Ratings and reviews

This game is fun but increasingly frustrating. The algorithm that runs this game takes the fun out of it. If you play long enough and against other opponents you will see that after you win some games and get a decent rank you will start to see some terrible letters in your hands. "Random" drawn letters you dont see a Z X U U U U as common as you do. When I first started I thought the game was pretty fun but the mundain lack of randomness of the tiles takes the fun out of it.

Pretty fun as I've enjoyed the physical game a lot with friends before, now having a blast playing with friends and the computer. A little bit clunky going back and forth between the two ways of playing the game online or in person, but once I get past that it was fine. Also, the frequency of the advertisements is a little bit overdone. Yes I know I have an option of spending a very reasonable four bucks for eliminating the ads, but the ads are a little bit on the overkill side, don't you think?

A really great and fun game! The constant ads are annoying, but they're easy to swipe away. The game does have some minor bugs (like the game board freezing up sometimes) but these bugs will probably be fixed soon in future releases. All in all, a very well-written online game, which is very addicting.
