The frequency used to not be so intrusive but now I find it frustrating to play for any length of time. I’d gladly pay for an ad-free version! ### 3/5 — Why is the Hint option now giving found letters?? *2024-06-23, version 1.4.1* Really liked this game until today. Now apparently using the Hint option (where you have to watch 30-60 seconds of ads) just results in random spewing of letters which may include ones already found. Please fix it back such that the only letters offered are ones for which there is a blank spot. Also, why is there no way within the app to contact the developers/ask for assistance? I tried there 1st but since there was no option, had to resort to posting a review here. ### 3/5 — I just don’t like it ps:read whole thing *2024-01-07, version 1.4* I’m saying this to all the mothers that have kids who ask you if they can get this game this game is a very nice game. It is OK and very very very safe for children. It is just what I choose to say about this game and I hope all of you, women and children read this whole thing so they don’t just reply on what the title says. It is just my opinion, and I hope you can understand that. anyway goodbye and God bless everyone I hope the developer of this game will send a reply soon. ### 3/5 — H White *2023-09-07, version 1.4* I would like to see a no adds option ### 4/5 — Daily round *2023-08-14, version 1.4* A daily challenge would be excellent ### 4/5 — Amazing *2023-06-19* This game is a little hard but that’s what makes it fun. ### 5/5 — Fun & thoughtful *2022-09-07, version 1.3* Just had this for a few days and how refreshing to have a game that helps improve mental ability but does not push out unrelated annoying adverts. Getting a tip is so easy and doesn’t interfere with game too much. Really enjoying. ### 5/5 — Fun *2022-08-27, version 1.3* Good to play ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Screen *2026-03-01, version 1.11* Why can’t I turn the screen Hard to use ### 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. ### 1/5 — Review *2024-02-01, version 1.4.1* It is fun but you need to add more easier words and No adds ### 1/5 — No good *2022-07-29, version 1.3* Confusing compared to similar apps ### 2/5 — This *2025-03-30, version 1.9.2* Bcc ### 2/5 — Used to be great, now not so much *2024-03-11, version 1.4.1* I used to love this app and recommend it to others. There would be an ad for a different game every 12 games or so, and I didn’t mind checking out the suggestions. The app is free, after all, and some of the games looked like goofy fun Then they updated the app in early 2024 and the interval between ads became unbearably short. This ruined the app, and pretty much ended my play on it. I’m actually at the App Store now getting an alternative. ### 2/5 — I hate it it is terrible *2024-02-06* I hate it. It is the worst thing on earth. It is so boring. ### 2/5 — Long Ads *2023-11-23, version 1.4* App has BOTH banner ads and LONG video ads you can exit out of for 30 to 60 seconds. Ads are longer than game play. There is no option for an ad-free version. The banner ads at the bottom of screen overlap and obscure the keyboard and the last line where the 5th line of your guess goes. The ads clearly take priority over the app function. Deleted. ### 2/5 — Error *2022-04-12, version 1.3* I got to prize on lady go and had already had a grey on D. Result says word was PRIDE. I guess it can’t be perfect. ### 3/5 — Ok *2025-12-12, version 1.11* It needs to be more interesting ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 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. ### 5/5 — Favorite game *2026-06-20, version 1.11* Great game, ads are not bad, good overall! ### 5/5 — Excellent game. *2025-12-19, version 1.11* Long term users would I’m sure benefit from an ongoing average guess score to motivate them on keeping the scoring low ### 5/5 — Good game *2025-03-31, version 1.9.2* I like the game. I just don’t like the advertisements. ### 5/5 — Guess word *2024-07-07, version 1.4.1* Have changed my review from previous good rating because now I get the most annoying adverts for another game. It goes on for ages and completely puts me off the game. Will try for a little longer and if this continues I will leave the game with a 1 star review which it will deserve!!!!! ### 5/5 — Happy to have this *2024-06-22, version 1.4.1* Super great game. Keeps the brain alives ### 5/5 — Good game *2024-04-06, version 1.4.1* Keeps the mind active ### 5/5 — Excellent egg-cercise *2024-02-23, version 1.4.1* When I have to wait for anything, I find solving one of these word puzzles very gratifying. Good for the “egg”. ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2024-02-14, version 1.4.1* Great game ### 5/5 — Tried and tested *2022-11-02, version 1.4* Does what it says on the box, but all day long! Great fun🙂 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
