When I started there were no ads. I could even see an ad between games, but every move? I’m done! ### 4/5 — Ruined *2026-08-17, version 1.338* What have you guys done to this game!! I used to sit and relax whilst playing this game now I have the constant fight throughout the Game to get off yet another add and return to play my next turn which is very frustrating I dont mind after each game but the increase in ads spoils enjoyment GET A GRIP GUYS!! ### 2/5 — Feels bad to play *2026-08-17, version 1.338* I liked WordWars so I thought I’d give this one a shot. This unfortunately just feels very unsatisfying to play matches, coming down to the fact that you will constantly be one or two letters short of perfectly filling a line (especially the longest letter word line) and are just at the mercy of shuffle to give you some good letters to work with… which typically it only makes it worse. I do not feel clever even if I do luck into good letters because I feel like I had to rely on random chance to get there, so it’s still not that satisfying. There is a modicum of strategy in which lane to go for, but it still feels too limiting when trying to fill the longest letter word lines. ### 3/5 — Letter won't move to rack. So frustraring *2026-08-14, version 1.338* Please fix ### 3/5 — KEEPS FREEZING *2026-08-10, version 1.338* I play every day for about an hour and in the last month, the game keeps freezing, maybe four or 56 times in an hour. I have to close it and then start it again. It doesn’t even help to close all the other apps on my iPhone. This is getting really old. ### 3/5 — Glitchy and too many ads *2026-08-09, version 1.338* Don’t get me wrong — this game is fun. The graphics and sound effects are superb. There are three fatal flaws, however. 1.) The barrage of interrupting ads is horrendous. 2.) When ads run, the other player takes a turn and you cannot see their move. You can hear it. You can go back and see what they did, but that’s annoying. 3.) Worst of all and probably related, the app often shuts off in the middle of play or often right as you’re winning a round/match. The developers REALLY need to fix these glitches and cut back on ad interruptions. I’d play more and spend money on supplements helps, if the game were clean. ### 4/5 — Best word game but… *2026-08-08, version 1.338* I’m about to delete it again as it is freezing up again which is very frustrating. I’ve been playing this game a long time but it’s only been in the last few weeks that it freezes even though the app is up to date. It won’t shuffle, add letters, take away letters, nothing! Please fix this or I’ll have to find another best word game. ### 3/5 — Sluggish game - is not working at all today *2026-08-06, version 1.338* I like the game, but some of the games will not work at all. ### 3/5 — Stalls *2026-08-06, version 1.338* The game freezes and you cannot move, update, or play sometimes for 24-48 hours. Disappointing ### 2/5 — Fun but too many glitches *2026-08-01, version 1.338* I do like this game but it is continuously freezing up to the point I need to restart app several times (during each turn). The commercials are outrageously LONG some over 2 minutes. This makes the game suck ### 2/5 — Ad free???? *2026-07-31, version 1.338* I would have given 5 stars once I played a while with constant ads. I finally decided to give in today and pay the “sale” price of $7.99 to be AD FREE for one year. I just paid that and resumed playing. Still getting ads after every level. THIS IS NOT AD FREE. I want to be refunded since this was deceptive and I just paid this less than a half hour ago. ### 4/5 — Fix this *2026-07-30, version 1.338* There’s one thing that really bothers me about this game it freezes a LOT ### 3/5 — Word daily showdown access *2026-07-29, version 1.338* I have enjoyed this game but recently the IQ game has included 5 words score at 150 or more when I think it used to be 100. It was quite motivational before but now unless you watch the adverts to gain higher scores you can’t complete. Very disappointing. Not such a good have now ### 5/5 — Wonderful game *2026-07-22, version 1.338* You might think it’s simple at first but it is really fun 🤩 ### 2/5 — To many interruptions *2026-07-22, version 1.338* I love this game!!! But the long, and frequent adds are very intrusive. I’m finding myself annoyed, when I should be enjoying a game in my spare time. ### 5/5 — Game *2026-07-20, version 1.338* Great game ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — What’s happening? *2026-08-25, version 1.344* The app is freezing & throwing me out. I’m using the up to date iOS for my iPad. I’ve offloaded the app then downloaded it & still no good. The “ support” option in the app is not working. I paid to get adverts removed & purchased in app credits so I don’t know if I uninstall & then reinstall if I will lose these? Help please? ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-08-09, version 1.338* It would be a fun game but it is nothing more than a bunch of ads. There’s ads at the beginning of a game. There’s ads in the middle of a round. There’s ads across the top of a level. This goes way above keeping the game “free.” This is nothing more than a money grab. Don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — Game adverts freezes a lot *2026-08-07, version 1.338* I like the game although not real opponents. Main issue is that the many adverts freeze too often….so you have to abandon play. Not great! Have sent issue to contact but so far…no improvement ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-07-26, version 1.338* I used to love this game, but suddenly, it’s been taken over with ads. Too bad, I loved this game. ### 1/5 — Update needed *2026-07-16, version 1.336* Since the last update this app freezes up constantly. You have to exit and reboot each time to continue play. I love playing the game but it is very frustrating right now. When you click on app support, it doesn’t give Word Roll as a choice for help in the games. I’m not sure where to turn to get it resolved. I have deleted and reinstalled several times and cleared my cache. Any help and suggestions is appreciated. ### 1/5 — No way to Play *2026-07-15, version 1.336* The app is just a continuous AD, no option to play after the first play. Ridiculous that this is even called a game. ### 1/5 — Freeze and Glitch *2026-07-11, version 1.336* I had to delete the app. No assist or response from the developer. Glitching Freezing while in game mode. Over abundant of ads on top of ads without rewards. A true mismanaged problem ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing *2026-07-05, version 1.336* It keeps crashing with no easy way to get it fixed. ### 1/5 — Unhappy with Ap *2026-07-04, version 1.336* I got the app a couple days ago, I enjoyed it but the ads were overwhelming so I paid the 9.99 to be add free and I am still receiving adds. I am very unhappy with the fact I’m still getting ads. ### 1/5 — Freezing and Ads *2026-07-03, version 1.336* Needs major attention. Game does nothing but freezing and closing. But seriously developer needs to monitor the ads. Way toooo long and toooo many ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-08-25, version 1.344* Love this game ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-08-24, version 1.344* Funner ### 5/5 — Word Roll *2026-08-20, version 1.338* Very stimulating, mental game for 72 year old ### 5/5 — English? *2026-08-20, version 1.338* I would like this game better if I could set it to English words only. ### 5/5 — Staying sharp *2026-08-08, version 1.338* I really enjoy playing Word Roll , it’s fun trying to come up with random words keeps the mind sharp. ### 5/5 — Frozen *2026-08-06, version 1.338* Why does my game keep freezing up? ### 5/5 — Word Fun *2026-08-03, version 1.338* One on one competition ### 5/5 — Word roll *2026-07-28, version 1.338* I just love this game it is so fun and addictive it is very good game ### 5/5 — The Chaos Behaves Fun! *2026-07-28, version 1.338* Word Roll is a whole little hurricane of letters spinning around like they’re trying to hide their intentions, but I just sit pretty and snap them into place with that slow‑smile Southern confidence — the kind that looks soft but rearranges the whole board like a quiet variable shift; the game thinks it’s unpredictable, but every roll feels like it’s secretly following a pattern only a sharp mind would notice, and I glide through it like a woman who knows the math behind the magic without ever needing to say it out loud, turning chaos into charm and winning with a wink. ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-07-26, version 1.338* Love word games and am impressed with the game. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
