Unfortunately many of the terms are British as opposed to US English, which makes it more difficult for an American player. Also, many of the images are too small to make out on a cell phone. ### 4/5 — It’s great, but… *2025-08-27, version 8.0.5* I love this game. It’s fun. It’s challenging. It’s great. But could you guys fix the “sound off” button. My sound is off and it’ll still play sound every time I begin playing the game. I like to keep everything on silent, except things that involve emergencies. ### 3/5 — Fehlerhaft *2025-01-31* Seit dem letzten Update muss ich jedesmal, beim Start eines Spiels, den Ton ein-und wieder einschalten, damit der Ton ausbleibt. Die Einstellung, Ton aus, bleibt nicht erhalten ### 3/5 — Pam JI *2024-07-29, version 7.005* I have been playing this game for years as it one of the best picture word games available, however, for sometime it will not fully open on my iPad & yet opens on my iPhone. I would appreciate some help please. I have removed & re opened the app several times over many month but it still just opens to the blue opening page but will not open to the puzzle. ### 2/5 — To many ads *2024-07-17, version 7.005* This game is different and interesting. It started out easy and expected it to get harder as I progressed so was looking forward to the challenge however I got to the 5th level and am now deleting. An ad after every level is over the top especially in the early levels the ads take longer than the actual level. I understand that you need the ads but perhaps after every 3rd level would be better😞 ### 2/5 — Wordalot *2024-05-12, version 7.005* Game will not load since latest update. And yet again it’s still not working months later ### 2/5 — Good game *2024-05-07, version 7.005* I have lost all my progress how can I get it back ### 3/5 — Game is stuck on MAG home page… *2024-04-12, version 7.003* Everytime I open the app it always sticks on the mag page and doesn’t change, I’ve tried force closing the app, I’ve tried restarting my phone, but it never helps. Please fix is as I really love the game! ### 4/5 — Muitos anúncios *2024-04-09* O app é muito bom já utilizei outras vezes, resolvi baixar novamente mas a quantidade de anúncios acaba me deixando sem paciência, antes não era assim. O jogo seria algo para distrair e não para estressar. Sendo assim vou desinstalar. ### 3/5 — Used to be 5 Stars *2023-12-26, version 7.003* I love this game. I have completed it several times & started over. The reason I dropped to 3 stars is the last update dropped the amount of coins won for completing a picture , completing a level or doing the daily challenge. We went from 4 upon completing a picture to 2. You can get 4 if you want to watch an ad. The daily challenge dropped from 15 upon completion to 10. You used to get 10 coins for completing a level & now you get 4. I don’t mind not ever getting a lot of coins, but don’t reward players for doing well & then take it away. That’s tacky. ### 4/5 — Fun to play, but loading problems - still happening Oct 2022 *2023-12-15, version 7.003* I love your puzzle, but it takes forever to load each day, for the last three weeks. I have to delete and redo to have it load and that is for at least 10 times. I don’t know if it’s that you need to update for the new IOS, but something needs adjustment. Please don’t let me keep having to start over at 2 points when I was at 15 everyday for weeks. Update December 2023 Thank you for solving the problems I experienced in the past and I had hoped to now keep enjoying the puzzles. But as a senior citizen, I am not happy with the update making the letters smaller and more spaced out. It’s more difficult for those of us who are past 60. I hope you can allow us to chose the “look” we prefer to allow us to continue enjoying exercising our brains as we try to avoid dementia. My other concern is that I used to be able to start a puzzle and come back later to finish it. Now it makes me start all over - I don’t understand why that needs to be. Please explain. ### 2/5 — New update rubbish! *2023-12-07, version 7.003* Why change a good thing? If it’s not broken, why fix it? Letters are now widely spaced which makes it harder to visualise the words. Daily puzzle struggles to emerge and when it does the four images are blurred and out of focus. They do eventually right themselves. Please put letters back the way they were. ### 4/5 — Fonte pequena *2023-12-07* A fonte nova do jogo ficou muito pequena ### 3/5 — Wordalot picture *2023-07-28, version 6.004* I love this game but I often do not get the 15 points for the daily puzzle.frustrating. ### 2/5 — Neue Level? *2023-07-26, version 6.004* Hab das Spiel jetzt 3x komplett durch. Gibt es nochmal neue Level, oder kann man es löschen? ### 4/5 — Good game *2023-07-05, version 6.004* I’ve played this game for years. As I have progressed, it of course has become more difficult. But, what is annoying me is that, for example, in the picture of a lady catching her daughter who is jumping towards her in a room that looks like a kitchen. There was one word I could not get. Eventually, it turned out to be ‘basket’. There is no way, there was a basket in the picture! I have come across this before, where the answer in the crossword, is not in the picture. Rather disappointing as it’s a good game. ### 3/5 — Points *2023-06-14, version 6.004* I’m not getting any of my bonus points like I’m suppose to when I complete them. That needs to b fixed ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Overture sur iphone *2026-07-22, version 8.1.0* Le jeu ne veut pas ouvrir sur mon iPhone. Pourtant ça dit compatible avec iPhone mais ça reste sur l'écran d'ouverture 🥺 ### 1/5 — Please fix sound issue *2024-11-05, version 8.0.5* Game is excellent but I can’t mute sound and it’s annoying me please fix this issue when I start game i have to go in settings first i have to unmute and then mute it every single time i have to do that ### 1/5 — So much adverts *2024-05-23, version 7.005* Way 2 many adverts for just starting the game. The games easy to start with so can finish each round fast but the adverts are so long after every round it’s put me off playing any further than level 5 and I have no uninstalled it due to this ! ### 1/5 — Coins *2024-01-02, version 7.003* Every time I buy coins or win coins it takes them away from me. I have bought a lot of coins only to have them disappear. ### 1/5 — Hate the new smaller text size! *2023-12-26, version 7.003* Love your game, but I may have to stop playing because the new smaller text size is hard to use. Takes a lot of the fun out when you have to struggle with the format. You need to make the size bigger, like it was before, or give users some choice. ### 1/5 — Aggiornare *2023-12-17, version 7.003* Dopo l’ultimo aggiornamento l’app non si carica..apre la schermata iniziale a sfondo blu con la scritta MAG e si blocca così! Aggiornatela x favore ### 1/5 — The new update *2023-12-13, version 7.003* It is so bad for my eyes and i can’t play it again so please cancel this update ### 1/5 — Исчезла помощь друга… Почему??? Связь с техподдержкой отсутствует… *2023-12-12* Связь с техподдержкой отсутствует, нельзя попросить помощь у друга… ### 1/5 — Resets points to zero *2023-03-04, version 6.004* About once a month, the puzzle appears on my iPhone 11 with pictures, but no words. Obviously I can’t solve the puzzle, but Wordalot makes me start over at 2 points. Very discouraging and frustrating. ### 1/5 — Continued problems even after notifying *2022-05-23, version 6.004* I’ve notified the developer several times about problem. Even sent pictures. Stlll unable to continue on with puzzle as the photos are present but no words on grid. Please fix this ongoing issue. And now I’ve lost all the accumulated points earned over 1500. On top of it all they now are making me watch ads after I purchased no ads years ago. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I’ve completed the Game!! *2026-02-04, version 8.0.6* It is the best word game out there. I’m currently on level 1284 and I hope it doesn’t end anytime soon. Bravo!! I’m done. Level 1856. There are no more levels. Are you planning to add more levels? I love this game so I certainly hope so. ### 5/5 — Yapay zeka çözemezse biz nasıl çözeceğiz *2024-10-30, version 8.0.5* Muhteşem Duolingo’dan sonra araya zırt pırt reklam almayan ilk defa bir uygulama gördüm, bu yönü ile muhteşem ama daha bir kaç flaş yaptıktan sonra kelimelerin flaş kartlar ile ilgisi kalmıyor veya aşırı zor; en sonunda dayanayıp Chat GPT’ye sordum o bile bulamadı, hemen ıygulamdan harf satın almanız gerekiyor kısacası ücretsiz tarafı ilk oyunu başarıyla geçip ikinci oyuna gelene kadar; sonra cash point ### 5/5 — Восстановление прогресса. *2024-06-19* Вчера я достигла уровня 1855, а после рекламы весь прогресс исчез и началась игра с первого уровня. Возможно ли восстановить уровни? ### 5/5 — Not working properly *2023-11-16* This was a good game but now it hardly opens…you have to close and open for more than ten times then only it works. Requesting the admin to check the same…does anyone else have this problem? ### 5/5 — Great game *2023-10-15, version 6.004* Finished playing the game to the last level over 3 times, and still go back for more. It’s mad that you remember some of the earlier levels, but still struggle to remember the words. ### 5/5 — Update *2023-03-29, version 6.004* Please update level ### 5/5 — Fun *2023-03-22, version 6.004* Have played my ad-free version for years & still enjoy it. Upon finishing all levels, one has the option to start from scratch; I’ve done this several times. Not difficult, so perfect play for those times when I’m tired but still want to play a decent game. Hint: Don’t overthink the answers. No glitches at all & never nagged to buy coins, a fact I appreciate. For the sake of fairness, I occasionally buy coins simply to support the developers. Nice game. ### 5/5 — Más niveles *2023-03-07, version 6.004* Ya me los acabé ### 5/5 — I need more 😃 *2023-01-19* I’ve completed more than 1700 levels twice already, please upgrade the app to more levels 🙏😅🙏 ### 5/5 — félicitations pour votre Jeu Wardalot *2022-12-17, version 6.004* bonjour, Je Joue depuis le début même parfois, si c’est dur cela fait travailler le cerveau : quel bonheur ? baie de St Brieuc --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
