Community Insight:
For those of us who are over 50, Winning Words is an excellent brain and short-term memory exercise. The fireworks at each successful match are good brain stimulation. Just addictive enough to keep our brain in good working order. –Chicago Blue.
This game is great for your memory and for people of all ages! So much fun! We are so glad this game is now on the iPhone.
We love word games and this app met all our expectations! It's fun, challenging and a great learning tool to use with our students!! We're so excited Synonym MATCH is now on the iPhone.
When you match words the delay for the next match is ten years. Allow the player to click past the wait. Then it's a five.
We have all 7 Winning Word MATCH Games on our iPad. Now we can have these apps on our iPhone.
Delay between matches is this apps killer. Plus the fireworks between every match gives you a seizure.
The idea is great but there is far too much time wasted when a match is made. You can't just tap and get to the next match. You have to wait until the fireworks stop! Too slow.
This is a fun quick game but having to wait for the stars animation to get done is annoying. Please add a feature to turn them off.
This fun game is a great challenge for our younger and older students. They all enjoyed competing with each other.
Great game, catchy, wonderful graphics. Can't wait to use this with our students at school and our own children. Fabulous.
Rarely have we found games that keep us engaged, never been much of a gamer. We have found that not only does synonym match keep us playing, but it is consistently rewarding enough to engage gamers of all ages. Looking forward to new titles from this developer.
What a terrific tool for students & adults to learn vocabulary!…our 9 year-old grandson loves this game & so do we….the visual graphics are stunning & the auditory "fireworks" certainly adds a winning touch….not only do kids (& grownups) learn vocabulary in a unique way, this game also helps improve memory function…as a former school psychologist, we give Synonym Match an A+.
This brings back memories of playing Concentration, but with words. Kids of all ages will have fun, not realizing they are actually learning something! Everyone enjoy.
Enjoyed playing Synonym Match and loved how it was both educational and a great memory skills test! Loved the graphics! Can't wait to introduce the game to our grandchildren.
Downloaded this app for our son in middle school. He loves playing Synonym Match and building his vocabulary. He will be telling his friends and we will be telling ours. We hope his teachers will incorporate this in the classroom.
Our wife and we just finished an epic battle of Winning Words. What a great game to play as we relax on an easy Saturday morning. The best part was we were expanding our lexicon all the while. This is am excellent learning tool for kids, as well. We cant wait to challenge our kids to a winning words battle.
This is the Best! It is challenging, fun and addictive! Perfect for all ages.
What a wonderful way to enjoy learning! The directions are clear and simple. The graphics are colorful and enticing and the content is perfect for all age groups. Vocabulary development is key to reading success and this is the way to go! A match made in heaven.
We found this new version of an old card game to be educational while it encourages the enhancement of mental sharpness while keeping the player entertained. As an 88 year survivor of a lifetime of living, this game is very much appreciated to keep our thoughts agile.
This app is such a wonderful way to teach elementary school kids about synonyms. It's colorful and entertaining but simple and straight forward enough to keep kids focused for the entire lesson. Make more games like this please.
Totally engaging…recommended by daughters teacher…our kid loves it.
Excellent game! Retired elementary teacher , wish it was around when we taught. Will use it with our grandchildren.
