I loved this game as a child on the Nintendo DS, and now I get to play it on my iPhone! So relaxing and fun.

Love this game, but it needs a bug fix!

Word Jong is one of my favorite games! Unfortunately it has been glitching out — upon trying to close the game and return to the menu the app crashes; and when you reopen it, it goes back to a random move in the middle of the last game. The only fix is to delete the app and then redownload it, but then the glitch happens again after a few games. Help! Running a 15 Pro Max on iOS 17.3

Great game, but needs an update

I’ve been playing Word Jong for years. I look forward to opening it in the morning to get the new puzzle. I agree with other reviewers that the dictionary needs an update. I’ve tried to play numerous words that come back as “not in the dictionary” (and, yes, they are definitely words in common usage). If it weren’t for that, I’d give it 5 stars.

Still can't access the Saturday puzzles! Are you EVER going to fix that?

It badly needs an update to continue working and it needs a sync option across devices.

Please move game board over to the left so we can get to Saturday's challenge. I've played everyday for years with the exception of a few Saturday's that I can't open. Love this game!

Please fix the new bug. Unable to play any Saturday games

The high score drop down on the app covers the Saturday column for the entire month making the user unable to select and play any of the games in that column.

Wording accessibility...

Very nice game....it would be nice to be able to access the game at midnight , East coast time. It usually can only be accessed at 3am east coast time.
