Every. 60. Second. Ads. Literally. I love this game, but I stop playing because every turn is followed by an ad. Turns are 60 seconds long. The ads are 3 and 4 tier ads too, so not just quick skips. And don't even try to play a tournament because then the ads are every twenty seconds and you can't focus on the words. This game requires the sound to be on to hear the clock ticking and half the ads can't be muted. I understand the need to make money, but this is helacious and infuriating.

Could be fun with less ADS!!! It is fun. But the amount of ads is ridiculous. It's after every play! I would consider actually paying for no ads, but that price is ridiculous as well. It's a shame, it could be a 5-star game. It's a good concept, but there are so many other games that don't force the ads on you after every single play. Reduce the ads and the price for ad-free and I will reconsider my one star review.

Was great for the introductory phase... Made it seem like ads would be of little-to-no issue, even. But once you're past that- yikes. Every little thing is not only micro-transactioned to Hell, but the ads are so difficult to deal with. I usually don't complain about the amount of ads, but their frequency was just too much. Are put out so fast and in such a way that they trick you into clicking them. It just feels shady; and unfortunately, overshadows the enjoyment the game does bring.

Really loved this game. However, twice when I wasn't playing, I would get notifications stating that the money didn't go through for the subscription. I didn't request a subscription and, the second time there was no way it could have gotten picket dialed. I played it through Mist, so.it is possible that made a difference, but none of the other games I play through Mist do this. The sketchy app behavior has made me uninstall this.

HOW I AVOID ADS - Only Android / Samsung users I think.. but anyway, in Developer Mode (under settings- Google how to access, if you're unaware), I select option to immediately kill all app activities & no background services, so no ads pop-up ! But also means, if u click out, gotta wait for app to re-load, can't use hints or watch videos for coins etc. So positives & negatives , I guess:)

Love the game itself but this app is complete trash!! Way too many ads, more than normal and right in middle of ongoing games. Half the time moves won't submit and it makes it so you have to leave the app and reopen it. I would love to give this more stars but I'm just not happy with how horrid the ads are!!

Love the game,it sharpens your mind. Only issue is when playing, upon it being ones turn it goes into loading mode & doesn't stop. One loses their turn & all progress. Don't know if it's a glitch. It's disappointing. when your in the middle of the game & can't complete. Otherwise it's a very educationl

I really like this game. Except for the ads. Due to the ads, I decided to purchase the one yr subscription for no ads. Up until this week things were fine. This past week I can't even get on the app. It goes through the start up but doesn't finish. I paid for a yr I only got a month out of the subscription. I want a refund for the next 11 months. I had previously playd this game and couldn't remember why I quit. This happened to me the last time too. But I didn't buy anything.

Ads GALORE! Seriously, the amount of ads is ridiculous. There is an ad after every turn, ad at the top of the screen, popup ad before your "roll," random ad for this, random ad for that, and the ads don't load properly too, causing you to completely close out the game and reboot. You can pay so much for a limited time of no forced ads. The idea of the game is fairly great.

I had to edit my review because as much as I like the game, it lags horribly, and there are constant interruptions for ads. I don't mind as much when I use an ad to get extra time, etc., but I hate it when the games lag, and just when I'm getting a rhythm, there's an intermission. Absolutely irritating! Please work on it!!

Daily challenges has glitched multiple times over the last 4 months. Just went to play and again it asks if I want to lose my streak or pay 250 coins. Unless you buy coins there's no way to keep it and not fair to the player. They should not have to pay in order to keep the streak they have earned. Wasn't going to leave such a low review, but after rebuilding a 40+ day streak and it resetting again, it's appropriate. Please fix this issue.

Challenging and fun for the most part. I downloaded to use with Swagbucks, but after a couple of days of playing to level 12, I have yet to get credit or even acknowledging that I have downloaded. The puzzles (Medium level) become predictable after a while of playing (half stars not available so therefore 4 of 5). There are several different events to keep playing which I do really enjoy.

This game is fun. I'd give it 5☆ if it weren't for cheaters. I often open the game to find challenges. That means there's time between the challenge & the start of the game. Cheaters study the board in that time & come out playing 5 letters, hitting bonus tiles every turn. If they only win 30-50%, they're not that good. If you play a rematch w/o giving them time to study, they won't play nearly as well. You can block cheaters. A solo game has ads pop up mid-puzzle, & the emojis are annoying.

So. Many. Ads! And glitchy. An ad after every turn. Half the time it doesn't let me go to the next game after an ad and I have to close snd reopen. Ads on your play screen that are in the way at the beginning of your turn. Can't wait until I complete all the goals for this from my money making app so I can be done!

Love the game, it's fun! However, I only give it 2 stars because of the ads. Would you like a small game served with your ads there ma'am? It's absolutely ridiculous! I ended up not even playing the game anymore because it was so many ads and I just ended up getting pissed off. The price that they want you to pay to disable the ads is ridiculous as well. I can understand a few dollars but if you figure it up over time it's a lot of money and the game is fun but not worth it!

I've played this game for a few years, and the ads were always annoying, but at this point, between the ads and the battery drain, the game is UNPLAYABLE. Half the time the ads don't work, both forced ads and rewarded ads, or they play but you don't get the reward anyway. And now they have ads that stay on the screen during the match! They cover the letter tray and part of the board, and you can't x out of the ad even after the timer starts! And the game will drain your entire battery. I'm done.

It's a fun game, what a shame it's filled with 30 seconds ads after every puzzle/turn. I paid for ad free, guess what - STILL ads. The ads range from 5-15 seconds and still appear after turns. Now there is a new ad, it appears in the playing area and I have to wait for it to finish to take my turn. Do better, especially when people are paying for no ads!!

I would give this a higher rating if it weren't for the ads. The game is fun and different. I like it. But the ads, man. It says I get a "free spin," but to get the prize, I have to watch an ad. Some of the modes of play have ads that pop up in the middle of playing. Super annoying. I will watch an ad to get coins or whatever. You don't have to shove them in my face. Also, I'll choose not to watch an ad to get a prize, and it will show me an ad anyway.

I like the game but too many ads and lots of bugs it's always freezing and the ads don't load properly I am constantly starting over it gets annoying! Way too many shady ads! I give up! I have yet to be able to play a game without a glitch that sends me back to the begining, between this and the freezing and too frequent ads I am uninstalling this app Please fix this! I liked the game too bad!

Fun game. The ads are irritating. Several times, I've been interrupted in the middle of a timed turn with an ad and the game doesn't pause. I've had phantom ads playing in the background. I can't see it, but the audio it's running and there's no way to stop it. If I choose to watch an ad for a powerup, I shouldn't be forced an ad immediately after my turn. The battery drain is pretty bad and my phone gets hot if I play for too long. I'm also pretty sure that most of the opponents are just ai.
