Community Insight:
This is by far the best game on the net.
Fun game but no longer works (weeks now). Uninstalled and reinstalled with no luck. Works on iPhone but not iPad, too small to play on phone. Hope you can fix whatever went wrong.
We have been playing since 2020. We have met some interesting people along the way. We have also been playing with some of the same WW friends since we started. They are consistent with our games and play WHENEVER we are playing, middle of the day on break at work or the middle of the night when we cant sleep. They challenge and increase our vocabulary regularly. We are thankful for that. Playing WW has also been therapeutic for us during our bereavement periods. No questions to answer but somewhere else to focus our attention to when we want to get away without actually leaving. Thank you Word Wars for the numerous game friends we play regularly and your continuous improvements over the years.
We absolutely love playing Word Wars! It is challenging and so much fun playing with friends that we have met online! Unfortunately, our game hasnt worked for weeks! We did everything but uninstall it because we dont want to lose our statsI am also upset because we just disappeared from the game which ghosted us from everyone there! We miss the game and our friends! PLEASE help us get our game fixed.
We like this game a lot but we wish we could receive more coins.
Love this game but it wont open anymore.
We really enjoy playing Word Wars and have been a regular user, but recently the app wont open at all. Ive tried restarting our device and reinstalling the app, but the problem persists. Could you please look into this issue or share any updates on when it might be fixed? Id really appreciate your helpI miss playing.
We usually play everyday to pass the time on our breaks. We havent been able to play the last two days but there is an ad continuously running at the top. Lol. We updated the game and its still looking for online players. We can no longer play and we always keep multiple games.
Our app suddenly stopped working. We miss playing daily. Janet.
Great game, but ads freeze the game no fun.
We love playing this game but for the past three days, we have been unable to play due to the app. Once we click on the game, the screen goes black.we have restarted the IPad several times as well as deleting and reinstalling the app.Can you please help to resolve this issue.
We cant -lay the game on our IPad.
So Ive been playing this game for a long while ( mostly every day) now its loading and wont fully load so its stuck. Please fix this problem.
Use to love this game it shuts down almost after every play hope you can fix it.
Overall, we like the game. Its similar to scrabble and literati. We dont like that it constantly freezes up and glitches, we dont like the inability to disable chat altogether, and we dont like that you cant unfriend people. Be nice to see a fix to all of this.
Can anyone help us? The app constantly closes. Also our phone gets so hot when Im playing the game and then Im booted off.
We were playing the game with our friend and we ended up winning. But for some reason we ended up losing although we had a higher score. Everytime we would play with this friend and they won, it showed that they won on their screen, but when we won it did not show on our profile. Next, it freezes alot. If you back out after playing with someone, it freezes and you need to go back in the app AGAIN.
So interesting and so intertaning.
We Love this game, however Im paying for a yearly subscription and the app crashes far too often. Our app and our iOS are updated. Please fix this.
This used to be our favorite game. App/Game constantly crashes. Doesnt give rewards as it should; eg watch two videos to earn coins, watched 2 videos, no coins. Watched 3-5 videos then received rewards.
This is/was our favorite game. Have not been able to connect for a week. Game just went black. Years ago we had a. True/False game go black. Where do these games go to die.
This game constantly shuts down on us and also does not score for some of our won games.
There is something wrong with the chat feature in our games we are able to chats from opponents but they are unable to see our responses.
Ive been using this app for about 4 years now and its been fun but Ive noticed more frequent freezing, restarting and using up coins for options we didnt choose. We feel like its getting worse not better with the fixes Please address and fix.
We have uninstalled and re installed twice. Screen keeps going black. We love this game. Except for the many adds and having to reboot a few times.
Updated the game and now the app will not open, uninstalled and reinstalled, still wont open after new update so now we have to permanently delete it we guess.
Unfortunately, theres an annoying noise that comes through this game app. We have to go out and come back in to get it to stop so normally we would say this is a great relaxing game however its becoming uncomfortable to play. Please fix the bugs.
We love this game but half the time its not working. The problem has been getting worse, we havent gotten to play a whole game in years. Downloaded it on phone and having issues on it.
Love this game but, our points keep freezing up. We got 1st place and was to get 300 points and they didnt give them to mefrustrating because it takes a lot of time to get to 1st. We really want our points back.
Absolutely LOVE this gamebut, glitches are many..Ads are repetitive – invasive & annoying.
Love the game they have fixed all bugs and crashes if you played a couple years ago keeps our senior mind sharp.
Love this game but too many advertisements lately and the intervals are too often to the point of getting annoying. Install updates but didnt work. Please do something for us not to stop playing this game.
The games fun but the main issue with it is the ads istg so many adds plus theres a bunch of old ahh men and they be looking for a dates on the app plus the game loves to freeze please fix yo game.
Very fun game very competitive a lot of people to play with. Was super fun till ads started getting more frequent. The audio ads are so annoying.
We love this game. It helps us stay focused. But it has some issue: freezes up so Im unable to take our turn, will run an ad and not let us continue the game.
This game has been our favorite relaxation game for a while now but recently there has been some new type of ads constantly popping up. That is VERY ANNOYING! We are thinking about uninstalling it because its becoming too annoying.
We love this game but it is very frustrating when it freezes and cuts out so frequently. Hope they improve this.
Love the game but when Apple has an update, it especially makes this game crash way, way too often.
Fun game, but an ad every other move is annoying. Half the time when an ad pops up the game freezes. Too many bots, it would be nice to play an actual person once in a while.
What is going on with this app? Very slow to respond, crashes constantly. Last time we had this happen we had to delete and re -download again losing everything! How can we keep our current status.
After a couple of games our phone gets really hot, no other app does this to our phone. Also way too many ads.
We loved this game but now the ads are freezing making us go out of the game. Whats with the ads after every game on the weekends??? Bioma needs to find a new place to advertise. They are long and constant and cant spell Ozempic. Please fix before we get too frustrated and delete the game. We dont want to because we love playing the same players.
Too many ads. Way too many, after practically every move. We also have had issues with the game freezing or just booting us out, so we need to open it again, sometimes several times during session of game play. But the game is enjoyable and if not for the issues we mentioned, we would give it 5 stars. Another issue-the game for some reason heats up our phone and eats battery life. Maybe the non-stop ads? We still enjoy playing but because of these ongoing issues we dropped our rating to 3 stars.
This is a fun game, but it constantly loads then turns off. Our daughter also had this problem and finally deleted and then reloaded (losing all coins and friends of course). Im about ready to do so because we havent been able to get play at all today. This foxs the problem for our daughter (so far), but Ive read where people have deleted and reloaded only to have it crash consistently again. Its our favorite word game so far, we just wish this crashing problem would get resolved.
The game is fun but, it would be better if the app had a better vocabulary. It keeps saying that perfectly valid words, that we checked with a dictionary, are invalid. Seriously, since when is Rome an invalid word.
Ive been playing this app for quite a while. Recent updates are making it very buggy – slow to respond, tiles get stacked so you cant see what you have to play either, it will go into a loop of restarting over and over and over we sent notes to developer but no response. Still like the game though so we just have to close it and restart it frequently.
This was fun for awhile then more and more glitches with no support after contacting on numerous occasions. We would be ahead say 40 pts. Our opponent would write a two point word and their score would jump to several points above ours for no reason. This happened multiple times.
Constantly being bombarded by the most unprofessional and repetitious product ads for products that we wouldnt even think of purchasing.
This used to be one of our favorite games but we just deleted it. Theyve added an unbearable number of ads. Unless you want to pay $5/month for ad-free play youll spend way more time watching ads than playing the game. If they added an ad after each game ends it would be OK, but theres an ad after EVERY TURN. Make a word, watch an ad, make another word watch another ad. We stopped playing for a couple of months sure theyd come to their senses but no. They dont even offer a flat-fee to remove ads permanently, just $5/month. $60/year for this game is insulting.
We love the game – HATE the glitches!!! The ads cause the board to freeze, then you have to wait forever until it unfreezes! And did we mention that it crashes at LEAST 5 times a game.
