Great game

Love the app! Im just having a tough time figuring out how how to challenge people to a game?

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the lovely review! I’m glad you’re enjoying Wordy Bunch, and sorry it wasn’t clearer how to challenge someone. There are three ways to play against others, plus Leagues for an ongoing competition: **1. Ranked matches** Open Multiplayer and choose ranked matchmaking to find another player for a live head-to-head game. Wordy Bunch is still new, so the player pool is small and there may be a wait when fewer people are online. **2. Code rooms - play live with friends, family or colleagues** In Multiplayer, choose Host to create a room, then share the four-character room code. Everyone else chooses Join and enters that code. Once you’re all in the lobby, the host starts the game! You can also stay connected through Friends → Add a Friend. Share your six-character friend code, or enter theirs and have them accept the request. You can then use “Invite friends” from your room’s lobby to invite available friends. **3. iMessage battles - take turns whenever suits you** Open Wordy Bunch from the apps menu inside an iMessage conversation. Start a Word Duel, play your turn and send the challenge. Your friend plays the same board when they’re ready, then sends their turn back so you can compare results. You don’t need to be online together! Group chats also support group duels, with everyone taking their turn within a six-hour window. **Leagues keep the competition going** You can also create a private league for friends, family or colleagues. Everyone plays the Daily Challenge in their own time, and their first completed Daily counts towards the league’s monthly competition. It’s a lovely way to build a little daily rivalry without arranging a time to play together. Thanks again for playing and for flagging this the feedback really helps!

Exactly right, a fantastic word game

I was looking for a word game similar to those I already play, but with more to it, and this is it. I found this by chance but I’m so glad I did. It’s got a lot packed in! In Wordy Bunch, I can play a daily board and see rankings, but also challenge a friend to a match, and also play a solo player, and play all the previous boards, and I can play against the timer or I can turn it off (for the past boards). I absolutely love this, it appears the developer really thought about what the best parts of a word game are, and then created the best version. I appreciate how it’s free, but that I can show my appreciation by paying for a little something extra, it’s like buying the developer a coffee. I have been recommending this game to my friends as I think it’s one of the best out there, and I’ve played a lot.

Thank you! I wanted Wordy Bunch to be easy to get into, genuinely competitive, and free to enjoy, so it’s brilliant to hear those things landed. I’m really glad you’re having fun with it.

A whole lot of fun

This really has quenched my scrabble boggle thirst. We had a lot of fun playing this with the family; it gets really competitive in our household and was great fun at our game night! Some friends joined online from home and the whole experience was seamless. Definitely worth a download.

Response from developer

Getting competitive at game night is about the best outcome I could have hoped for. The part that worried me most was people in the same room and people joining from home landing in one match without it falling apart, so it's genuinely good to hear that held up.
