Game keeps crashing today!!!
When I swap letters it crashes and goes dark
Old Wordzee
I loved the original Wordzee, played it all the time. Tried the new version for a while… Don’t like it..not a challenge.
Please fix
I updated the game and now it won’t work let me spell out my words . It won’t let me put the words up on the line to spell it out and it won’t even let the word show up. Please fix this used to be one of my favorite games and now it’s getting less and less because you won’t fix the issues.
Are we going to go back to the way it was?
Not sure why they took away the 6 and 7 letter words. The games is not good anymore. Why did they change it?
Addicting
Loved the game, some ads, didn’t mind, now the ads are 5 minutes long every move to play another game to get paid. 🤬
What happened?
It used to be challenging. No longer six and seven letters. What happened?
HOW DARE YOU CHANGE
SO I GUESS EVERYBODY AND THEY MAMA CAN GET WORDZEE NOW HUH ??????WHY WOULD YOU CHANGE THE REGULAR WAY ….why can’t I make a six letter or 6 letter word anymore when playing against opponents. You have took the one stress game I can sit and play for hours and have turned it into a rudimentary level challenge .
BUGS!!!
Love the game, but ready to delete it. All my rewards going towards OLD tiles that I already own. I’m unable to acquire anything new. Ready to give up. And, I spend a lot of money on this app.
Ruined
I play this everyday and today it says there’s an update and you’ve dumbed down the game! I hate it. It’s ruined. Why do you have to dumb things down and ruin it first the rest of us. The elimination of 6 and 7 letter words is ridiculous. Whoever convinced you this was needed should be fired. I’m out.
New update sucks!!!
Update this morning has changed the format and it’s awful! HATE IT! Why are five letter words the longest word you get? It feels dumbed down and I probably will now delete the app. I played this game every day and I found it incredibly satisfying. Please go back to the old format.
Constant ads
If you like a constant bombardment of ads interrupting your game and train of thought, this is the game for you. Some of the ads are even borderline pornographic. You are forced to let the ads run, tap to x-out multiple times and close the App Store that it makes come up, wait for the ad to run more, then x-out again. The ads will also open your browser without your permission, and freeze the app. Sometimes you miss out on rewards because of the ads freezing the app. Support is not helpful.
Lost money
I’ve bought credits and never receive them. Even tho it’s taken from my account. This game sucks and they take your money without giving you what you bought. Find a better game. Haven’t been able to buy new tiles for two months. Continue to ask for assistance but all I ever get is “we are working on this”. Look for another game because I’m not the only one experiencing issues. You’ll be disappointed. Too many glitches. After 3 months , no answers from support. Find a different word game. I’m not the only one having issues!
Daily deals
Would give this game a 5 star rating but I have suddenly lost the ability to acquire daily deals. There’s no way to contact support. Game isn’t working properly so I’m done playing it.
TOO MANY ADS
This game used to be fun. You only had to watch an ad after your first turn. Now it’s after EVERY turn. Thanks for ruining the game, you greedy jerks.
Ads on steroids
At first it was okay. Fun actually. Then the ads after every turn started. On top of the countless ads, the ads started to get longer and longer. Some are 2+ minutes long. So, my wife and I are about to delete the app.
Good game, but developers ruin it
12/29/25: What a way to ruin a game completely. After every turn where you play a word, there is an ad. It never used to be like this. To get rid of ads, it is $5 a month. No game is worth $60 a year. These people are out of their mind. -----11/5 Update: Again, playing the latest Halloween journey. I have played over twenty times. To the point where I have gone form level 17 to level 18 (which is at least 6,000 points and 50 points per game). Not once do I get a tile card that I need. I have only completed one out of the four tiles. Since then, I have only gotten tile cards for one of the other tiles about 90% of the time, but not the last one I need. The other two tiles, I have not gotten tile cards for since the beginning. I am not expecting to be handed tile cards, but again, at what point does one actually obtain it? I have been playing since it came out and spent hours on this to not be rewarded in the end? Seems like a scam to me. So I dropped it down a stay. Also, this game, which I have been playing for about 45 days, is taking up 1.68 GB on my phone. How is this game taking up so much space?! No other game is coming near that - not even my pictures with RAW! ------ I love the concept of the game! However, almost everyone always gets a complete Wordzee which to me is odd unless buying from the app. It is just impossible to get all the letters filled and all of the time. My main holdup is the ads. I do not mean having to watch them, but games these days are now charging monthly as opposed to a one-time fee. I would even pay $15 for this game, but in no way am I paying $5 a month - so $60 a year - on a game. Nintendo Switch games are that much money and then I have it forever. Not only ti repay the same the next year. Food for thought. I noticed that sometimes I watch videos in the shop and the boxes do not give me my rewards. So about five minutes wasted there. However, I am currently playing the Cafe Journey and I am convinced it is a scam. I got most of the tile cards during the first round. Then I completed level 19 and wanted the rest. I have now completed the Journey about five or six times and I am only one card closer that when I finished the first one. Considering I am seven cards away overall, this is crazy. I understand these tile cards are on the rare size. But how many times does one have to commit to a game to get at least one?! I still even get cards for ones that are completed so that is just useless right off the bat. It also really bothers me that they support ads for Pull the Pin or whatever it is called. In today’s era where gun violence is at a high, no one needs a game to be waving a gun at them for messing up. What is this teaching the youth saying that something as simple as you did not win or get your way and you can threaten a gun at people.
Way too many ads
I used to Love playing this game with my friend. But now the endless and intrusive ads have made this game all but unplayable. I recently played three rounds of the Thanksgiving Journey mini game and there was an ad after all but one word played. There are five words per game. That means for 15 words played there were 14 ads. I kept count.
Too many ads
There used to be an ad before or after each game now there are ads almost every time you enter a word. It’s pretty much unplayable.
Not as advertised
This game starts out as many do not as what was advertised. It has a few words and then you have to keep going up to another level. I’m trying to find one that actually starts with about 20 words.
Too many ads
I love this game, if it wasn’t for the ads after every word played i most likely would have kept it , unfortunately the ads are too aggressive and I can’t continue playing. Hopefully in the future this get fixed.
Too many ads
This was my favorite game for over 2 years but recently the ads have become too much. An ad plays every time you take a turn. They also haven’t added anything new to keep the game exciting. It’s incredibly boring and then add all the ads - forget it. I’m done playing. I’m so disappointed.
ADS are LONG & FREQUENT
Please don’t believe the Apple Store ratings on this game. I just started playing it and the game is not even giving me a chance to get habituated or comfortable and it throws super long ads right in the middle of gameplay. It’s not between levels; or not to get rewards; but just like… I started the game 20 seconds ago and here’s a full minute ad.”… I don’t see how people could be rating this game five stars when you don’t even get a chance to get to know it. And with all these games, I would pay to remove the ads if they were a reasonable price! Like $2 or $3 or $4… but, it seems like every game I have on my phone wants between eight and $12 just to remove the ads. These people are freaking insane!
Ads
Game was great, but now ads appear constantly!
No longer any fun to play, may quit.

Recent update sucks
I’ve played this game for 3+ years, and it was great until the last update. Now I have a constant notification, even when it’s not my turn, and it no longer shows my win/loss ratio against opponents. The notification thing is making me seriously consider deleting the app.
Update 👎
The recent update dumbed it down. It isn’t challenging anymore. I don’t play as much
Ads
There is now an ad after each word. And you have to exit out of at least four in game prompts to even get to the daily challenge. It used to be a nice way to start my day. Now it feels like a chore.
Should be 5 Stars but…
This is a 5 star game but after the last update you have taken the amount of ads per game up to an unreasonable level! Why are you insulting us so? I’m a long time player. 5 ads per game is ridiculous. Please dial the frequency back.
Now the Card packs are stuck on 3 sunglasses and 1 shirt. Please fix this glitch. Your help center was no help.

Update
Tile match mania was my favorite part of this game, but the new update is awful.
Down to 2 stars!!
I would have given this game five stars. I have a Wordzee streak of almost 575 days. I will no longer be playing it because now every time you solve a word, a commercial plays. This is something I would play during my downtime at work and I can no longer do it because of the commercials. So much for my streak. Thanks Wordzee 😕
Back Off the Ads!!
I have been playing Wordzee for almost 1200 days. In the past month, the number of ads has increased exponentially! You cannot even get through a game without easily 3-4 ads. Fix it, please.
Game dies
This game just stops working. There isn’t anything I can do to reboot this game. My sister has the same issue. And this is the second this has happened.
What happened to this game?!
I’ve been playing this game for a while now, and it started out fun. But now, the amount of ads I experience during gameplay is ABSURD. Also the audio and sound playback is very laggy.
Annoying
I used to really like this game, and the game itself is fun, but there are so many ads and things popping up that it completely ruins it unless you pay.
No longer get new tiles
I used to play ALL the time with tons of people. It was so fun to earn new tiles but now/after awhile you don’t get cards to earn new tiles. I don’t even have all the tiles and still get nothing toward earning them. Very disappointed. I only play with one friend now.
Excessive Ads = Less Fun
This used to be such a fun app. Ads were annoying but comparable to other apps. I played constantly and always had multiple games going. Took a break for a while and now that I’m back, the ads are out of control. A long ad every 2-3 turns consistently. Not only that, they’re obnoxiously loud. I always keep sound off for all games. My game is set on silent and yet, as soon as an ad starts, it’s blasting. I have to turn sound on and back off again to silence the ad, which I definitely shouldn’t have to do and have never had to do in other apps. Doesn’t matter though. As soon as the next ad comes on, the sound turns right back on. No longer worth my time and I refuse to play the sound game or pay $5 a month for no ads. $5 once, maybe. But not per month. Time to delete.
Too many commercials
I really love this game but once again they give you more commercials than actual game play. Very disappointed with this.
Fun But Too Many Ads & What’s With Your Dictionary?
This game passes the time well enough & is somewhat enjoyable. There is an ad after every word played. How is “voweled” not considered a word in this game but “jezails” is? People also cheat too easily in this game because statistically speaking it’s illogical for the same player to get jezails as their final word 3x in a row. I blocked the player but y’all need to do better.
Furthermore this game counts games where you time out as a loss but if the other player timed out on the game it isn't counted as your win, unless that’s a bug that needs fixing. Wordzee would be much more fun to play with less ads, more accountability & an updated dictionary.
