Update: unistalled! advice from creator? pay to remove ads! my issue is not with the ads, its the sheer volume of ads used to force people to pay! I have been playing this game for a while now and all of a sudden the ads have went mad! Played a game and got an ad every 30 seconds! just ruins the fun of the game. before they answer "we need ads to allow...blah blah blah". This is excessive and just a money making ploy! you will lose people's commitment to the game for pure greed.
Ads every turn, absolutely ridiculous. Not even short ones. painful!
People making up words that aren't even words.
TOO MUCH ADS.
the game is good, but the ads sickening 😕 so one star
Ads keep popping up,right when trying to think of a word,alot of game developers never learn and it's the same ad,you developers, people aren't interested in games with ads all the time,if it wasn't for that,it would be a good game,
ad frequency is designed to be overly intrusive so people will pay $8 month for ad-free, which is an absurd amount. Uninstalled almost immediately. Shady developer tactics piss me off.
Fun game but number of ads is ridiculous.
Too many ads! Enjoyable but the ads are too many and annoying.
This has happened twice in a row now that you get the final daily chest for the gold cards after 12 days and it doesn't give it to you. it just prompts another daily game a few hours later and then gives you day 1 again. the ads are absolutely outrageous. I do not usually mind for free games but 3 ads after every word as well as they crash the app. open temu and Amazon prompting you to re load the game again that takes forever. having no ad buffs. 5 minutes is a joke.
I am prepared to pay but not a monthly subscription, the ads and mandatory video ads becomes unbearable for a pleasurable game play experience
it's not just bad that I can't play the game offline, it's even more terrible that annoying ads will be popping up more frequently thereby making the game frustrating and unenjoyable
way to many ads.. spend at least 50 percent of time wading thru ads. greedy people.. uninstalling game!
way too much ads that you can enjoy the game anyone.
too many adds....adds every after a move. really frustrates...I wish they could be reduced
i finish the word search for the day and it takes me back to when i still have like 3 more to go, and it messes with the lenses i receive hence the reward. been going on for too long
So many ads. Sometimes after every turn, you get either one or two ads that you can't skip, that have fake exit buttons that take you to an external page if you try to press them. After every turn. I don't think I've ever experienced so many ads in an app/game. It makes me think that the developers have given up on playability, and are essentially just trying to cash in on as many ads as can possibly be crammed into every nook and cranny of this game. Terrible! I just want to play scrabble!
Even if you play "classic" with no "boosts" people can still pay to cheat. Greedy devs don't care about offering a fair game, only about getting people to spend money, even if it ruins the game and makes it unplayable.
This game cheats on a regular basis. When you get close in score, it gives you only vowels and 1 point letters. This is a pattern i noticed after many hours of play, not just a glance. To the creators: One does not feel "challenged" in gameplay when the repeated losses are so obviously engineered into the game. They only feel cheated. I will trash this version and seek out a version that utilizes randomization as a means of tile distribution.
PLEASE STOP THE TWO MINUTE ADVERTS!!
so many stupid ads, Scrabble is for concentrations without frequent distractions ffs
I am completely done with this app/game. accidentally clicked on one the hints and it my diamond. y'all need to add a pop up asking are you sure you want to use your diamonds. I was saving my diamond and now I hardly have any left. kinda ridiculous

love the game, keeps my mind active. don't object to adverts but i am honestly fed up of the false AI adverts for boots, they are a scam and I am totally surprised that you condone the behaviour of these unscrupulous people who are extracting money from desperate people. STOP not the adverts I object to as I explained. it's the contents
Horrendous performance. It's a pretty simple game, there is no reason for this to be so poorly optimised. A bunch of annoying bloat getting in way of the actual game
I paid for the bundle hoping that would stop the ads, but no, the ads even came more.
keeps opening other apps. It's not my phone, it only happens when I play the game.
