What’s the point of earned rewards if you have to re-earn it by watching ads, and this with no option to decline. Multiple ads per level and in between levels. Come on guys, I’m sure you can do better! ### 2/5 — Really!!! 25 videos! *2026-01-31* You expect me to watch 25 videos for a measly game??!!! That’s too much. I have a number of games that don’t require such a high amount, and I choose what games I play!!! ### 3/5 — Bummer *2026-01-07* Just loaded this game today. Had high hopes but after it started forcing adds in the middle of a game I am deleting it today. Hate being interrupted in the middle of a game. **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! We’re sorry the ads ruined your experience 😔 We’re trying to keep a balance so the game stays free and still enjoyable. Your opinion helps guide us in the right direction! ### 2/5 — Game *2025-09-24* It is an awesome game but way to many ads ### 2/5 — Way too many ads *2025-08-10* Game is kinda fun but there are way, way, way too many ads. When the “ad break” came up in the middle of a game that was it for me. Game deleted. ### 3/5 — Legal *2025-07-19* Não tem idioma português ### 2/5 — Carino ma che cavolo *2025-03-07, version 0.1.10* Carino il gioco ma partono pubblicità alla fine e all’inizio di ogni livello, la disinstallo ### 2/5 — Too many ads *2025-02-22* You have nothing to go off of to try and work out the phrase. You get an ad after everything you click!!! Better word games ### 4/5 — Langue *2025-02-01* Bonjour, Vous notez dans les informations qu’il y a plusieurs langues pour jouer, or en ouvrant le jeu il ne s’affiche que l’anglais ; pouvez vous mettre la traduction en Français ? Je ne maîtrise pas bien cette langue. Merci ### 4/5 — Numbers *2025-01-23* Is there anyway the devs could please please make the numbers more bolder to stand out as they are virtually impossible to see even in a darkened room I would have given this game 5 stars if it was more playable ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Good game but…. *2026-06-02* Really enjoyed this game but far to many adds especially during play so unfortunately will now uninstall. ### 1/5 — ADS ADS ADS *2026-01-29* I am deleting this app. All it does is push ads after every level and now it's pushing ads in the middle of level levels. It is a total con and garbage. ### 1/5 — Ads too long!! *2025-12-22* What gives you the idea that you should make your players endure longer ads and for what? It’s rude! ### 1/5 — Ads before levels is a no go *2025-07-11* I played this game on my sister’s phone and really enjoyed it so I downloaded it onto my phone. Once I got to level seven it started playing ads BEFORE I started a new level. That is diabolical and unacceptable. I will not support a game like that. Put them at the end of you must but right at the beginning and in the middle of game play? Absolutely stupid. ### 1/5 — Bugia *2025-02-08, version 0.1.10* Non esiste la lingua italiana ### 1/5 — Rip off and frustrating! *2025-01-27* Game itself is good and I enjoy it so I bought the ad free version because you had to watch a very loooong ad In between each level… funnily enough, you STILL have to watch the bloody ads in between the levels. And, when I reached out to support, crickets - no response. So - bypass this game - don’t waste any of your time on it… keep going to the next one. ### 1/5 — Frustrating *2025-01-25* The janky typing interface causes errors, and penalizes you heavily for them. If you figure out a letter/number combination, it should auto populate every instance of that number. This might help decrease the errors. ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2025-01-24* Too many ads like every other game ### 1/5 — I like the game BUT *2025-01-21* The game is ruined by all the adds. If you don’t want to watch for the bonus you’re still forced to watch one anyway. This has made me uninstall it. Good luck ### 2/5 — Too many ads that ruin the game *2026-03-15* I really want to like the game but there are far too many ads that ruin it. Not only are there ads between completed levels, there are ads after every few letters you solve. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Graham stansfield *2026-05-13* Great game ### 5/5 — Good for improving English words *2026-04-26* Thanks for whoever made this app :) so helpful ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-07-01* I literally just got it and I’m on level 20 ### 5/5 — Word and friends cryptogram *2025-02-22* Good game ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-02-20* After work and getting dinner on for me and I’m on this game. ### 5/5 — So far so good *2025-02-14, version 0.1.10* I’m early in the game and I am enjoying it so far :) ### 5/5 — Wonderful Game *2025-02-08* Excellent game to keep my mind sharp ### 5/5 — Definitely Challenging *2025-02-06* This game is so fun braise it makes you use your brain. It’s not easy but worth working on ### 5/5 — Daily? *2025-01-20* This is a fun game. But when do the daily puzzles start? ### 4/5 — Words & Books: code question *2026-02-20* I can play when I need to,No time lines. It’s a”just for fun “ game. It has a challenging theme that you want to help pass time yet not stress over. I like playing the cryptograms and recalling the famous quotes from the past. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
