Words of Wonders: Crossword for Negative User Reviews
✓ Disappointing Start.Having downloaded the game I was all set to get started and unfortunately could not get past first base. The game seems to be set up so that the only way that you can start is by inviting friends without asking my permission the app has created a list of all of my contacts and you cannot start the game and you cannot progress unless you send invitations to your contacts. Believe me I do not want my friends to receive invitations to play games. So extremely disappointingly. I have now deleted the app without ever trying to play it because you can’t without sending out invites🙏!.Version: 4.5.2
✓ AdsStarted out fun then you get an ad during the lvl and another at the end, uninstalled.Version: 4.1.10
✓ Not that game I wantedAdvertisement game was not the same I received in the download.Version: 4.5.13
✓ Très déçueBeaucoup trop souvent les mêmes mots. Des mots qui n’existent pas également. Je supprime le jeu à l’instant. Et beaucoup d’annonces.Version: 4.5.13
✓ DishonestI have played this “game?” for several months and on two occasions have been stumped - (even with clues) (not purchased) when approaching the 160 or higher levels. In frustration and by waiting out the time of the adds for Royal Match etc; I received clues to fill the spaces with the allowed letters. Surprise surprise - the answer was flashed into the space and disappeared instantly! It was not a real word! I used every option available with letters provided and consider this a flawed and dishonest app 👎 PS When it works without the above problems it is a good game.Version: 4.5.5
✓ Good game but not what was advertisedI like this game. However, I came across it via an ad from another game. What was shown in the ad. Is not what is in the actual game. This was disappointing. Why is it not what is in the ad? The ad had small boxes with four letter words and you had to “clear the board”..Version: 4.5.18
✓ DisappointedSo I got this game 5 minutes ago and I’m already disappointed. In an add, I saw “If you’re not happy you’re- - -“ and I thought I would like it. But when I downloaded it, I only got like level 6 before I started this review. I agree with a review I saw, this is a BIG KNOCKOFF OF WORD SCAPES. I am VERY disappointed. Either make this game like the adds, or make the adds go like the game. Thanks for your time 😊 Edit- Ok I’m confused now. First of all,thanks for your response. In th we add I talked about, I realized that the add I saw for Words Of Wonder, the video of it was for the Guru version. And I’m positive that when I clicked the add to download it, it said the regular version. So can you please make sure your adds are for the correct app? I’m sorry if you have a hard time understanding what I’m writing, I’m having a hard time describing it. Thank you for your time😊.Version: 4.4.10
✓ Too many adsThe games ok, the ads are a pain coming up after each level and I’m not paying $9.95 to play a game.Version: 4.4.2
✓ Should add more interactive features.Me and several of my friends have been playing this game for a few months now, and we all seem to want the same thing in possible future updates. The ability to add friends and send gems. On W.o.W, you have the option to customise your profile (sorta), but I think it’d make the game more used if you were able to add friends who also play the game. And the ability to send friends gems or sapphires. Overall the game is good and quite addicting, but I think the above would make it better. That’s all, thanks..Version: 4.4.0
✓ In app rewardsNot impressed, I was awarded the gift during the spin for the 3 day free trail but when I accepted it, I got charged $4.99. I cancelled the subscription RIGHT AWAY and I got charged for it. I EVEN contacted the developer of the app and I got no response. If a no star was available, I’d put no star. FIX YOUR GAME.Version: 4.3.5
✓ AddsSince the last update after every level an add comes on and I can’t turn it off to go to the next level, I have to turn off my phone and restart it every level.Version: 4.5.8
✓ Less challenging as the levels get higherEnjoy as something to fill in time. Level of games upto level 100 rather easy and none challenging. Also poor due to reuse of same word in a game by making plural. So boring one games actually included the plural of the same word four times Finally adverts between each level are tiring and boring level Levels above 100 getting easier with much duplication of words. Really must be a very restricted dictionary.Version: 4.5.18
✓ Letter hint button is trigger happyI build up stars for when I need help on a hard one - but in a distracted moment I put my phone down face down without closing the game, or get hold of the screen awkwardly ditto - and bang - the grid is filled with hint letters I don’t need and my stars are all gone. Can this be fixed? Two stage hint process ? Move hint button to mid screen? It’s annoying Otherwise good game Possibly slightly too many words rooted in US tech industry and possibly too many easy layers until you get to the real challenges. But I really really like the background pictures touring around. Thank you for that.Version: 1.9.14
✓ Nothing like the advertI downloaded this game from an advert shown during playing a different game. It showed blocks stacked with words to find in each, and when finding the word the block would be removed from the grid. Nothing like the actual game, which there are many similar to out there and I was looking for something different. Deleted after a few levels as it’s “samey”..Version: 4.5.9
✓ Game is great but annoying adds pop upGreat for your mind but before I can get in the next level an add (the King one). Then after many minutes it lets you play and then again another add about IQ. I was up to Lvl 20 and then deleted the APP as there were too many ads..Version: 4.4.5
✓ Dislike the new updateThe visual updates make it too busy and distracting from the game. The different condensed font as you create words is especially jarring, as is the deep black of the letters compared to a previously harmonious grey. I had played pretty much every day, but after the update, I found it more difficult to concentrate on the game. I’m sad I updated, but likely won’t continue to play with the current design..Version: 3.0.4
✓ Don’t get thisThis would be a fine game, if it wasn’t for them pushing you to pay to get rid of ads. You can’t go to another app without it forcing you to watch an ad. Every time you finish a game you must watch another ad, which I accept. What I don’t accept is when you’ve watched the minimum of the ad, and you try to exit, it starts taking you to the safari app, and then it’ll start taking you to other apps, like youtube or shopping apps. Sometimes it’ll take me through 3 different apps, one after the other. I’ll be deleting this app. I won’t pay when they’re doing this to force you to pay for it..Version: 4.5.9
✓ Too many crashes and loss of bonus typesLove the game but crashes nearly every minute during games, end of games, after or during ads. I swear I don’t get the extra butterflies and things because it crashes before submitting. Not good.Version: 4.1.7
✓ Too many adsWas enjoying this game but around Level 15/16 there were ads after every completed puzzle which ended with me deleting the app due to this.Version: 3.3.0
✓ False advertisingI don’t understand why app developers think it’s a smart thing to misrepresent their app. All you are doing is getting a download, a bad review and a delete. Where’s the “clear the board” game with the little boxes? Only fools with disposable income will keep this with all the ads you have. I get you need money but you would be more successful if you actually provided what you advertise then you wouldn’t need to annoy your customers with all these ads. Considering the brain power needed to create an app one would think you’d have the brain power to know this. Oh and I don’t believe for one minute any of the generic positive reviews. App deleted..Version: 4.5.18
✓ W O W now a scamI play the game fairly, I spin the wheel and watch the adverts. I have played in a few weeks. I played tonight. MANY SPINS! I got the coloured wheel 25 times AND the lighting bolt 4 times. The first spin I got 20 coins then the nonsense began. After my 25 coloured wheel I received 200 coins. There were slots with 350, 790, and multiple other large numbers but I got 200 I encourage you to delete the game if you get more than 3 coloured wheels in a row when spinning. 😡.Version: 4.5.18
✓ Too many inappropriate adsGame itself it great but there’s an ad after every single level and not all of them appropriate. One was for bdsm others for fake diet supplements. I understand they have to show ads to make money, but after every level is extreme and they really should get what they’re advertising when they advertise the game as being suitable for impressionable teens..Version: 4.3.3
✓ WoWLove the game but over half the time playing is spent waiting for ads to finish so I am deleting it!.Version: 3.6.0
✓ Should be called adds of wonder make me rich.You don’t play a game you watch adds. In 5 minutes you will play game a minute and a half and watch adds for three and a half minutes..Version: 4.5.18
✓ The game has too many bugs.Slow to respond (if at all). There are too many similar games to bother waiting while this game catches up with itself making it not worth the bother..Version: 3.7.0
✓ Good I guessHi I already played it but last year I really liked this until I got frustrated of it because once a advert about money to just buy more hints (I am not allowed to use money to purchase) still I really like this game and can you give me a response? I am trying to ignore the money buying.Version: 4.5.6
✓ Very expensive kids gameI thought it was for adults too but apparently not. Too simple for them. All these collection of jewels is childish but, fine, maybe people like it. But all purchases are much more more expensive than in other game apps. And there is constant pressure to buy things. The wheel that you spin to start the game every day to acquire jewels or gems will not give you more than 20, even though the wheel carries at least 2 sections of 25, 40, 50 or 100. I’ve played for 2 months and get 5, 10, 15, only rarely 20. Never more. Probability doesn’t work that way. If you miss playing a day, you have to buy the privilege of playing the missed day even though you paid $6 initially to buy the game. This game is too simple and way too expensive..Version: 4.4.9
✓ Too many addsToo many adds . After every puzzle there is an add, and the game freezes not impressed.Version: 4.5.9
✓ Repetitive. Also it’s a paid app but you get tricked into watching adsYou get tricked into watching ads with no way out. The ads last 1 minute. It’s predatory in my opinion. It transitions too slow between levels. Words are repetitive. Don’t bother.Version: 4.4.3
✓ Jo JoEnjoy this game, getting frustrated because after playing 2-3 games the screen just goes black and won’t restart unless I go right out and start again and then not always..Version: 4.4.8
✓ Quality ControlI don’t understand how you allow ADS that are known to be scams. Additionally, this particular AD has been published with a statement from the targeted Chef imploring people to not be sucked in. The annoying part is the AD appears and goes in circles until a black screen appears at which time you only option is to log out. The AD ratio to playtime is unreasonable and loathe some.Version: 4.4.6
✓ Criteria for excluding word is bafflingI enjoy this word game. Beautiful graphics with amazing photography. I didn’t give the developers 5 stars because words like ‘darn’ are unusable. Look it up in the dictionary people. It is not a slang/swear word. Darning socks may not be done any more, but it was during the Depression, and ever since needles and thread were invented. I detest foul language, but to darn something means to repair fabric with a needle and thread. Use a dictionary for something other than a coaster. Perhaps AI develops the puzzles? ATTENTION: in puzzle 7716 the word erect was not allowed. Why? Used as an adjective it means rigid or upright. An example: The soldiers stood erect with their arms at their side. Also the word is used as a verb…It should take over a year to erect the monument. Get your minds out of the gutter. This word is not offensive..Version: 4.5.18
✓ Gem thief’s / customer support who???I never write reviews but I feel the need to warn others about this app. It’s a fun app, but there are too many others out there that do the same thing you should look into that have better support, and don’t intentionally rip you off. In this game, you get a daily “free” spin to win gems and then you can watch commercials to earn extra gems, which I like to do. I’ve noticed if you land on the lightening bolt (which strikes two numbers on the wheel), it does not add to your gem bank. I’ve noticed it several times and last week, it did it twice on me in the same day. I contacted support, not so much for the gems, but to report that there seemed to be a bug. They responded immediately and asked for screenshots, of which I sent back immediately. Since then, I haven’t heard a thing, even though I’ve reached back out because of the same issue. Today I literally got all lightening bolts totaling 395 gems and nothing was added to my total. I’m done, ridiculous!!.Version: 4.5.2
✓ Scamming spinning wheelI watched 5 adds got the lightning 4 times in a row and last one would of been minimum 350 gems but then it landed on the present which had 30 gems in it I payed for ads aswell and u still get it.Version: 4.5.5
✓ Too limited vocabularyLiked the game to start off with. The main flaw is that the algorithm is too narrow - too easy. You end up playing a game that is endlessly repeating itself due to a tiny pool of permissible words. The spoken English language contains 35,000 words - make more use of them. I appreciate that there is an added bonus for words not included in the grid - but by now, I also know that none of these will ever appear in the grid. Makes for a dull experience as no progress can be made beyond that pool of words and the difficulty level remains static..Version: 4.3.5
✓ Not as challenging as it was at lower levelsI had reached levels where the words were much harder and always formed from 8 letters. This has stopped and gone back to really simplistic words. For a while, there would be easier words and then hard ones again as you reached the end of a section. But now it is all simple words with a lot of repeats, even the set of 7 available letters is sometimes repeated in quick succession. The game has become uninteresting..Version: 2.4.0
✓ Incredibly repetitive and lazyIf you like to play a crossword that recycles the same words over and over and over again, this is the game for you. It’s a basically a crossword, but they give you 5~8 letters to make words out of. After 700 levels, I don’t know how many times I had to put in “hat”, “rat”, “and”, “the” etc… the most interesting it got was the word “dynamic” I regret wasting my time with this lazy excuse for a crossword..Version: 4.5.18
✓ What Happened?Been playing this game for a few months now and then after the last update it wouldn’t even load. Tried deleting and reloading as well as all the other usual stuff but no good. So I’m off to find another time waster which is a shame. This game was ok. . Cheerio!.Version: 4.4.9
✓ Don't buy the ads-free. You will still gets ads.I paid to get rid of the ads on this app so that my son could learn and practice his vocabulary. The ads are now not as frequent, but we are still getting them. And when they come, they are extra long ones that can be a couple of minutes long. Most annoying..Version: 4.5.9
✓ ADSI paid for this game - now I am getting ads!.Version: 4.5.18
✓ Too many predatory adsGame is good, if repetitive - the vocabulary covered in the puzzles is very very basic. Once you progress in the game you get ads after every game. Every game! For every 10 mins spent on the app I’d estimate you spend 2 minutes playing the game, the rest watching ads that you can’t dismiss. The ads make you go into the App Store multiple times before you can dismiss them. So so predatory..Version: 4.4.9
✓ Great Game, Ad Is Stuck Forcing Me to Exit GameHello fugo devs who make Words of Wonder game. I am almost to giving this game 5 stars, but one of the ads is problematic. I just forgot the name of the game in the ad, every time the ad is shown, when it is complete an X is displayed, which usually allows a player to exit the ad and return to game play. Every time I see this ad which features grammar choices to complete sentences, like the user is asked if the word “then” or “than” is the correct word to complete the sample sentence, because they sound the same, but have different meanings. There is more than one game advertised that has this type of gameplay, but the one I am unable to exit is Word Connect 2023. One must exit the game and relaunch this game to return to game play. I searched for another contact method, will change my rating and review when it is fixed, the game is otherwise good..Version: 4.4.5
✓ QuerySo at what level does the game change to the different squares game layout as shown in the ads? Have been playing for a while now and getting a tad bored of the circular disc game..Version: 4.4.9
✓ This is not right!I love this game. However, I just discovered as I did today’s puzzle, three days worth 9/17, 17 and 18 were taken away as if I didn’t play them. So now I have to buy more coins in order to get the credits that I previously won. This is ridiculous and not right! It’s just a way to get more money from me! Also, as I am playing a game, if I click on a hint for 100 points, sometimes they will take 200 points instead. I have been playing for a few months now and luckily have amassed over 20,000 points. Is this a way to make me spend more money because since I have that amount, I don’t have to buy more. I would definitely like an explanation. I would also like to have those three daily games restored or at least give me the coins necessary to play them again. I would love to have written a wonderful review, but if you set my account right I will give a 5 star review when it is corrected. So I just went back to the game and find that four more coins were taken away and now I have only three coins left instead of the seven I had before I wrote this review!!.Version: 4.1.10
✓ It’s okIt’s ok, I’ve been playing mainly on the Train or plane. The biggest issue, it only recognises US English!! And accepts some abbreviations that I guess our cousins across the ocean find acceptable as words. It doesn’t accept some English words I find that a little strange and disconcerting.. would be good to choose between real English and American..Version: 4.5.9
✓ It’s okGiven the number of poorly designed games this is ok. But the issues I have found are the following 1. Too many ads , however they give an option to purchase the game ads free so that’s reasonable 2. Drains my battery within a couple hrs of playing 3. Not very challenging I’m on level 314 maybe it gets harder when you hit level 1000? 4. I’m collecting some stuff I can use like emeralds and light bulbs which is fine. But the rockets are automatically activated when collected which just makes it less challenging. And what are the airplanes for I collect those but can’t find anything they are useful for. 5. The daily challenge is not a challenge all it requires is for you to pay money to play missed days (ex. I started end of second week of January, so once those tokens were used up can’t make those games up without paying) which is fine but calling it a challenge is misleading. Anyway uninstalled due to the above for me others may be fine with it though.Version: 4.3.6
✓ Not Good with Recent Download…I’ve been on this app for quite some time and have amassed many points although just recently I had to delete it due to glitches and download it again. Upon downloading, it wiped out all of my record and points and I have to start from scratch. Therefore, this wasn’t okay at all. In addition, I have paid for removal of ads but this new download was asking for payment again. Thanks a lot, this was a complete scam. Also, with this new download I’ve also noticed how they made it much more harder to gain hammer and lightbulb freebies and replacing it with giving you more points. This was a definite way to keep one using and playing their app more and much longer. Stop scamming users. Your app used to be good. And oh, thanks for wiping out my entire activity. This was a complete waste of time..Version: 4.5.5
✓ Why so many ads?I really do not think that an ad needs to play every time you open the game, shut the game and come back, or finish a level. It makes it extremely frustrating to play the game..Version: 4.5.18
✓ Class addsI keep seeing ads of this game in other websites/ adds and everytime I think it’s a different game I come to the App Store to download only to find out it’s the SAME GAME. Like all the ads of this game look nothing like the ads Also why is there an ad every 2 seconds.Version: 4.5.2
✓ Too many adsDeleted as soon as ads were shown after every round from level 20 waste of time.Version: 3.7.1
✓ Word gamesThis happens all the time to me. I see an ad that looks interesting, and it turns out the game is nothing like the ad. I don’t wanna play just another crossword. In the ad, there was a whole rows and rows of letters that you couldn’t see, only the bottom row was visible, and the point was to make words with these letters and clear all the letters in all the rows. Of course coming here to get the game, I find it’s nothing like that. You really have to check. It is extremely rare that an ad that I have seen, and then downloaded, that the game is anything like the ad. It’s a waste of time. Some of the games are good. So why don’t you just advertise them for what they are instead of some crazy game that we are never ever gonna see? Please stop wasting my time with games that don’t exist. Thank you..Version: 4.4.9
✓ Used to enjoy but..Please stop catering the game to children, even if you don’t want to put less family friendly words in the main crossword at least let us get bonus words! A lot of the words that were removed are double entendres anyway. You could easily have another game for kids if you desperately need to appeal to everyone..Version: 4.5.8
✓ So many ads!Fun but so many ads, and they’re very long ads. It gets really annoying and ruins it..Version: 4.5.9
✓ Love WOW but….I play games a lot. This was one of my top games until I ran out of sapphires the first month. I have been playing 4 months, now. So, if I miss one day on the daily challenge, I cannot go back to it, even if it’s in the same month. I even played the wrong puzzle rushing one night and skipped a day. I started to do an in game purchase but decided to wait to see how the sapphire replacement occurs for free. Once, I realized there is no way to renew them for free. I decided to just spend my time on the game on the daily challenge. Initially, I was hooked. To me, it stimulates my thought processes, lol. But once I figured out, I have to spend money not because I want to but because that is the only way to complete the missed daily challenges (in the same month), it became easier for me minimize game time. I am not able to get sapphires when I spin, in prizes or daily rewards. FYI: I don’t mind spending money in games. The creators have to get paid too; however, I like to make it feel like I want to not have to..Version: 3.7.3
✓ Not the game that’s on the adNot the same game and hating all the ads. Might as well do the crossword in the paper..Version: 4.5.9
✓ SadI downloaded this game when it barely came out, I played for a long time and in the end I deleted it because it always uses the same words, they don't add new words and you end up getting bored, many years passed and I downloaded it again thinking that it had changed (by the way I lost my progress on facebook and I don't know why) Well, it turns out that it's still just as boring, same words, they still haven't added new words and therefore I had to do this review, the game is good but it's a shame that in years only a few things have changed but The most important thing is not the words. finally I will have to delete it again.Version: 4.4.8
✓ False advertisingCompletely different game to what’s shown in the ad for the game..Version: 3.7.3
✓ Play without wifi to avoid adsThe game is good but the ads drive you crazy and ruin your gaming enjoyment so everyone please play the game without wifi. There is also a bug for the words you have formed. I have encountered various times where the my words went into the 'extra word' section...only for that same word to appear in the crossword puzzle when I try it again later. Hints cost too much so anyone who needs some hint should use an online word generator. Other than that, the game is good..Version: 1.9.11
✓ HmmmToo easy and too many ads. App deleted..Version: 4.3.1
✓ Annoying adsThe one thing that stops me from giving 5stars is the same irritating ad coming up after each game and playing more than 30 secs. I feel that you’re trying to force feed it to me I’ve tried it and hated it.. I often give up after a few games because I’m sick of seeing it. If we have to have ads let’s have some variety and surely 10secs is enough..Version: 4.5.5
✓ Review of the gameI like this game but the ads are just too much, I understand they are needed and don’t mind some ads but every 3 games you waste 30 seconds before you can play again is a bit over the top. Sadly your game is not the only one, day after day I try new games and then several hours later have to delete them as I just can’t waste that much time on ads, sad to have to leave but that’s the way it goes when too much focus is given..Version: 3.7.1
✓ A poor copy of wordscapesThe ads for this game are nothing like the app store screenshots or what gets installed. I'm disappointed..Version: 4.1.12
✓ Not Very ChallengingI'm up to Level 65 in 2 days and were it not for the copious amount of adverts, I'd be much further. It's simply not that challenging for anyone with a half decent vocabulary. I could be cynical and say that the reason it's so simple is to generate ad revenue; after all, anything a little difficult would deter the average player..Version: 4.5.5
✓ Horrible advertsWhile the game is ok, it gets interrupted by the adverts non stop. But what’s even more infuriating, all those ads feature either men who are kings and nights, OR abandoned beggar women with kids on brink of freezing to death. Come on, all the female characters in those games are poor abandoned victims who beg for scraps (and that’s the gist of the game- if she scraps enough coins, she survives) and all the male characters in the games advertised are kings and knights who just gain more riches and glory. It’s revolting. Seriously, think..Version: 4.4.5
✓ Pos advertisingCan’t mute , won’t tell you how long is left and then opens App Store. So downaload this garbage and leave a proper review..Version: 4.5.8
✓ Way too many adsI get that you’re trying make money from a free app but this is ridiculous. Game. Ad. Game. Ad. Game. Ad. On and on. I waste more time on the ads than the game. I’d be more likely to buy something if you didn’t push so hard. Deleting now….Version: 4.5.18
✓ Good game, but drains your battery quicklyFun game, but uses a lot of battery..Version: 4.5.18
✓ Not what was advertisedDon’t understand this at all. Was playing Word Cookies and this game came up as an ad. Looked challenging (hate games that are too easy) so I clicked on the ad and downloaded the free version right away. Game is not AT ALL what was advertised. Just the usual “crossword” type games that are readily available. At least the ads aren’t toooo onerous in the free version (have tried others where they show you a new ad after pretty much every level). Quickly went through 50 levels and just too easy. The “travel” aspect ads a bit of interest vs the usual crossword game, but I’ll probably delete as this is NOT what was advertised. (Ad showed letters on “cards” laid out in multiple rows/ columns. You supposedly drag the showing cards off to form words, revealing new cards and you’re supposed to try to clear the board. That looked fun. Wish this was that.).Version: 3.4.5
✓ Words of WondersThis game drains my battery faster than it can charge. It frequently freezes the screen. No response to touch for several minutes to several hours-sometimes frozen overnight. I got a new phone and these problems persist. But when it freezes now it only freezes this game. My phone can still be used for calls and texting. With the old phone (same model) the entire phone was frozen; nothing would respond until I did a reset- mores than turning the phone off & on. I’m going to remove it. Can’t figure out all the icons. There’s a blue circle with a “W” embossed on it. Started with 3 then suddenly have 1. Pressing it only allows me to purchase more of other icons. Same with the fireworks. Can buy more icons. Haven’t figured out the races. As a college graduate I think I should be able to figure out a few games..Version: 3.7.0
✓ Half the lexicon was removedWas playing well until an update removed half the lexicon. Now it’s impossible to make words like ‘darn’ for some reason. And anything that might seem offensive to someone like the word ‘orgy’ has been removed. Darn is not a swear word, it’s a style of knitting to fix holes in clothes. The game is no longer enjoyable because half the dictionary is missing due to someone’s ultra conservatism and ideas of morality. Bring back the entire dictionary..Version: 4.5.8
✓ SlowI’m loving this game,but it takes ages to load,ages to get your points after each advert. Then freeze’s when you try to make the words!! It really stresses me out,so I won’t be playing until these are sorted out..Version: 3.7.0
✓ Disgusting advertisingSomething needs to be done about the advertising on this game. Kids play these games. Showing scenes of a female holding a baby being beaten up and her supposed husband leaving her and the baby is disgusting. But mostly it’s the violence against women depicted here that needs to stop..Version: 4.5.9
✓ Paying for NO ads still having to see adsWe are paying for Apple One Premiere family plan. Which states NO in app ads. There were no ads for the first 5 minutes in and the app asked for a review a gave 5 stars and as soon as I did the ads started one after the other after the other. We are NOT paying Apple for a subscription to Apple Arcade to still have ads pop up. NO NO NO! We both will be uninstalling. We will be making Apple aware. UPDATE After developers response: If it’s not part of Apple Arcade family plan, Why is it showing in there? Why did the developer send me an email to my email address but the email doesn’t have my name own it at all. The email you sent to me has the owners name of the family plan which I am on? How did you get his name? Why are you sending me an email with someone else’s name at the top? We have two separate Apple ID’s, two separate email addresses but you somehow combined his name and my email address….Version: 4.5.18
✓ From great to not so great!This game started out to be one of the best! This last year they made some major changes in the points and gifts that are very disappointing. One of the new changes is that it no longer keeps track of your bonus words past 20. If you don’t keep your eye on how many you have and empty it out at 20, it won’t keep track so you can lose a lot of bonus words. Another change is that the butterfly that goes up to the top of your game and has a timer on it that when it goes off gives you a gift — it only gives you 10 or 15 points. It used to give you way more points and hints!! These things are pretty important and not improvements! 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼.Version: 2.4.3
✓ Way too many ads. The ads ruin it.The ads are horrible. Very long and multiple steps to get through them. ASI way too frequent. I mean I open the game and get an ad. The game is okay but often repetitive. Some words it does not recognize and it uses abbreviations occasionally..Version: 3.7.3
✓ Broken AppI tolerated with the ads after each level, but draw the line at level 139. Four letter word, starts with R, 3rd letter c. Options are i, k, t or s…I tried Rick, nope, it put it in my “Extra Words” list as NOT BEING A WORD IN THIS LEVEL. So I tried every other combination and eventually gave in and bought the missing two letters. One guess what the word was…RICK. Seriously, you have one job people. Done, done, done. How can you trust the app?.Version: 4.3.3
✓ Limited vocabulary used in puzzleI like this game will probably delete it soon because it isn’t quite what I wanted. I wanted a fun brain teaser (like the NYT spelling bee), but unfortunately 1- it takes too long to complete enough levels to have the puzzles be remotely challenging. I wish you could place up faster to get a challenge (3 letter words are still sometimes allowed in my games - and I think I’m on level 100?). 2- the vocab is inconsistent and limited. I’ve seen “June” as a possible word, even though it is a proper noun, but “moth” not included in the puzzle. Again, I download this app to expand my vocab and work on spelling words from a subset of letters, and I find it very lame when half the words I find aren’t included in the puzzle, AND I have to find 3 letter words. Plus putting up with more time spend on adds than doing puzzles, deleting this app..Version: 4.3.9
✓ Ads, Ads,AdsAfter putting up with your ads for 122 levels, I’m now going to delete the app. Your ads are horrendous. The “reward” for completing a level - yep, you guessed it…… another ad. If I wanted to play royal match or any of the other games, I would download them. Such a shame too because the game itself is good fun. Bye..Version: 4.5.8
✓ Un-Responsive Customer ServiceWhy do you keep responding to these reviews with the same response that answers nothing? Your answer never specifically addresses the specific problem. It is always a bland response to everyone! One star because 1- it was NOT at all the game advertised and I hate it when developers mislead potential players with false ads and when developers IGNORE the player who questions this by refusing to address this underhanded advertising and 2- no one has responded to my help request….not one word! I had several concerns/ questions for the development team so I contacted them through “help” in the game. I have tried three times to get a response to no avail. Their silence speaks volumes. I have played just under 200 levels with just one ad, but I am sure they are coming. I cannot fully review without experiencing how they professionally use ads….how many, how long, how interrupting and last, but certainly not least, content. If they try to explain away ads as the responsibility of a third party, I won’t buy into the excuse. I have seen signs of this in some reviews and always always the money-grab offer to buy an ad-free version, which we all know will not be ad free. The developer cannot pass off bad advertising on someone else. It is ultimately their app, their brand, their name, and so the responsibility for what happens under that name falls to them..Version: 4.4.5
✓ Great for mind. Love word gamesLove the word game itself. There is a bonus wheel at the beginning of every day, which is the opportunity to win more points. Mmmm! let’s just say, “Wow, what a coincidence!…The wheel more often than not, spins to the lightning strike, which increases the numbers on the wheel…. but constantly either goes to the lightning strike or the bonus wheel which asks you to pay five dollars to spin…. eventually, the last spin always lands on the lowest amount or on the treasure chest which is only 50 points. Sad to say, I’ve just wasted six or seven minutes watching continuous advertisements… to win 50 to 100 points. The wheel actually has many other great options to land on, but it always avoids those greater amounts! i’ve written to the app developer a couple of times about this. Frustrating, happens every day!.Version: 4.1.6
✓ Glitchy and zero customer serviceThe app is great for brain training, however every now and then it can be very glitchy and annoying. It is glitchy at the moment, to the point that you can hardly use it, due to the letters not working when you choose them at times. I used up some of my diamonds last night due to a glitch, as it wasn’t registering letters I was choosing, and next thing I know my diamonds have been used when I didn’t want them to be for a clue!! I’m not sure I can continue using if it continues like this, and no one responds to my feedback on customer service- what is the point of having the option of you have to resort to putting a complaint on a review? Also, the sounds are all glitchy. Sort it all out, please!!.Version: 3.6.5
✓ Enjoyable gameI did enjoy playing this game. Lots of adverts, but it’s free & they gotta get money from somewhere! What’s made me delete it is it’s seems recently this game has become an absolute battery drainer. Battery health seems fine according to the phone diagnostics, and no other game or app drains power like this game - so sadly it’s in the bin. However the developer responded to my review re battery draining saying they’re working on the issue I’ll definitely reinstall if there’s an update that deals with the issue as I do enjoy the game itself..Version: 4.3.3
✓ Too easyI am up to level 463 and the words are still so predictable. I know I play a lot of word games but this is not challenging enough! I am getting RSI from all the swiping.Version: 4.1.5
✓ Kind of over itThis game crashes a lot, esp when extended play. Also there are times it just won’t load (like now). The last time it wouldn’t load was because of an update so I came to check to see if that was the case but nope. The ads are also pretty invasive. After each solved puzzle and when you close it they actually open. So you have to close out of the App Store app to get back to your game. The only reason I put up with it so long is because of how much I’ve accomplished but I think it time to call it a wrap. It’s been a long time coming. When it’s more problems than payoff…it’s not a game I would recommend. Update: So I received a comment from the developers asking me to send info about the game that won’t load. But as a back up I saw the email from another customer response so I emailed them the day I posted my review….nice follow up. Still no answers. I am removing another star. An comment to the review but not the email..Version: 3.6.2
✓ Not as advertisedI downloaded this from an ad on disney tsum tsum because it was promoted as a set of blocks of four letters each that you found the word within and then as you found the word the block would disappear. I was looking forward to it, but this is NOT that game and it's super disappointing because this is like every other word game i see ads for. boring. i'm going to delete it. It's also discouraging to see the same responses from the developer team that never address the concerns that people give, they're just stock replies to people who are justifiably annoyed that they downloaded something that was not as advertised, so no, I'm not staying tuned and I'm not altering my review because you gave me some rote response..Version: 4.4.8
✓ Won’t work after updateJust updated, but freezes when opening. Was having trouble with the app before this, was hoping the update would help. Would like to access this app again if possible..Version: 3.4.2
✓ Sooooooo slloooooowwwwwwTakes 30 seconds to pass a level then 5 minutes to get to the next 30 second level. I understand it’s supposed to be relaxing but you loose interest after the first 10 puzzles. There are sooooo many better options exactly the same as this game. DELETING!!!.Version: 3.7.0
✓ Too many addsI will say that there are not as many adds as I have seen in other places. So at first it wasnt bad HOWEVER the interactive adds are atrocious you can skip them with a >>> sign BUT it takes you to a “get the app” page where you have to wait for the “x” button to load. And then when you click that the add pop up will appear. Also there are pop up ads too!! Its just too much and is a pain. I enjoy the prize wheel for daily prizes BUT i landed on two spaces which did jot reward me but instead informed me about opportunities to join the app’s club. Most disappointing was the golden wheel spin which I landed on took me to a different prize wheel which underneath the spin button said “for 2.99 USD” I understand needing to make money but this is in poor taste. The user should have to pay to spin on what they landed after watching an add for a free spin in the first place. As for the game itself it is enjoyable and the travel aspect brings an interesting vibe. overall i gave this a three star because of the obnoxious adds..Version: 3.5.2
✓ IssuesI’ve been playing for a while and I’m over 3600 levels in. This is an updated second review. My main issue is when I get a butterfly and the timer is running, any butterfly gained after is a waste. Butterflies should stack and offer larger prizes instead of being wasted while the timer is running. The timers are a bit long to begin with and having to wait or spend money to get them faster is lame. Secondly, I’d like the feature where you’d get extra stars each level depending how well you did to come back. At this point in the game it takes 28 levels to get 28 stars to get a punny prize. I’d like that to come back.Version: 4.1.5
✓ I was loving this game until the latest updateThe developers have decided that words which can be interpreted as perhaps not family friendly are unacceptable. This includes words such as woody, (as in an abundance of trees in an area) erect (as in how buildings go up), gay (as in keep the Yuletide gay) - really! If they want adults to play they will have to have an option to use a full dictionary or some bowdlerised version for infants..Version: 4.5.6
✓ Good game but having issues!I like the game but find it has too many bugs that cause it to lock up (on IPhone 12). Randomly when playing it offers tips or bonuses and there is no way to clear these pages without using up resources or restarting the app. When spinning or playing ads it locks up and again requires a restart. It’s a shame but these faults make it unplayable so deleted 😞.Version: 3.6.2
✓ Too many adsAds are non stop and very long. You will lose patience with the game quickly..Version: 4.5.9
✓ Une multitude de publicitéDommage d’avoir autant de pubs car c’est un jeu intéressant. Payer 7,99$ pour s’en débarrasser … non merci !.Version: 4.5.9
✓ Terrible ads on a decent gameThis game is pretty typical of the letters in a round style games that are everywhere right now. I like the “travel” concept for the levels of play, and that you get points for all the MANY words you can make that are not in the puzzle. It is strange how many words you can make that are not in the puzzle. Maybe a theme for each game which connects which words are used would be clever (hint hint). On the other hand, ads interrupt ever second or third round and they are TERRIBLE!!! Truly the worst ads I have ever experienced!!! My game is actually frozen on an ad that won’t go away right now. It takes about THIRTY SECONDS for the way to clear the ad to pop up, and sometimes you need to hit the little x 3-4 times to make the ad go away. I will start hunting for a different game today that isn’t so ridiculous about this because the ads have ruined all the fun. Loss of all 4 stars is because of ads.Version: 1.9.14
✓ Not Apple ReadyThis is a fun game. BUT it is low, out of synch and doesn’t play friendly with other Apps, like Signal, WhatsApp or even incoming phone calls. The advertising is SO SLOW to load and exit and so frequent and repetitive that it literally kills the fun of the whole game..Version: 4.5.5
✓ AdsI understand advertising but seriously the higher you go the more frequent they are. Not to mention lengthy and constantly try to trick you into downloading, shame on you. Ads every second level, ran me off fast..Version: 4.1.13
✓ Nothing like the adThese games are so simple that they are boring, nothing like the game in the ad that prompted me to download it in the first place. I hoped they would get more challenging but I’ve reached 90 and they’re still the same so I’ll have to delete it and try to find something else..Version: 4.4.4
✓ Spinning the wheel is uselessEvery time you get 5 chances to spin the wheel to get bonus you don’t ever get high bonuses even though they are on the wheel. I spin it and have to go through 30seconds of adds 5 times and you only ever end up with low points. Very annoying and makes it not worth watching the ads.Version: 4.4.10
✓ Rigged Money ScamI love the game, I love the challenges and the competing against other people, and I absolutely love ❤️ the daily puzzles, but unfortunately, the game is a rigged money scam🤯😤. So you have like a limit of times you can spin the daily wheel 🛞, I think it’s like 7 or something. But anyway, the numbers go up each time you spin, so say I get 15, after I get it, it resets and turns into 45, so I spun the wheel enough times to where all the numbers are at like 100 and something, but after that, I spin it again and it takes me to a different, special wheel, but you need $3 to spin it, even though it has higher rewards, who’s parents buy that for them? So if I get the wheel and I don’t pay the $3 to spin it, they give me another chance to spin to supposedly get something different, mind you, it gave me that same $3 wheel 5 TIMES IN A ROW, so I just keep getting another chance, and they’re doing that so that you get so annoyed that you just keep getting that same wheel, it makes you buy it, even as an adult, if you like stimulating word games, I advise you, get this game, just be very careful spinning the wheel so you don’t fall in that spiral of a money scam..Version: 4.4.8
✓ Too many adsDownloaded this game, played for a while and really enjoyed it. However, the ads were just too much So many ads what each one last almost two minutes and it is impossible to get rid of them once the ad finishes Shame as this Ian a good game but more ad time than actual play time.Version: 4.4.10
✓ Not satisfied!I started playing this game and loved it. But the ads kept annoying me. I decided to pay $9.99 and the ads still kept coming up. Not happy about it. Please remove the ads or refund my money..Version: 4.5.0
✓ Too much adsNice game but too much of ads, an ads or two per game is good but not like series of ads during a game or in the middle of game; too much ads re also doesn't let the user fully understand the game and its flow, taking it off the device!.Version: 4.5.9
✓ GlitchyJust installed this. Slightly older IPad but running latest IOS. Battery runs hit, the app can be really slow and crashes. Locks itself into adverts requiring you to close the app and start it again. Like playing it but it's really annoying. Will probably end up deleting it!.Version: 4.5.18
✓ 5 star Potential Except..Battery Hog & Sound Goes In/Out....but still addicted to this game. 1. Game DOES NOT GO TO SLEEP MODE on either my iPhone or iPad, thus the battery problem. You must manually close game or screen, or the screen will stay on constantly if you happen to walk away for extended period. 2. Sound constantly goes in and out, seems to be when ad pops up at bottom of screen. It’s confusing when sound drops because game gives audio signals for board-accepted words, previously used words either in bank or on the board, or for unrecognized letter combinations. So when sound goes out, does it mean it’s previously used or I inadvertently fat fingered an unacceptable letter combination..so I repeat the process. If these 2 problems could be addressed and fixed, this game could potentially be a 5 star game. As I said.. ‘addictive’..Version: 1.9.11
✓ Please stop rigging the spinThis is a decent game but why do you bother rigging the spin??? If we have to sit through crazy long ads at least let it be truly random. It’s crap like this that spoils good games. Please stop it. !!!! UPDATE: I’m sure these developers think we’re all stupid. Your answer is so ignorant you shouldn’t have bothered. I do the spins every morning. it’s always the same. The lowest. Please don’t treat people like idiots. Random HA !!!!!!.Version: 4.5.5
✓ Would have given 5 stars but……..Good game but sadly I paid £4.99 to have ads removed and whilst the pop ups have stopped, if you select the third card offered or spin the wheel and others you still get ads tempting you to play (buy) other games and once the ad starts playing you have to wait until it has finished to get rid before you can continue with the game. Also I have no idea what the rockets are for and can find no information about them. Have requested a refund..Version: 3.6.0
✓ What dictionary do they use?It's frustrating to form a word in the English dictionary only to have it rejected. It's one thing if it is not part of the puzzle; however, to have a word rejected completely is ridiculous. Especially when they reject a root word, but accept a different tense of the word. I entered "Pend" and it was rejected; however, "pended" was accepted. How is that possible? This is NOT the first time this has happened. I wrote to the developers and got a "thanks for your comment" form letter back. Also, I have noticed when I "tap claim" to get my prizes, they are not being added to my counters. I have earned multiple light bulbs, fireworks and emeralds; however, they are not being added to my tallies to use during play..Version: 4.4.8
✓ Not as expectedSaw this app when I was playing another game. Didn’t turn out as I expected. Couldn’t distinguish between some adverts or game parts. Was this due to glitches? Didn’t like all the jewels and add-ones. Too much going on. Have deleted app and would not recommend..Version: 4.4.5
✓ Won’t even publish this review!!!! Worthless!!!Not worth itEnjoyable game BUT…even after paying to play ad free, there are still too many ads to get any points. The “spins” require watching ads to get points. The spins are also rigged to landing on another spin slot that requires payment. Even if you hit a slot that doesn’t require payment, the points are minuscule. It’s impossible to get enough points to use for one or two games. Then you’re stuck watching ads if you’re in a time frame that allows you to spin again. Could be a good game but the hoops you have to go through to get anything make worthless. Not worth the hassle. Additional complaint about this worthless app. Yet another way the game is rigged. What’s the point of having a final reward if you make it so completing EVERY daily PUZZLE still doesn’t give reward???!!!!!!???? That’s WRONG!!!! You don’t allow a player to use those points on the next month. Worthless game that is rigged in so many different ways. It’s enjoyable but the way you’ve rigged it makes it frustrating and extremely disappointing to play. As much as I like the puzzles, I’ll delete this game because of the way it’s rigged. Also, your “response” to my first review was as worthless as this game so don’t even bother!!!.Version: 4.5.0
✓ Entertaining or a pointThis was one of those games that would keep you entertained in bed on these long winter nights. However, I have just deleted it because of the amount of ads you have to watch. I man, it’s literally one ad after every single game. Apparently you can pay £5.99 for an ad free experience. But after reading the small print, it states you will still get ads as part of the game. Which technically means that the no ads promise isn’t exactly true..Version: 4.5.6
✓ Fun conceptI like the idea of this, & i don't mind watching ads or vids since i am usually doing multiple things at once & can just let it run itself out & carry on, & sometimes the ads are even kinda entertaining, if weird but my big issue is that the ads come increasingly frequently til it's after every lvl AND the ads themself seem to eventually lack any way to exit out (no X button, just an arrow >> for downloading) this leaves me stuck with no way to return to the game screen, thus literally unplayable after a little while by lvl 20 & not even a reload helping, i got bored & i gave up maybe it's just user error, or maybe also consider less holding users hostage for downloads/ads p.s. i did like that you could earn the premium blue coin & green diamond currency if slowly; there's just not much to spend on? & also zero explanation of what the green diamond currency is even for i also liked all the background cards & collecting those as i advanced in lvl; i wish more of that kinda thing in games was a thing anyway thanks have a good day.Version: 4.4.5
✓ Same as all the other games nowWell it’s really too bad all of the games are like this now. This one’s pretty good, it allows you to play 16 levels before it adds a commercial every other level. you think you actually found a good honest game but you didn’t, they’re gonna ad you to death after they trick you into thinking they won’t. $9.99 for this game is far too steep. If you want $2.99 for the game fine. they also encourage you to review it prior to level 16 so I’m sure many of these reviews saying there are no ads just didn’t get that far yet. I would never pay 10 bucks for this remedial game. unfortunately where these people have it wrong is that they’re absolutely insane if they think I’m going to start paying $50 a month on game apps. I lived my life before these games and I will live my life without them. Deleted..Version: 4.5.14
✓ Good gameThanks for creating such a wonderful game!.Version: 4.5.17
