If you want 5 stars (as you do, of course), let’s play up to the first level and see if you really pay me. Fair enough? ### 4/5 — So far good *2024-06-08* We shall see I just started hopefully this pays out because I’ve played so many cash games that were fake and it’s disgusting😡so I’ll see about this one. ### 3/5 — Word Hike *2024-05-12* So this app does not give you any money so far. And when it was time it says there were too many withdrawals to do and said there was over $4000 people in front of me. It is a great game to play but I have not gotten a cent from my money I earned. Now they r saying that you can get like $3000 per day. They have not finished what they were doing with the money they owe me. This is my type of game but no money has reached me even though there were at least two more steps after the money to do to get your cash Good luck!!!! ### 5/5 — Word Hike *2024-04-08* THIS GAME IS VERY WONDERFUL FOR EVERYONE WHO LOVES WORDS. It is good for me to see if I can keep up winning because I often lose later, but it does not mean I stop playing. Go and try it out and earn money at the same time. ### 2/5 — Pirates *2024-04-08* Do NOT download this game. It’s a waste of your time and common sense. I got up to level 25, tried to cash out, it changed the screen and said I had to earn $48 more before cashing out. So they make it almost impossible to withdraw because they stack it up or should I say rack it up higher and higher in order to cash out. So sad that game developers can do this to innocent good people. ### 5/5 — Word hike *2024-04-04* So far so good. I enjoy word games. I’ve only been playing for about 15 minutes & I’m only on level 7. I need to get to level 25 to cash out. I sure hope it’s for real. ### 5/5 — Fun Word Game *2024-04-03* I’m enjoying this new word game. It’s colorful and fun, and this game pays you to play it. I like the fact that I can choose to watch video ads for more earnings ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Game *2024-07-23* Nice word hunt game but have yet to be paid out. I’ve completed 347 levels, numerous challenges, many videos and yet no cash out. The ones Ive cashed out just disappear after I’ve completed the requirements but no money !! I completed the cash out requirement but am now on a waiting list. I started at 850 but now it changed to 4017. If they arent going to pay out, don’t bother playing. Also, way toooooo many commercials ### 1/5 — Ad after Ad after Ad after Ad *2024-07-14* ….and no money paid out, ever. I have since deleted this game and every Unity game I had downloaded. You hardly get a chance to play the game before an ad pops up - you do one thing and get an ad. I got past the level you were to get to to cash out - and then they wanted me to play through level 80? With endless ads and very little hope for any money, I deleted the game. Don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — Liar! Liar! *2024-07-11* Don’t believe the adds you hear. It’s a total scam! Each time you reach a point of cashing out another stipulation is added. I’m being told that I have to watch 30 videos to get the money. Problem with this is that I have to watch at least 20 for the app to count that I have watched 1 video. I will let you know how many videos I actually watch when I get to the next stipulation. We all know that no one will EVER see a dime from this. ### 1/5 — Alice *2024-06-25* This is a scam. It’s a great game but you can’t actually win any money. You win and you have to win so many levels than watch so many videos them do the he challenges. I have yet to see any money in my account. Scam. And now I can’t post this cause I can’t pick a nickname that isn’t used. ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2024-06-19* Started playing this app and it shows every 30-45 seconds of play you are working in on, you are forced to watch an ad unexpectedly. Made level 20 to cash out, and am being told I have to suffer more ads during play to level 80 as a task. I honest doubt I would even get the cash out when I reach that level just so the devs can slave me to rake in more money off forced ads for them. This is just another ripoff game by Unity games and the devs to make money off people via ads. I have tested several of their games and it all falls down to the same tactics to their so called money making games. Fool the players that they can earn money by playing their games whilst forcing the players on a time set to watch ads so the devs can gain money off you & in turn place more tasks to an unattainable goal. The players will never get any funds. ### 1/5 — Can’t get my money *2024-06-06* I loved the game until I have reached past the level 80 that you are suppose to be able to cash out at! I have now reached level 90 and it won’t give me any money it keeps saying reach 80 levels and then you will be able to cash out 100%. It won’t give me a correct email address to send my complaint to for customer service. It’s like this game isn’t even legit! I love word games but hate when I spend the time expecting to get money and then I don’t get anything!!! ### 1/5 — Fun but doesn’t pay *2024-04-13* Got to level 25 and to cash out I have to get to level 80.. add after ads after ads once I hit 80 I’ll come write another review Well days later I’ve reached the 80 mark and then some on level 121 and still can’t collect the money now I have to watch 30 ads to collect but after that I’ll have another task.. Delete the app it’s FAKE Still not paying on another task to complete in order to collect I’m up to level 140 now have collected over five thousand dollars but can not cash out unless I watch ads or complete tasks I’ve completed and then a new one to complete so fake ### 1/5 — Most likely a SCAM *2024-04-06* You should play this game and not expect anything from it. I can guarantee you this game is a scam. I downloaded it today just to see and I immediately went to the instructions and it read word for word the exact same thing as that Plinko game which is a huge scam. never trust a game that can’t spell properly. I wonder if they even do it just to give you a hint that the game is fake. ### 2/5 — Game *2024-06-25* Nice word hunt game but have yet to be paid out. I’ve completed 120 levels, numerous challenges, many videos and yet no cash out. The ones Ive cashed out just disappear after I’ve completed the requirements but no money !! If they arent going to pay out, don’t bother playing. Also, way toooooo many commercials ### 2/5 — Not honest *2024-04-08* If you like spelling then play for fun because I got to level 25 and went to cash out and they ask for your method of payment then turn around and say well go to level 80 to cash out and they call it task 1 so trust that there will be other task , AND WAY TOO MANY ADS!!, they get paid from but you don’t please don’t waste your time!!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fun so far *2024-07-30* I need the money so I hope this is real I have a lot of withdrawals, and what cash app account are you looking for I have been playing for 1 week now still have not cashed out on anything yet. How much longer will it take me to cash out. ### 5/5 — Good game fir spellers *2024-07-13* Makes you keep you on your toes to spell correctly which increase using your brain and keeps it active. ### 5/5 — Love it *2024-07-11* I really do love this game. BUT, where is my money? I was able to checkout with a win, but haven’t seen my money?????? I’ve reached each level and then you keep moving the level goal higher. ### 5/5 — Fun so far *2024-07-10* I need the money so I hope this is real I have a lot of withdrawals, and what cash app account are you looking for ### 5/5 — Word Hike *2024-06-15* It’s a fun game. Words will probably get harder the more levels you reach. I have not received any money yet so I have no idea if they actually pay. ### 5/5 — Fun *2024-05-16* Fun game, hasn't paid off yet, we will see. Was told that Unity Games did not pay off, the game is fun but when I reach the level where it should pay and doesn't, I will delete it ### 5/5 — Skeptical *2024-05-15* Seem to be an ok game. I hope the payoffs are real. There are so many fake ones. Hope this is a good one ### 5/5 — Word Hike *2024-04-14* I downloaded the app today I’m loving it it’s amazing game to play not lot of ads to watch so I’ve got give it 5 star it relaxing to play and very fun game I still loving this game ### 5/5 — money *2024-04-11* Hopefully its as real as it says , i downloaded the game lastnight and im just now playing it . ill keep the rating at a five star until i feel like theres gonna be a scam . ### 5/5 — Really like *2024-04-09* I really like Word Hike. I love the spelling so it’s easy for me. It can get challenging, but it’s a good app. You should really try it and I would recommend it. But I think we should have a choice whether or not to use the tutorial. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
