You get to pick which cash out method you want. I chose cash app. I plug in my cash tag and started playing. There is loads of ads. I had to watch exactly 30 ads to be able to cash out $300. It is not currently pending for me it says it’ll take 2 days, 23hours, 54minutes and 19 seconds. So imma guess by Friday I should get the money.. when I do I’ll update it to a 5 star. Also there’s a capsule machine too to be able to win some stuff like a iPhone or MacBook bunch of other stuff. You just need like lots of puzzle points to be able to get the prize I think. I don’t know y we since I haven’t been able to reached the amount to be able to do so. But other than that if you just like doing word puzzles this is for you. ### 3/5 — Won’t load now that I’m at 97%+ on item rewards *2023-09-20* Several “ways” to win rewards. Pending literally thousands in a 6000+ que for cash. At probably a month now and still 1500+ away. Decided to watch all the adds and collect the balls to get prizes. At 97%+ on all of them and was unable to open anymore balls. This morning when I figured I’d be able to open more the next day, nope. App crashes on loading and can’t access it anymore. I like these word games which is why I’ve been playing it but, this is beyond heavy with ads and don’t seem to ever get rewarded like all of these apps-all are scams. Play for fun but don’t expect to ever get anything. ### 2/5 — Still waiting on my payouts *2023-09-15* I have join this game cuz I love guess words. Now I have reached level 235 and still have not seen any of the payouts I’m supposed to receive. I don’t mind the 30 ads to but you do have wait 24 hours before the 30 ads come up and then you have to wait in line to get paid out. I’m in the 2,200 queue in line for my money to be paid out to me and it’s feel like I would never see that the money. It’s supposed to refresh every minute but it’s been 4 weeks and I’m still in the 2,000 Do want to say they scammed me just to watch the ads. Other then that I like the puzzles just would like to see more progress on the payments cuz I’m owed a lot of money for playing this game. I’m a mother of 3 and can really use all that money right now. They let you to believe that you can instantly get ur money but that’s not true at all. They put at a 6000 queue line so we will never see those payouts. For as much commercial there is there should be some consideration for all players because for every commercial you watch they are getting their money so why can’t we. It’s such a shame they scam you out of the money you play for. There should be a law that will make these companies pay out to their players. Unfortunately I’m going to delete the game even after reaching level 235 cuz this is a scam just like every other game. Someone please let me if any of you got your payments. ### 4/5 — What’s said about this App is FAKE!!!!! *2023-09-04* It says “you can cash out INSTANTLY “ and this is not true. As you play there are many adds in order to get the reward money, then when you reach a certain amount and want to cash out, you gotta and it’s a must to watch 30! ADS, yes 30! Then after that you fall in a queue of 6000+ and all those 6 thousand people are waiting to cash out, the numbers change everyday, and when it’s your turn on the queue, you gotta go though all this adds and downloading games or answer questions like “Are you a homeowner, donyiu use cash app, and it’s a long list of questions & apps they want you to download. This is upsetting. All those app video they show before you download this app show people at the store downloading right away, people throwing money like whatever and say they got $50,000 and it’s not true. This app or any other similar app, they lie! ### 3/5 — Tempting App to win $ (they say…) *2023-08-28* First observation is that the game is a word game. It’s fun and it’s educational. But I’m sure we all came here thinking that we could get some use of money. This is just me testing out if we could get a little bit of money on this app where there’s countless ads saying we can earn if we download and play. I’m very skeptical and never could believe anyone is able to make money from playing games without giving first. I mean, that’s a lot to ask from a game to give free moneys where there’s billions of people playing. In this games, you gotta know. There is a threshold at the beginning asking to get to $300 to withdraw. But this isn’t IMMEDIATELY. To good to be true. There is no need to deposit. Which is GREAT! But, you have to wait for a countdown and THEN watch 30 ads. 😩 Then, wait in line since there is thousand of others in line as they say. At this point, it’s all about patience in this game. But I’m still not sure if I can say truly you will get money. I feel like I personally need to wait months. But it is what it is. Just want to test this out. ### 2/5 — False advertisement *2023-08-26* I think it’s time for all of us to file a class action lawsuit against these games that claim to pay out money. Yes it fun but we also expect to be paid and not have to wait and never receive. No ADs is a joke! That’s all this game is ADS. We the people can put a stop to this because they should not lie about it. Some people just enjoy the games with an ad after every game but this is an under statement and after reading all these reviews to find out that I’m ever going to get the money is a high disappointment. Well I’m done until I see money on my PayPal because it doesn’t take a week to payout. Well back to my fun Monopoly they don’t promise lies. But to the people who help them create these fake and fraudulent advertisements, you should be ashamed and embarrassed and I hope they paying you well for selling your SOUL to the devil. ### 3/5 — Meh *2023-08-25* The game is fun, however you have to have ad patience. I was totally expecting a ton of ads, as it seems like the only way they could actually pay out. I think the scam is most people will not wait as long as the creators of this app make you wait. I’m have been in a holding pattern for about 2 weeks now. After I hit the mark to cash out I had to wait a couple days to verify and then watch like 3 ads (I do not really remember) and then dropped into a queue at number four thousand something. I am going to keep waiting, as I am curious if this thing will ever actually pay out or if it the scam I thought it was….lining the creator’s pocket with every ad watched without any real attempt to payout. I will update! ### 2/5 — Still waiting on my payouts *2023-08-23* I have join this game cuz I love guess words. Now I have reached level 113 and still have not seen any of the payouts I’m supposed to receive. I don’t mind the 30 ads to but u do have wait 24 hours before the 30 ads come up and then you have to wait in line to get paid out. I’m in the 4,000 in line for my money to paid out to me and it’s feel like I would never see that the money. It’s supposed to refresh every minute but it’s been 4 days and I’m still in the 4,000. Don’t want to say they scammed me but it does feel like a scam just to get u to watch the ads. Other then that I like the puzzles just would like to see more progress on the pay’s cuz I’m owed a lot of money for playing this game. I’m a mother of 3 and can really use all that money right now. ### 4/5 — Didn’t receive funds *2023-08-22* I watched the ads, matched the needed amount of words, and it said my funds would be transferred to my PayPal account in 2 days. Then after the 2 days it said 19 hours. After the 19 hours I checked my PayPal account and saw nothing. When I returned to the app, there was nothing regarding the 2 withdrawals I had made - they had just disappeared as if they were never there My hopes were not too high but after all that time, it was disappointing to see that there wasn’t even an error message sent, but just removed traces of the supposed withdrawal attempt ### 1/5 — Do Better! *2023-08-21* I am a little confused by your system of winnings. I think it’s a scam. I’m really not happy about this! Your game states after (X amount of time 1-2 days the funds will be transferred into my PayPal account) then it says watch 30 ads to transfer into your account (after already watching 30 ads ro “win” the funds.) THEN Once you reach that point … I’m to watch 30 more ads for It to be put into my PayPal account? Once done w/THAT; then it states that I’m #4,000 + in line to receive my winnings. How is that? Do you even plan on issuing me my winnings EVER? It’s been over 2 weeks & I’ve barely made it down to the #3000. I don’t believe you are & I think this is terrible! Why promise one thing & do another? ### 2/5 — VERY DISAPPOINTED *2023-08-21* The game started off great. Soon enough I accumulated over $270. I clicked to cash out instantly. It then had me wait an extended period of time or watch 30 Ads. I watched the thirty ads and was then told I would receive my claim in three days. The three days passed and then I was told I was in a queue behind 5,100 people. I was frustrated and checked later to find that I had 5,600 people before me. I am beyond frustrated! I understand that you are playing a game at the chance to earn money but it seems like everywhere I turn there’s a reason why my money can’t be claimed. I think I might delete this game. I’m very disappointed. Update: I still have over 2,400 people ahead of me. This game is ridiculous and a scam. Don’t play if you actually need the money. It’s false advertising and frankly a waste of time. Deleting immediately! ### 3/5 — Basically paying you to watch ads *2023-08-19* I’ve been playing this for about a month and still haven’t received any money into my PayPal account. The disclosure says it will take 3-15 business days. It’s been way longer than that and I’m still waiting. You can “cash out” at any time, but you won’t get the full amount until you reach progressively higher levels(300, 500, 1,000, 2,000). The puzzles are also very repetitive, and you might even get the same one twice in a row. I’m still playing, waiting to see if I’ll ever get any money in my PayPal account. ### 1/5 — False advertisement *2023-08-19* Pretty disappointed in an emergency situation right now and played this game cuz it had 4 stars definitely should have looked at more than 1 review cuz now I just wasted my time and about 90% of these reviews are like 1 and 2 stars so not understanding how this has 4 stars they tell you instant cash out but when you get to 300 they make you watch 30 ad’s that they play every 5 seconds and then when you watch the ad’s they tell you that you have to wait 3 days and from the look of some of these reviews after those three days they’re gonna put you in some queue and say thousands of ppl are ahead of you I kept saying this is too good to be true I should have listened ### 4/5 — Adds, wait, money *2023-08-16* You can make $300 in an hour playing this game. You do not have to put any money in. I like that part. However, there are loads of ads that you have to watch and when you go to cash out your $300 it is not instant. you have to watch another 30 ads, and then you have to wait three days. After waiting three days you were put into a queue and you have to wait to you get to the front of that in order to get your money. Having said that, I have played every day for four days and will now be getting money consistently every day. So it’s good if you don’t mind watching the add and getting money for nothing but watching ads. ### 1/5 — Game is ok *2023-08-16* I should have realized when I looked this and downloaded it that the developer was from Asia. I can’t read with the characters are so not sure but I know it’s Asian anyway the ones that come from Asia are like ordering clothes online that come from China order them 3 to 5 sizes bigger than what you normally wear. Otherwise you’re not gonna be able to get in the thing I should have realized that this game was maybe fun but definitely fake as far as what the promises were it’s all adds more than the game you play it that hats are just interrupting the game at all times so that’s a fault coming another false claim is the money you’re never ever going to get that money anyway beware of Asian developers of these games ### 4/5 — Not sure yet!! *2023-08-12* I really like the game, you build up money quickly. But the ads are insane, it’s says 3 days processing prior to finds being deposited. I’m already at my fourth deposit in 4 days. I’m just waiting to find out if this is real money or just points? If anyone knows this answer, please let me know. I don’t want to waste my time. The first deposit is supposed to be in 2d 22 hours, The count down is now at 1D 12 hours. I guess I’ll find out for sure by the first of the week. ### 1/5 — Death by ads *2023-08-10* I just started playing this morning. Took a couple of hours and over 100 ads to get to my first $300 payout. Judging from what others have said, I’m not feeling too optimistic. It will give you $30-$40 per level (which a brain dead person could easily win) and then the last $100-$150 they give you 2 cents per level. There is an ad mid-game, 2 ads if you click the floating button to “win” more money, followed by another ad when you complete the level. Some ads can be skipped after a few seconds, most are 40-45 seconds long and all of them automatically open up the App Store. Unbelievably annoying game, not at all challenging and definitely not worth the time. ### 3/5 — False advertising *2023-08-10* The game is fun and easy but it’s not instant cash out. I was able to win the $300 you have to win before cash out fairly quick but when you hit cash out you have to watch 30 ads just to start the process after that you have to wait a few days for them to check, then it told me I had 5800 people ahead of me so I had to wait again that many minutes, which is about another 3 days. Still waiting to see if I actually get paid. Also the raffle machine stopped working when I was 1 win away from winning any of the prizes. I emailed but have not got a response ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — TOTAL WASTE OF TIME *2023-10-25* Glad I didn’t put any money into this or I’d be really angry. This whole thing is an utter lie. This app is FULL of ads, one after the other, and after you accumulate your cash prizes, you have to watch 30 MORE adds back to back just to be told your requests is being processed. My first payment has been “processing” over 10 days now and say it will be ANOTHER 2 days for payment, but yesterday it said 1day for payment. I’ve got this game quarantined so I won’t play it anymore, and just waiting to see if I get any money at all. I wish there were a place to report these game scams. I tried Solitaire Clash and put in $5 to start. I’m up to $26 now. I’ve earned a few bucks but the app is telling me $9 is Bonus cash, which can not be withdrawn, then there is a $3 fee and at cash out even your Bonus dollars are taken away. SCAM. SCAM. SCAM. ### 1/5 — TOTAL WASTE OF TIME *2023-10-22* Glad I didn’t put any money into this or I’d be really angry. This whole thing is an utter lie.

SCAM. ### 1/5 — Scam Unfortunately *2023-10-19* I downloaded this game about 3-4 months ago to see how fast I would “win money” You get cash pretty fast and I ended up reaching the $300 cash out instantly threshold, then was told I had to watch 30 ads to get the money. I watched all the ads only to be met up with a waiting list with 6000+ people ahead. So with all of these extra steps I wasn’t informed of previously, I just knew it wasn’t going to happen. It’s like they stalled to tell you “Um yeah so we don’t actually have money to give you, we just wanted you to watch our ads so we can get paid”. Anywho, I had just hit the 1999 mark on the waiting list only to be told that there was no network. I restarted the app and it didn’t change at all. So yeah don’t play these type of games for money, it’s definitely a waste of time. ### 1/5 — Game is ok *2023-10-14* I should have realized when I looked this and downloaded it that the developer was from Asia. I can’t read with the characters are so not sure but I know it’s Asian anyway the ones that come from Asia are like ordering clothes online that come from China order them 3 to 5 sizes bigger than what you normally wear. Otherwise you’re not gonna be able to get in the thing I should have realized that this game was maybe fun but definitely fake as far as what the promises were it’s all adds more than the game you play it that hats are just interrupting the game at all times so that’s a fault coming another false claim is the money you’re never ever going to get that money anyway beware of Asian developers of these games These ads are called bait and switch and it’s a felony here in the US that’s why it’s only Chinese or Korean or whatever Asian company it is that develops these games can get away with it because they’re not in America where it’s illegal to do a bait and switch advertising ### 1/5 — WONT LET YOU CASHOUT!! *2023-10-13* Not sure if it’s a glitch but I reached 300$ pretty quickly and when I tried to cashout to my PayPal I get the message “No Network” even though my cellphone service is perfectly fine and I am also on wifi. I’ve watched a TON of ads literally like one every 30-46seconds to get the bonus cash to reach my goal faster and all I’m getting is no network and it won’t let me cashout. Feels like a scam. I sent NUMEROUS emails through the game and outside of it. Nothing has happened within the 4 days I’ve sent emails!! Update: it finally let me tap cashout but it only gives half of what I got even when I got up to 1000$. It says you have to wait 2 DAYS as it does a countdown. Once the countdown is over it will say “payment processing” and you’re in a queue and it states that it goes down every minute. Brooooo it’s a WHOLE THREE MORE DAYS I GOTTA WAIT!!! ### 1/5 — SCAM ALERT!!! *2023-09-25* ******SCAM ALERT****** I have been playing this game for over a week. I am still tracking my first $300 prize that I won in just a few hours the first day. You barely get to play the game before an Ad pops up to watch. My first thought was that the payouts are larger because the ads are so frequent and last for at least one minute. Over a week and my first $300 prize is still pending. First it pended and required me to watch 30 more ads. Once I completed those, went into pending status with a clock ticking down 24 hours. Twice that clock reset itself to another 24 hours. After 72 hours elapsed, put the $300 prize in a Recording Queue that said my queue position is 5,772. After 24 hours I am at position 5,133. At this rate will probably take 14 days. I knew this was a scam game when I didn’t get the promised payout the first day. However, have actively played occasionally for a week out of curiosity. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME! The game owner ZHIHAO CAI is getting rich off the ads you watch while you waste your time!!!!! ### 1/5 — I believe this is a scam! *2023-09-10* Due to all reviews that’s saying it’s a scam I believe you! I think all these people that’s saying it worked for them are just bots that works for the people that created this app! Please do not put your cash app or etc information onto this app they could steal your information to put on the dark web! I downloaded this but I had to see the reviews first and almost everybody saying it’s a scam! And it’s also a lie because it says no ads but I went to play the game and it’s ads! I am so glad I read the reviews because I would not wanna waste my time to this fake app! Apple App Store should stop allowing these fake money games on here they are false advertising, lying and scamming and whoever makes these apps should be reported and sued! Do not download! ### 1/5 — Not sure what to believe *2023-08-31* Yes there are a ton of ads, but that honestly doesn’t bother me! The reason I gave only one star it says that the payouts are instantly, but I’ve found that’s not the case after reaching $300 to cash out your given a click that is counting down I think it starts at basically 3 days! It says 2D 24 hours! Then once you get through that countdown then you are given a number that shows how many players are ahead of you! Well it started out over 5000 and that was a week ago and still no where close to being done!! Who knows what’s going to happen after I get to the top with no one in front of me! Will there be some other thing we have to do next! They shouldn’t say you instantly get the money when you cash out! Got on here to read if anyone actually got money or not! ### 1/5 — Ads, ads, ads *2023-08-29* I like word games but this one has you watching ads more than playing. So the ad for the games was a lie. As mentioned by others, there is a $300 threshold to cash out. (The workaround is to wait until the next day and cash out the previous day’s “winnings” at any amount.). After you hit the cash out amount you have to watch 30 ads to even claim the money. Then you get put in a queue that says they process the payouts every 3 minutes (or something similar). I was number 3500. I still at at around 1600 in the queue 3 or 4 weeks later—the queue moved decently for around 48 hours and now it’s moving at around 10 per day max. Also worth noting, the amount that you get for puzzles gets lower after you reach the $250 amount—making it difficult to get to $300. TL/DR Ads, ads, ads, cash out threshold at $300, harder and harder to get to $300. Then 30 ads to cash out. Put in queue to be processed. No money after 3-4 weeks. Unlike the others I say 1 star because I don’t believe that I will ever see any money from this game. I will update if that changes. ### 1/5 — No you will not get a single penny *2023-08-22* It’s been 17 days and no money. Definitely not going to get it either since I have read all the other reviews. The game itself is a time killer. Very easy words. No challenge at all so it’s easy to get to your first $300. But after you try and withdraw it that page will forever say “no network”. Even though I can get online. I can download new games. I am always on Wi-Fi. I have a strong network. It says that as a convenient excuse to not payout what they owe you for watching the 500 ads you have to watch to get to that $300. Can’t email support because the game freezes as you try and send the email. If you click App Support in the App Store it tries to open a page that warns you that the website link will take you to a connection that is not private and is masking spyware. Apple needs to ban this app. It’s definitely a scam and they need to be sued. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Never had to write a bad review this soon *2023-08-24* I’ve downloaded this game like 10 minutes ago already had millions of ads, the game crashed 3 times, and I’m bored of it already. I only rated this a five so people see it. If you’re looking for a useless game that will waste your time, Word Roamer is the game for you. I thought I was being so harsh writing this but now that I think about it, this game has already showed me how terrible it is and I haven’t even had it for long. I’m extremely disappointed. The ads all say “WorD ROamEr HaS ZERo ADs aNd iS ReAlLy ADDicTinG”. Meanwhile the game has an ad everyone 15 seconds. Deleting and never downloading again. ### 5/5 — Stop being unreasonable *2023-08-17* I've noticed several negative reviews and would like to address some of the concerns. For example, there are mentions of a minimum cash out of $300, which understandably requires some processing time. Many users have expressed frustration about the number of ads in the game. However, it's important to recognize that these ads play a crucial role in enabling substantial cash outs. Supporting such payouts for thousands of users necessitates the inclusion of ads to sustain the game's operations. While I understand the frustration, it's essential to maintain a reasonable perspective. Virtually no game exists that allows cashing out without benefiting the developers in some way. Therefore, ads are a necessary component to keep the game operational. ### 5/5 — Hi *2023-08-08* The yyyyyu are the only one that has the same name and they have a very different taste and smell than other brands and I think it’s because of their name but they have the exact opposite of what you get from the other two but they’re different so they don’t taste as similar but I like to have the best taste of the two and I like to make them with the best of both worlds and they have different tastes I love them and they taste good but they taste like a lot more bggcc but they’re both so sweet so it’s just hedging in a little different but they taste better and I love the taste. ### 5/5 — This App is Amazing *2023-08-01* Not only are they truly engaging at times, they also work. You become challenged to be aware of the structure of the game and understand how to meet the criteria. I loved this part!! For those of you complaining about the adds, well how else are they supposed to pay out very generous amounts of money? Gotta put a lil work in too! Much love to the makers of this app for real. They came in clutch for me during some hard times 💪🏾 ### 5/5 — The Mind Game *2023-07-20* I'm new to this game, and I decided to download it and play it to see if things are working out and the quality of the game is better than any other games that I've downloaded! Expect a response back to you, on just how well my outcome have been successfully achieved since I started playing this game, and how my playing went, ### 5/5 — Mind over matter? *2023-06-27* What’s the matter? you may ask. The matter is that I am a 75 year old senior citizen who has noticed that my thinking is a little bit slower and the words escape me in mid-sentance more often than notmal. Games like this are great for making my brain work a little harder and clear out the rust from my poor rusty brain! I love this game. Plus I can make a little money doing it and it passes the time. Thank you very much for this game!!! P.S. It is better than some of the crap on TV! 🥴😊 ### 5/5 — Really Make money in South Carolina *2023-06-20* I love this game but heres my thing……. I been hearing that alot of these games you can actually win real money off of them, but how come in South Carolina it doesn’t work?? I think that should be upgraded for all the games that claim you can make money from them ### 5/5 — Absolute trash *2023-06-07* It’s advertised as no ads. There are way too many ads. Literally every time you click there is a ad. On top of that you will never receive the money they say you will get. The game is just a way to trick you into watching ads to make them money. ### 5/5 — Word roamer *2023-05-17, version 1.1.0* Easy a lot of games are hard understand but this game was super easy to understand becuz there wasn’t a lot to figure out. Much easier yo catch on ### 5/5 — Great *2023-05-17, version 1.1.0* Excellent game and clear graphics --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
