Community Insight:
Ive been playing this game and other games from AFKSoft for 15 years. This is our favorite word search game.
We love this game more than you will ever know! Please remove ads and fix the transitioning from one puzzle to the new one and it would be just perfect! We hope it is a easy fix Soon! But we love It! Thank you.
We too am having a problem with the page sticking instead of moving to the next puzzle. The other reviewer is right,it does not unfurl. This has happened since ios 13 update. This is usually a fun word search despite extremely intrusive ads.
Ive always loved this app, but lately not functioning correctly, page of puzzle does not unfurl when transitioning from one puzzle to new one! Please fix.
Excellent best game ever played.
Great game.too much avertisement.
There are endless puzzles. Just wish they would update the word lists with more Christmas words and delete words that aren't so holiday-themed like corn dog. More x-mas words please.
We have downloaded and played this game every holiday for years, but we can't handle ads that actually close the app and open Safari without us clicking them, sometimes randomly in the middle of doing the puzzle.
Very addictive and fun! Love it.
Good Holiday Fun! Merry Christmas.
We enjoy the music while solving puzzles.
It is really cool and really fun.
Attractive main menu, fun Christmas music and extremely addictive games! Love the varieties offered on the whimsical tree! Have not had any problems to note :).
After playing numerous games, words become repetitious. Game keeps crashing which gets frustrating.
Love it! Fun & great music!! Thank u.
Very addictive! We cannot stop playing.
This is a great game… Love it.
Best Christmas word search we found! Letters are big enough & easy to highlight.
Love it lots of fun and nice tune.
Love this game! Lots of choices, lots of fun.
Great game very assisting thanks.
Very relaxing and love the Christmas music.
Very enjoyable game! Topics a festive for the season.
^ waaaay to easy. Still enjoyable tho.
Jus missin the 'mistletoe' frm the list! Lotsa fun 4 the family & friendly holiday competition among friends.
Love Christmas music. Play it daily.
Ok…soooo it's fun when we play…but it needs to be harder MUCH harder.
We play this over&over we love word search puzzles 1-11-11.
Fast word play. Different levels and word groups. Lots of fun and a good game when you have some time to kill. A very good buy! Well worth the money! And it is addictive hard to stop playing until you reach #1.
It's ok….they should update the puzzles. Also, they should think about making a much harder level.
This game is a stimulating way to pass the time. Three levels allow our grandchildren the opportunity to enjoy it, as well. The words are a bit repetitive, but enjoyable none the less.
Great game can't stop great stress reliever.
We as a family we take turns seeing how fast we can solve a puzzle. We like the three level so that the youngest has a chance to play too. We like the Christmas graphics. We are glad we have this app. Merry Christmas to all.
Good word search game for Christmas.
It's a little good because chistmas Is over and it is easy even if you press hard don't waste your time playing this word search.
This is a fun, simple game. We like the upbeat Christmas tunes while finding the words. The searches have three difficulty levels although all are fairly easy (but how difficult could they get with such a small board). Highly recommend.
Simple, cheery game to play. Free gift to self. Thanks.
Great Christmas themed game for fans of word search games! Includes 3 difficulty settings and Christmas music (although you can listen to your own music). Merry Christmas.
If you like word search games this one is great fun for Christmas. The popout words make it easy to see which letters you have selected. We're holding on to one star because you can't adjust the volume within the app. Really we would only take away 1/2 star but we can't. This is still the best word search we have played on the iPhone/iTouch. Great design. Let us control the sound in the app and you get a solid 5 stars.
