### 2/5 — Ads freeze

*2024-06-14, version 2.2.71*

I would watch ads if I could return to the game. I cannot. Game and screen freeze until I turn off my iPad and reboot. Not OK.

### 2/5 — Games

*2023-01-07*

Too many adds between games. After I play a game adds of other games come up and I can’t go on with bookworm. They come up between all games I play. Didn’t do this before I updated bookworm.

### 3/5 — Where?

*2022-09-28*

Where is the original Bookworm?

### 2/5 — Bugs!!

*2021-11-16*

This is a five star game with a two star execution!  Love the game. Hate the way it freezes and crashes. Had this game for a while and the freezes and crashes continue through iOS upgrades. FIX YOUR APP PROGRAMERS!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback!   We're always trying to optimize the game performance, and the game can perform differently depending on the device.   One thing you can try is a device reboot.   Hold power down for 4 seconds and then power off completely and then back on, and try the game again.   Please contact me at support@donkeysoft.ca for more assistance.

### 5/5 — Top rate

Challenging and keeps Alzheimer at bay!

### 3/5 — Word wow

*2020-12-22, version 2.2.2*

Too easy

### 5/5 — Rating

*2020-09-12*

This game is a fun game that is quick when your looking for a fast game.

### 4/5 — Word wow

*2020-07-21, version 2.1.93*

Great game-- keeps my mind working

### 5/5 — Cute game

*2020-07-13*

Very addictive! Just started playing this yesterday and can’t put it down.

### 5/5 — On the ball

*2020-06-01*

This game makes you have to be on the ball if you want to win!

### 5/5 — Worm word

*2020-04-23*

Great addictive game!

### 5/5 — My favorite word game

*2020-04-19*

I love this game and all of its spin-offs.  I play often and am improving my word memory and spelling.  So...you have to make words and beat the worm to the bottom.  Know the worm is not on your side, he is devious and sneaky.  There is no “tie goes to the runner/player” here - if it’s close - worm wins - if you are almost at the bottom, you can’t run fast to beat the timer...but worm can!  It’s fun, it’s fast paced and I highly recommend buying out the ads 
Have fun!

### 4/5 — Level 8 bug?

*2020-02-23*

There’s a bug in level 8. Regardless of performance it doesn’t show any progress at all. Check it out.

### 1/5 — Word Wow

*2024-11-21, version 2.2.84*

Takes way too long to add new levels!!!!!

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2023-11-29, version 2.2.60*

I like the game, though.  
Deleting.

### 1/5 — Blocks your progress!

*2022-09-10*

Admittedly a fun game but when you achieve a gem, an awful and PAINFULLY slow icon goes floating up and completely blocks your view of the game. If you are playing for speed, this interrupts the flow and causes you to be frustratingly delayed. You are unable to continue the game until this blasted icon moves out of the way.A really stupid feature

**Developer response:** Thanks Emma!   I'll have a look into this as I do see what you mean.

### 1/5 — Too many Ads

*2021-11-19*

multiple ads between every level, ads on the game window, constantly loading one after another causing annoying lags (screen freezes) … not worth $5 OR the hassle.

**Developer response:** Hi there,

We’ve revised the ads being displayed and hope it provides a better game experience.

Thanks for the feedback.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t fit on iPhone 8 screen

*2021-08-14*

Letters blocked by HUD. Only first level is possible.

**Developer response:** Hi there.   Sorry for the late reply on this.   You need to use the letters under the worm so that he can drop down the level, which will reveal more letters to be used. The game should function the same on iOS devices.

### 1/5 — Assez bien

*2021-07-14*

Je connais toutes les versions des "mots vers", celle ci n'est pas très performante. Beaucoup de mots même très simples ne sont pas reconnus, beaucoup de «blocages» avec, de ce fait, impossibilité de jouer sans fermer le jeu et le réouvrir. 
Les autres jeux «mots vers » sont plus aboutis mis à part quelques petits problèmes. Pour celui ci, il serait préférable de l’améliorer.

### 1/5 — Terrible. I just want to play Bookworm!😟

*2020-02-04, version 2.1.80*

Don’t like this.

### 1/5 — Bombs Away

*2019-05-11*

I like to collect the bombs but it seems like when I reach a goal, the bombs are taken away 2 at a time!!!  I hate that!  It ruins the game for me.  I won’t play it!  I noticed that when I gain a bomb, it takes it away instead of giving it to me!  It hasn’t been fixed!

**Developer response:** Hi there.   If you'd like to contact us as support@donkeysoft.ca I'd like to understand what you are experiencing.    When you use a bomb tile letter in a word you will earn an additional bomb.    Perhaps you mean something else?   I'm also not clear what you mean by "Reach a goal"?

### 1/5 — Ads cause game to crash!

*2019-05-08*

In recent weeks, you’re running ads that cause the game to crash! The screen goes black, and when you try to remove the “ad” to get back to the game, nothing happens! I love these games, but had to repeatedly delete them.

**Developer response:** Oh no.   Thank you for the feedback.   We will look into the ads running.    If you are stuck like this, you do not have to reboot or uninstall the game, you can simply kill the app from memory and rerun it.    Hit the HOME button twice and swipe the app upward, or on a buttonless device (iPhoneX or XR) swipe up from the bottom and then swipe the app upward to kill it.

### 1/5 — Nice update

*2018-06-08*

Ever since you updated my game on my iPhone, I can't play it. I press play when it opens and it immediately shuts down. Then I tried going to the App Support page and was told "the page had a problem loading and had to re-load." Which it just does over and over again, just keeps re-loading...not great

**Developer response:** Hi there.    The latest update fixes this issue.   Can you please let us know if you still have issues after updating at support@donkeysoft.ca?   Thank you.

**Developer response:** Thanks for playing! Glad you're enjoying Seasons.

### 5/5 — Word Wow Seasons

*2025-10-03, version 2.3.2*

I absolutely LOVE this game. It has never bothered me that somehow some people can get 2000-3000+ points while I’m ecstatic when I get over 1000+…until recently🙄..
I have been getting the worst letters almost every game, even when I change the letters, they’re usually not fun to work with either and it’s so saddening..
What’s up?

### 5/5 — Awesome
