Liked the game starting out but now past level 550 and it's not challenging. Hasn't been challenging for a while. But anyway, way too many ads. Read one comment that stated "no ads". Like to know what game they are playing. Read past comments about too many ads, it has not changed. There are ads after EVERY level. I understand it helps keep games free, but come on. After every level, it's ridiculous. Will uninstall and try find another game.

Many, many long ads. The game itself is good, better than others I tried, but the ads just kill the experience... I understand they need money for development, but c'mon, there's an ad after every level! And some of these you can pass within 30 seconds. Then there's some ads that are ok, but also 30 second and what seems even longer ads. It's just crazy, the other games are not as ad heavy imo. Please reconsider the decision of sliding "show ads" to 100/100, you'll keep more customers happy.

This game is fine. Nothing special or different. The dictionary is ok, but there are lots of words missing. The most frustrating thing is the way the free spin wheel is rigged to NEVER give you a decent prize. I've found it best to play with WiFi rturned off, otherwise the ads are intrusive. With no ads, it's a good time wasting game. With ads you spend more time watching ads than playing, and the ads are way too long.

The game is nice but it gives you 8 levels in a row, then prompts you to rate the game. After that, you get an add after every single level you play. Basically, I play a level in 30 seconds and have to sit through a one minute add. Only get the game if you intend from the start to pay 10 bucks to remove adds.

As of Aug '25, very frustrated with new, long ads, most all touting other games. Once this change happened, I went through days of trying to get back to the game page from these ads, mostly unsuccessfully. Even uninstalled a few times, which changed nothing. Finally found the formula, which forces you to go through 3-5 pages, incl being taken to the Play Store, to get back to the game. Hate this. Enjoyed game, no more. Looking for a substitute.

I've played 30 levels, but I'm still only getting games with words that are only 3-5 letters. You would think that as you progress in level, the words would become longer and more complex. Wrong. They stay the same, which makes it boring and unstimulating. I'm going to delete the app. The games also frequently feature the same word twice. For example, you might have the words "Cost" and "Costs" in the same game. Same word, but in plural version. This happens often. Terrible feature.

I'm playing the game in Spanish. After you complete a few levels, the words begin to repeat constantly. The rules are unclear. For example, some conjugated verbs are accepted, but others are not. Additionally, some words are not recognised, while others that are not in the official Spanish dictionary are :(

It's a fun game that hopefully helps keep the mind active and the IQ up but what frustrates me is the number of words that it doesn't recognise; and I'm not talking about rude words, neologisms or slang, I'm talking about common English words. It would also be beneficial to be able to choose between the default American English and British English

This is a fun time killer. My biggest gripe with it is the lack of challenges. It repeats the same words over and over. Add a letter s or the root of a word etc. I think this is aimed toward more of grade school level intellect. Also, I've been unable to figure out how to use the gems or how to earn coins.

The timer on ads is shorter than other free games. Ads only occur between levels or when chosen to earn rewards. The dictionary is extensive (getting credit for words not in their puzzle). The difficulty of words is kept to a fun level. My only disappointment so far is how often the puzzles are looking for both the singular AND plural of lots of words (example: Both "carrot" and "carrots" or both "run" and "runs"), and that's only a disappointment because of the ease of just adding an "s".

I like word games and this is probably one of the best. Not too much hassle with ads. You earn gems that you convert to coins. Coins are the in-game currency. With these, you can buy avatars, previous or missed levels, and even speed up waiting times. It does have one issue in my mind regarding completing previous countries. I have to swipe right over 40 times to get to unplayed levels, and this is going to get longer...

This game started off good. There were a few annoying things but nothing to make me stop playing. What did it for me are the length of the commercials. They started off around 20 seconds. Now they've just recently went to 45 second commercials. I'm done, everything you do causes a commercial to pop up. I've wasted so much time just waiting on commercials. It's ridiculous. Advertisers have ruined these games.

Used to love this game, but it has now gone bad and despite several interactions with support, there has been no improvement. Both my wife and I have the same issues. The Lucky Wheel just does not work without repeated attempts, so it is frustrating. The game constantly restarts from the beginning, something which never happened previously. If the app. has become corrupted, then you should be able to uninstall and reinstall without losing your place. Please address this issue.

its a very nice game in principle. I understand the add on thr bottom of the screen. but another ad between every level? i spend more time watching ads than playing the game. And I am not paying 10 euros for a casual pocket game. real games without ads and storytelling can be bought at this price

How should I rate this game? That's a tough one! On the very first board (in the advert) I entered "KIT" and "HINT" and they were rejected as non-words! Maybe the game should be called "Words of Alien Species" ?? Anyway, there are FAR too many adverts, and they take ages to disappear, so I'm uninstalling now.

I have never played a game with more ads and click-bait than this game, Words of Wonders. I find that 85% of time spent with this app open is clicking x's and double arrows to escape prolonged ad abuse. The game itself is fine, but prepare yourself to be completely inundated with ads and click-bait.

the ads are very long, you will spend more time on adds than game. Not to mention the candy crush adds you can't get out of it , after waiting forever to finish if you touch the + always to play store. it constantly hijack your phone you constantly have to exit the game an try again becomes tedious.

I used to enjoy this game a lot but of late it's become impossible to do so because it is now loaded with ads,infact, there more ads than the frequency of the games I play. Ads not only after every single stroke of play but those that keep displaying at the bottom that opens up quickly when your finger goes close to their "terrain " making you visit the site unwilling. I keep closing the app and restarting but it's a NIUSANCE! These tons of ads are not just annoying but unwanted and disturbing

I enjoyed the game for a while. Unfortunately I quit playing it because of the ads. They have to play for about 30 seconds before you can click off the ad and go back. And now an ad plays in between every single level. It takes less time to pass the level usually. So I would spend more time watching ads than playing. I would love to play a game like this with no ads or at least shorter and less frequent.

Developer is confused and thinks people download apps to watch ads. I have played quite a few games, and this is by far the worst for time spent seeing ads. Everything about the game play is designed to force you to watch another ad. it's beyond stupid. You move up to "hard" words, and they are still easy. Although, perhaps the developer finds them challenging, which would explain why the game is the way it is. There are much better games out there. Avoid this one.

Very nice game to pass the time. I'm at level 2878 (little flex hihi). Two questions though. The weekly pass says "No Ads". Yet, after subscribing to the pass, I still have to watch an Ad if I want a bonus while I'm in a level. Also, I still get an Ad for every single use of the spinning wheel for prizes. Therefore I give 2 stars. I'll change it to 5 stars if it gets fixed (or if it gets explained to me why it's not included in the subscription).

its decent enough to play. im almost on level 250... still waiting for it to get harder. its pretty easy. not enough challenge. maybe create a setting for harder ones for people who want tougher words? also, the ads are scammy. you touch the x and it still takes you to play store half the time. I understand ads are needed to keep it free but they're just too scammy for me. but.... it is decent enough to play. not a bad game. Just a couple tweaks would be nice and maybe make it a tad harder.

I like the gameplay, but the pop-ups for side content are constant and aggravating. The ads additionally take place after every level, exceed 60 seconds, and demand interaction to progress and close. I liked how there's an option to pay to remove the ads ($7.49 one-time fee), but that's rather steep for what you get. Uninstalled.

I am going to uninstall for the second time. The fortune wheel stops at least 3 to 4 times per week on the lightning ?, which if you play offline gains you nothing. Secondly the daily challenges can in no possible way reach 160 emeralds in one month if it unlocks once a day. The words are very difficult to find, which is fine, but the there ate known words that the game doesn't recognise. Good bey....

Game is good but the adverts are annoying. If I try and close then it takes me to the adverts on the play store, I have to keep closing the game down and reopening it to continue which is very frustrating Edit - (response to reply). I'm not sure how to send a screenshot to you.. If I wait for the advert to end then click the close button, it takes me to the shein app on Google at store, rather than closing the ad and taking me back to the game

Too many LONG ads. Lost my phone and had older version with 82,000 points. Company could NOT get my points back and I had to start over from level 1. Horrible. Old version didn't have these long ads and allowed you to skip over them. No longer worth playing. In-between almost every round a LONG ad. I uninstalled.

I love the game and will be buying the paid version when I can afford it. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is the frequency of the ads. I have no problem with ads on free games. You do have to make money after all. But, once you hit a certain level, there are 3 ads after every. Single. Level. It's a bit much, yeah? I just stopped playing until I can pay because it's so damn annoying.

obviously know Ads are part of the curse??but has anyone had really long ads ,then the game starts you off at the beginning,I mean it turns off and restarts so you probably loose higher bonuses?? unsure if it's my device but as it's new I highly doubt it! other than all that great game to pass and hour v quickly and it actually does help your memory, vocabulary,spelling and English intelligence (although some words are harder slightly,as they're American spelling ! Good fun!?

Thought I'd found a good app game. There are some algorithms most can figure out to do well. I'm generaly 2nd or 3rd place during contests on WOW V 5.2.20. It has an acceptable number of ads. I'm a retired Exec. Marketer. I get how ads can fund "FREE" app games. The problem are fraudulent adds lke the Boxhero "Bamboo Boxers" you watch the ads u0026 get interested enough to buy. 1)they bait u0026 switch. 2) they ask for email u0026 eventually SMS PERMISSIONS u0026 no codes. Then Delete app. too bad.
