### 1/5 — DON’T BOTHER - Still Stinks

*2024-04-03, version 2.8*

I read the reviews, and most are one to three years old, so I thought I would give it a try. Yup, the ads pop up like crazy, so I paid $.99 to have a month of no ads. Yup! The ads are still there. Quite a scam you guys are running. How do I get my money back?

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2024-03-21, version 2.8*

Like the other reviews.. constant ads so I deleted you can play on USA Today website for free ..deleted this already

### 1/5 — Unplayable. Too many ads.

*2023-05-28, version 2.8*

I’m fine with ads but on this app I spend more time watching ads than actually playing. Deleted quickly.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2023-04-21*

I have never been so inundated with ads in the first game of a new app. It’s an affront. It’s taking me longer to write this review than I actually spent playing, and in that short time I was smothered by ads. Go away.

### 1/5 — Liars

*2023-02-28, version 2.8*

I paid for no adds but keep getting them. On top of that there are ads every minute! Jackbutts

### 1/5 — Way too many pop up ads

*2022-10-12, version 2.8*

How many ads can one game force on its players!?  There is a pop up literally every 10-15 seconds while trying play this. This should be a relaxing game but these ads make the game unplayable.

### 1/5 — Can’t play properly due to ads

*2022-08-31, version 2.8*

You can’t make it past 10 seconds without an ad popping up. Had to delete it cause the ads are too much, I’ve never seen a game interrupted so many time while you are playing, it’s impossible to play.

### 1/5 — Liars & Cheats

*2022-08-24, version 2.8*

If you say it costs $5.99 to remove the ads, and I pay you, why do I still have ads? I sent you a request to six this a week ago but there are still copious amounts of ads. There are do many sfs that this game is unplayable. 

Don’t bother with this game, the blocks are too tiny to get with your finger, and there is a very long ad after every second word you enter. Not worth even free. And certainly not worth the $5.99 for non-removal of ads.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2022-07-28, version 2.8*

Ridiculous amount of ads. Deleted after playing only a few minutes.

### 1/5 — So many ads!

*2022-04-25*

Not worth it - so many ads interrupting the game

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2022-02-08, version 2.8*

Ads pop up about every 10 seconds in the middle of a round.  Each ad is 30 seconds.  This game is unplayable.

### 1/5 — Deleted

*2022-01-06, version 2.8*

Had to delete this game as soon as I got it. There’s an ad every 3 seconds

### 1/5 — Ads, ads, ads,

*2021-10-19, version 2.8*

Every time you get a couple words you have to sit through ad, And if you pay for it it’s $6.99!!!!  Doesn’t that seem a little high for a word puzzle game?

### 1/5 — Way too many ads in the middle of playing the game.

*2021-07-25, version 2.7*

I even paid .99 for a month of no ads. Immediately, ads started popping up again. Waste of money

### 1/5 — Ads!!!

*2021-03-30, version 2.7*

Impossible to play. Find a word, watch an ad. Find 2 words, watch an ad. It is a joke

### 1/5 — Con game

*2021-02-18, version 2.5*

I just paid a one time fee of $5.99 to “remove ads forever” and started playing game and 10 seconds in ads popped up again.  I closed out the app and restarted it, same thing.  What a scam!

### 1/5 — Hints

*2020-12-17, version 2.4*

I’ve paid for hints twice, but haven’t gotten any. Tapping the hint button just pops up a request for more money. It’s a ripoff.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2020-11-15, version 2.4*

Deleting this. Can’t even play for 10 seconds w/o numerous ads interrupting . Stinks

### 1/5 — Ads

*2020-11-02, version 2.4*

Ads pop up while you’re swiping letters.

### 1/5 — Review

*2020-09-05*

Please remove the many ads. Impossible to play

### 1/5 — Sux

*2026-06-20, version 2.8*

Total waste. Ads galore. The designer should accept ,euthanasia

### 1/5 — Annoying!

*2026-04-05, version 2.8*

An ad literally every 15 seconds during the game!

### 1/5 — Stolen Money

*2025-12-24, version 2.8*

Crazy number of ads, was annoyed enough to pay for no ads but ads are still there at the same frequency. No way to contact the developer to get refund. Do not download!

### 1/5 — Awful app don’t waste your time

*2025-10-30, version 2.8*

Ads pop up mid game so I purchased 1 month subscription to find that the game does not work. Cleared lines diagonally which didn’t show in score and the columns don’t close up in order to use whole board. Major flaws in game

### 1/5 — All ads all the time

*2025-05-20, version 2.8*

I know ads are a necessity but in the middle of game levels? No thanks that’s just too much of a waste of time

### 1/5 — Too Many Ads

*2025-02-09, version 2.8*

I understand the need to have ads to pay for the game, but having an ad pop up every 30 seconds is ridiculous.  The game seemed like it might be a good one, but I’m going to delete it because I cannot deal with an ad popping up every 30 seconds.  And every 30 seconds is the absolute truth.  I timed it.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2024-12-18, version 2.8*

Four 1 minute ads in first game

### 1/5 — So many ads!

*2024-11-24, version 2.8*

There is an ad pop up every 30-45 seconds. It’s awful.

### 1/5 — Ads are incessant

*2024-06-21*

About every three moves you get hit with another long video ad. Don’t bother. Shame, as the game itself isn’t bad, but not worth the ad pain.

### 1/5 — Worst word wipe program

*2024-06-03, version 2.8*

This program is very poorly constructed. I opted too pay $5.99 to remove ads. Did not happen. There is also clutter at the screen bottom that obscures letters, with no way to eliminate. I have taken immediate action with Apple and my card carrier to remove this charge.

### 3/5 — Updates needed

*2018-01-20, version 1.0.4*

Light colors of graphics make it hard to read the letters. Ads between levels are a bit long. The game itself can be addicting in spite of graphics. Need to update for iPhone - android format is much better in this game!

### 2/5 — Not so good

*2020-03-07, version 1.0.4*

Gave this a go. 
Firstly the background colour and the letter colour are too similar. I have played other games where the letters are better distinguished against the background. 
Second there are not enough vowels to create words, bearing in mind the vast majority of words in the English language contain at least one vowel. 
Third the buttons such as: hints and reset, cover up the bottom letters making them unusable in the game. 
Hence my decision to delete the game.

### 2/5 — To hard to see

*2019-08-30, version 1.0.4*

Light colors and playing board is covered with buttons. You should be able to swipe them away and change the colors of the playing board. Also the buttons won’t deselect once you choose it. Your stuck with your choice it’s kind of disappointing. This could be an awesome game if the developers would work on the bugs first. iwould try it again if they do. Otherwise I’m deleting it.

### 2/5 — Can’t see

*2018-10-11, version 1.0.4*

I can’t see the bottom few tiles, they are covered with graphics. Colors are too light.

### 2/5 — Liked, but too hard to see

*2018-03-12, version 1.0.4*

I enjoyed the game, but the light yellow tiles with white letters made it a challenge to see.
