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. ### 2/5 — Okay *2016-06-23, version 2.5.1* So far so good better unfreeze after rating!!!! ### 2/5 — Fun!!!!! *2015-10-16, version 2.5.1* Great game if you rate the app!!!!😀😀😍😍 ### 4/5 — Levels *2015-02-19, version 2.5.1* I absolutely love this game! It's challenging but easy and it's definitely a lot of fun. I really like the you have the option to submit your own games. The only thing I don't like is that you only get 10 (at least that's what it gave to me) free puzzles and then you have to pay to get more. :/ There should be more free levels before you have to buy things. ### 3/5 — Ridules *2015-01-29, version 2.5.1* Would be more fun if it did not keep making me start all over when not playing for a while... Discouraged me, got fed up... ### 4/5 — Good game! *2014-07-22, version 2.5.1* Great game, but it froze when we refused the request to write a review. ### 2/5 — Annoying *2014-04-23, version 2.5.1* Please sort this game out it crashed twice on me I've had enough it's spoilt the game ### 4/5 — Fun! *2014-03-07, version 2.5.1* Highly recommend I it! ### 4/5 — Love This game *2013-11-24, version 2.5.1* Great past time. Keeps you thinking! ### 4/5 — Good *2013-11-23, version 2.5.1* Good ### 4/5 — Glitched *2013-11-07, version 2.5.1* Cool game. It just has a glitch at level 5 that is so annoying! ### 2/5 — Educator *2013-10-12, version 2.5.1* Game keeps getting "stuck" every few levels--only game I have problems. Too bad because it is fun. ### 3/5 — Ms *2013-09-26, version 2.5.1* Good for testing my spelling... ### 3/5 — Loose it when paused *2013-09-16, version 2.5.1* I really like the game but if I don't have time to finish it the next time I open it, it's a brand new game. Very frustrating. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Score disappears again... *2016-09-26, version 2.5.1* 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... ### 1/5 — Rip off *2015-03-03, version 2.5.1* Bought the levels on the first pack/level got upto level20 logged off went to log back in the next day only for my account to be wiped and what I bought gone?????......... ### 1/5 — ? *2014-07-12, version 2.5.1* Can't get it to work! ### 1/5 — Ew *2014-05-12, version 2.5.1* This doesn't work........... ### 1/5 — Can only play 4 or 5 levels *2014-04-23, version 2.5.1* It is a fun game but you can only play 4 or 5 levels before it asks you to rate it and if you hit "remind me later" or "no thanks" the game freezes and you cannot play anymore...pointless app but it would have been fun ### 1/5 — Why does the game freeze? *2014-04-15, version 2.5.1* The game is interesting but I can't continue beyond level 4. I would pay for an upgrade without ads just to check it out. ### 1/5 — Stuck *2013-09-02, version 2.5.1* Game asked me if I wanted to read it. I said no. And now the game is stuck. I have no choice but to delete the game. It won't let me do anything. ### 1/5 — If it worked it would be fun *2013-07-11, version 2.5.1* Freezes up at level 5 ### 1/5 — Words and riddles *2013-06-25, version 2.5.1* Game is great but messed up as it keeps freezing and also can't get beyond 5 levels. Also, keep having to delete and download game! Very frustrating. ### 1/5 — Frozen out *2013-05-21, version 2.5.1* Love Absolutist but annoyed screen frozen and can no longer play ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Got A Minute *2018-05-17, version 2.7.3* 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. ### 5/5 — mixed... *2017-09-18, version 2.5.1* Love it, each time I installed it, it was new words. ### 5/5 — great *2015-04-20, version 2.5.1* Great game ### 5/5 — Word and riddles *2014-12-02, version 2.5.1* Really like the game.....keeps me thinking ### 5/5 — Words and riddles *2014-09-05, version 2.5.1* Awesome, fun entertainment. ### 5/5 — I'm Hooked *2014-06-20, version 2.5.1* I always try to find games like this. The kind that I can't stop playing.....ever! ### 5/5 — Tutu *2014-05-23, version 2.5.1* Luv the game ### 5/5 — Fun! *2014-01-11, version 2.5.1* Great & Addicting game, you won't be disappointed! ### 5/5 — Words and Riddles *2013-10-22, version 2.5.1* I just started playing tonight and I like the challenge of having to think outside the box to solve all puzzles. It definitely engages your brain to think of alternatives. ### 5/5 — Good *2013-09-21, version 2.5.1* I only got to level 4 than it stopped on me but its a good game if you can get pass level 4. I am upset about that. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
