Wordly™ App Reviews

This is such a fun app! No issues so far!

I am a fiend for word games and this little game is simple but fun. I am amazed at how many words I overlook each game. A round doesnt take long to play so I find myself playing back to back. My only suggestion would be the ability to keep track of my highest 10 scores.

Would like ability to keep my previous scores. Especially like the timing options.

Out of the gate its a decently solid app. Its lack of ability to return to a game in progress and its spotty dictionary ("yang" is acceptable, but not "zen"? In addition, some proper nouns are allowed while others arent.) are presently holding it back from being better than four stars. Its off to a very, very good start, however.

Ill give it five stars at that point. Otherwise great word game!

Unable to multitask while using it. When i listen to Tunein radio or a podcast and I start Wordly, all audio shuts down

Cannot give this five stars for two reasons: 1) no landscape mode - nearly all my apps are in landscape and its a bother to have switch the iPad in the stand for this app, and 2) uses extremely obscure words (to the point where I, who have a very large vocabulary, look them up because I think theyre non-English words. App could use some trimming of these. But otherwise, it is addictive and my scores are increasing, albeit without catching these bizarro words.

Fun, no bugs yet. Easy to use interface is cute and feels nostalgic. Id like a way to track my scores so I can see improvement.

Great game! No waiting for other players or "coins".

If I could, Id give 3-1/2 stars. As much fun as this game is, its also a bit frustrating. Words you think youd get points for are not in the "checklist", and MANY other - possibly foreign words or slang versions or phonetic spellings? - are everywhere to be found! This could be cleaned up significantly. And although per the screen my scores may not be impressive, I choose to ignore that and marvel at how many words I actually found on my own. In English!

Some words which are legitimate and spelled correctly are seemingly not valid when finding them in the puzzle, but others which may be even more obscure do show up and are recognized. The game could be more complete with regards to these missing words. Otherwise, this is a great game! Really fun, great interface, no annoying bells and whistles, and the option to set your own time limit or relax without one (much appreciated!). Overall, a great word search game! Just needs minimal fine-tuning.

Good game. Only negative, if u have to take a break from playing, it doesnt save ur game.

Great as is, but 3 things could make it an ultimate app... 1. Add other language dictionaries (German) and it would be a nice learning tool, for which I would pay. 2. Smaller game face showing more words, and sort the found words. I do not complete many puzzles as I get tired trying to find what I already discovered. 3. Improve battery use, as this app seems to run the battery down.

I downloaded that mess of a game by the same name only to find that it required my email just to begin... and if there was a single player version ("play the greats"?), I never saw it, since I would be forced into beating other players to unlock it (& it utilized a dreaded energy system!). It was *promptly* deleted. Then I found THIS... (thanks AppsGoneFree!). THIS is what I wanted!! Refreshingly clean, simple layout, & hand written answers that appear on crisp note paper as you find words (complete w/ satisfying scratchy writing sound FX!). You can toggle the amount of time that you have for each board, and after each game you see all possible answers written (yours highlighted), as well as a score + % correct. Thats it. And in my opinion, that... is wonderful. No IAPs, no bells & whistles, no forced multiplayer w/ coins & an energy system. Ah... Nice, right? If I had any complaint, it would be that it has no integrated dictionary to look up the words you missed (which seems to include abbrevs & prefixes, just so you know!). Also, as some other reviewers have said, a record of past top scores would be appreciated. Nonetheless, Boggle enthusiasts will find this satiates their hunger. :) My sincere gratitude to the dev(s) for this one. Thank you, so much!

The game is fun; my 10 year old daughter and I enjoy playing it together. One glitch Ive seen: the game resets somewhat randomly, so sometimes when you come back to a game, it is no longer there for you to try to finish. Wish the game kept track of high scores. It would also be nice to be able to get definitions for words on the final list.

Great game! I rate it at the top, 5stars.

Keeps me busy every day when I try to relax in the evening.

Could you please make it so you are able to save your game and come back to it? Any time you leave the game you have to start a new game all over again. Imagine the amount of games we go through just because we cant save. Thank you!!

Cant stop playing the game! But some of the words they recommend... Kinda wacky.

Great game and addictive.
