I play the same way on this version but struggle to get above100,000. Don’t understand why ### 5/5 — Brain challenge *2026-03-07, version 1.11.9* 👍 ### 3/5 — Boring *2026-02-26* Very little variety. The word challenges are weak. It takes way too long for new levels to be created and they are exactly the same as the levels before. For the first time, the new level is locked and there are no instructions on how to open it! So lame **Developer response:** Appreciate the honest feedback. The locked collections become available as you complete all the levels in the prior collection. ### 5/5 — Don’t like timed game *2026-02-22, version 1.11.8* Like everything but the timed game, which is difficult to turn off. ### 5/5 — Say it *2026-02-08* I absolutely love this game, it actually helps me to spell words **Developer response:** That is awesome to hear! Love that it is helping you practice your spelling. ### 4/5 — Fun and addicting *2026-01-22* This is a great game. It’s very addicting. However there are too many ads. Why do you make us sit thru ads after every shirt level? You spend more time watching ads than actual game play. I’m probably going to delete because of this. Sad. A great game ruined by too many ads. **Developer response:** Glad you find the game addicting! We are working to balance ad frequency, and you can also remove ads permanently with the one-time upgrade. ### 2/5 — Stopped working😖 *2025-11-01, version 1.10.90* Been playing for a few years & now it stopped working. Why? I open the app & it freezes for a second then closes. Very frustrating. Is the app no longer updating? How can this problem be fixed? ### 2/5 — Playing *2025-09-05, version 1.10.88* I have loved this game for years, but lately the constant ads have really upset my enjoyment and I just can’t be bothered to play anymore, it’s boring ### 2/5 — Advert heaven *2025-08-14* Great little game but is there really any need for adverts after each & every game, spending more time waiting for ads to finish than playing the game ### 5/5 — Past time *2025-08-05, version 1.10.86* Relaxing and rewarding ## Frequently asked questions about Word Wow Big City ### What is Word Wow Big City?
