Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We wish Lexulous would show other players ratings, just like Lexulous in Facebook.
A great platform, good version of a game. We have spent untold hours enjoying the play. Word gen folks are here but mostly easy to avoid. We really like it overall.
We like the game. The problem is, no matter how much we try, we cant get our notifications. We wrote the company but never heard back.
Seems like every update messes up ability to login on iPad. With this latest update, we are unable to access our facebook games on our iPad. No issues with iPhone, only iPad.
Lexulous is a fun game but it often has login issues. For example, we were unable to access it yesterday on our iPhone. The website displayed a message that said, There was a problem connecting to Lexulous. We are unable to play it today because we are receiving two odd messages: 1. We were unable to swap tiles because Lexulous stated that Dynamodb update failed. 2. We were unable to play a valid word because Lexulous stated that Null is not valid in the US dictionary. Speaking of the US dictionary, we are also disappointed that it allows words that are archaic, from another language with unconventional spelling, or have no definition in its dictionary.
We love this app, although we prefer challenges with the computer to live games. At 71, it keeps our mind sharp.
IPad version logs you out every hour. Truly obnoxious.
Needs more functionality for live games like on the website.
All in all a good app but frustrating when you cant play words you know are in scrabble dictionary.
The board is interesting and gives opportunity to find complex words Donna K.
It doesnt display as a badge count when its our turn to play in spite of our having notifications turned on. And there is no way to contact the developer within the game APP, which is unusual.
We can definitely tell the developers here really love and appreciate the play of Scrabble related games. We so appreciate Lexulous being here for so many years and having features such as the in-game dictionary, mobile phone app, touch fill in of letters (v. Dragging), and post-game analysis. We also appreciate they have not added brightness and glitz that would make it physically painful for us to use. We have not been able to play online "Scrabble" since Scopely took it over as Scrabble Go. We have post-concussion syndrome (with light and visual motion sensitivity) and cannot tolerate the brightness and animations. We love that Lexulous has kept this app accessible for us and others who do not want the glitz and distractions. This supports the true love of the game and because of that we love Lexulous and we are so thankful to the developers.
Fun game to play with the world or just friends. X.
And love it more without any ads which were becoming extremely annoying, aggravating, disgusting! So 1.99 very reasonable to pay to get rid of them totally ! Thanks so much Have played for years and will keep on playing !!! June That was long ago and we are still thoroughly enjoy playing with our friends every single day. Thanks so much! 6/10/23 Still trying to get avatar symbols changed ..keep being told maybe will be done please give us flowers .nature pics.
How do we get in to play without going through Facebook? Dont like having to log in each time we play.
We appreciate Lexi list for several reasons one he keeps us in contact with our sister several states away. Two we find it mentally stimulating trying to form words from available tiles. Third we enjoy the fact that we can play it without the physical encumber mens of tiles and the board and perhaps looking up in a dictionary and keeping score, and making sure that the game is in bumped or Jarred or spilled. These are some of the main reasons that we enjoy Lexi looks so much.
Just purchased the no ads version……terrible. Every letter played enlarges the board approx 50% in size requiring us to pinch the board back to normal size. Also have had trouble advancing to the NEXT GAME. To advance to next game, we have to totally exit and reenter lexulous. Very disappointing.
Now you have to sign in to play EVERY SINGLE TIME! Why did they do this.
Awesome and fun way better than words with friends.
Same great game without the ads!! Plenty of other players to choose from.
We play alot and recently we have started getting logged off multiple times a day. Recently we are constantly logged off. Have to relog in multiple times a day. Please fix this. We played for years without this happening. Thank you.
Ive played Lexulous for many, many years, and really enjoy it. We have a couple of friends we play games with on the regular.
Great game! Nice to be able to find players in other parts of the world.
A good challenge & fun. Nice way to keep in touch with distant friends. BUT: hate the horrible commercials! Friends dont have them – whats the secret.
The combo of letters is bizarre. 8 vowels at once? 4 Os. Hard to believe 8 vowels is a random pick. Spoils the game.
Weird words, great new friends. :-).
More challenging than the other word games out there. Very good game – Im addicted.
We play every day with a mix of people we know and people we met on the app. Paying a little extra to remove the ads is well worth it, by the way.
We have very much enjoyed the challenge of this game as well as the connection it provides with friends and family as we play each other across the miles.
Despite some of the ludicrous word acceptances, this game entertains us endlessly. Thank you.
We have enjoyed playing Lexulous for years. Its a great game, but you changed something recently and now we are unable to exchange messages wit our friends. Unfortunately this means we will probably play Words with Friends more frequently than Lexulous now on. We enjoyed the comments we used to exchange with our brother Why did you mess things up.
Been playing this since its inception and still love it every day. App is stable and connects with FB if you want to play your peeps. Or you can choose a worthy adversary based on rank. Awesome version of Scr*bble.
Ive played for years, win or lose, we love it.
Love this game but why doesnt the screen rotate???? Only flaw.
The free version is so frustrating to play – forced to watch 60 agonizing seconds of the same dumb game (Royal Match) every time. Our friend pointed out this version to us. Best $1.99 we ever spent.
Live Lexulous. Have played it for years but since the format changed we can only play the e-mail version!! The developers of the game couldnt even figure out how to correct the problem for us TheSilver1.
Ive been playing for 4-5 years with our mother and its a good way to stay connected. Its also a lot of fun even though we win nearly every time we play.
Can you do something with the ads? Cant see the games for the ads. Great games other than that.
We have been playing this game for years. It was our favorite. Now suddenly all our games have disappeared – over 100 games gone! We are so shocked and disgusted. Any way we can recover our account.
We don't like that. We are not allowed to start new games with opponents. We keep getting the message that says we have too low of a completion rate or something like that and it will not let us start new games. We do not like that a lot of the games that we were playing have disappeared. And we do not like that all of our history has disappeared. What are you guys doing.
We play every day, and now this? What the heck? Now annoying adds while we play the game.
We used to love it but suddenly the scores were not showing on the page and that makes it too much trouble. The other players name doesnt show nor the scores.
Urgh, where to start? We had about 15 games loaded on this when they all disappeared. Now when we try to start a new game it either crashes or says "error occurred". We can only log into FB and not with our email. Don't bother downloading it, free or not. Not worth e frustration.
Like the free game on facebook, but this app quits every time we try to login and play. Too many bugs, like every time we match a new random opponent, we take a turn and it tells us the match is over. Waste of money. Pass. UPDATE: Astounding how long it took the developers to respond, we wrote this review so long ago we cant even remember when. Four years ago, or more. Bad app with bad customer service. Done.
We have be playing with a friend for years. We always have multiple games going at once. She did an update to her iPad and says the board changed so much that she can't play anymore. She sent us a screenshot and we have to agree it makes our head spin. Hopefully this will be fixed.
Just love it. Far superior to all the other word games on FaceBook! Don't change a thing.
We love the game and start everyday playing with friends. Our only complaint is that people should not be able to view the letters of their opponents.
We love this app, although we prefer challenges with the computer to live games. At 68, it keeps our mind sharp.
We enjoy the game. However, we think there are too many vowels. Also would like to see our moves and opponents in different colors.
We like everything about the game except the stickiness of the letters. They dont like to stay where you want them.
