### 5/5 — He said it only has

*2021-08-13*

I’m sorry to hear about o

### 5/5 — Fun word game

*2018-02-04, version 2.0.4*

Works really well, a good challenge that’s a bit different from the others I’ve played.

### 5/5 — Great game for Wordies!!!

*2015-03-04, version 2.0.1*

This game is really fun to play! Different game modes keep it fresh. If you're a Wordie like me you'll love it! Definitely a must try!

### 4/5 — Joybells

*2010-07-28, version 0*

Wonderful game but it won't let me buy the full version and that is SO frustrating!

### 4/5 — Fun. I like it.

*2010-03-28*

Quick pace, good controls. Nice interface. Probably going to buy the full version. The only con: vibrates when you make a non-word.

### 1/5 — Only 2 Levels?...Seriously?

*2010-03-04*

On the free version u get what u pay for & it's not interesting enuf to pay for the full version. 

### 2/5 — Not recommended.

*2010-02-23*

I can't stay interested for more than 30 seconds.

### 4/5 — Would buy the full version if it had these improvements...

*2010-02-22*

I've been playing this game endlessly, and enjoying it. The interface is attractive , and I love that I can turn the timer off and go for really long words. But I do find these things annoying:
- needs a delete +/or backspace key
- needs an "end game" button for when you run out of words you can make
- I wish it had a "best word" list, like Wordpop does, with the number of points earned for each word.  This would be way more useful and interesting to me than statistics like number of words made, number of tiles used, average points per game, etc.

### 2/5 — A bit frustrating

*2010-01-30*

The roadblock you hit when vowels are unavailable is cumbersome. You have to wait until time runs out to start a new game. It would be better if there was a remedy perhaps the game should end automatically at that point? Too much trouble as it stands. At least it's free oh well.

### 2/5 — Good game but problems

*2009-11-29*

The game itself is fun. The major flaw is when you ger to a board with no
Vowels. The game has no way of proceeding at this point. You have to quit and start over, there is no way to go to the next level. Also, the volume doesn't adjust! It's either on or off. On is pretty loud. I would buy the full version if this is corrected.
