Honestly really fun to play - you get to learn new words and you really need to think about the placement of letters, which what makes this strategizing game fun. I've only just started playing this game, but I haven't had any problems - so far so good! An improvement would be to have an AI you can get go against instead of waiting for real life players to practice, as well as different difficulties which would REALLY extend the texting of one's vocabulary (maybe E.g. Hard won't give clues).

Unique and fun! I would prefer more tutorial on how points work. I've been playing a few months and I still don't understand how cascade points are given. It seems inconsistent. I would also like if there was an upgrade to see a preview of point totals before you complete a turn on zen mode. And it would be nice to have a "skip" option after completing a level so you don't have to sit through the animations that show your points and level-up experience, that animation can be tedious to watch.

Really good game, but I think the chance of rare letters is too high. Even with max letters available in single, my choices are limited. It has made the single player game unfun; I'm constantly stuck with 3 or 4 letter words that I've never even seen. It's not interesting or fun to deal with a JFHUUUVZH spread. So I think the randomization needs tuning, and/or the ability to choose which level of that upgrade we want to use. Risk/reward. I miss spelling normal words but now I'm stuck with this.

Hi Jamey, I'm sorry you're having a bad time. The letter selection algorithm already tries to filter out having 3 letters of the same type, but it's not perfect. If you've unlocked it, you get a free swap per game as well. Simple Simon also disables rare letters. If I removed all variance the range of potential words would be greatly reduced.
