Too many ads. When you are designing they give you three choices for whatever piece you are designing. The problem is only one is a free choice as a result of winning the match but the other two choices either cost you gems or you have to watch yet another commercial. Why do you only get one choice on each piece of design? Every other game like it gives you three choices because you won the round and doesn't force you to watch an ad or pay. Shame on the developers.

Was a fun and cute game... until I had to start spending money and watching ads to actually customize the house. I loved that it was a word based game instead of a match block type, and the graphics are good (though some of the character sprites are... not great looking), but it's really not worth the time or cash, which is super disappointing.

Would give it 5 stars if you had a way to get more stars (to do tasks) by trading in coins or gems for them! Add more word puzzles that are easier too. A person should be able to go through an entire set (of puzzles to get to bonus) so they can enjoy doing the series of tasks more without having to go back and forth so much to get the stars for each task. This would put this game at the top of the list! Even with the crashes I have dealt with! It would easily get 5 star ratings then.

This was a rather disappointing game... The concept is fantastic, but it's very poorly executed. Even though it gives you "3" options, 1 looks cheap, 2 you have to watch an ad for, and 3 you have to pay gems for. It works the same way for the story choices, so not even the story can save the game. There are so many better home design games than this, so I recommend playing one of them.

The actual word game is fun, and I like the decor part of the game. But having to click through 15 different statements from the character every time I take an action, like choosing wallpaper, is just exhausting. Sometimes you get to participate in the conversation, barely. But you have to watch ads to be able to choose responses that make sense. When the doorbell rang and my only free option was "ignore it", I finally uninstalled the game.

A cute, fun word game. It tells you why the house is in such bad shape (a pet peeve w/ these games). I love how Rex says what we all think when we play these games. There are side puzzles w/separate rewards. I also love that you get a choice for what decision she makes without having to spend money. There are ads, but they are not overly long and you get to leave a number of them early. The only suggestion I have is to make the difficulty move a little faster. It's to easy for to long.

Controls are slippery during puzzles. You can't change an item once you've selected it. It's really frustrating when you're guessing words like crazy and they just keep going in bonus words. Bonus words which are good for nothing. Other games give you coins after so many bonus words are collected. Also, it went real fast up to having to have five stars for everything. Really annoying when all you're doing is answering a stupid call or message.

I like that this game has good graphics and it's a word game instead of the same 3 match puzzles for a renovation game. What I dislike about the game is the ads. That normally does bother me (I know they have to make money somehow) but there's an ad after every few levels and in order to choose different designs I have to use diamonds (which costs real money) or watch yet ANOTHER ad. What's the point of passing the levels if I only get to choose one free design option? I'll be uninstalling.

I was actually really enjoying this game and even paid to remove the ads, but once you get 350 levels in, suddenly you have to solve 3-5 just to complete one tiny task. The puzzles get so ridiculous that I've found 30+ bonus words in some levels before I find a SINGLE real answer, and hints cost way more than you gain through playing, so even though I paid to remove ads, I have no choice but to watch them. I've resorted to looking up answers just to get it over with and get back to the story.

I really do like the game it's fun challenging but easy at the same time which is good for me because I interest so easy. I just wish they hadn't changed star setup where when you first started out you only have to use one star for every task but now they take four or five for each task. At least they could have done when they did that was give you more stars in every round.

This has so much potential to be great. The graphics are great, storyline is enjoyable and the puzzles are hard, but easy ones are always thrown in. I'm on level 300something, and I have 2 complaints. The number of ads can be ridiculous and the number of stars I now need to do 1 simple task is unnecessary. I want to keep playing but I'm sure I'll uninstall it soon as it had stopped being fun and relaxing.

This game is a lot of fun, but it has a few drawbacks. When starting, 1 star was all you needed to decorate something new. Once you get into it, it requires 4-7 stars. And the puzzles only ever hand out 1 star at a time, whether it's a big puzzle or a minor puzzle. It has a good storyline, but sometimes you waste stars on random actions, like checking your text messages. Can be frustrating - 3 out of 5.

It was fun while it lasted. I got to around level 275 and my video ads stopped working. So I could never choose an option that required that. It messed up the way I wanted the story to go and what decorating option I wanted. So I uninstalled and reinstalled. Still an issue. Says "Can't find video, try again later". I didnt even care about all the ads either. I liked the game that much. I'm sad I cant play anymore. So 2 stars, one for the cut off game play that I had and one for the story line.

Great concept, ok execution. I love that this combines my favorite types of phone games of house decorating and word games. I also love the simplicity so I don't get stuck on levels and not touch the game again for weeks or months. I'd be inclined to pay for no ads if it was done better. The story line is a bit much. I honestly dont care to follow along and have just found myself skipping it. Also the best choices are only obtainable with gems. Just meh.

It reminds me of the game Gardenscapes. I like redecorating games, and I like that it is a word game instead of match 3. But it seems like they're money hungry. There's an ad after nearly each level with no option to buy the game to remove ads. The ugliest decor is always free, you watch an ad to unlock the second best, and you use 3 gems to unlock the best one. And you only get one gem every 10 levels or so. The alternative is buy 35 gems for $13. The prices and ads are ridiculous.

This game was super fun in the beginning. I couldn't wait to redecorate the rooms and the scramble words were not difficult to win. As the game progresses , however, it seems like there was a scramble game even for conversation between the characters. Then the scramble words got much much harder. I lost interest and finally I deleted Word Mansion. It was fun while it lasted.

I absolutely love playing this game. It's by far my favorite. BUT, the puzzles are ridiculous. When you get to higher levels, it's extremely hard to figure out the words. Plus instead of having to use one star, it's asking for 3-4 stars for each step that only takes maybe 1 second. I have uninstalled this game several times and fixing to again. You spend way longer trying to figure out one word then being able to truly enjoy the storyline. I got further this time in the game and hate the stress.

This has been both fun and frustrating at same time. But the thing is I usually delete games when requiring more than 2 stars, but the plot keeps me going, and reminds me of words haven't used in long time. So therefore 5 stars for plot,entertainment and educational with words. Makes you stop and think. I do have to use hints,cause when I run thru my words,then hint reminds me of other words. Farthest I've been with this game😁. Why is game freezing up?

It's pretty fun and the plotline moves along nicely. The word lists get tricky the longer you play until you start coming across really, really obscure words. (Review edited) However, while it originally only takes one star to progress conversations and multiple stars to decorate, when you get to the best friend's apartment, it suddenly requires 5 stars to just chat back and forth. That's tedious.

It's a great game, but some of things that cost stars shouldn't. Like answering the door or looking at texts, it's tedious to beat levels and then have half of the stars go to dialogue that doesn't seem very important. Other than that it's fairly simple and easy, and unlike some games it actually sticks to what they show on the ads.
