Lately, the game has been displaying the coin count underneath the hole in the screen for my camera, meaning I can't actually see how many I have. Wasn't doing that before, but it is now, and I can't seem to fix it. It's extremely annoying. The gameplay itself is reasonably fun, though I often found myself stumped on what I felt to be awkward word combinations. So I'd end up spending too many coins on a single word. Some lines feel like crossword answers, which is too hard for this format.

Kind of a scam. The game should allow you to try more than 1 game/chapter at a time. By not doing so, if you get stuck on any single word (or when a clue is a poor match for the answer) you can't progress at all. This is clearly trying to get you to spend real money to buy hints. So the game is fun, but it's no different than any of the purchase content ads that you are forced to watch through play.

Good (if not overdone) concept, nice layout, but extremely difficult as the "phrases"...aren't really common sayings. None of them were common or intuitive. I am usually pretty good at these types of games, but I had to use all of my hints on the first 5 puzzles and when I tried to watch an ad to get more it just... doesn't work. I am on Google Play Pass so that may be a conflict with that as that version is "ad free" but there is no other way to get hints (I assume without paying).
