Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
This game gets progressively more difficult. You can get hints by watching ads. Keeps our mind sharp.
Some everyday words are not listed and some definitions are a mystery but it is still a fun jumble puzzle.
Fun game that helps us zone out and improve our vocabulary.
This is a game we never miss playing every single day. We enjoy it tremendously and challenge ourselves to not use any hints. Great satisfaction.
Fun game, straight to the point great exercise for the brain.
Pretty fun in those time killing situations.
The game is challenging and patient. You dont have to complete the game right away. Hints are generous. Game reaches out to you, too. We really enjoy it.
Relaxing and increasingly challenging, a difficult combination to attain.
Great game. Quick and challenging.
This is the only one we feel challenged by. It uses multiple form of English Im not really sure how many years Ive been playing, Ill guess 6 years, when we finish, we go back to a level of our experience, and they never seem to run out of new puzzles and an occasional awesome word that really impresses. As far as Ive found, it is the best.
We enjoy playing this game better Im forced to use our brain which we need to do since our stroke.
Fun and challenging-great past time game.
We really like playing the game, however we wish you guys would run weekly specials to buy more hints.
Fun, easy game that saves your progress. We recommend.
We love this game, it challenges us and stimulates our mind. We would refer this game to all people who likes challenging games and want to stay sharpe.
We have played this type of word game before, and this is the best version by far.
After 12 years and 5995 games, we have completed Letter Soup. Does it get harder as you go along, sure! But LS does not makes it so you cant advance at all with dropping a pile of money at their feet. The better you are at vocabulary, the longer you will go w/o need to buy & use hints.
Such a fun puzzle. Takes 2 minutes a day.
This game is great! It really stimulates the mind.
This so much fun, difficult but fun.
We really enjoy playing word games, and this is one of the best.
We like this game a lot but getting hints are hard to do because you cant close the ads and get clues.
We love this game. Its challenging, yet zen. We love that Im not penalized if we struggle on the last word or two. You can take your time or zip through: your choice. Our daughter loves it too. We give 4 stars because of some words left out that are common usage, often in favor of some that leave you confused. But its based off the Webster British dictionary and you can get a definition of any word used at any time. Ive built up lots of available hints by watching short videos, so you dont have to spend $$ if you dont want to. Enjoy! Update: two issues that we have as of 1/27/24: Recently, the free hint offered freezes up our game and we have to reboot our phone to free it up. Frustrating! And even more, Im not given the hint that locks up our phone, even with watching the ad to the end! Please, developers take care of this! Secondly, quite awhile back, the definitions were taken out. Where and why? Thanks.
Ive played this game for years and love it. Recently Im having an issue with receiving hints. The ad plays and when its time to collect the hint, we cant. Im watching ads for nothing. Is there a way to fix this.
There seems to be a glitch. Ive noticed for weeks now theres no reward for watching most of the ads. We hope you look into it. Thanks Weeks later and still the same problem. You offer a hint if we watch an advertisement. You cant imagine how many hints you owe us. It works about 40% of the time.
Learning many new words and their definitions. Great learning and entertaining game. Frankie H.
Love this game BUT two ads stick and we have to delete the app and download again. The instagram ad leaves us with a black screen that goes nowhere. The king ad goes nowhere regardless of what button we push. This is getting old.
We absolutely love this game. Im constantly learning something new. We wanted to play a game that kept us on our toes. This is it.
Love this game and have played it for a very long time. Lately when offered a hint, and it is an ad for Instagram, once it plays through the screen freezes and you dont get awarded the hint. It happens every time. Very frustrating.
Great game to increase your vocabulary and pass the time.
We have played letter soup for years on our IPhone. We updated our phone and now when we click on leter soup all we get is a black screen! Help.
We really enjoy this game…but…Everytime we watch a video for a hint, we don't get that hint. What's up with that?? Please fix this. Thanks.
This is a great game- one of our favorites that are out there. Thank you.
You can stop and come back later without losing your place.
We have over 20 games on here, but Letter Soup seems to be the only one we play. It is definitely our favorite game. We love it and really appreciate all those who makes it available. Thank you.
Keeps our mind sharp and learning new words.
Ive been playing for years. We even suggest it to friends and family who have also come to love the experience.
After playing the game daily, the site has disappeared from our iPhone. The site is black.
Always fun with just enough challenge but not so much challenge to be stressful.
Great game to work on words and stuff.
We love this word game! We play it all the time. The difficulty builds slowly over time but we enjoy the challenge. If Im stumped for a word, there are hints (one letter in the word) available to purchase. Or we just wait for the whole word reveal sent in a notification within about a weeks time. Its fun and challenging! It also sharpens your mind and spelling skills. If you like word puzzles, give Letter Soup a try.
Great fun. Exercise for your brain.
Love playing to unwind every evening.
Love challenging our mind in a fun way.
Best brain game ever It reminds you of not knowing what you know.
So addicting we lose track of time.
Fun game that doesnt take our entire break to get to.
Really helps to keep the mind alert.
Have enjoyed this letter puzzle for several years.
Awesome site. Cannot stop playing it. Keep up the good work! GREAT GAME, IT IS VERY GOOD IN HELPING YOUR MIND AND SPELLING SKILLS. One thing we are having trouble with though some how the sight is taking away hints from us that we HAVE NOT USED, EVEN ACCIDENTALLY! We HOPE YOU CORRECT MY SITUATION, PLEASE.
