Fixed an issue where online games would fail to start
Paperback Vol. 2 Reviews
Great game. BUT since the update: New feature, typos, doesnt show up on mobile and inviting players for games or starting new games with other players causes the app to hang. Please fix.
Review from 5-15-23: score 5/5 The issues have been fixed it seems and no longer is unplayable with a broken frame rate. Seems to run well again. Review from 5-10-23: score 3/5 Game is broken. Animations move at a snails pace. What did you change with the most recent update? Literally unplayable. It used to go 60fps now chugs around 10-15 fps. And this is on an iPhone 13 Pro. Was working perfectly fine before the update. Please fix. Great game otherwise. Would be rated 4-5 if not for the terrible update.
Our game wont deal us a second hand any more. We even jninstalled and reinstalled. Full rules would be nice too e.g. What is a typo?
We like this game, but with each update it brings more glitches The bugs we know: 1) the game runs with like 10-15 fps with the last update (iPad pro) 2) any of the card with the ability of making and adjustment card Wild doesnt work, making it unplayable 3) any of the card with the ability to pick up a card worthy 1c (2c) more doesnt work. If you try to use one of those cards to make a word, the buy button will disappear, making it impossible to finish the move 4) AI makes crazy words (especially The smartest one) Hope you can fix it soon! Good luck.
There are so many things wrong with this app. GUI is awkwardly laid out. Some buttons are way smaller than they should be. Push notifications dont work for online games. Some of the effects on cards like the Make an adjacent card wild dont always work. There have also been a few very legitimate words that the game rejects. Glad we own the physical game and also glad we got the app for free.
Overall, we were stoked to have the implementation of expansion options, butthere are numerous crash bugs making it unplayable70% of the time. Computer players lock up when trying to make a word. This has appeared with more cards on hand, not fewer. Computer players (smarter AI) have not made words, or have made suboptimal choices. The first is more problematic than the second. After watching them make FA or SH, we question them missing THE or SO. Computer players lock up while buying letters. We appreciate being able to skip their turn, but that just gets the game moving. It does not solve underlying issues. Finally, similar to PAPERBACK VOL1., the double score adjacency bonus does not always work. Again, thanks for putting the work in. Some more tweaks will get it where it needs to be. Mike.
The game will freeze on buying phase for AI, or finding word. This takes you out so much it becomes annoying. You think for the amount of money they charge they could get a programmer to fix such a glitch. Otherwise its a great game. Please update and fix this.
The AI still gets tripped up with triple the score of an adjacent card. The app just freezes. Thats a disappointing bug in an otherwise fun and challenging game.
The game is 5 stars in concept. Brilliant! Daily, the program freezes unpredictably on AI opponent finding a word. AI makes ridiculous fame card buying choices in coop mode, regardless of level of AI. If you set three AI to play against each other, an error occurs in every other game. Glitches are too everpresent for such a good game. Ill revisit this rating if new versions fix things.
We have created an account, but it will not run until we do something with a confirmation email message. Except that the message never arrives. Same problem for our friend; the problem is on their end. Further evidence of the publishers lack of programming skill: The message displayed when the app pretends to send the confirmation email is password reset sent (referring to an action button we did NOT press).
