### 4/5 — Game

*2026-08-06, version 3.2.0*

I really enjoyed playing this game at first, and then they started updating the game and took all the fun out of it. I found out that it was a bot game. That’s what really made me  delete it. I don’t want to play a bot game! all the time that I played it was for years. I thought I was playing with real people. They started throwing words in that didn’t even belong to categories just to throw you off.

### 3/5 — It’s very calming

*2026-07-31, version 3.2.0*

It’s a word association/matching game.   Not terribly difficult, but it is relaxing.

### 3/5 — Start over?

*2026-05-20, version 3.2.0*

Love the game but why can’t I start over after completing all the levels?

### 2/5 — Haven’t updated levels in a year

*2026-04-17, version 3.2.0*

The game itself is fun and challenging but outside of daily challenges, they haven’t added new levels in a very long time. Very disappointing

### 4/5 — Fun

*2026-02-11, version 3.2.0*

Fun, but too many advertisements

### 2/5 — Yeah but no but

*2026-01-11, version 3.2.0*

A genuinely daft amount of adverts — just irritatingly and unreasonably so. I liked the game, but I can’t enjoy it with quite this many ads; and I’m seeing adverts all the time for THIS game too!, which feels kind of ridiculous!

### 4/5 — Words

*2025-10-30, version 3.2.0*

Ok

### 4/5 — Great Game

*2025-10-18, version 3.2.0*

I like that it’s not too easy like similar games.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-10-01, version 3.2.0*

Love it

### 5/5 — Fun

*2025-09-30, version 3.2.0*

Great for a fun and calming distraction from reality

### 5/5 — Games

*2025-09-15, version 3.2.0*

Fun to play. Makes you use your brain and a lot of guessing.

### 5/5 — Relaxing and absorbing!

*2025-08-03, version 3.2.0*

Relaxing and absorbing!

### 2/5 — Ads…of course.

*2025-07-29, version 3.2.0*

I just instantly close the app after every level to avoid the ads. 
They need a better way to make money other than interrupting the experience with a dumb ad.

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2025-07-16, version 3.2.0*

Fun game great distraction

### 3/5 — New levels

*2025-07-04, version 3.2.0*

It’s been a year since you said new levels would be added soon.  When will they be added?

Where are the new levels you said have been added.  I am till waiting for them.

 Still waiting.

### 5/5 — Great✌️

*2025-06-27, version 3.2.0*

### 1/5 — I Reached the End

*2026-07-25, version 3.2.0*

I got to level 871 and the game informed me that I had reached the end.  Weird!  So you only get to play a few levels before getting locked out. Quite frankly I could think of a lot more combinations to have kept the game going.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-04-19, version 3.2.0*

Almost everyday you can guess the correct combination and it say “one away” until you have no more tries and finally the word combinations come up and I guessed correctly. This app is frustrating.

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2025-12-31, version 3.2.0*

It’s the last day of 2025. I haven’t tried to play this game in months or maybe longer. It still doesn’t have any new games to play besides the daily challenge. Terrible app. Very dishonest 
I’m coming back again because not long after I paid for ad free access, the apps started having no more new puzzles except the daily challenge. I didn’t try for weeks to see if there were any new puzzles and I came this morning and still it says I’ve completed all the levels. This is a rip off. It asks to suggest new topics. That’s not my problem. I would like my money back. I can’t believe that there are so many high scores for this app. I admit that the daily challenge can be interesting and tricky, but that has not made it worth it.

### 1/5 — Ads 😩

*2025-10-25, version 3.2.0*

After the first few very simple levels, the ads start after every level. It’s not even challenging before the ads start so I deleted the app.

### 1/5 — Ads galore

*2025-03-15, version 3.1.0*

Too bad you had to ruin this game by forcing ads after every move. Can’t play anymore.

### 1/5 — Use To Enjoy

*2025-03-03, version 3.0*

After I did the upgrade I was told the game required you now have to buy coins, so you don’t win anything. The game freezes often and the grouping of words repeats when you get to higher levels. So I’m deleting it.

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2025-02-27, version 3.0*

### 1/5 — Matches not showing

*2025-02-22, version 3.0*

Please revert the code back before the timer. The app is not working correctly. I have seen a screen record. I can’t enjoy the game any longer. Will update to 5 stars when fixed.

### 1/5 — Ad after ad

*2025-02-20, version 3.0*

This would be a fun game but way tooooo many ads…. No sense playing it. By the look of it many feel the same way and it appears developer in not interested as always the same canned response. Too bad really!!!

### 1/5 — Good for mind

*2024-12-14, version 2.9.1*

Good for mind

It is such a great game. Keeps me interested in playing

### 5/5 — Nice game

*2025-11-04, version 3.2.0*

I like a game that makes me think and this does just that.  I don’t download games that are 4+. I try to get them 17+ for the challenge and this does exactly that.
