About this game

Lingo is a word game inspired by a popular game show in which you guess the words. Your task is to guess five-letter words (main game mode).

How to play?
The rules of the game in each of them are similar - your task is to guess words in several attempts.
Lingo has a few game modes:
- 4x4, 5x5 and 6x6 - the game modes are similar. You have to guess the words within a certain time. The differences between them are described below:
- four-letter words in four attempts,
- five-letter words in five tries (default mode, like in gsn game show) and
- six-letter words in six tries.
- 5 Rounds - you must guess the five-letter word. The main difference is the limited time game and plays only for five rounds.
- Time Trial - Your goal is to guess as many words as possible in a given time.
- No Time Limit - there are no time limits here. The game is over when you fail to guess the word in five tries. In this mode you guess five letter words.

Each letter of the entered word is highlighted on screen in a specific color:
- green - word contains the letter and is in the correct position.
- yellow - word contains the letter, but not in correct position.
- blue - the letter doesn't exists in the word.

Scoring:
- 4x4, 5x5 and 6x6
- Word guessed on the first attempt: you get 5 points
- Word guessed at the second attempt: you get 4 points
- Word guessed at the third attempt: you get 3 points e.t.c
- 5 rounds game and Time Trial - The sooner you guess the word - the more points you will get. In this game you play only for five rounds.

Bonuses (only in 4x4, 5x5 and 6x6 game modes):
- Every 5 correctly guessed words - you get an extra life.

If you get stuck on a guessed word - you can use a hint.

Have fun and guess as many words as you can.

Ratings and reviews

3.5 out of 5. Fun game. Some words are repeated, but not too bad. Ads aren't bad. My biggest issue is that if you pause the game, when you unpause, the game starts bugging out. It will auto give you (answer for you) the word even when you still have 1-2 minutes left to answer and it will repeatedly do this. The worst is during time level because it makes you auto-lose. I have to force close the app and re-open. Otherwise, a fun time waster.

Out of all of the Lingo Android apps, I prefer this one. It may not have the collection mechanic of that other one, but it lets you sign in with Google, and it lets you pay once to permanently remove ads. However, I can't give it full stars because it has a bug where if you use the pause feature or minimize the game, the timer clock often gets messed up to the point where it runs two clocks, and the one that expires first loses you a life, and the other partially expired timer carries over.

Was really enjoying this, however the board has just started flickering loads when I try to play, which makes my eyes feel funny, and the colours aren't coming out properly anymore. Also a save and come back to option would be great for some of the unlimited number of words games, as I can play those forever as I keep getting additional lives (esp in the 6 letter ones as you can normally get the word in 6 goes with 6 letters tried each time) !!
