### 3/5 — Beautiful pics

*2025-10-10, version 2.20.5*

I wish I could mute all the sounds without having to silence my phone because there are places I go that I don’t want people hearing my phone. I know it’s annoying. I hate hearing other people’s phones in a public place.

### 1/5 — Just crashes

*2021-11-12, version 2.20.5*

Loaded it twice, will not open, just crashes

### 1/5 — Too easy too many ads

*2020-11-12, version 2.20.2*

Play one stupidly easy level and then sit through an ad. Don’t bother downloading.

### 3/5 — review

*2020-11-02, version 2.20*

Please fix the game crashing..I play this one every year.Thanks!.☕️☕️

### 1/5 — What’s With all the Ads?

*2020-07-26, version 2.16*

As soon as I downloaded and began playing this game, the ads began popping up. The most I have ever experienced. Suggest u not download this game unless u don’t mind the annoying ads.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2019-12-10, version 2.16*

Once you begin the search the game is interrupted with ads that repeat, repeat, repeat, etc.

### 3/5 — Remove ads!!!

*2019-12-08, version 2.16*

I paid last year to have the ads removed and they are back this year!   Please remove them or issue a refund.

### 2/5 — The game itself is good but

*2019-12-08, version 2.16*

There are way too many ads. I’m really fast at word searches, so even at the hardest level, these take me less than a minute. That’s means I’m having to sit through at 15+ second ad for every 50 seconds of game play. That’s not an acceptable ratio. It make it impossible for me to stay and enjoy the actual game. I get that there has to be ads in order to keep the game free but they are way too long/frequent

### 5/5 — Love

*2019-11-27, version 2.16*

I love this game it’s very relaxing and the music is very calming, just wish there was more than two songs for the game . 😘

### 3/5 — Great Game, but...

*2019-04-15, version 2.16*

I love this word search! Except... the ads are looong, intrusive, and actually drain my cell battery. Most of us get that free games require ads so they’re free to us. But I’ve never encountered such awful, and occasionally offensive, ads! Having said all that, I’m keeping it for now because it is fun, and perhaps they’ll make changes. Btw, I don’t care for the timer, but it’s not a big deal.
