It's creative, original and engaging. You have to find words in different shapes and sizes, and sometimes you have to rotate the screen or use hints. It's a great challenge and a lot of fun. I highly recommend it! ### 5/5 — Sw *2023-12-13* I don't come back to a lot of games time and time again, but this is a great way for me think a little critically each day. You can pick it up and put it down whenever without losing progress or having to repeat anything. There are ads, but they're minimal and don't interrupt or detract from gameplay. I've even recommended the game to several people. ### 5/5 — S *2023-12-13* Satisfying when you complete each puzzle. The first word needs to be discovered first, otherwise the letters don't align for the remaining words. It's a nice challenge. I personally prefer games where there are many ways to tackle a puzzle and/or create my own solutions. I still give this 5 stars, though. ### 5/5 — 👍👍👍 *2023-12-12, version 1.1.2* So far, the gameplay is fun and challenging, and if you need help and are out of coins to pay for that help, there is more than one way to get coins without paying (watch ads, do surveys, and some other third party mini-game option I didn’t try). That said, purchasing a small stack of coins won't set you back much, and as long as you challenge yourself to think and not use the helpful hints or shuffles etc. very often, you shouldn't be starving for coins much at all. ### 5/5 — I *2023-12-11, version 1.1.2* Love this game! It can get pretty frustrating, but it is rewarding:) ### 5/5 — )))) *2023-12-11* Loving this game. It takes a bit of time to build up coins that go towards paying for hints, but you can build your coins quicker by finding the extra words. It's fun, challenging and I can lose myself in this when I want to escape the world for a while. Highly recommend ### 5/5 — Отзыв *2023-12-10, version 1.1.2* Downloaded this 5 minutes ago and hooked immediately. Easy but still a puzzle very fun to play. Great to play when you only have 30 seconds of downtime, or lots more! ### 5/5 — Tart *2023-12-10, version 1.1.2* Love this game! It is both fun & challenging. But I don't like that you have to pay 50 points every time you need to shuffle the letters. You can earn the points by watching two videos but lately the video option is not working well. I've been receiving a message that says "Video is not available at this time" which can be frustrating as I have to stop playing the game for a while. ### 5/5 — Feel *2023-12-09, version 1.1.1* Love this game, but wish there were more ways to earn credits to buy special tools often needed to advance in game unless you are extremely good at finding the word searches. The offers to earn points are ridiculous or games that I just wouldn't play. I might try some of the game offers to earn credits, probably may even find a few games I like, but you have to play to get to really high levels to earn the offer points so I don't even try. Probably won't play much, just gets to expensive. ### 5/5 — Aina *2023-12-08* I've only played the first 20 levls, but so far, so good. One difference from similar games; you get credit for finding words that aren't the ones you're supposed to be finding. Ads are fairly nonintrusive, with a small crawler at the bottom of the screen and a full page every several levels. There's no lag (so far). One complaint - the description says "holiday update", but there aren't any holiday items showing at all...I guess if that's the only complaint I have, it's a pretty decent game. ### 5/5 — . *2023-12-08, version 1.1.1* Love it. Addictive my best friend gets irritated because he tries to talk to me while I'm playing and I'm like. I'm almost done with this level!"; and will sometimes sneak another one or two in before I respond. It's really easy at first but as you move on to other levels it not only becomes harder but it's a challenge to find which words to find first in order to have the letters fall into the correct order and not have to use your coins. ### 5/5 — Angelina *2023-12-08* Satisfying when you complete each puzzle. The first word needs to be discovered first, otherwise the letters don't align for the remaining words. It's a nice challenge. I personally prefer games where there are many ways to tackle a puzzle and/or create my own solutions. I still give this 5 stars, though. ### 5/5 — Cool *2023-12-08, version 1.1.1* It is fun AND challenging! I'm 52 yrs old so it might get too hard, but my brain is glad to have the workout. So far the ads aren't too annoying. I'm still playing this word game. I have become pretty good at it, but it's still challenging. It has given my brain a good workout & is fun! I'm now have been playing Word Stacks 3 month. It's still challenging & fun to play.. ### 5/5 — Tita *2023-12-07, version 1.1.1* I've been playing this game for years and it was getting boring. Recently, the game has become challenging again. Perhaps you guys hired a new, smarter puzzle developer? Thank you. Now this game is fun again. ### 5/5 — 👍 *2023-12-07* I enjoy working the puzzle, down side is I had it on my previous phone, but it crashed and unable to transfer... don't remember what level, probably 500+ level with 40,000+ points. But I'll get there again... ### 5/5 — O *2023-12-07* So far, the gameplay is fun and challenging, and if you need help and are out of coins to pay for that help, there is more than one way to get coins without paying (watch ads, do surveys, and some other third party mini-game option I didn’t try).

Some puzzles are easy while some are challenging. It's a good way to work those brain cells! ### 5/5 — Super *2023-12-06, version 1.1.1* I have reached level 400 and am not tired or irritated by the game yet. Yes, there are ads and you can pay to be ad free, but so far I have not seen a reason to do so. The ads tend to be amusing and are not intrusive to me. The game itself works my brain some and you can purchase hints, clues, or rescrambling if needed from the coins you earn on the way. I have not needed to or desired to spend real money. There are still plenty of levels to go and the subjects to repeat, but game is fun. ### 5/5 — ✨✨✨ *2023-12-06, version 1.1.1* Loving this game. It takes a bit of time to build up coins that go towards paying for hints, but you can build your coins quicker by finding the extra words. It's fun, challenging and I can lose myself in this when I want to escape the world for a while. Highly recommend ### 5/5 — Qwerty *2023-12-05, version 1.1.1* Great game to pass the time and just challenging enough not to be boring after extended game play. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 5/5 — qwert *2024-02-20, version 1.1.8* very great game to pass the time ### 5/5 — game *2024-02-15, version 1.1.8* The game is very cool, you can learn a lot of new words ### 5/5 — review *2024-02-14, version 1.1.8* wonderful game! You can play it both at home and on the street with friends. Or when you’re bored, that’s also an option. Develops thinking, vocabulary and in general the game is super! I recommend it to everyone) ### 5/5 — Review *2024-01-18, version 1.1.8* This app is excellent for me because it’s so easy and simple and you can wasting your free time on it. So relaxing app I always play when I have a bad mood ### 5/5 — Maria *2024-01-13, version 1.1.8* An exciting intellectual challenge suitable for the whole family. Thanks to its simple interface, large vocabulary and the ability to invite friends to play, it has become my favorite pastime, which I recommend to all fans of word games. ### 5/5 — I love it *2024-01-12, version 1.1.8* A very wonderful game full of puzzles that help stimulate memory and improve thinking Thanks to the developers ### 5/5 — Cool Game *2023-12-30* I normally don’t take the time to review a game, however the review I read was very negative and encouraged people to not get this game. Respectfully, “if it’s not your type of game” how can you review it fairly? As far as the game not having a point, of course it doesn’t, it’s a game, and as a game it’s a great time waster. There are no ads bombarding you between each round and it allows you to accrue lives by chance or through team play. Ryan Reynolds was right. ### 5/5 — Word Games service is better than any game in the world *2023-12-28* Play this game where ever you have much time it’s just the best game ever if you ever play this game but you’re probably looking at it because you know this game is amazing I would never not do this game it’s the best and I try to do it every day and try to get new characters so far I’ve only had Jake from my dad‘s phone I have I have another girl it’s great I think you should play now you are going to have a great time playing fun game and especially for eight-year-olds 21 and up oh my gosh I even love it and my mom even loves it and she’s 29 and I mean and I love it too so it-year-olds out there I think you’re gonna like it and my mom is only nine and she liked it so 29 year old a picture gonna like you do ### 5/5 — Nice game! *2023-12-25, version 1.1.3* Nice game with many levels, I like it! ### 5/5 — 👍🏻 *2023-12-24, version 1.1.3* I love this game! It's so fun and challenging to unscramble the words and find the hidden ones. The graphics are beautiful and the sound effects are satisfying. It's a great way to relax and exercise your brain at the same time. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
