Sidewords for Negative User Reviews

✓ Needs a tutorialOthers have noted poor instructions. A problem they could easily fix..LongEarsVersion: 1.0

✓ So-soToo many restrictions. Words cannot overlap. I didn’t know what that meant. I watched the tutorial video; it doesn’t help much. Not very much fun to play. Deleting now..Grandma BJVersion: 1.1

✓ It’s OK, BUT...Why is this in portrait-mode only? Useless for iPad with attached keyboard use. Deleting now..BAR112Version: 1.1

✓ No tutorial!Can I rate this zero stars? Figured out how to tap on letters to make words, but I haven't a clue how to place them within the box after I hit the check. I keep getting 'overlapping words', but I don't have any idea how to avoid it. The You tube video goes too fast, also. The only way to contact them is thru Twitter which I am not on. An email address would've been great, also, but nope. A short tutorial would've been a welcome addition. I guess they figured that they didn't need one? Sheesh. No wonder it was free. DELETE!.Leefoo26Version: 1.1

✓ Side words gameI wasted $2.99 of my small income on a game that does not come with directions i tried u tube and the girl in the video couldn't even spell never mind teach you the game. I tried google and nothing. The game just came out saying its a relaxing game and good for your brain. I guess I need a slow motion video for idiots!!!! Zero stars.... How dare you pre advertise a game saying its relaxing , but no instructions??? I want a refund ... You have to know how to give a refund .. Don't you???.MagiepeggyVersion: 1.0

✓ Huh?I just downloaded this game and I have no idea how to play it. The tutorial was no help at all. It doesn't walk you through a whole game. What does "words cannot overlap" mean?.Summerset O'neilVersion: 1.0

✓ Five Stars if I Could Sync :-(This would easily be 5 stars if only I could sync between devices... Otherwise a great little game!.CatsnCoffeeVersion: 1.1

✓ Bit of a learning curve -- but once you figure it out, this game is exTREEMEly satisfying. I downloaded it yesterday and was very frustrated at first: if ever a game was in need of a proper Tutorial, it's this one. And a FREE lite version would be recommended as well. After reading so many rave reviews about its originality, and as a huge lover of word games, I decided to give it a shot. After deleting it twice out of said frustration, I buckled down and just kept doing the first few puzzles over and over, to get the hang of it, seeing what worked, until moving on. Today I completed the Appetizers group, much to my delight..RobbyRogueVersion: 1.0

✓ Very confusingMy mum and I love word games, but this was beyond confusing. Sort of 'got it' before wanting to throw the iPad out of the window, but it was hard work rather than fun. Also uses the screen in portrait mode, which I really dislike as my case stand only holds iPad in landscape aspect. If I'd known this, would never have bought. The instructions are really unhelpful..DracapalleyVersion: 1.0
