For example “fish” could work with “net” (fish net) but that took a heart, because it was meant to be fish sticks. Happened a couple times, I think “acting out” was another. And some of the pairings are awkward or forced. Entertaining enough but would like to see more clear levels and more diversity in pairings. ### 3/5 — Gone easy *2016-12-02, version 3.0.1* I have enjoyed this game especially the multiplayer, since the recent update not so much. I find that it is way too easy now with it giving u possible answers to the chain. I enjoyed it more when I had to actually think of a word that could possibly work with the chain. Just don't find it challenging enough anymore. ### 3/5 — Good, but... *2016-11-25, version 3.0* This is fine just to kill time, but there's no goal. It just cycles through the same words endlessly. No timer, no scoring... meh. ### 5/5 — 5 Stars *2016-11-22, version 3.0* This game is better than Clash Royale! Best word game I've ever played! ### 5/5 — Awesome update *2016-11-22, version 3.0* Game looks and feels much better. Smoother gameplay as well. ### 4/5 — Like it *2016-08-30, version 2.9.0* Like the game. It is challenging. ### 4/5 — Good game *2016-08-22, version 2.9.0* I love this game. I too would like it to template more after the tv show. Thanks ### 4/5 — Good game *2016-07-18, version 2.9.0* It's a good game but I do have one complaint on the tv show they tell you the last word but on the game they don't and for some reason it annoys me. Please add ### 5/5 — Awesome *2016-06-28, version 2.9.0* Fun on top of fun ### 5/5 — Words chain *2016-02-29, version 2.8.7* Fun game as close as you can get to the one on tv ### 5/5 — Love this game! *2016-01-06, version 2.8.5* This game is so much fun! I love to play it because it is entertaining and makes me feel smart and like I am using by brain. Thank you for such a rewarding and fun game! ### 3/5 — Good *2015-12-22, version 2.8.5* Good game. ### 5/5 — Sooooo much fun! *2015-12-18, version 2.8.5* Game is fun to play. Makes you think. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Upgraded app, different game *2016-12-05, version 3.0.1* Upgraded app and it's completely different. I deleted it. You used to be able to just get the first letter of the next word and guess letters until you got the word now it's just multiple-choice for what the next word is. Too easy, disappointed. ### 1/5 — Update crashes *2016-11-30, version 3.0.1* Only able to play a few times. Now it crashes within a few seconds. Original version worked much better. ### 1/5 — Problems *2016-11-27, version 3.0* I like this game, but I'm having problem playing this game. It's like it's on tutorial, then kicks me out. I uninstalled it, then reinstalled it, but it's still doing it. It won't let me play 😡😡😡😡. Very frustrated!!! ### 1/5 — What the! *2016-11-25, version 3.0* This new revamped version blows to put it lightly. Now you just pick a word from some choices. Before it was like the game show chain reaction and you had to guess the next word in the chain by writing a word. This is awful! ### 1/5 — Update? *2015-07-12, version 2.7.1* Just wondering if this is going to be updated soon or if this has been neglected or just abandoned? ### 1/5 — Bad *2013-12-10, version 2.5* Word phrases don't make sense half of the time. Terrible game ### 1/5 — Spelling *2011-12-28, version 1.0* Spelling error on the third game. ### 2/5 — Too Easy Now *2016-12-24, version 3.0.1* I thought the latest upgrade was cosmetic only, but it is now a totally different app. It is too easy - giving us choices takes the fun out of it. ### 2/5 — Low Tech *2016-01-28, version 2.8.6* Unfortunately this game is very low tech and repeats the same sequences. Disappointed, was hoping it was more like the game show. ### 2/5 — Not my favorite *2016-01-03, version 2.8.5* Some of the chains are pretty lame. I'll play it once and a while. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Shocked by all the low reviews *2018-11-11, version 3.0.3* I love it. I'm a big Chain Reaction fan, so I'm super excited to find this. The creator, Spencer Baker, also has another word chain game like this one, but it's not multiple choice. Trying it next. ### 5/5 — Gets your brain going *2016-11-23, version 3.0* Ever since I downloaded this game I have been getting A's on all of my college exams. ### 5/5 — Nice, fun word game *2016-11-23, version 3.0* Love the little characters. ### 5/5 — Super fun to play! *2016-11-23, version 3.0* Seriously can't put it down. ### 5/5 — Love the update *2016-11-23, version 3.0* Great new graphics. Love it! ### 5/5 — Fun and addictive! *2016-11-23, version 3.0* This is a super fun game. I started to play it, and after one game I was addicted. I love it! ### 5/5 — Super fun to play! *2016-11-23, version 3.0* If you enjoy word games this is a must-have. It's very easy to learn and keeps you engaged. It's unlike any other word game I've played which makes it even better. I highly recommend giving this app a go! ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2016-11-23, version 3.0* Good stuff! ### 5/5 — What a great game! *2016-11-22, version 3.0* It is simple but it makes you think fast on each word. I loved it! ### 5/5 — Solid!! *2016-11-22, version 3.0* This app is awesome! It's the OJ Simpson white bronco of iPhone games. Five stars for sure! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
