The app tells you which team’s turn it is. That team selects an actor who must perform without speaking, while the rest of the team tries to guess the word. The actor can skip words if the team can’t guess correctly. Once the timer reaches 0:00, the team earns one point for every correct answer and passes the phone to the next team. The winner is the team with the most points! CHOOSE FROM DIFFERENT CATEGORIES Wordigo offers a wide variety of categories to choose from.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Explode 2 at 4.8 against Wordigo's 3.8. Explode 2 also leads on ratings volume (6.8K vs 8) and chart position (#17 vs unranked). Wordigo's advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 48%) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Explode 2 sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and Wordigo sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Explode 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Explode 2 has 6.8K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of Explode 2's written reviews are positive against 80% of Wordigo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Explode 2 ships an update every 2 weeks, Wordigo weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
