Not many adds which is awesome❤️ I bought it and as soon as I started playing it Ive became obsessed 😍 If I could I would give it a 100/100❤️ (I’m sorry if it’s too much I just love it😳😆) ### 5/5 — Brain medicine *2023-09-12, version 1.38* Its great fir your brain and memory I do at least 5-7 puzzles per day. As you play it also helps your eye movement as your looking for words, its kinda lie eye exercises lol but Seriously its a great way to take your mind off everyday things/problems. ### 4/5 — Word search game *2023-07-27, version 1.37* I enjoy doing this word search game. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2025-04-29, version 1.41* There are too many ads and the time between game is horrendous. ### 1/5 — Ads *2023-08-05* I minute game and 2 minutes ads ### 1/5 — Choice of words *2022-12-27* Some of the words are not kid friendly. Please review them. ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2021-06-06, version 1.32* If you are bored and looking forward a wat to waste your time this app will fulfill that desire. ### 1/5 — 😭😭😤 *2020-06-29, version 1.28* Boring ### 1/5 — Las palabras son obcenas en muchos juegos *2020-03-21, version 1.27* No la recomiendo ### 1/5 — Word search issues. *2019-08-05, version 1.23* This app is having trouble! When I try to go across the word it doesn’t highlight it! This needs to be fixed! Updating app doesn’t work w/ that. It also says app support but that doesn’t lead to anyone or anything to help it just leads to more games!! ### 2/5 — Too easy *2025-11-19, version 1.42* My son is only 11 years old and can find all the words. Should be labeled as a kids’ game. ### 2/5 — Fun to play until you reach the end *2025-10-28, version 1.42* The good: I like it fine. It passes the time. The ads aren’t absurd and when an ad does start you can just close the app and reopen and the ad is gone. There aren’t many advertisements while playing either which is good. You don’t need internet or WiFi to play either. You can close a puzzle during a game and you won’t lose progress on the puzzle. The stupid: One day I went to do a puzzle and a screen pops up stating that it can’t retrieve puzzles. I clicked retry repeatedly and nothing. Restarted my phone and tried again and again nothing. I guess you only get so many puzzles before you have to start over. Pretty stupid to be totally honest. I redownloaded and it’s fine now so I guess I’ll play it until the puzzles run out again but I won’t be downloading it again bc why ### 2/5 — Für Zwischendurch *2020-12-31* Wortsuche einfach. Zahlen fordern ein wenig aber auch relativ schnell machbar. Werbeeinblendungen sind nervig wenn ohnehin schon dauerhaft Werbung am unteren Rand gezeigt wird. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fun Game *2026-05-11, version 1.43* Excellent and fun! ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-05-09* Surprisingly soothing to play. ### 5/5 — Engaging *2026-02-09, version 1.42* Relaxing and fun. Keeping the brain alert, active and alive!!! ### 5/5 — A fun challenge! *2026-01-29* I thoroughly enjoy this puzzle. It is challenging and sometimes frustrating, but a wonderful way to exercise my brain. ### 5/5 — Mots mêlés en français *2025-11-27* Un merveilleux jeu ### 5/5 — No annoying ads! *2025-10-08, version 1.42* When you open this app, it takes you straight to the puzzle. The only ads are rolling across the bottom and don’t interfere with the puzzle. When going to the next game, there will be some ads, but I avoid that by closing the app and opening it back up again. It’s not as fancy or colorful as other similar puzzles, but NO ANNOYING ADS TO GO THROUGH TO GET TO A PUZZLE. ### 5/5 — Mrs *2025-09-27, version 1.41* I love this word search, it has optional levels and better content. Definitely my favorite!!! ### 5/5 — Word Search *2025-09-15* Thank you for this gift of challenge and delight. My daily brain wake up technique. ### 5/5 — Keeps my brain challenged *2025-08-20, version 1.41* Keeps me thinking… ### 5/5 — Keeps brain going *2025-07-09, version 1.41* Pass the time by solving the word puzzle. Not too challenging but ok. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
