8 of 25The game and app are fine overall, though they need to allow people to opt out of allowing the cheats like trading tiles without losing your turn. And now it looks like they may have fixed the problem whereby you used to have to watch these hideous notices of rewards that aren’t important and that came in endless succession (the notices) and you couldn’t skip them. So, good. Solid app that i wish gave you more freedom to choose which cheats you and your opponents could elect to employ or not. Hence my nickname. Come play me!
Non stop ADS all over the screen and with every word played
Words with friends used to be the best. Unfortunately, they got rid of the pass and play feature, so you can no longer play on one device with a friend who is sitting next to you. They have also added way too many AI bots, visual stimulation, and strange side quests and challenges. Would love to see an actual classic version that includes some of the old features.
In the middle of a round I was force-fed an ad that took me to one of those “your phone may have been hacked, click here for support” malware websites. This is absolutely unacceptable. Avoid this game for your own safety!
What happened to the share the club game with fclub members? If you want to change something get rid of the ads, especially for those of us who paid for the game way back when.
I turned off game notifications, but after I was forced to update app they now pop up constantly and require a response every time. I deleted and reinstalled app to no avail. This is a poorly imagined and maintained app that seems eager annoy. It could be so much better. Also, could the reviews possibly be more biased??
This game is fun However, the app freezes up every so often on my iPhone. No explanation I have to close out the whole game and then start again. The other issue I have is in the club game store. I've got over 10,000 tokens, but it goes to a blank screen every time I try to enter into the store. The issue has never been resolved and I've mentioned it here a couple of times. hope this gets resolved sooner than later.
Listen I was not expecting much from this game when my dad downloaded it for me to play with him but it’s an amazing game and I enjoy it immensely when the people your playing against can’t play back it has other levels for you to complete it’s never boring and I’m actually learning something from the experience.
