✓ Word DetectiveThe game title and description said it would have a mystery to solve-LIES!!! Game is so boring and easy that you can't even call it SOLVING the word puzzles. Want my money back also!.Version: 1.1
✓ Word detective.This game is misleading. No sound or music whatsoever,there is no detective storyline as it makes you believe,not worth the 2.00 price barely worth 50 cents if that. DONT BUY!! There are better word search games out there..Version: 1.1
✓ Word findGood word search game, just wish it were a little harder. A lot of the words are in the same direction, and easier to find because if it. Worth the $ though!.Version: 0
✓ Too easy and with misspelt wordsIt's not challenging enough for anyone over 10. Also it contains lots of non words and misspelt words..Version: 1.1
✓ BummerAs a word search, I actually like, but it was a disappointment in that I (like many others) expected a mystery type game, not a word search..Version: 1.1
✓ Good for little snipsOf time. However, it's really bugging me that academic is spelled wrong. Twice, so far. Misspelling in a word game? Seriously?.Version: 1.1
✓ Word detectivePathetic.Version: 1.1
✓ Not recommendedA flipping wordsearch!! Disappointed really boring, I was led to believe it was something different.Version: 1.1
✓ Not what was expectedWordsearch and nothing else.Version: 1.1
✓ Could use some more polish ...While it does what it’s supposed to, it looks a little drab. Suggestions: 1. The word list doesn’t sufficiently contrast between those words that have been used, and those which have not. Perhaps the ones that have been used would be plain and gray, while the others would be bold and black. 2. Allow user to change fonts, at least one being a sans serif font. Also, it’s not clear what the difference is between the HD and non-HD versions..Version: 1.2
✓ Very DisappointedNot good. The words within the puzzle were not creatively hidden.... Seem merely lined up in a row. Plus there are multiple puzzles within the same category name, ie types of trees, and there is way too much repetition of words. Why?! if there are a bazillion tree names, why should we be finding the same words ever? No timer. No tricks. No creativity..Version: 0
✓ Word DetectiveI am very disappointed with this game. It seems very juvenile, has no challenges, More info. Is needed re: how this game should be played. Ex: are we supposed to finish out one category before starting another? How many games are in each category? Is there a running score? What is the goal of this game (outside of finishing tach game/puzzle? Is the goal to get more or less points and how much is each game worth? Is there a running total? I have to say again that I'm very disappointed and sorry I purchased this app. I hope you will update and give more info. In the future..Version: 1.1
✓ Just a word searchThis app is good for keeping a preteen busy on a trip, or killing time while on hold. I agree with the others, the title is deceptive; I was hoping for something interesting..Version: 1.1
✓ Stop moaning!It's free and passes the time..Version: 1.1
✓ Seriously disappointingI was terribly disappointed by the description of this game and what I actually got! It's just another word search and what's worse is that I've only played a few games and I'm already getting repeat words. I would love my money back. Poor representation on this one!.Version: 1.1
✓ Tedious and repetitiveToo simple. The same words are used too often. Game does not tell you when you've achieved each level so you complete more puzzles than necessary. Waste of money. Even free I would not recommend it..Version: 1.1
✓ EasyI was disappointed that the puzzles aren’t more challenging. However, the greatest challenge for me was the font. It is too large and is uncomfortable to read, especially when playing a word find game. Make the font smaller, more simple, and emboldened and the game will be more fun and won’t strain the eyes..Version: 1.2
✓ Don't spend moneyI also did not look at the reviews and bought this thinking I was getting more than a silly word search. Very misleading and I want my money back too!.Version: 1.1
✓ Not worth the moneyFor me. This app was expensive and a waste of money. While there are lots of wordsearches. They are too simple and even the hardest level doesn't challenge there are much better free word search apps to get instead of this one.Version: 0
✓ QuzieIt's just a word search. I made the mistake of not reading the reviews. I really wish I would have. Doesn't this company read it's own reviews?.Version: 1.1
✓ Don't buy the bundle!I bought this as a bundle with whirly word for 99 p . However, it will not recognize that I bought the bundle, and I can only reinstall this game on my new device..Version: 1.1
✓ LameThis is a word search game, and it isn't even a good word search game. Almost every word in a given puzzle goes the same direction. Ugh!.Version: 1.1
✓ WhizzenknitterLAME! Misleading! Just another mediocre word search. I thought I was getting c challenging word game to build my vocabulary but I was miserably disappointed. I wish I could receive a refund, even for $2.99. I have not spent more on less!.Version: 1.1
✓ Not great yet but okayPros: Clean, classy UI Good number of list categories UI works well Cons: Very repetitive, same words all the time in each category. Poorly hidden words. Most just line up in a single direction per puzzle. No crossover letters that I've seen so far. Here's hoping the devs can kick this up a notch with updates..Version: 0
✓ Wish I'd read the reviews before buying!This game is great if you like simple word searches and have good eyesight. I don't. I bought this game without reading the reviews because I like another one of this company's games and figured this one would be at least okay. It wasn't. The description of this game says there's some sort of mystery to be solved. There isn't. Surely the company reads its own reviews. If so, they know they're misleading people, and they should change the description's text. They haven't. Sure, $1.99 isn't much, but it was ~my~ $1.99, and they have, in effect, stolen it. They should be ashamed..Version: 1.1
✓ Game playerWish I had not bought it, misleading sales pitch just another boring word search. Don't buy it.Version: 1.1
✓ RubbishWhy were we not told it is just another word search, all this misleading talk about being a detective, I want my money back! And it is making me give one star before I can submit my review..Version: 1.1
✓ B5tckcVery disappointed! Too easy after u solve u can look at # of puzzles solved and still says 0! Want to get my money back!!!.Version: 1.1
✓ DetectiveThe words puzzles seems too easy. No much diagonal challenges..Version: 0
✓ Word DetectiveVery poor only a word search. Should be made clear in advert..Version: 1.1
✓ RepetitiveThe words (especially in the States) are extremely repetitive. Some of the states aren't even listed, like Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, etc..Version: 0
✓ Save your moneyThe game freezes up after each game. You have to reboot every time . Very frustrating..Version: 0
✓ Misleading...Had I known it was that mindless game word search I would never have purchased it..Version: 1.1
✓ MISLEADING--RIP OFF!Pls give me my money back--I would NOT have bought this game if it didn't have a mystery to solve--IT DOESN'T!!! I have a crossword puzzle app already that I got FREE!!!! Seriously disappointed!!!!.Version: 1.1
