### 4/5 — Wordplay

*2026-08-05, version 1.14.1600*

Enjoy this game really makes me think

### 3/5 — It works

*2026-04-24, version 1.14.1600*

I wanted a brief crossword puzzle in French so I could learn and practice the language. This delivers but I don’t care for so much game frills.

### 3/5 — Ok game

*2026-01-17, version 1.14.1600*

…

### 5/5 — From Madison

*2025-12-03, version 1.14.1600*

I like this because it helps me spell faster and the puzzles

### 5/5 — Wordplay

*2025-11-03, version 1.14.1600*

Awesome just need to have more help cause words always changing

### 3/5 — How many levels are possible?

*2025-10-25, version 1.14.1600*

My husband and I both have this game.  We are at different levels.  I cannot figure out the puzzles to save my life.  It is very annoying to try a word that is not accepted, only for it to be accepted after a couple of tries.  My biggest problem is that the game stops at level 6000.  I got a message that said that new levels would be added soon.  What is the timeframe on that?

### 5/5 — Nice n Chill Game

*2025-10-20, version 1.14.1600*

This is a nice and chill wordplay game. I really like the background music on this one. This game isn’t incredibly hard but hard enough at certain levels.

### 5/5 — Great Word Game

*2025-09-30, version 1.14.1600*

Love this game keeps my mind working !!

### 4/5 — Weekend contests

*2025-09-16, version 1.14.1600*

I’m not interested in playing a contest every week. If I don’t play, I either forfeit 5 days play or spend coins to maintain my place. There needs to be an opt out option.

### 5/5 — Words challenge

*2025-09-06, version 1.14.1600*

Love this game! Helps pass waiting times :)
