Whirly Word SE for Negative User Reviews
✓ FantasticThis is an awesome game you just get stuck to it..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Whirly Word freeI choose not to upgrade to the paid game of Whirly word because of my experience of the free game- I got to a certain level over 130,000 and it all of a sudden went back to 0! The game is so slow and on my iPad it keeps kicking me out! This game has not been updated for over 6 years- disappointed.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Locked RESUMEThe RESUME button locked up. I cannot continue.Version: 1.7.1
✓ Fix the big to make it great!Its so upsetting as it is Such a great game but I keep having issues with it. I find a word press enter and it does not recognise my finding while after giving up and going for the next puzzle it actually shows the same word in the list that I found but was not recognised!!!.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Ads in the wayHow can the app be closed or a new puzzle started with ads placed at the bottom of the app. Stupid, stupid..Version: 1.7
✓ Curate's eggI too, suffered from the discovery that many valid english words are just not recognised. At this stage, I don't play it often enough to feel anger, but just let's say I am ashamed that I waste my time on this level of game. The organisers should recognise words contained in bonafide English Dictionaries and spend a fraction of their day weeding out those foreign words which creep in unmolested. After all, are Latin words exempt? It is, sadly, not at all clear what is acceptable. The Parson's Nose.Version: 1.4f
✓ Limited word listMany common words are not accepted, such as “apnea”, yet accepts acronyms and alternative spellings..Version: 1.6
✓ Addictive but needs improvementsI love this game and play it often, but there are so many things that are annoying. 1. You can't play it and listen to music at the same time. Other game apps can do this why not yours?? 2. Some of the words are extremely outdated, unused and sometimes I think incorrectly spelled. 3. Words that are commonly used today are not there, it's frustrating not to be able to enter words that I find. 4. Some names are words but some aren't, it's inconsistent. Please fix this up for us!!.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Great game, but lags horrendouslyThis is a great game and very addictive, but it lags horrendously and some words are quite obscure (especially shorter words) while common words like 'mist' are rejected. If they fix the lagging issue and maybe highlight missed words better I'd probably give it five stars..Version: 0
✓ Too many repeatsI really like this game but after only a few weeks, I am getting the same words again. Please add new words. I would like to have the option of more or fewer letters, too i.e. levels of ability. These are small but irritating points. Other than that, I love it!.Version: 1.3.1f
✓ BadDoesn't even load right freezes all the time worthless.Version: 1.3.1f
✓ Great design, poor wordsThe game is beautifully presented and and has an interesting spinny control. However some words are from ancient history which really spoils it. I've had to uninstall it which is a shame..Version: 1.3.1f
✓ RepetitiveI love this game but it needs to add new words..Version: 1.6
✓ Whirly WordFun to play but I keep getting the same words constantly, often on the same day. It’s like I’m only offered a few hundred words to play with. A friend has been playing for years and said that rarely happens when he plays..Version: 1.7
✓ OkAs someone else said once you get to 100 games words start repeating. Kind of feels pointless. Maybe make it times or at least more beneficial to finishing off level if the 1st word you get is the 6 letter word. But good game otherwise..Version: 1.3.1f
✓ Word gameThis game is irritating keeps freezing up!!!.Version: 1.3.1f
✓ New wordsPlease add new words!!!! The same words come up all the time!! Thanks K.Version: 1.4.1
✓ RepeatsOnly 10 or so puzzles that repeat over and over. So frustrating..Version: 1.7.1
✓ Fun if you don’t play ScrabbleThis game is fun and challenging, but it does not recognize many acceptable Scrabble words..Version: 1.6
✓ Needs more wordsI’ve been playing this avidly for weeks now, but it’s a useless game as I have completed all the words. It’s the same words over and over again. Any chance of an update with a more diverse selection.Version: 1.6
✓ FakedToo many "words" faked. They simply don't exist. Disappointing..Version: 1.3.1f
✓ Ok but could be betterI like the game but it freezes constantly. Another thing. Sometimes I've tried a word and it rejects it, but at the end of the game that's the word that's missing. What is up with that? Very annoying!.Version: 0
✓ Need new wordsRepeated game after game same words. Nothings changed in years..Version: 1.7
✓ Not enough gamesThis would be a lot more fun if there were more games. Just the same ones over and over..Version: 1.7.1
✓ Not Enough 6-Letter WordsGame play is OK, although I do find it frustrating, as others have mentioned, that when letter is tapped, it does not always register. Also, the dictionary is terrible. But the main problem I have with this game is the EXTREMELY limited number of 6-letter words that make up an individual puzzle. For example, I have worked the “ENGAGE” puzzle at least four times in the last couple of days (out of maybe 50 games played). If more words were added, this would be a much better experience. It could also use a “last word” button to bring up the last word entered. This would help a lot with words ending in “S”. I miss Word Warp!.Version: 1.6
✓ Good at firstAfter playing this game for awhile, it has begun to be very repetitive. I really enjoyed at first, but now it just keeps repeating the same words. I’ll need to find something different ..Version: 1.6
✓ Same wordsSame words over and over and over again....... and since I see the same words advertised on the paid version, not paying to get the same words over and over and over.......Version: 1.6
✓ MistakeYou equate the word tieing with the word tying. The former is not a word according to the dictionary. Some of your words are contractions..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Whirly FewThere are about 15,774 words with 6 letters. This games’ algorithm might be lucky to use 100. In fact it seems to repeat puzzles every few games. Could be good but just isn’t.Version: 1.6
✓ Would like more information on wordsIt would help if this game offered pronunciation of words as well as used in a sentence. Also, add more words or challenges each week..Version: 1.7.1
✓ Needs updatingGreat game, but you just get the same puzzles over and over..Version: 1.6
✓ Whirly wordsWay too easy and repetitious.Version: 1.3.1f
✓ Whirly WordIt is good until you have solved the select number of puzzles. From then on the same puzzles are repeated and repeated, and then repeated again..Version: 1.6
✓ Battery hungry but addictiveBattery seems to drain quicker with this app than many of the first person shooters I have. Missed words should be highlighted better - different colour? Startup and return from multiple tasking takes way too long - especially from multiple task.Version: 0
✓ Tweaking neededI love & am quite addicted to a point. I get bored with the same words coming up, there are no progression levels or achievements and it regularly rejects acceptable words (although the creators are in denial if this!). Otherwise, it's good. But it could be great if it were finally given some attention. Probably a good job though otherwise I'd never get anything else done!:).Version: 1.3.1f
✓ Hate the recent update!I have been playing this game for years- since my first iPhone. A recent ‘upgrade’ added a large number of very obscure words that few people would know- archaic words, rare plant names etc. So now instead of the challenge of thinking of actual words I could conceivably know, I spend half the game jus entering random letters to see if they form somehow for the game recognizes. It’s no longer a challenge it’s just mechanical letter entry..Version: 1.6
✓ Ms.This game was way too easy and got boring really fast..Version: 1.3.1f
✓ Censorship?Censors some existing words like "rape". It's not because it's bad that it's not a word..Version: 1.3.1f
✓ Not for Brits!Just hopeless. Each game will have at least one word not known over here. The only way of achieving a solution is to try random combinations of letters until one by chance hits on the right one. The supplied dictionary will later confirm it is indeed a valid word but it will be unknown to you. A version using the Concise OED would be great but in the meantime prepared to be frustrated!.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Missing wordsMany games the words do not activate Why?.Version: 1.6
✓ Great app. Too few wordsGreat potential but too few words. They repeat a lot..Version: 1.6
✓ Whirly wordDon’t know if I did something wrong but I find that the same set of games play over and over. Need more variety.Version: 1.6
✓ ReviewI like it however words that i have never hear of before always pops up haha great for long bus rides..Version: 1.3.1f
✓ Word list is asinineI had to delete the app when “LIER” was accepted and defined as “a common misspelling of ‘liar.’” No. You do not put non-words in the word list and pretend that because some ignorant people can’t spell, the game should accommodate that..Version: 1.6
✓ Good game BUTLots if words that aren't words.. Eta, ugh, just to name two.. That might be just what sets your game apart from others, but it's lame IMO. Also add a way to see friends scores, and compare/compete..Version: 1.3.1f
✓ So much potentialA good paradigm, but it need more words. Must be less than 40 base words. It has become boring because of that. Also, it often doesn't properly determine which buttons I'm pushing - ignoring some presses and clearing when I didn't press clear.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Irritating but addictive.It's easy to spend way too much time on this game but there are some irritations. For example - using foreign words which are not in common parlance - why? Either use all words from all languages or none except those that have been commonly adopted into English. Use of dialect words, and then defining them wrongly. E.g. " tae" which is defined as a (Scotch) dialect word for "toe". Firstly, Scotch is a drink. The adjective for something from Scotland is Scots; secondly "tae" is dialect word for "to" Not enough different words - the same ones come up again and again. However, annoying as the inaccurate definitions and inconsistent use of foreign words is, it is still a good way to pass time..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Whirly WordI like this game but I sure do not know what dictionary you are using. You use proper names sometimes and ignore perfectly usable words. How about using the Oxford dictionary?.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Say what?Many of the words they used are not even dictionary words they're just abbreviations to things and lots more words that SHOULD be recognized weren't. Irksome.Version: 1.3.1f
✓ Boring gameI must love this game. I find myself playing it all the time, still BORING tho Have noticed there’s no player profile, which is a good thing Wish they had a settings, I’d love to change the music that plays, so I keep my volume turned off Ready wish they update the game with new puzzles & different music.Version: 1.7.1
✓ Fix NeededI’ve been playing this game for years and enjoy it when I’m waiting somewhere, or just have a few moments to play. I’ve always enjoyed it. Now, sadly, the scoring seems off. I guess every word within moment with no whirling and don’t get the “P”uzzle points rewarded only 50% of the time now:( I’m not interested in upgrading. I simply want the Whirly Word APP I e been happy with to be updated. Come on support. It’s been a year since you done anything. Fix what needs to be taken care of for those that enjoy this puzzle game..Version: 1.7.1
✓ Whirly WordILIAC is a word. It is part of the body. My letters were I L I A C S Why is ILIAC not allowed?.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Too many bugsRepeats puzzles, often in the same game. Begins lagging and freezing after a few puzzles, disables the auto-lock on the phone, keeping the screen on and draining the battery. Please work on these bugs, the game would be much more enjoyable..Version: 1.3.1f
✓ Fun. For a bitToo many words that aren't in the dictionary come up. Three letter words especially. Also I can enter a word that doesn't work but then shows up in the list after ending/completing puzzle..Version: 1.3.1f
✓ FlawedHow the heck do you add double letters? This game is crappy..Version: 1.6
✓ Ok for a very short whileIf your vocabulary is full of American slang and you don't mind abbreviations counting as words or some words being misspelled then go for it. It does repeat the cycle really quickly which is a pain. There is no way of finding out what language some of the words are in or what they mean which would make it less annoying. Quite a few real words it doesn't know too..Version: 1.3.1f
✓ Word NutPlease tell me the 5-letter word that will be accepted in ‘jingle’. You will NOT accept ‘ingle’. I’ve been playing this game for a long time - frustrated and about to give up..Version: 1.6
✓ Correct words not creditedThe fun of finding words is shortchanged when words that should be credited ( per the puzzle solution list) are not! Not fair!.Version: 1.7
✓ Needs work!I think this game is really good and a nice little way to pass the time when waiting around. However, I share the frustration of other reviewers in that perfectly acceptable English words that can be found in the dictionary are not recognised during the game. Get this sorted and I might buy the full game. And as for the background music-it is truly, truly awful!!!!.Version: 1.3.1f
✓ Doesn't workSome puzzles are so frustrating because words that I type claim to be invalid yet those same ones are revealed when I give up!!!! It's not a bad app but fur crying out loud!!!.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Lost its appealThis game was fantastic. Whilst I applaud the addition of the dictionary in version 1.4, I'm now totally bored because the same words are played over and over again - and it's a small selection! My only challenge now is to attempt to memorise each round and time myself... How did you lose such a huge chunk of six-letter words??.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Please learn to spell!So many Americanisms and so many words left out or with incorrect definitions..Version: 1.6
✓ Very limited word listWith an extended list of words to draw on this would be a five star game. Unfortunately the repetition of the same few words gets boring very quickly. Also, the option to use a full dictionary needs to be in the front menu, not hidden in the options. A great time waster in the short term, certainly worth the download time. It's just a shame it is limited by too few words..Version: 1.3.1f
✓ What dictionary?Of course it is easy to complete each level when you meet the minimum word requirement. Don't understand how one is expected to know old English words though. par example: hie or hied..Version: 1.3.1f
✓ Many archaic wordsCreated by people who don't speak English. Many archaic words, Scots words, and archaic Scots words! Also some proper names (people) , although it says not. Very random choice of what is accepted and what isn't. Very frustrating..Version: 1.7
✓ FrustratingThe same six letter words come up over and over again - no challenge at all😡.Version: 1.7.1
✓ FunEngaging and fun to a point. Some words aren’t real and some real words aren’t included in the anagrams which can go against the grain a bit..Version: 1.6
✓ Not that greatIt expects some pretty out there words and does not accept some words that it should. Further, it is limited to just 100 puzzles and starts repeating them at that point..Version: 1.6
✓ RepetitiveI enjoyed this game when I first downloaded it, but then I realized after a while that they keep repeating the same puzzles over and over again. It becomes monotonous..Version: 1.6
