Word Fight | Friends – Education Game Review
Word Fight | Friends is a Education/Word game from Gavin Wong, first launched in 11th April 2022.
It’s rated 4+ and currently has 25+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Word Fight | Friends Stand Out
Word Fight is the two player game – where players face off to guess the same random five letter word in the least number of moves to win.
Challenge friends to see who can guess the mystery word the fastest. Win your games to improve your rating – and see who comes out as the winner in the ultimate Word Fight!
START A GAME
► Start a fight with a friend or a stranger. Each fight is battled out across multiple rounds – where each player makes a move to guess the word correctly. Each round finishes when both players have made their move. The first player to guess the word correctly wins!
WIN GAMES
► All players start with a rating of 1200 – which goes up every time you win a game. The rating system is based on the Chess Elo system – if you beat a higher rated player, your rating goes up more than if you beat a lower rated player.
SEE THEIR WORDS
► The game has two modes – one where your guesses are hidden, and one where you both see each other's words.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We never review apps, but our husband and we love Wordle and looked forever to try to find something that we could play against one another that was kind of like Wordle. We downloaded this months ago and have played at least one round against each other daily, but we generally will play several throughout the day! We dont play with strangersonly our husband! It its worth the money.
Its like wordle but u battle other people. Its fun.
Fun game if you love Wordle but want more! We play every day.
Thanks to the developer for adding chat and spacing to help figure out words. We play for hours and love it.
We like it but we want to get the word fight done in much shorter time than 24 hours and the need to wait around to race the person because you cant submit your next word guess ahead of time (the biggest flaw) so you know the answer but cant enter it but then the other person enters two guesses after you get sick of waiting around to be able to take your turn.
The developer was correct with the existence of of a replay button. It actually was a very obvious button, but we missed it. Also the chat feature recommendation was taken and implemented in a great and simple way. Its in a corner opposite of the confirm button which looks really well done in our opinion. Overall, Im very pleased and highly suggest you give this app a try if you are on the fence. Also if you have any recommendations or suggestions, it seems this developer is willing to listen and take those into consideration. Original Review for Reference (4 > 5 Stars): we love the game and introduced it to a family member. Now, we are constantly competing over and over again. The game is smooth to play and load, however, we feel that it is missing 3 features that should exist in our opinion. 1) A Rematch button that eliminates the need to go back to the menu, click friends list, find that person in your friend list, and press the play button. (This is obviously referring to specific people you play against but might also be cool to rematch other opponents) 2) A chat feature would be nice, or at least a button to say good game at the end of a match. We feel that this would help to create a community feeling within the game and matches the competitive nature of the gameplay. 3) we would appreciate the ability to fill in the letters on a letter-by-letter basis. By this, we mean that the ability to place letters into any of the 5 spaces without the need to place a filler letter in the prior spaces would be nice. For example, if our objective word was mount and we guessed front, we would know the nt portion is correct in spots 4 & 5, and o would go in either slot 1 or 2. In this case, being able to start typing out the nt in those slots could help to visualize what the word is.
Really fun to play with friends.
Fun game overall. But it doesn't require you to put in an email and password at the beginning. If you sign out you cant login again because you need to put in an email and password. We accidentally logged out and we dont want to lose our progress. Update: we created a new account and ive added an email and password, in terms of an actual review we think the game is fun to play and slightly addictive however we think you should change it so when signing up you must enter and email and password so this cant happen to people.
We enjoy the game, but the 24 hour timeout doesnt work consistentlystarted games with 2 different family members at the same time, and one expired while the other continued with 14 hours left. No rhyme or reason to it that we can determinefrustrating enough to get people to stop playing.
So far, there are not that many options to customize our experience. We only want to play with our friends: how can we prevent the app from getting random requests to play? Its annoying. UPDATE: OH, SO MANY BUGS. It lets the opponent play consecutive turns without a chance for the opponent to play. Ive tried that a coupon of times, so it wasnt isolated. Stay away from this until resolved.
