Wouldn’t mind if that happened later in the game but you take no more than two seconds to find three words. Then have to watch an ad for ten seconds. Played for 5 minutes. For and a half of those were watching adverts. So deleted. ### 2/5 — Won’t work past level 10 *2019-04-21, version 1.2* Liked the game, but it locked up on level 10 & will not accept any letters. Had just started getting into it when this happened. Tried hints. Turned phone off & on. Tried reverse arrow. Looked for a help button. Nothing. ### 3/5 — Too many *2019-05-27, version 1.2* Adds fir game apps. ### 3/5 — Help *2018-05-21, version 1.2* Great app however as time progresses when I would press hunt the letters would either disappear or start moving all over the board I figured I’d delete it than reinstall install so all my Purchases I had for my hints are gone can you fix this aside from this it’s fun ### 4/5 — New *2020-09-19, version 1.2* Fun game! ### 4/5 — WordBrain clone *2018-05-14, version 1.1* This is a WordBrain clone...with very annoying ads. Good game but...delete. Would reinstall if can (pay to) get rid of ads. ### 5/5 — Game is great...But *2021-03-18, version 1.2* I love the game but there are two problems: 1) when using a hint, the letter does not always appear on the screen because it seems to be blacked out. Sometimes it appears on the screen but in a random spot - not always near the word it is for. In order to get it in the correct spot, I have to back out of the page back to the categories, or sometimes even close the app and reload. 2) the hint bar is so wide across the screen that I find myself touching the hint bar when I don’t want to- thereby wasting the few hints we get. Otherwise it is a very good game- and provides a wonderful mental workout. ### 5/5 — Word Idiot *2020-07-22, version 1.2* Addictive game ### 5/5 — Rate *2019-05-12, version 1.2* Good game so far ### 5/5 — fun *2018-06-11, version 1.2* so much fun ## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Hi *2018-06-11, version 1.2* Just doin this to get a hint ### 5/5 — Simple and fun *2018-05-20, version 1.2* Good for brain ### 5/5 — Great Fun! *2018-05-20, version 1.2* This game is great to play.
