User Reviews for Boggle With Friends: Word Game

It kills time, unless you want to play more than 30 mins or so at once

Unlike meatworld Boggle, after a year of play, I've concluded that there's just not that much of a variety of words you ever get the opportunity to play in this app. It punishes you for playing "too much" and forces you to buy tickets or coins to keep on playing--or wait it out. I get that they make money off in-app purchases, but you also have to sit through a constant bombardment of ads and there's no option to pay to avoid the ads--some of which force you to click through to the app's download page to get back to playing Boggle. It also watches your web searches and serves up ads by mining your history, often forcing you to click to a web page you've already seen/gotten the info you need. Worst of all, there seems to be no shortage of creepy guys who try and use it as a nerdy dating method, "you're good with making words with your fingers, what else do those fingers do?" I hate it when random strangers get to chat with random strangers they're playing against because this seems to always be where it goes, but at least you can block players. If I didn't have friends who seem to enjoy this app so much, I would love to never see the app version again. And I adore Boggle in the meatworld, so...

LOVE IT just a few bugs

I’m in love with this game and despite what the other reviews say I love the sounds! The “good” “excellent” “amazing” “INCREDIBLEEEEE” are so encouraging to me !but the main problem o have is that for the weekly leaderboard challenges the scores sometimes don’t reset for certain people each day and they carry the score they got from the day before all week and it keeps adding up. Especially during a 20 point per word challenge someone keeps getting scores of 4000 but then the next day the challenge will be every word must stay in the highlighted tiles which honestly no one is getting more than 1300 in those be honest LOL. But then those few people will somehow have their exact same score from yesterday (4000) and it keeps happening for the rest of the week and at the end of the week they have a total score of 28,000 when the rest of us have like 15,000. It’s not a huge deal but I want the satisfaction of knowing I have a chance at winning. I’m certain this is a bug and not these people getting the same score everyday because sometimes someone will keep a score of 2785 each day or 5123 or something random and there’s no way they keep getting the same random number every single day. It’s also usually the same people that have this bug I think it has something to do with doing the challenge right as it’s about to change to the next days challenge

Extremely buggy but addictive.

As much as I like this game … it is the buggiest app I’ve ever downloaded. Sometimes it’ll just crash or become unresponsive and need to be killed and restarted. Most annoyingly, it crashes on about 4 out of every 5 tournaments I play. (So I tend to avoid them unless one of the daily quests is to play 6 tournament rounds.) Often, when choosing power ups for a match, the “play” button doesn’t change from “play with no power ups” even though I’ve selected three. (A workaround that *sometimes* works is to select a mega power up and then deselect it.) It also often crashes when displaying an ad. In these cases it usually just dies or goes to a black screen and becomes in responsive. It’s also a battery hog. I used to play it daily several years ago, got frustrated with the constant crashing and deleted it. I re-downloaded it a couple months ago and have found it’s just as buggy now as it was then. And now I’m about to delete it again. Sad because it is a fun and addictive game when it works. I wish the developers would put the work in to eliminate the bugs and make it stable, but at this point I doubt they will as some of the same bugs have been there for years. Oh well.

Please fix freezing problem/extremely slow game

Until about a month ago this was one of my favorite games, fast, challenging, and really fun and I consider myself to be a great player. Then, all of a sudden, for no reason that I can determine, the letters started to freeze and made the game so slow that it is now impossible to play it anymore. Every once in a while I go back in to see if the problem has been fixed, but unfortunately it has not yet. I would have deleted the app and started afresh but I’m afraid 😦 I would lose all the points that I have accumulated so far, and I don’t want to do that. Every time there’s an “update” I go back in to see if this problem has been fixed but until today it has not. Other timed games I play, like “solitaire” for example, don’t have this “freezing” problem, only “Boggle”, so it is the app itself which needs fixing. It would be really great if you could fix this as soon as possible so I can continue to play this game that I love, and then I would definitely give it ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you for your help in fixing this defect.

Getting worse

I used to enjoy this game when it was word streak. I feel that it has gone down hill now that it has turned to Boggle. The ads are incredibly long in the new game, and for some reason,In the new game, the algorithm doesn’t match up players that have similar scores. I have no illusion. I know I’m great at this game, but I enjoy it, and know that word games are good for the brain. But without fail, the game matches me with player that have double and triple and sometimes quadruple my average score. ToTheir scores are partly because they’re better (I get that) but also because they are clearly using lots of power ups. Many of these scores are completely unrealistic...even for amazing players. I wish they would match up people that want to use a similar amount of “cheats” or none at all. Now onto the power ups. In Word Streak, I also feel like they are charging a lot more (imaginary coins, which build up VERY slowly, or you can buy with REAL money) to play, and use a single power up (which used to be free). They are clearly pushing players to the point that they NEED to actually purchase coins to play this game with any measure of success. Disappointed that they took a good game and ruining it.

Could be better but still enjoy

I hate the annoying sounds. HATE them and I can’t play with them off as I need to hear whether I’ve already done that word or messed up on my word. It’s just a thing and I need the sound. They could do away with all the annoying “good”, excellent”, “AMAZING”, though. Also the wasted time at the end of a match having to wait for the scores to scroll up and more annoying sounds. My biggest issue, though, is after all of this time I still can’t figure out how to actually earn coins? I may have 50 today and then 18 tomorrow. I realize I use one to play but do I earn them when I win? I’ve googled for this info and read through the FAQ’s and have not been able to find this info. I don’t have coins appear after a win so I’m just lost! As others have mentioned, it’s also frustrating not knowing if an opponent has used power ups. I personally do not use them. I just want to play the game. I do enjoy this game and it’s way better that scramble with friends that hair always had the same words puzzle after puzzle. I do know I’ve played the same puzzles before in this game but that’s not happened enough to make me want to ditch it.

Sounds in Game and Ads Won’t Turn Off

First, it would be great if the app had a settings tab which would enable contact with Zynga. Sadly, their app help doesn’t offer that either. I enjoy this app for the most part. The recent addition of sounds in the power up emoji is awful. I don’t even want these emoji, but I have no choice. They pop in regardless. I now have to turn my sound off on my phone to play, because there is no option to turn these sounds off. Worse is the sound on the ads, to say nothing of the increase in ads and their expanding length. Even with my phone ringer off, the ad sound comes in at full blast. Scary at best, and at worst, it wakes up my partner. Now I have to turn the sound all the way down - even though the ringer is off - and it seems that doing this for one ad isn’t enough. I have to do it on more than one ad for the absence of sound to take. Wake up, Zynga. Not everyone wants to be bombarded with noise when they play. Make an option for no sound, please. Thanks. My rating would be higher save these issues.

Boggle is fun, but lost in the mess of an app

It’s Boggle, which is what I wanted but the app itself is just terrible. When I open the app, I can do one singular thing, sometimes 2, before having to restart the app. It doesn’t fully freeze, you can still scroll up and down but you cannot interact with anything. Restarting app will just perpetuate the cycle, which is what I have to do to play. I have deleted and re-downloaded but still have the constant glitches which are what drove this review.-The app/developers do not offer the purchase of an advertisement free version. I would gladly pay a couple bucks to not watch the same ads repeatedly. I would still occasionally watch ads for power ups and coins, but I personally hate the constant ads. -The coin system and power ups are mildly annoying, but designed for micro transactions for people who play like that. -The app is weird to navigate, the friends listed is only people you’ve already played games with, usually just random Smart Match people. I once found a list of friends, started a game from it and I have never been able to find those friends again. -The tournaments are okay, the tickets aren’t really worth it solely, there should be a few power ups or coins in the 1st place prize. Overall, the game of Boggle is fun, but it gets lost in the applications annoying and constant glitches. It’s not going to hurt you guys to bump up all the rewards a bit, and may even get people to spend more money.

Recent downgrades

When I first started playing this game over a year ago I would have given it 4 stars: perfect except for a bug that prevented daily rewards from being enabled some days and then cleared the bonus for not picking up the daily reward, the daily challenge sending me right back into the daily challenge upon finishing, and rarely the game eating my bonuses by crashing upon starting a round but not refunding the used bonuses. While the game has proven more stable in the last 2 or 3 revisions, developers also added a feature which drops my rating to 3 stars. The game now has extremely distracting sound effects and pop-up visuals in the corner of the screen. Visual data design dictates that motion draws the eye, and the eye should not be drawn away from the board in a game that is time-limited and requires focus. Nor should the sound disrupt one's concentration. The developers should instead add a subtle color change to the whole board to notify players that the game is ending soon, thereby accommodating players who have different hearing abilities without distracting players.The great aspects of this game are that between daily challenges, challenging other players, and tournaments, I can play as much or as little as I want, alone or with others. Aside from the aforementioned, the game is appealingly designed.

Decent game

I have been playing for several years and find that the game has much to keep it I interesting including the tournaments and daily challenge and new bonuses. However it is riddled with bugs which is very frustrating. The daily challenges do not keep track of rankings despite continued promises. The bonuses are not working and the tournaments sometimes fault out for no good reason. Fix the bugs and it would be an awesome game. Don’t fix them and I will likely give up on the game.The new tournament format is terrible. Too few options and actually fewer rewards despite promises of increased rewards. Also daily challenge still does not track rankings. There has been improvement on faulting out on tournaments but still occurs.Update: Continue to be very disappointed with the tournament play options. Also again the daily challenge does not keep track of rankings the way the older version still does. Getting less and less to keep the interest. The bonus board is pretty much a waste with providing more coins than are really needed rather than give tickets and power plays which are much more useful. Seems developers are more interested in making money than keeping the game interesting.
