Word Town: New Crossword Games

Wonderful exceptional brain powered game; however, beginning to agree w/review regarding to ads.... I enjoy them - they gives a lil break into the game and intro to new games as design to do but way too long. Although ads servers it’s purpose but it also create boredom because the interest is lost while waiting especially if it’s a game that’s downloaded. In which I often switch to another game-but it’s 2-3 weeks/ months before I play Word Town. A repeated cycle eventually it may come to deleting a wonderful game. It’s intensified then you need to shuffle w/ little coins therefore you watch an ad instead that seems like eternity because the excitement of completing the board now stress is created- that defeat the purpose of relaxing and feeding the brain. Suggestion; shorten the ads and/or increase more ways to earn coins. 120 a pop goes fast when u excited and don’t won’t the wait. Uncertain w/this game offer buying ads free but the ads frustration prompts purchase- but too many similar games to download opposing to purchase nevertheless a wonderful game.

There is an ad at the bottom of the screen 📺 & Ads after every level. If you answer the phone 📱, receive a text, check your signal, or internet connection another ad (not short ads but long ads close to a minute). If the app is idle for a couple of seconds another ad, not short ads but ads that last up to 60 seconds. Another problem is that you can’t ‘x’ out of the ad, the ad will go to either the App Store or to the website pertaining to the ad. Ads during game play also come up, an ad came up while selecting a word. Also the app becomes non responsive & have to close out of the app. No way to close out if the ad doesn’t play. The daily games are now broken down into five smaller games. With an ad before the game and after each level in the game, just another way to play more ads. Also if you mistakenly touch the ad at the bottom of the screen, the app will go to the page of the ad & when you press “done” another ad appears and you have to wait for the ad to finish before returning to the game. The view videos for points is placed too close to the ads located at the bottom of the screen & is just another way to force you to view more ads. Don’t like the new daily games, takes too long to complete the game. This app went from a good app to basically just a app full of ads, the ads are longer than the actual game.

I’d like to say straight out that I love this game. Some of the words are easily found but others require multiple shuffles. I can see some words that would be successful but can’t get to them without a shuffle. But when I go to reshuffle, the free button shuffle is darkened and I am unable to continue. How many times are you allowed to shuffle before you are denied? If I don’t have the coins necessary (for whatever reason)to purchase what is a person to do? While I hate the adds that are a part of the shuffle, I should not be limited to the number of times I choose to invoke the free shuffle. As a second thought, perhaps the adds could be rotated so one doesn’t have view the same add 6 times in a row. If I already have the game being advertised, or I’m not interested in the game, I shouldn’t have to watch the same add. Change it up each time. Except for these issues, this is really a fun game. The word categories are not easily guessed which makes the search even more challenging. Fix the advertising issue and I give it a 5+. For now it’s a 4.

I Removed the game within hours of downloading it to my phone. Every word search required shuffling the puzzle’s letters - to line up as words. Each shuffle sends you to a pop-up with option to use 120 coins or “remove free”. It is not “free” because I spent 30-60 seconds on each word watching ads to download the same three games repeatedly - so it has a time loss factor cost. If you close the ad you lose the new shuffle that arranges the letters into recognizable words. Time is valuable, relaxing while playing a game should not require watching 30 seconds - one minute for almost every shuffle of letters to shift into place. Sometimes I had to do 4 shuffles to completely get letters in word form, for one word. Depending on the number of words in a particular word search you can spend 3-5 minutes solving a short 5-8 word search puzzle. If the purpose is for users to buy coins, or what ever, after downloading, be up front on the App download - say so! My recommendation is do not waste your time downloading this game if you are not interested in wasting more time waiting and watching dis-interesting ads, repeatedly, encouraging you to download more of the same type time-wasting games, or paying to remove ads. Glad I kept my paper word search books!

I love the whole game, without the ads of course. I had to remove them because they were so annoying and in front. One ad was at the bottom of the page, flashing. I couldn’t stand it and that commercial showed up EVERYTIME I opened the app. But what gets me the most— the fact that a game runs out of words and you have to watch a video or spend coins to shuffle the tiles.. WHY?! It’s not MY fault that I’m not finding words in the order that the game wants me to. And that’s not even how a real crossword puzzle works. There is NO excuse for having to restart the level or forcing someone to either spend coins or watch an ad just to shuffle the tiles because they didn’t find words in the ‘correct’ order you wanted them to. The shuffle should be free, period. ESPECIALLY when there’s “no more words”. Other than that, I like the game. I just really hate the fact I have to watch a video to shuffle the tiles just because I found another word before the others. I hope that gets fixed in the future because now I’m getting that message on (yes, literally) every single level that I play.
