Community Insight:
Once you complete a normal level, scroll all the way down on that level and tap the white flower and your in Hidden Mode How we would rate this game and why we would rate 5 stars because we spent 15 minutes on 1 level. Thats a good thing because that means its not sooo easy as some fake reviews suggest. We are now on lvl 4, and 1 after download. There are no advertisements spammed in your face. And the ads arent inappropriate 17+. You do need to watch ads for hints, though. XP This game has EVERYTHING we enjoy! Cute animations, learning, calm theme, and ORIGINAL designs! Get it now.
We beat this game over 2 years, it was an excellent game for our commute which helped us expand our vocabulary and knowledge. We've since left it installed on our phone while we wait for the update. We're wondering though, will uninstalling it erase our progress.
Love this game, beautifully made, very entertaining, couldnt ask for more…a job very well done.
The graphics on this game are simply stunning! The puzzles are fun little brain teasers that aren't impossible to solve. 10/10 would recommend.
We like it. It's very funny and thanks to developed so funny app.
The visuals are adorable and enjoyable, the word puzzles are interesting, this is definitely the app for us! We love the aesthetic, it's so relaxing after a long day.
We like this game a lot….nothing quite like it. We particularly enjoy playing it at night as we're winding down for the evening. We definitely recommend it.
Relaxing and very pretty to look at. Two things we wanted and got in this sweet game. Thank you makers.
Fun but needs more levels! Really glad you don't have to complete Hidden Levels tiger to next level.
A nice game, not perfect but enjoyable. We have run through level 14 and we guess we're just out of luck as there is not an option provided to reset the entire game for replay. Is anyone listening? Offer a setting for replay, please. Also provide setting options to turn off all sound.
We really enjoy the game. The puzzles are fun, and the art is beautiful. Our only complaint is that you can't skip questions in hidden mode and give back to them later.
Unique, relaxing but also stretches the brain.
How in the world is this free? This is such a good game! From the music to the artwork to the gameplay and puzzles this game really goes above and beyond. We have experienced no problems with this game so far and we've been addicted to it. One suggestion we do have though is to make some of the questions or trivia to be more about stuff that happens today.
Never seen a game like this! Very challenging… Try it.
A relaxing but challenging (enough) game to play when you have a few minutes.
Kind of easy so far hope it gets harder.
The game combines pastel colors, gentle music, and puzzles that (though they do require you to think) aren't overly difficult.
It's a different kind of game. Very relaxing. Lovely art style. Just unique and entertaining.
Like that we can kinda pick which puzzle in a level to do along the tree, wish we could do the same for hidden mode though, cause a lot of those hints we just don't get and would like to try another of the bunch instead so we can get past it and unlock the next area but it only ever offers us the same clue. And we really don't want to rely on google searching to simply get to play the game.
We are really learning little facts about things we never knew.
When you try to spell the right word, the letters don't click. So like "home for a fish" would be aquarium, but it won't let you swipe the letters. At least on ours.
Fun word game, good stumpers every so often.
This game has a very beautiful design and relaxing gameplay. The puzzles are challenging but not overly frustrating. And Alice is so cute.
We're officially obsessed. So cute and actually pretty challenging.
We love that there are lots of puzzles and the hidden puzzles are fun.
Love the game features. Equally captivating and challenging. The graphics are beautifully done as well.
This game is not only aesthetically pleasing, but fun! We're in love with it.
And we're not even a fan of word puzzles but this one is great.
Enjoying this word game very much. We recommend it, especially since it is free.
1) so far, mostly seems to be word puzzles, not much exploration. Mix of basic words with those that require pop culture knowledge and the like, so harder for us to play with our kid than hoped. 2) language issues. For example, had one that asked for a flag that used red and white, and the answer was two words — took a lot of wrestling to realize that the answer was two separate countries! Presume there's a language/translation issue there, but since this is a word game, that needs to be hammered out.
It is not overly hard and for people who do word puzzles it might be intuitive; however, we found the game lacks examples, for instance, when it switches to "Hidden" Mode lacks help explanations. Also the texted based game advice (hints) gives you as it changes scenes are to fast to read before they are gone. It would be helpful to add a REAL help section with text and graphic images that give examples and lay out game mechanics a little better.
Loved it until it started crashing. Can't even get it to load now.
Was enjoying the game and like the challenge of it, but once we tried to open lvl 14 the app keeps crashing. Now it won't even open. 5 stars when it works, but now is useless.
All we got to say is this app is fun.
We are super pick about games. We LOVE this! The puzzles are challenging and fun. Plus, the game is beautiful! We can't recommend this enough.
This game looks so beautiful and it plays like a charm.
Our daughters not only get to practice their word-thinking skills and enhance their vocabulary they also get inspirations from the beautiful drawings and color palettes. Thanks so much.
Amazing concept and artwork! The format is extremely aesthetic and makes the game pleasant to play.
We enjoy it and the art is so pretty. Keeps us on our toes as far as guessing the words is concerned. Fun.
Usually we don't review games but we think this one deserves more credit that other reviewers at giving it. The controls for the game are very smooth and the puzzles require some thought but can be solved without frustration. We found the instructions to be understandable although we know that some others had trouble understanding them, but the most recent update was mainly to fix just that. Our only problems are that it is difficult to switch puzzles in hidden mode and it uses up quite bit of m battery. If you are reading this to decide whether or not to try this game we would recommend it so far.
We are really enjoying this game so far. We are currently on the sixth level, and the game has progressed in difficulty just as it should. We appreciate the extra levels immensely, though we would appreciate a quicker way to switch between flowers. When the answer might be on any one of the 15-25 flowers, its very tedious to navigate to flowers not entirely on screen. This is perhaps our only complaint. Great game so far! UPDATE: They added navigation arrows very quickly after release. Helps immensely, upgraded to 5 stars.
This is a fun word game with cute art but sometimes some of the clues it gives are difficult.
Well done word game. It starts off very easy, but then gets more challenging quickly. Initially we had some confusion about the hidden puzzles, and some of the navigation was difficult. The latest update has addressed this, and hopefully it will be refined even more. Using the "undo" button to switch puzzles is not very intuitive. But once you learn the quirks of the game, it's fun.
Everything from the relaxing music, the lovely water paint art, this game has it all. We also love the hidden puzzles, synonym hunting! It's really a great game, keeps your mind sharp, it's also very pretty.
We downloaded it just to play around on during work and am in love! The art style is so pretty and unique and the game is so well done! The descriptions of the words are so well done. Love it! 5/5.
Alice in Wordland has managed to bring aesthetic approach in a simple yet interesting word puzzle. Would really love to see more game from the creator.
This game is beautiful as well as refreshingly challenging.
We love the art it's adorable and the game is just the right amount of challenge.
We're going to basically turn this into one of those YouTube comment sections about Od School kid stuff — we got to the 3rd level, and on one of the things, the only hint it gives you is "WALL STREET", and the only thing that popped into our mind was that song from School House Rock that taught kids about when and when not to invest a lot of money in stock markets. And we don't know if we should feel ashamed or proud because that song, which is now stuck in our head, made that part too easy.
Relaxing puzzle game. It may be easy, but we love the music and art. A lot of care went into this game.
