User Reviews for Word Warp - A Word Puzzle Game

One of my all-time favorites!

Even though they are running an ad after each word set I find it good brain exercise. I have been playing for years and personally don’t tire of it. There are still words that are very challenging. This is an update added on to my original review. The app was just updated and I think they messed it up more than helped it. The two primary things that I noticed are different that I do not like are:1) The touch response seems less sensitive. It is more difficult to get the touch to respond each time.2) The letters stay constant in the position for which they are ordered at the beginning of each session. I liked when they would re-order depending on how each input occurred. It definitely hampers prompt wordplay which is part of what I really like about playing this game.I will still play the game but will also be looking for another anagram game although it is anticipated it will be hard to find one that I like as much as this one

2 stars because it used to be great

I wouldn’t review it or even keep it if I’d only used the latest version. This has been an app I’ve used daily for years but the latest version has me ready to delete it. I’ve really enjoyed it. I’ve put up with the endless ads with the recent versions, but now they’re longer and more insistent in their presentation. Added to that, it’s buggier than heck (never used to be) and slower to load. I’ve quit the app multiple times because I think it’s frozen, only to find out I just have to wait. I’ve been presented with screens where it says my score is zero and it only displays one word (the six letter word) to fill in. The pause function only works sometimes. I’ve gotten out of the app during play and gone back in only to find my score has been reset to zero. It has been turned into a piece of junk. Probably tracking me too. I can’t recommend it. If you’re an advertiser within this app, I would spend my money elsewhere.

Do NOT download this app!!!

In the name of all that is decent, run now. A month ago, they started running ads after EVERY Word Warp game instead of after every few. I don’t like it, but I can accept it. But over three weeks ago, they started running an ad that plays loud music every time it plays. Not welcome at times when you’re playing discreetly, obviously. Within a week, this ad started playing after EVERY single game, without exception. Their customer support strung me along, promising me that they would “take care of” this...at one point telling me that HAD taken care of it. They have not; it’s STILL running after every game, and they’ve stopped responding now. What I can’t believe is the sheer idiocy of thinking they can do this without offending players both loyal and new (not to mention the sheer idiocy of the advertiser imagining that this ad is doing their company any good). Please...boycott stupidity. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP!!! UPDATE: I was told by technical support that they would be working to remove the offensive ad with the soundtrack, but that it would take “several weeks to do the programming.” (Why?) As it turns out, they lied. When I checked today, this same offensive ad was still playing after almost every game. But just now, I find that a brand new ad has been added — and it also has a soundtrack that plays loudly. This is beyond unacceptable. I repeat: DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP!!! And please, boycott every other product this lame company produces.

Never Gets Old

“This is the only game I can't stop playing. I've had this game since iPhone 3G, and though it's not perfect, I'll keep playing it as long as it's supported. There isn't a feeling more exhilarating than when you're about to run out of time and you still haven't found the six letter word, or more satisfying than when you discover it when in the final seconds. To keep your record streak going. Highly recommend this to word game lovers.” 5 Stars.... I just found this five star review I was contemplating writing a few years ago and then the phone broke and after replacing it I forgot about it. Fast forward a couple years I remembered how much I loved this simple yet addictive game and decided to download it again. Wish I hadn’t as the developer has decided to turn it into a never ending stream of advertisements unless you pay... Now the occasional ad is to be expected on a free game and I can’t begrudge them for ads, but it is literally in between every single round now. It was nowhere near that frequent a few years back and I mean not even close. This great time waster game has became a waste of time since you may now spend as much time watching ads as you do playing a round and that’s with the ability to skip the ad after a few seconds! And why pay to avoid the ads when the money obviously doesn’t go into improving the game. Very disappointed.

Do NOT load this app!!!

You will waste half your time watching ads, some with long videos that you can’t get out of. There is an ad or two after EVERY game you play. Other than the ads, it is truly a great game!! Honest! Too bad they spoiled a great game with all the ads!—————————————————————Update: there are still ads between each game but with the recent 3.4.0 version there is no way to easily silence the audio on the ads and they blare at full volume between games. This prevents you from playing the game when there are people around. In the settings tab on 3.4.0 there is a “Mute audio” box that I have checked about ten times now but when you hit the “back” button at the bottom of the settings screen, the “Mute Audio” box doesn’t stay checked (iPhone 10R) and the ads blare on. This is a bug in the 3.4.0 version that needs fixed.Another issue with the 3.4.0 version is the size of the letter in the white bubbles. They are HUGE in this version. Very little “white space” around the letter. It is annoying and very distracting. Developers; if you can’t fix these issues, please go back to the 3.3.4 version where these issues were tolerable. It seems that you make this game worse with every new version. It truly is a really great game if it wasn’t for all the ads, the blaring audio volume and the HUGE letters in the bubbles. Come on guys, you’re supposed to be developers, let’s get it right and make Word Warp the best game app ever!! Thanks

It Just Keeps Getting Worse

I’ve had this app for years, and the game itself is pretty engaging and a good time waster, but it just keeps getting worse with every update. First there was the adding of more and longer ads over time, followed by ads that take you out of the app to automatically redirect to a browser or the App Store without permission. Then, within the last year, I started noticing that the app messes with the volume settings, often muting my phone volume and ringer/alerts without me knowing or allowing that kind of access. Today’s update added a bunch of themes that no one really needed while completely ruining the app itself. Now all it will do is show the game screen, but I can’t actually play anymore. I tried the typical troubleshooting- closing the app, deleting the app and reinstalling it, etc.- and nothing worked, so I’m leaving this review and deleting the app for good.

Latest update fixed the issues!

Updated review : the latest update fixed all the gripes that were part of my review when everything went to hell (see previous review below). Now things are back to the way it was before they messed with the original winning formula! Thanks for listening to your customers!Original review:I understand the need for ads since I've played only the free version of this game for over a decade. The gameplay and flow was very good prior to the latest major update. This latest update just messed up the flow and feel of the game. It's much less responsive to touch and the font is horrible. In prior versions, when spelling an incorrect word, the tiles would go back into the empty tile spaces in the order that the incorrect word was spelled. This was great. Now, when an incorrect word is submitted, the letters return to the same empty tile spaces that they originated from. This is horrible since it breaks the flow of thought and the visual and motor reflex. Please revert back to the prior look and feel and tile replacement characteristics. I can't play this game as it is.

Goodbye Word Warp

I just deleted this app after many years of use. This used to be an enjoyable, addicting app, but the updates have made it extremely annoying. As others have mentioned, the ads now play after every game and some are really loooooooong. Understand they need to run ads but too many break the flow of the game. Also, you have to be very deliberate about touching the letters which really slows you down. At first I thought it was my phone but I only have this issue within Word Warp. Most annoying is that I never advanced to the next round. Even if I got every word within the allotted time! Did the play rules have change with the updates? Can’t find the answer and won’t stick around to find out. There are better games out there.

I wish they'd make a button for word suggestions

Update: still no ad-free version available and I would gladly pay for it if there were. Frustrating. As so many have said, this app is addictive, but I am continually frustrated by the fact that weird words are accepted while perfectly ordinary words are rejected. I wish they'd allow us to suggest words that they would review and then add to the dictionary. That would be a good feature.Update: I paid for this app so I could avoid the ads, but when I updated my phone’s software, the Word Warp app wouldn’t work. I went to update it, and had to download a duplicate instead, so now I can’t run the ad-free version that I paid for, and that is still sitting on my home screen, but I can play the non-ad-free version which works perfectly on the more recent software, but is full of ads. This is bogus. I paid good money for this app, and expected it to be updated accordingly. There isn’t even an option to pay for it again. Only the free version is available now, which means tons of ads.

It’s become unplayable

I used to really enjoy this game. But ever since they changed it with the loud irritating ads playing after every single round I’ve been playing less and less to the point where it’s not even worth the aggravation anymore, and after years and years of having this game I am about ready to just delete it. If there was an option for a paid version without millions of ads I’d gladly buy it, but they don’t even give the option to pay to remove ads. Yeah, I’m done.Update: I’ve found two better replacements, Wordstock and Jumbline, both you pay a small price for, $1.99, but it’s the same type of game but with no ads.My response to your response: You’re not getting it; it doesn’t matter if we can dismiss the loud irritating ads after 5 or 10 seconds, it’s the fact that we have to deal with this after EVERY. SINGLE. ROUND. It’s not worth it. There’s other games out there. I’ve already downloaded two other games identical to yours that I paid a small fee for with no ads. If you add an option to pay to remove ads completely I may reinstall, but until then you will remain deleted.
