User Reviews for Wordscapes

Simultaneously annoying and fun

Overall, well done, but the dictionary of words is stupidly frustrating, and it’s sluggish. The dictionary includes words like nan, which is not a word at all, despite the provided definition of naan, which is a word. Siesta is not English but it’s in there, while many other non-English commonly used words are not - be consistent, at least. Amnio is found in a puzzle but it won’t accept amnion. Amino is there but not ester (someone needs remedial chemistry). Bro, repo and other slang and abbreviations are also frequently used, which are not only annoying because they’re not proper English words, their use is just lazy puzzle building. Vino? Really?! Also, there’s a weekly game within the game in which you accumulate credits toward portraits you can choose to use as avatars. The thing is that they keep using those credits for portraits you already have, rather than giving credit toward new ones that need new credits. Frustrating and annoying. Having paid for ad free has made the game more enjoyable but flawed dictionary, sluggish performance and silly repetition in weekly games remain. They recently fixed an annoyance that was added a couple of months ago in the game to accumulate butterflies. Kudos for fixing your mistake. Adding back 1 star for making it fun again.

Fun and intriguing…if you have some spare dollars

I really like this game, and even though I’ve only had it for a few days I can’t stop playing it. As someone with ADHD this is a really good focus her, and gets my brain working. There have been some words that I didn’t know where words, and there’s also a lot of things that should be counted as words like the names of countries, so that is a bit annoying. Plus you earn coins by completing the daily puzzles and crossword’s, but you can’t use those coins to buy things in the store that will help you out. You can use them to buy a helper thing when you are playing the game, but if you save up a lot of them you just have to do that rather than using them to buy spelling bees or some thing.I also don’t like that every time you complete a level, 25 coins go into a piggy bank that you then have to spend $1.99 on to get the coins when you reach the 1440 Mark. I feel like this game won’t be very fun if you aren’t willing to spend a few dollars, which is why I gave it four stars instead of five. But overall it’s a fun game that doesn’t get old and also challenges you to think.

Can’t Sync Between Devices

The concept of the game is easy enough... and if you have a decent vocabulary, the game itself is too easy. I’m nearly to level 300 and have barely had to pause to think about it. Definitely not challenging so far. My biggest issue is I can’t sync between my phone and iPad. I contacted customer support and was initially pleased by the quick response. Unfortunately, they keep forwarding my responses to another person, so I’ve spoken to 4 different people even though person 2 explained they’d just do a manual reset or something that never happened. Person 4 goes “Are you trying to sync them to the same FB account?” What??? Why would I be confused about it not going to the correct level if it wasn’t even the same account I was syncing them to?? I finally said never mind because no one from their support team has helped me over the past week and apparently they can’t bother to even read what my complaint was in the first place. Yes, they answer the same day, but every day it’s a new person and you’ll be explaining your problem over and over! And it’s emails! They can’t communicate? So all in all, pretty easy game and decent time killer... just can’t get the game to sync between my phone and iPad. 2 stars because the last two emails I got from them are utterly ridiculous. I paid to remove ads and regret the fact their company got my few dollars.

Great way to chill if you can handle it’s foibles

I find this an almost addicting daily indulgence. I’ve been playing this for well over a year and when dealing with their standard puzzles, the game can be quite entertaining. Where it falls down is with its vocabulary and it’s other options, like tournaments and daily puzzles. By far the most frustrating is the Daily Puzzle, in which earn points for guessing the correct word, guess them correctly and you’ll earn up to 3 points for one of the four challenges which in turn rewards you with stars for your account. However, there is neither rhyme nor reason to their method. Say you need a 3-letter word with “O” in the middle. With your letter selections it could be NOT, TON, LOT, HOT or TOY. Guess them in the wrong order and your chance of earning all 3 stars that round may be lost. I don’t know why they don’t put the words in alphabetical order.Next is vocabulary. I can’t say how many times I’ve tried a word and it’s not accepted (example: EWER or TOM.) Then there are the words like AAH and AHA or non-words like LITE.Finally there’s the tournaments (where one minute you’re rated #5, you’ll finish a game and drop to 20. Oh, and you better have a cell or network connection, otherwise you’ll play through a round of 16 games and get credit for none of them.

Great game, but…

I’ve been playing Wordscapes for a few years now, so I admit to being slightly addicted! But over time, some flaws do show that lead to some frustration and annoyance.Some puzzle words can be repeated 2-3 times over a few hours of play, yet others may not be seen/played for weeks at a time. I wish I could remember the exact words, but it’s happened multiple times for different words. Another issue I have is with the Portrait events that allow you to collect sets of portraits that can be used as your personal portraits if you’d like. The events give you a special portrait if you collect all of the sets in the particular event — my issue is that, after playing some of these events for years, I cannot seem to collect all the portraits — there are always one or two that never see so the collection can’t be completed. And when I say years, I am not kidding! I’ve been unable to complete the Halloween portrait event for the past two years. Working on the Christmas event now and collected approximately 60 ‘gifts’ that revealed no new portraits over the past 24 hours. Looks like I won’t finish this event either unless I find time to play 20 hours a day to maybe collect these elusive portraits.

Love the game itself but there are many issues

I love this game and play it often. However, there are many things that could be improved. For instance, the dictionary of words this app uses is strangely inconsistent. The game allows you play certain slang/abbreviations such as ‘exec’ and ‘repo’ but there is no reliability about these types of words. The word ‘cred’ is not valid, for example. I don’t understand how they decide which informal/improper words are allowed and which aren’t. Also, the word ‘verde’ is playable but ‘bleu’ is not. ‘Yin’ is valid but ‘yang’ is not. My biggest problem with this app is the fact that I have paid actual money so that I don’t get ads, but despite that fact, I still get banner ads on the bottom of the screen constantly. There is always an ad there and it often features flashing/distracting imagery or contains inappropriate themes. When I paid to get rid of ads, I paid to get rid of all ads. There was never any clear statement that paying to remove ads would only work for pop ups. This is extremely misleading and unfair. It is unacceptable to provide the option of paying legitimate currency to go ad-free and then not fulfilling that promise. Ad-free means ad-free. I have reached out to Wordscapes customer service several times about this matter and have been ignored every time. At this point, I want a refund if they’re going to keep putting advertisements in when I’ve specifically paid money to avoid that.

Great test for spelling nuts, best word fun app out there

I don’t write many reviews but I just had to let other spelling geeks out there know about this game. I don’t know why anyone would give this less than five stars unless they found it to hard. Me? I search for games that will test me, push me, make me really think. If you love scrabble, words with friends or any of those games out there that require you to have a good knowledge of spelling, this game is for you. It doesn’t matter what age you are you will enjoy it. One of the things I liked best is that you don’t have to spend weeks getting through the easy levels to get to the good stuff. You can join a team (to compete in tournaments where all team members scores are combined, or where individual play is rewarded) you can chat with your team members from all over the world, and there are many games within games as well as progressively harder levels to challenge your brain. I happen to be an English Teacher for advanced students in Elementary school and many of my kids play this game. We can even keep track of each other. I know, geeky right? Geeks rule the world my friend! Not high school or early school maybe but the REAL world. You need this game, download it today!

Beware Ad Themes and Glitches

I echo the cautions on the ads. Many are inappropriate for all audiences. Some adds are obviously for calling a sex line (scrolls at the bottom). Some ads are for games showing death of a character. They are cartoons, but still an issue for youth and possibly those with Mental Heath issues for whom such themes may be a trigger. Plus, I really don’t like to see that. Others ads are for games about relationship infidelity. Again, personally I don’t want to see them. If these are triggers for you, beware. If you suffer from pornography or gambling addiction, the ads may also be a problem. I also recommend children and youth avoid the game for those reasons. The game itself is enjoyable. It keeps the brain engaged enough but not so much that you can’t pay peripheral attention to other things when you need to keep half an eye on things. The team and individual tournaments are fun. Developers- about 1-2 months ago, the ads popping up after completing the daily puzzle come up so quickly the game does not credit you with the stars you earned. Please fix that. Personally, I enjoy the butterfly day because even though I may not get all of the varieties, I at least get some butterfly to add to my garden. Can we increase the butterfly game from 1 to 2 days? I don’t like the portrait game that lasts 2 days because you get a lot of repeats with nothing to show for it. Very disappointing. The butterflies are much more satisfying.
