Ratings and reviews

I was loving playing this game daily, until it stopped recognising that I was playing it. I've lost my daily streak AND no matter how many times I go back and complete the games in the archives, it doesn't seem to recognise that I've completed them. I don't need to have a running streak but my nature means I like to see things completed, with the tick and to see what is now six days incomplete, despite that fact that I HAVE completed them, is almost enough to make me want to delete the app!

I would give this game a full 5 stars except for the fact that one day, when I started my game, it randomly promoted me to sign in and had erased all my progress and badges that I had won. This game is great because there are no ads and really scratches that itch if you like a good word game. But losing all my progress really put a dent in my desire to play it.

For such an incredibly simple game it is remarkably poorly made. It frequently shows an error that asks you to chose between a local save and a cloud save with no information about what is different between the two and might then undo your score, overwrite your turn with the TED bot's turn after which the TED bot will take its normal turn, or simply crash the app. It also frequently fails to commit experience from the Daily Ladder and rolls back your level progress.
