Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Our daughter and we play this together and love it. It gets harder the longer you play. It definitely makes you think. Its a good game for kiddos who are in elementary school because it gives definitions of words as a hint option, and of course they have to know how to spell the words too. This game will drive you nuts in a good way and is pretty addicting as well. Try it.
Great game. Keeps your mind active.
We like the challenge, it keeps our brain awake.
This is a soothing activity with a challenge. It is a perfect way to wind down or just sit with a cup of coffee and enjoy.
Love this game ! Good brain training.
IT'S A VERY VERY VERY FUN MIND EXERCISING GAME.
Im enjoying the word games,at times we have a hard time with words.
This is a nice game. Our only complaint is that it takes a long time before the games become very difficult. Also the games frequently repeat themselves.
Good game overall. Took a nit to figure out how the butterflies and a couple other rewards work but once you get it, the game flows well.
Keeps our mind moving. We like the challenge of learning and reminding of words we dont use a lot.
What happened to our game? When we updated, we lost almost 3000 levels! Now we are back to the beginning and we have some puzzle to assemble. We want our game back! Unless we get our levels and points back, we are done with this game.
We play many word games. This game has a better, challaging vocabulary list.
Love the game, especially the challenges every few days. They do not have fool as an acceptable word though. Thanks for a great game. Kay.
Fun & usually relaxing. Flexes our brain & vocabulary.
Love this game. Very good brain work.
We love this game! Your ad says 10 minutes a day will sharpen your brain, but who can stop in 10 minutes.
Challenging and fun. Much better than other games we have tried.
Just what we were looking for – landscape view and challenging words.
This game is addictive! Lots of fun.
We love this game so we give it 5 stars. One problem just started this morning. Mid game it crashes and starts over. Erases the game that was going and starts a new one. We checked to see if an update was available but the game is up to date.
This game is so addictive. Our whole office is playing. Really fun and keeps your brain sharp. We laugh and laugh. Lots of fun.
We love this game!!! It is fun and challenging.
Enjoy using our brain and learning a few definitions along the way.
We really enjoy playing this game. It helps us to unwind after a hard day at work.
A good way to unwind at the end of the day and a good way to keep your mind strong.
We really enjoy the challenges of each round. We downloaded this game a long time ago, but just started playing it. What was we thinking.
This game can sometimes be a breeze and at other times you really have to think and look hard. We enjoy the challenge.
Love playing this game! We are 75 years old and it keeps us sharp.
Enjoy playing just takes too long to download ads.
This is a great game. It offers a relaxing, mind exercising platform.
We like it helps us keep up with words Ive learned.
Being at home since the pandemic, with hardly much to do. Our son told us about wordplay. Now we both is challenging each other to see who is the brightest star. Love this game help us to relax and enjoy.
We really like finding the words.
Challenging. Mind provoking. Use of some words numerous times.
One of the best word games Ive ever played.
Fun game too too hard to play for us old folks.
How about a version you simply pay for rather than needing to purchase items to keep playing. This should let you start over from time to time.
83, but this is one game that keeps us on our thinking best.A college graduate, but writing sure was not our strong point, so this keeps us on our ToesI get mad & frustrated , but we usually find the words,..Thanks.
Great game to decompress and relax at the end of the night.
A few times just recently Ive been playing and the app closes for no reason. When reopened, we need to start that level all over. Needs to be fixed.
We have enjoyed the app for a few months now and it is the reason for the four star rating. However some recent changes have made the game less enjoyable to play. New bonus word point changes cause points to increase at a diminished rate and there are more incentives to purchase tools instead of using points you have earned. Part of the fun was watching those points increase quickly when you found a lot of bonus words. The increase in number of ads popping up, especially with the addition of video ads, has gone overboard. Maybe on purpose so you start paying monthly to hide them? As a marketing person we understand the reasoning, it just feels like too much. One last note is that frequently plurals are not recognized in the main game or timed challenges. In the challenges you can lose a try instead of the word counting as a bonus if the word is not part of the puzzle or is not an accepted bonus plural. Overall a fun game.
Would like to see how we compare to other players(maybe not) just to give us a handle on how we perform.
We enjoy trying to make up words,you have shown us many new words we did not no! Only trying to keep our mind active! FUN. Thank You.
We have enjoyed playing this relaxing game for a while…even with its haphazard acceptance of plural spellings. The recent update, however, is irritating us to no end! We do like the jigsaw puzzle idea they added but just cant take the congratulations of You catched a butterfly! We keep yelling back that we didnt catched a butterfly, we CAUGHT a butterfly.
Enjoy the game. However, there are multiple aspects that could be improved. For example, we win all these stars that we cant buy anything with them. The one competitive event is limited to one every couple of days against yourself. They use to have a community competition but that stopped.
This game is fun, although too easy. Harder words by would be great. We keep hoping that the upper levels will bring what Im looking for. Also, quit trying to sell us stuff!!! Im here to play your game, not to look at what else is available.
Like the game but it keeps crashing since our iPhone operating system updated. Cant even play now.
Game moves fast but too many hidden words that should be used.
We love this game it challenges us as well as exercising our brain. We love that we can pause our game and come back to the same place later on.
We love this game, but we dont like that you have to play it every day or you get punished by going back to the beginning. What is this Mother May we.
