Whirly Word for Negative User Reviews

✓ Weird wordsLove this app except when I have to quit the game I am playing because I know I have no chance of getting the final word or two due to the weirdness of the words. Are there any such words as hod, rah, spumy, souse, hist? etc etc etc.Vickiann22Version: 1.3.1

✓ Love it, but...Some of the words aren't really words, like "ups"... I mean, come on. The definition was describing the word, "up". The definition for "gates" included the name of the founder of Microsoft. . . Really? But other proper names are not allowed. Also, some of the words refer to things out of ancient cultures...How are we supposed to know those?.HrjdtVersion: 1.6

✓ Bronwag36Great game. Really addictive. I’ve been playing it for years. But it needs a good clean out for (very poor) typos & definitions & old language. This has gotten worse over time. Me_\.FSILVersion: 1.7

✓ Whirly wordJust got the full version of this game as the free one would no longer work. Guess what, this one doesn't work either! Waste of money. The game itself is very good but did not like the ladies sprawled on the bottom of the page with the free version..Give up too hardVersion: 1.3.1

✓ Whirly Word-Sticky with the free versionMany of the same words in the paid version as in the free one. Disappointed..Darling2BMeVersion: 1.4.1

✓ ReviewGreat game , some very challenging words . And some repeats too..!!!Nels 3Version: 1.4.1

✓ Good gameYes, it can seem repetitive, but it is an interesting way to spend a few idle minutes. My biggest complaint is that it includes words from other languages, such as monetary units, foreign guides or nurses and nannies. These rarely are used in common speech unless one is actually *in* that culture. As such, I would argue that they are in fact *not* english words and therefore should not be included in the game..Mika-elVersion: 1.7

✓ Fun app but!This app is great way to pass the time while waiting for whatever, however it does tend to use some obscure words and throws in quite a few acronyms that it counts as words. It is a good to build vocabulary in any case.BalinnorVersion: 1.7

✓ Can’t get help or an answerI’ve been playing this game for a long time. It has given me a word that I cannot solve or even find in any dictionary. I don’t want to end the game, as I have over a million points. The letters are ‘coneee’ somebody help??!!? I’ve tried to contact support several times with no response or contact..RoxplaysVersion: 1.6

✓ Good and very addictive but .........Why does it not accept the words I input only to find them on final list. Also when bought the game I thought I cld then go to rest of levels but it only allows me to do levels 1&2 which is annoying as I cld do that on the free version..WendalexVersion: 0

✓ Solid, Addictive GameThe game is fairly solid, and I’ve had it for nearly ten years. However, I do find the dictionary to be overly prudent at times, and capricious with the slang and abbreviated versions of words it chooses to include. I’m all for it being family friendly, but there’s times where i just seems unreasonable..Go-kart MozartVersion: 1.7

✓ Whirly isn’t all it should beI’ve been playing this game for a few years and have found that certain words are foreign words, yet if I try a commonly used word other than an English word it won’t work. Many very obscure words are Arabic and never used by anyone not fluent in those languages. Too often I try words that are rejected only to find them when I go to the next round. It’s totally frustrating!.FernzhrtVersion: 1.6

✓ Fun but has some issuesAs you play there are many words the game doesn’t recognize. Roy for instance is a synonym for king and where we get the word Royalty. This is just an example also many slang words are in there and others not. It will help pass time but don’t expect it to be the most intelligent game or accurate..Dexter cattleVersion: 1.6

✓ Obscure WordsWhirly Word was fun when you used real words, but I am at a level where you put in a number of obscure words. It is no longer fun. After trying for four days, I go to Whirly Word Cheats to fine these words I have never heard of. Shame on you. I would have given the rating five stars but now only give it three..NothingiputinwillworkVersion: 1.6

✓ Good time waster with reservationsI don’t know what it is but I will select a word, hit enter and it isn’t committed and when I move to the next puzzle there is it as a word I didn’t guess. Annoying. Lots of valid words that should be in the abridged dictionary. Puzzles are repetitive, same word scrambles over and over. A definite lack of variety..SuperShoeDivaVersion: 1.7

✓ Changed my mind on this app!I have used this app for a number of years and gotten lots of family and friends to take up this game also. I keep playing til the light turns green although I may not complete every word, thus my number count is high. I wrote to them to say one of their puzzles does not work, the one that uses maasss. It will not accept the known 5 & 6 letter words. I wrote to them over a month ago but to date no response. Hate to lose my count but am shocked at their lack of response. Why would they not care about what they created?.MJB-2Version: 1.6

✓ Deliberately left out words!This is a fun game, save for the fact that countless words are not included. The creator of this game obviously has fundamentalist religious beliefs. There is nothing pornographic about the omitted words. But, to a little church lady who thinks that “darn” is swearing, some words are considered “sinful.” So, if you’re a Bible thumping, church casserole baking, judgemental person who thinks they’re better than us heathens, then this game is for you!.WHY oh WHY?????????Version: 1.7

✓ Love it! At least i did before it frozeLove this and submitted a glowing review. Today I finish a game, and it asks me to review - and now it's froze! Now that's just not nice....So I'm back to the free app. Fix this please! Oh, and come up with some new letter combinations, even the paid game repeats itself all the time..FelshamVersion: 0

✓ Was great but they broke itThis used to be an excellent game. 5 stars. With the last update you cannot move to the next game if you dint have all the words you have to quit. The whole scoring system was predicated on the fact that you didn’t need to get all the words. Now you do. And frankly, some of them aren’t even in normal dictionaries so that has made it unplayable gor me. I’ll check back from time to time to see if they restore the old version..JvfdkkhVersion: 1.6

✓ Needs update to add wordsI like this game and play it a lot, but’s it’s frustrating that so many actual, common & correctly spelled words are excluded from the solution. The solution should be smart enough to do this.TWR-1Version: 1.6

✓ I rAs wes see d B zero t.MrsFloodle65Version: 1.7

✓ Hmmmm . . .Been playing for years and at times I have thought the word bank has been sketchy, but I have cracked on. However, I had to end a game because common dictionary words (in 3 letter, 5 letter and 6 letter) would not count. The words used to fill the blanks were obscure while commons words would not count. Time to expand the dictionary guys..??junkVersion: 1.6

✓ ContradictoryUses abbreviations as proper nouns - usually the name of scientist. I always thought proper nouns were not allowed in word games. The sound effects are very, very dull and seem to be an afterthought..G-ronimo123Version: 1.6

✓ Can help to pass the timeIt’s a pity that there are a lot of abbreviations that are allowable as valid answers e.g. rep instead of repetition. An English (UK) dictionary version would be an improvement. There is only one form of English and that is UK. All other versions of English are a corruption of the original!.ARW62Version: 1.6

✓ UnsolvableWhen this game started out things worked and I learned a ton of new words. I am at the puzzle with these 6 letters. L I D G E N There is no word between Glide and Lined and yet there is a spot for one. I have exhausted all possible choices and combinations. I have a perfect record so far in the puzzles and do not want to “skip” and go on. If there were a way to attach the puzzle I would. I have written before and nothing happened. I am disappointed in the game for this reason..Perty WomanVersion: 1.7

✓ Addictive!Strangely addictive. Good way to pass time though could do with having more commonly used words or a bigger selection of letters in each game to make decent words rather than piddly 3letter ones I've never heard of! Otherwise, pretty good. Make.EjbugVersion: 0

✓ Excellent but...Great little game?- I just wish you could use your own regions dictionary, US spelling really differs from UK!.SeverusSnape75Version: 1.6
