### 5/5 — Great game

*2017-09-15, version 1.7.02*

I love this game because its not real easy to just fly through it in a hurry. It takes a little work and I like that alot!! Great Job!

### 5/5 — Stimulating!!

*2017-09-12, version 1.7.02*

Multiple ways to play.Like that I can choose quick play. I can win and I can also challenge my best score and/or my best word. Fun and addictive!! without making a purchase; I can win. I will choose to purchase, just to add to my fun plus rid myself of ads. Some ads though are intriguing. I have found a KEEPER!

### 1/5 — Glitches

*2024-07-28, version 1.7.22*

Every time I get to level 29 it freezes and I have to delete it!

### 1/5 — Lock up

*2019-01-19, version 1.7.02*

Every time I find a long word or win a round the game locks up. It’s a fun game, I wish I could play it.

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2017-02-09, version 1.6.48*

Every time you launch the game and click play it crashes

### 1/5 — Desesperante

*2016-10-02, version 1.6.48*

Se bloquea constantemente, es imposible jugar

### 1/5 — Ads are obnoxious

*2015-12-11, version 1.2.00*

I have no problems with ads, but ads with sound effects that you are stuck listening to for 5+ seconds is ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Can't play

*2015-11-09, version 1.2.00*

I was able to download the game, but it wouldn't go into the game so I could play.

### 1/5 — Nach Update auf Level 1 zurückgestuft

*2015-08-08, version 1.1.64*

Sehr ärgerlich, dass man nach dem jüngsten Update einfach auf Level 1 zurückgesetzt wird

### 1/5 — Boring and glitchy

*2015-02-13*

I tried out the levels but my phone would go too sleep when I was deep in thought on what word to use. When I went back into the game, it'd completely reboot and I'd have to restart the level. Very frustrating. Gameplay itself has poor feedback design. The mini games are poorly designed too. The raining game drops letters too fast. And the 60-second game barely gives you time to really challenge your brain. Either there's too much time or too little time. Game incentive gets lost so this definitely gets boring fast.

### 2/5 — Timed levels not for me

*2022-01-14, version 1.7.22*

I’m a retired English teacher and enjoy playing word games. However, I experience brain lock on timed levels, as do most senior citizens I know. Our brains can still think clearly, but it takes longer.

I loved the first few levels, but then there were 2 timed levels in a row. Nope! I’m looking for a relaxing game that makes me think, not an arcade experience. 

Some games I’ve enjoyed had an option in Settings to skip timed levels. That might be fairly easy to reprogram that option, and I believe you’d keep more players for a longer time. I will have to delete and look for more thoughtful word games.

### 2/5 — enjoyable but extremely difficult

*2020-05-07, version 1.7.22*

i’m not a dictionary. i’m not using a dictionary. some of these levels are extremely difficult to do without an extensive vocabulary (especially ones that contain more unusual letters, like x, v, j, and q). it just... would’ve been a bit kinder to have more of a buildup to the levels that are THIS hard.

### 5/5 — Deliziosa

*2023-02-28, version 1.7.22*

Davvero canina

### 5/5 — Love This Game

*2022-08-12, version 1.7.22*

A few years ago, I discovered this game and played it constantly on my commute to work. I loved the variety of word games all in one game, with new challenges on each level. With the pandemic, my attention has been elsewhere for a couple of years, but now I am starting all over again from the first level, on my iPad. I love that it is familiar yet new all over again. Great game! Just the right level of increasing challenge as we climb levels.

### 5/5 — Enjoyable

*2022-05-15, version 1.7.22*

Looking forward to being able to split out timed games. I am enjoying the game though. 5/7/22 I can’t find a way to ask the developer, but why does the game keep kicking me out in quest 171? It’s hard, it takes some time to find big words. I get about half way through and it crashes me out. I made it through quest 171 5/10/22!  🤣 Please add more levels!

### 5/5 — Really fun

*2021-10-28, version 1.7.22*

A great way to relax

### 5/5 — Very relaxing

*2020-10-21, version 1.7.22*

I like this game a lot. The sound effects and colors are just right. The challenges are varied and fun. I am glad I saw this game as an option and decided to give it a try.

### 5/5 — Buzz words
