Like it but?

I paid for this game a few years ago and as someone else mentioned if you don’t play it for a long time you lose everything and have to start over. I lost the hints I had purchased too so will not play it anymore. It’s too bad because it’s a good game that makes you think.

Got A Minute

This is a great “got a minute” game. Challenging but not to difficult. For five years this has been my go to for quick fun.

Score disappears again...

Once again after reaching a high score it completely disappears. When I log on to play I am asked for my name again as a new player and my score is gone. The only player that seems to keep a high score is Nan or Nanze. Beginning to believe unless you are one of the two names I mentioned you will never keep your score nor win this game. Very disappointing... Very odd...
