Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
This game is easy to play and works great. Just enough of a challenge to keep it fun.
We like this game because it is challenging but not so hard that we can't figure it out. It will probably get harder as the levels go up but right now we're enjoying it.
Love Love this game. Wish it would update sometime with new levels. Pleaseeeeeeee update.
Not all clues follow the same category, but the answer is the same.
This is a great critical thinking game. The clues are clever and keep the player on his/her toes.
It's a fun game testing your intellect on synonyms and spelling.
Love the game. Wish there was a way to scramble the letters around and a button to return letters to original spot.
Great word game…. Highly recommend!! Easy to navigate, no ads or pressure to purchase. Puzzles are of differing levels of difficulty. Includes a skip feature if you really get stuck.
Keep it fun and easy, and it will be enjoyed.
Fun game. Challenging from the very first level.
Clues are not all easy; takes some thinking.
This game really does a different thing with words. Turns your mind into a venn diagram, makes you look at the overlap between words rather than the definition or spelling up a specific one.
Fun and addicting. Makes you think.
We're just starting this game and already it's become a family game everyone trying to guess.
