### 4/5 — Fun

*2020-01-20*

This is a great way to relax and take the burdens from me.

### 4/5 — Games

I love your free version of words alone, but what I am interested in is some one to take the board word game ,probe to a on line version if you are interested.Can you check out the game if you have not heard of it. I would play it against the computer, since I only use those options in games I play.

### 4/5 — Fun word game!

*2014-11-17*

I'm not a big game player so I like that I can play this brain-stimulating game (quietly) whenever I have a few minutes to spare.  Fun and addicting!
I just wish it let you play more letters like a real game.

### 4/5 — Good Short Game!

*2013-10-02*

This is an enjoyable short form of Scrabble, with enough variety to offer some strategy options even in the short game.  Good to play when you have 5 minutes or so to keep the Scrabble muscles in training.

Very good cant put it down

### 4/5 — Words Alone

*2013-05-06*

I absolutely love this. Now I can practice my scrabble game by myself. It keeps my brain active and improves my vocabulary skills. I lead rather a solitary life and am the only full time resident in my community for 9 months out of the year.  This and high speed Internet have really improved the quality of my life!

### 4/5 — Enjoyable

*2013-03-01*

This is a pleasant game, I'm very happy with it.

### 4/5 — Word liter

*2013-01-31, version 2.4*

It's quick and fun, and helps with brain use.

### 5/5 — *** Word Alone Lite: ***

*2013-01-26, version 2.4*

This is a fun and mindful game for all ages, especially kids. :()

### 5/5 — Words alone

*2012-12-25*

I LOVE this game. It is quick, easy to play and very addicting- in a great way.

### 3/5 — Words alone write

*2012-12-21*

Not enough tiles to play a decent game

### 4/5 — High School English Teacher

*2012-12-14*

Word lite is great makes you focus and strategize I even got my 80 year old mom to try it was fascinating to her especially since she wanted to beat my scores

### 5/5 — Fun, fun, fun

*2012-12-05, version 2.4*

Enjoying very much. Just started playing.  Good for the brain.

### 5/5 — Fun!

*2012-12-01*

A challenge and a joy for a word smith.  Move as fast or as slow as you want.  Try never to swap out letters and see if you can use all the letters. Compete with your own scores!  In addition to using all the letters, try to place high scoring letters on the tiles that double or triple your scores.  A free game with lots of thinking.  Love it!!

### 5/5 — Review

### 1/5 — What rot

*2019-07-13*

I had downloaded this game andn another like it but after twenty minutes I deleted it.

I was playing with a person that the computer had given me but it wouldn’t submit the word. I decided to go an check out reviews for these games and found people weren’t happy as the computer dictionary was stupid. In scrabble you can’t use names or slang or words that are shortened but what dictionary is the computer using as they use what the original scrabble won’t allow. I’m 64 and love word games just like an 82 year old person stated as it keeps our brain going.

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2012-10-15*

Not enough tiles to constitute a proper game!

### 1/5 — Words alone lite

*2012-06-30, version 2.2*

Can't tell whether it's good or not with so few letters.

### 1/5 — Uhhhh, is this a JOKE???

*2012-03-18*

I realize this is only the trial version, but how do the devs expect us to have a fair chance to try this game out with a mere 12 letters? But even more frustrating than that is the fact that the letter you are trying to place on the board has a sixteen tile shadow around the letter!!!  Sure makes it rather difficult to place the letter on the correct tile, especially since your finger covers the letter itself so all you can see is a 16 tile shadow over the board!!! Weird!!  I think I'll just drop this word game into the trash can and go back to Scrabble, which is almost identical to this game but has a lot more bells and whistles to it.

### 2/5 — suzymurphy

*2013-07-18*

Am about to delete 
When I have used all my tiles CORRECTLY and hit plat it tells me all the letters must touch
I've played Scrabble for years and am quite aware of how to place tiles to form words
A waste of time
If it worked it would have been fun and challenging

### 2/5 — Could be fun

*2012-11-02*

This could be a fun and quick little game!  The problem I have is with getting the same letters over and over.  Hard to get a fun mix of letters.  I know this will sometimes be the case, but MOST of the time?

### 2/5 — Good start, but not there yet.

*2012-06-13*

This free version doesn't provide enough of a sample to know if the full game would be enjoyable.  Good start, but not enough challenge or information to entice me to purchase the full version.  It would be better if the game played against you possibly.

### 3/5 — Good

*2014-06-27, version 2.6.2*

It's a challenge with only so many letters but I like a challenge. Love that there are no ads.

### 3/5 — Fun but......

*2014-02-28, version 2.6.2*

It is a really fun game but sometimes it gives me a Q but not a U so I can't even make word!

### 3/5 — Decent but....

*2013-01-17*

While this game is decent in its own right, I question whether the letters you get is truly random. It seems at times the letters received are calculated based on the word you create and where on the board you put it.
