconds?

### 1/5 — Awful

*2024-11-26, version 1.4.1*

Got to plat 1 game and then thrown into a series of Ada for mahjong that you can’t exit out of. Nowhere does it offer a paid version. Absolute waste of time. Deleting it.
