You can click each word and it takes you to Wikipedia type sites and some words from other languages/cultures and some words that have not been used for decades. Ads after every level and to get hints or letters revealed. ### 3/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-05, version 4.60.10* Fun game. I enjoy playing this game but there way too many ads. It gets old waiting for them to play. ### 4/5 — “No ads?” *2026-07-27, version 4.60.9* You said no ads but I am seeing ads between games frustrated!!!! ### 4/5 — So many commercials *2026-07-21, version 4.58.6* Makes this not fun. Too many. Like almost every time you finish a board. Then it will give you two in a row and then Commercial. I got it that I am not paying, but I also don’t want to keep playing if all I am seeing are the same commercials all the time. ### 5/5 — Download this!!! *2026-07-04, version 4.58.6* Great game!!! ### 5/5 — Good game *2026-07-03, version 4.58.6* Nice relaxed game, easy to play ### 5/5 — Annoyed *2026-07-01, version 4.58.6* Why so many ads and 14.99 to turn them off is just ridiculous ### 4/5 — Good Word Game *2026-06-23, version 4.57.10* Starts off easy then gets harder & better. ### 2/5 — Too many ads *2026-06-20, version 4.57.10* In the beginning, it was ok but then it started to play an ad every time you completed a level so it got annoying really fast. I wouldn’t mind if it played an ad like every 5 levels or something like that, not every level ### 5/5 — Fun however you spell it out *2026-06-16, version 4.56.4* This game is fun and entertaining improves spelling ### 5/5 — fun word game *2026-06-12, version 4.56.4* Fun, entertaining game to kill time. Keeps your brain sharp!! ### 5/5 — This game is actually fun and easy *2026-06-09, version 4.56.4* This game is very addicting and needed if you need sometime to play when you want to relax otherwise then that it’s a fun game to download. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Annoying, repetitive and boring *2026-08-08, version 4.60.10* Ads after every game, took me an hour just to get through 20 levels, keep in mind that the levels are within levels, so the 20 levels contributed less than 1/4th. The graphics and art style are purely AI, Words are repeated over and over again and the extra words are ignored. Boring AI slop, Unbelievable amount of ads levels within levels within levels, unrewarding waste of time ### 1/5 — Kids & Senior Friendly; Annoying Ads Start ~12/15 Italy *2026-08-02, version 4.60.10* I’m only playing for a bonus in a play for cash app & i honestly don’t think I’ll make it because it took way too long to complete the kids Italy with 15 “levels” & someone said it jumps to 30+. If this is anything like others from these devs I’m sure the ads will get worst-why click X and skip/fast forward multiple times on multiple screens and it does not close or skip but open another ad - dev intentional malicious behavior. The game starts off way slow with 2-3 words that all are 2-3 letters in length🙄 (realizing it says 4yo+) and about lvl 11/15 first country finally 3-4 letter words, combined With the ads it’s dragging it out making it not challenging nor fun. ### 1/5 — Ad crazy *2026-07-15, version 4.58.6* Soooo many LONG ads and $12 to skip them. Ridiculous. Play two rounds, watch a 1 minute ad. No thanks. ### 1/5 — WiFi only *2026-06-22, version 4.57.10* Can't play unless I'm on WiFi. Can't contact support because you can't get past the internet connection message. Service is perfect and it has nothing to do with events when I can't even get to the home page. Waste of time. ### 1/5 — Another Malpa game that says no internet *2026-06-07, version 4.56.4* Just like Fillwords by Malpa, this game continues to say no internet access. It ridiculous and definitely has turned me away from anything with their name attached. ### 1/5 — Can’t Even Play *2026-06-03, version 4.55.13* So I like the game, but I can’t play it unless I’m on WiFi. I don’t mean that I’m trying to play it “offline” either. I mean I can have perfect cell service (I have to to write this review), and the app tells me it has no connection to the internet. The ONLY way I can play this game is if I’m specifically on WiFi. And that’s just unreasonable. ### 1/5 — Very bad *2026-05-25, version 4.54.12* Impossible to play, adds after every level. And to turn it off u gotta pay 12$ ### 1/5 — Annoying *2026-05-20, version 4.54.12* Only works on WiFi ### 1/5 — Not a fan *2026-05-09, version 4.53.26* Why can’t I see the map while I am playing. And the levels start at 5 or 10 now they are 30 or 40. Only playing because of the reward site it’s listed on. ### 1/5 — Ads ruin it *2026-04-20, version 4.53.19* Game’s decent but you get an ad after every single level. No I will not be paying to get them removed. Used to be games would have an ad after every 2-5 levels, this is becoming unbearable. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Супер! *2026-08-16, version 4.60.10* Лучшая игра!!! ### 5/5 — Super Easy!! *2026-08-05, version 4.60.10* Looking forward to figure out Bigger Words soon but I'm still getting paid to play so it's a Win Win!! :) ### 5/5 — Word pizza *2026-08-03, version 4.60.10* It’s a little slow to start off with once a game and the words get challenging. It gets exciting. Keep your mind sharp. ### 5/5 — Love *2026-07-31, version 4.60.10* I absolutely love this word game! It’s definitely one of my favorites ### 5/5 — Relaxing *2026-07-28, version 4.60.9* I love word finds.
