This app is a splendid resource for educators.  With this app, I can use etymology to teach ESL in a fun and visual way.  It encourages students to learn vocabulary intuitively.  Bravo.

*2017-09-29*

I think this is such an elegant app. When something flows along so seamlessly, you’re grateful for all the thought behind it. 
My compliments. I’ll keep using it myself. Sharing it now with my brothers kids. 
(Oh, and delete one of those two-star reviews. I hit the wrong button my first try. Five stars all the way!)

### 5/5 — The Facebook of tutoring apps

*2017-09-28*

Wow ! Words can't begin to describe how much I love this app - looks like I need to play wordcraft more! My grandchildren in Massachusetts love to play it :) it's so user friendly and addicting 👌👌👌

### 5/5 — Clever, intelligent, and keeps you wanting to learn more

*2017-09-26*

This app makes learning the roots of words, fun! Personally, it has helped me prep for the GREs. Definitely recommend to anyone that needs to brush up on vocabulary.

### 5/5 — Educational and addictive (in a good way)

*2017-09-25*

I tutor junior high students and Wordcraft is an excellent tool for expanding vocabulary through learning roots. This app teaches students how to quickly break down complex words to their most basic ideas.  The game help students memorize and master words and progresses in interesting ways.  It offers a healthy dose of competition for an individual player, and also allows players to challenge other friends. It can be hard to put it down as it feels so gratifying to have mastered a word.  Highly recommend for any student as these decoding skills are valuable in many areas of study.

### 5/5 — Fun and Challenging

*2017-09-25*

This app is great. I like that you can go at your own speed; you can race through it for more points or take your time and try to learn every single element of the game. And there's so many words!

### 5/5 — Clever new way to learn vocabulary with roots

*2017-09-23*

I love words and I've always wanted to teach my kids the Latin and Greek roots. This game is beautifully designed and teaches the roots in a very clever innovative way. My kids love it and are learning a lot and it's increasing my vocabulary as well. I just learned that "disaster" means "bad star". Very cool!

### 5/5 — Perfect way to learn

*2017-09-23*

Lots of fun to play and I learn at the same time what could be better

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2017-09-23, version 1.1*

Beautifully designed and so much fun to use

### 5/5 — Great new way to learn words

*2017-09-23, version 1.1*

Love this app it really shows how important the roots are to expanding your vocabulary!

### 5/5 — Ingenious Language Game

*2017-09-22*

Wordcraft is a fun game for learning Latin and Greek roots while expanding your vocabulary. It's visually pleasing and intuitive to use. It never occurred to me that "cephalopod" meant an animal with feet connected to its head! And there are beautiful illustrations for us visual learners. Looking forward to what new features they roll out in future updates.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2017-09-14*

I love this app! I'm a teacher so I played it myself and recommended it to my students. Unfortunately, it's only available on iPhones. I wish my students with androids could use it too. It's a great way to practice prefixes. I like how the activities change over time so you don't get bored.

**Developer response:** We just released a web demo that's an in class spelling bee. You can test it out here - www.playwordcraft.com ... hope your students enjoy and let us know if we can build something to suit your needs (email ben@playwordcraft.com )!

I’ve watched my kids disappear inside Wordcraft only to emerge hours later using words that *I* had to look up. After I tried it myself, I completely understand their love for it. Fantastic! Thanks!
