I don’t mind not getting all possible words, but find it very frustrating how often it does not recognize common words. Examples: route and router, nineteenth and ninetieth. Free but clunky and poorly researched.

No instructions, no way to get out of a game, just impossible for some reason. I do these all the time...just won't take any simple words.

Where are the rules. ? Too many legit words missing Update dictionary please

Good representation of the ny times game, and nice that it can create new puzzles. Unfortunately lots of common words are missing. Needs to use a larger reference list. The ny times game is manually curated for common words and is usually reasonable in its words. Hope this game gets some updates!

Very proud of myself for finding ‘hematoma’ but it’s not a recognized word. I played a couple of rounds, but never got all the words because the final few were so esoteric or, frankly, unique to this game. A frustrating waste of time, when I’m looking for an amusing waste of time!

Update: I think I figured it out. The game doesn’t accept words of eight letters or more. It likes DOMINO but not DOMINANT. Developers, please fix this. It would be so much better. Definitely needs a more comprehensive dictionary. I’ve noticed a few missing words as well. It would be helpful if the words you find were listed in alphabetical order. A button that cleared the input form would be nice as well.

True doesn’t come with instructions, but if you play it several times it is simple to figure out. Your word has to be at least 5 letters. To get out of game hit end.

1. You can’t turn off the sounds so it’s very disruptive to use in public spaces.2. Nothing less than 5 letter words are accepted 3. Common words don’t seem to be acceptable but obscure one are; yeggman??? Really?4. You can’t change or refresh the configuration of the letters. I do like that you can see the total number of acceptable words so you have something to aim for but when reading the list at the end of the game you wonder who put this list together.

There are no instructions, but it’s easy enough to figure out how things work. Graphics are minimal, but functional enough. Only real issue is that too many legitimate words aren’t recognized by the game’s dictionary. And I’m not talking about obscure words, either: BASIC words! Initially I tried to roll with it, accept it as part of the challenge. But as the list of unrecognized words added up, it stopped feeling like an intellectual challenge and started to feel more like a pointless waste of time and effort. With a more complete dictionary, the game would be unexceptional but fine. As is, it is an exercise in frustration.

Rejects correct words that exceed a certain length. Very frustrating!
