I thought I would give the game a chance even with the kinda bad. currently it is really not as enjoyable as it could be. The ads are super annoying and pop up after each round. The worst tho are the players. I which you couldn't stop unless you filled in every category. I had 3 rounds in a row now with people stopping after 5 seconds, either not putting anything in or just one word. it's gamebreaking, I can't play and lose my 3 lifes in a matter of seconds while you only restore 1 every 30 min.

Thanks for your feedback! To avoid players stopping the game, we suggest playing the zen mode. It's available after level 5 and allows you to play for a fixed time of 60 seconds. For the ads part of the app, we know how annoying they can be. We'll share your review with the team so that they can work something out :)

way too many ads to the point it drains my phone battery. I'm not paying money just to get rid of the ads. I understand some ads, just not to the battery draining extent. It's a shame as it's a good game but uninstalling because of the ridiculous amount of ads. ETA Judging by the reply I got, my review was not understood. I have played other games that have ads to remain free and they are still enjoyable because it's not an overload. I have never, and never will pay to get rid of ads.

We're sorry for the problems you're facing, Amanda. If you wish, you could send some screenshots or videos of the ads that are making your device get its battery drained so fast through the "Contact Us" option ingame, and we'll see what we can do about them for you.

I love the game in itself, but I get annoyed when it often only recognises certain spellings of words, therefore losing half a point when the spelling is quite correct (just from a different country). That is my biggest gripe, especially as you can't challenge it at the time... Overall though, a great game that I enjoy playing. (Being able to autofill would be great too, to avoid typing wrong letters under pressure, but I won't push my luck...)
