Great Until Last Update
Ever since the last update, the app is not properly saving my progress and I get kicked back one to two levels more frequently than not.
Amor eterno
Hija
Not worth even playing for free!!
Way too many ads and it makes my phone get very hot after playing a while. DELETE DELETE DELETE!!!
WAY TOO MANY ADS
There are MANY free games that don’t have this many ads. And if you choose the wrong option to go back to the game,
It will take you to another LONG ad. PlaySimple games Suck!!!

not happy
The ads and in-app purchases are too often!! They even interrupt the game in the middle of the game. What bothers me the most is you cant listen to music while playing the game b/c the ads turn your music off. This happens even if you click no sound or music in settings, and it also happens even if you try to turn off the ad speaker while the ad is playing.
Deleting app now!

Spam ads to steal identity
Some of the ads are ok. Annoying, but ok. Recently several of the ads are AI generated with celebrities promoting “health and weight loss products” that will cost you money and/or steal your identity.
Way way too many commercials.
Deleting what looks like a fun game because the commercials are way too frequent. Deleting and I’m sad. The link to play without commercials doesn’t work.
What are the little characters in the game
Rules
Not truthful
Game advertised one way but when download, it’s just like any other word game. Will delete.
Pop up add
Game was good until they introduced pop up ads during game play. I will quit if the pop ups don’t stop right away.
Awful!
Videos pop up all the time while trying to play the game
Interruptions
I had been playing this for quite a while. Got pretty far. Suddenly I’m being interrupted during a game with advertising. I understand advertising. But not when it’s in the middle of me spelling a word. I deleted my game when it started doing that
Freezes Apple Tablet
I like this game but I’m tired of it freezing my tablet and I have to restart. Also ads that keep sending you to the store. It’s bad enough I have to watch long ads without having to click on 4 or 5 X’s before getting back to the game. Also I can’t delete it off my tablet.

I enjoy the challenge of this game
oyun
reklamlarda oyun baska indirdiginde oyun baska reklamda soru soruyordu o yuzden siliyorum puanda 0 olmadigi icin 1 vermek zorunda kaldim
Stupidity
Game is OK but all the stupid rewards etc. Are idiotic and a waste of time
Good game but misleading
At first I gave 5 stars. It’s like a lot of other word games… challenging and fun. However, it said “no annoying ads”. But this is not true. 5 minutes after installing the App, I was offered “no ads” for $5.99. Immediately, the ads popped up.
How is this as free? I’m deleting the app.

Review
Annoying,can’t play due to ads pop up and replace the game uninvited
Enjoy app except for ads that cannot be closed
Like the and enjoy your app but please fix the ads that will not close. Thank you.
You ruined the game
Pop up ads ruin the game. I was a daily user until the pop ups started.
Too many ads
Too many ads. You claim no ads in your game. Rubbish. Now you even show ads when I’m in the actual game playing.
Was great
I have been playing this game for about 2 years, and have paid so that I can play with no ads. I so very much enjoyed it, but the last 2 months the game has not been saving my place- I often have to replay boards I have done. Additionally, as you progress in your day, you can get to levels such as bronze, silver or gold -depending on how many games you play that day. This also has gone backwards and will not save (30-40% of the time). Just today (not the first time at all) it has kicked me back to the lowest level after I have achieved the gold status twice already.
No, this is not life stopping nor huge concerning life. But, I have sent in 6 reports to the game company, not one reply. I truly can say if it had been like this early on, I would have never continued.

Has potential
In general the game is good but 2 flaws: word choices repeat very often AND worse there are popup ads appearing during the game which they can’t seem to stop despite having been contacted about. Super annoying - so I’m deleting it!
Ads, Ads, and More Ads
Why do you keep repeating the same ads incessantly? This is especially irritating for the gelatin weight-loss ads, which have been proven to be a total scam. They keep repeating, with different people saying the same words. Please stop insulting our intelligence. You should be ashamed of practicing such deceitful tactics.

Just sit back, and enjoy this challenging ‘TOUR’!!
Not worth time
I guess it’d be ok if if weren’t for all the annoying ads
