Microsoft Wordament Positive Reviews

AddictiveThis game is amazing. I'd like to see an additional "points per second" score added to the "average points per word" and "word count," but that's not that big of a deal. What else would be nice to see is "most common mistakes" along with the list of words. Only things that I actually have a complaint about though are: (1) It forces you to change to the leaderboard at a certain time; sometimes I want to look through the words more than look at the leaderboard or I'm not interested in seeing the words and just want the leaderboard. It'd be nice to freely switch between during the time between games. (2) I don't like the "you're guessing" time penalty. I get why it's there, but occasionally my finger just slips and selects a different letter, I just misspelled a word, or I thought something was a recognized word, such as a slang word or a name. Maybe, it could just be that we say the time they wasted on a wrong word is penalty enough. Biggest plus it that I haven't experienced a true bug yet; people keep saying it freezes at 23 seconds, but that's only happened to me if I lose my connection..Donald9966Version: 2.8.3

Please fixI love the game but.... the old version was so much better. I don’t know why some corporate jerk has to pitch a new update that screws everything up. Clean and simple. That’s all we want. The new version has all the bells and whistles that nobody wanted. And the stats are screwed up. It used to have a total score (which would rank you by month, year, or all time). It used to list how many wins you had. That’s all still there because I was getting it by refusing to update to this version. But they screwed the whole thing up so I had to update. Could you guys at least make the stats available on your home page? And I can’t even read it anymore either. Too small and the new I phone covers the theme hints and timer. Really! Don’t you guys even play the game yourselves?.YouOweMeAPickleVersion: 3.6.02250

StallingSeveral times in the last couple of days the game has stalled before it even opens to play. Over & over it just plays the WORD logo & I can’t get in to play. I only play as a guest but I’ll have to quit completely if I can’t get in & I’ve been playing for a couple of years, please try to fix this , this is really one of the better spelling games out there. Thanks, a loyal fan. I would love to know what dictionary is in use here. Many words that are actual words are not valid in this game, but many short abbreviations are acceptable. Also, many words in use in the game are not actual words according to a scrabble dictionary which has every conceivable 3 letter word. I’m going to quit playing altogether because of this & the points given don’t matter in the least. I know it doesn’t matter one way or another what my opinion of the game is but has become trite & banal..0206miscVersion: 4.3.2021.0

App gets stuck at last level of each world, ads play sound even with sounds turned off in the gameI actually enjoy this game, even though it gets repetitive from one world to the next, BUT there are several problems with the app. When I finish the last level in a world, the app (on iPad) freezes and won’t let me proceed. The only way I found to get around this is to login on my phone to finish that world, then go to the next, then login again on my iPad. The next issue is, while you can save to the cloud to enable switching between devices, you can’t be logged-in on 2 devices at the same time, and the login process takes like 5-6 clicks. Lastly, even if you have the volume/sounds turned off in the game settings, the ads still play sounds and music, so I have to turn my device volume all the way down to avoid annoying people nearby (and myself)!.Kari_lynVersion: 4.3.2021.0

A Wordament Facelift is Long OverdueHas the creative team that originally developed Wordament left Microsoft or moved on to other projects? Nothing has changed many years now. Zero aesthetic creativity or feature improvements. Every map is literally just going back to the beginning of the same map. Where’s the “Adventure“ in that?Eventually, even endless AI-generated word puzzles start to feel repetitive. Some new scenery would at least create a more interesting illusion of going somewhere. And how about adding an in-app dictionary and other features to enhance the game’s vocabulary building benefits? At the very least, please give us more variety by finally developing a Microsoft Ultimate Word Games app for iOS instead of leaving us stuck with the browser version. If the current “if it ain’t broke, don’t change it” attitude continues, I will probably end my subscription..ShiningseeVersion: 4.2.1211

Why did you have to destroy a perfectly good game?Loved this game til the new version. Now it’s TERRIBLE! New colors w/poor contrast, tiny font & no holding where needed. Takes longer to make words, because unnecessary pop-up comments like “NICE!” block your view, wasting precious time. Not to mention even more ads. The time clock counter was redone to look like a mock old-fashioned flipover clock radio, resulting in extreme difficulty in determining the remaining time. Whoever redid this should be fired. Thank you so much for ruining a perfectly good game. Don’t see myself playing this anymore, unless you reinstate the former look & feel..JamesTheLesserVersion: 3.0.11

Long ads, weird wordsThis is basically a pretty fun word search puzzle, that gets progressively harder as you move through the steps. However, I have two big gripes: lately all the ads are 30 seconds long, much longer than I’m willing to sit through. And many of the “words” it expects you to find are so obscure that even with my graduate level vocabulary, I’ve never heard of them. So lately, after I find all the familiar words, I just resort to plugging in every combination that could conceivably be pronounced in English. If I feel like. it, I can look up the meaning, but they’re usually never a word I’d want to add to my vocabulary: the name of some obscure fish, or the archaic Scottish word for something. That makes it into a different kind of game, which I guess is OK too. I prefer the New York Times’ Spelling Bee, but you can’t binge-play that one!.Txoco's grandmaVersion: 4.2.1211

Irritating Inane AdsChallenging word games that get increasingly difficult. If it wasn’t for those stupid ads, and the amount of time it can take to load it, this would be a fun little game. One of the frustrating challenges, after having to endure ads before the games, is that they don’t just end automatically on their own. If you click anywhere on your screen other than the very center of the microscopic X in the upper right hand corner to close the ad you are automatically rerouted to the App Store for downloading whatever it is that they’re promoting. After you close out of the App Store you’re automatically redirected back to that same stupid add screen where you have to try again to close out the ad or get sent back to the App Store in what can be a Sisysphean cycle of torment..MmzehrVersion: 4.3.2021.0

Really good challenge Addictive thoughReally good game finding words in 4x4 grid of letters! Downsides of game: you can keep finding words & scoring more as long as you don’t complete all 3 requirements on adventure maps, but it doesn’t keep track of your extra points! Also closes immediately after completing the 3 requirements so you may not know what your last word scored. Would be nice to review scored words & if word score list stayed on current last words. Special scoring with a selected word gives 200 points, stupid! Should score using normal method & give some bonus for scoring the word. They really missed the killer feature for this game though - the ability to click on a word in the list window for the top definition of the word! Oh well.Cc55smithVersion: 4.3.2021.0

Fun game and all, but…After the first few maps, the game becomes repetitious. Same stuff over and over and over, ad nauseum, to the point of being boring. Similar or same puzzle, different map. Ultimately, it seems there is minimal creativity. It’s almost “copy and paste.” Each map starts out easy and gets progressively more difficult, until I come to a gate. Go through the gate and puzzles are easy, becoming more difficult, until I come to a gate or complete the map. The pattern repeats endlessly. I’m currently in the middle of Map 39, so it’s not like I did just a few maps and wrote a review. I keep playing because, right now, I don’t have another word game. I love word games and I have a huge vocabulary. I want more challenge. (My mother did the 𝘊𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘨𝘰 𝘛𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘶𝘯𝘦 daily crossword puzzle in ink.).ChicagoAnnieVersion: 4.2.1211

Really wish there was a little more to love about thisThis is a great version of the classic word find boggle-style puzzle game. But the reason I am writing this review is that nothing about this game is difficult at all! There are so many levels with absolutely no progression of difficulty, no different than gimmicks, heck even all the different "maps" you unlock look the same! There are no timers, no move limits (in the main game), and while this lends itself to being played for a few minutes here and there, it's just lacking interest. Even some 5x5 levels would be a nice change of pace. It looks and plays great! I wish Microsoft had more games in this Casual series. But it's such a flat landscape with respect to challenge and progression..AdamantVisionVersion: 4.0.11240

The old version was betterIt seems like I used to score better in the previous version. There are a bunch of useless and distracting bells and whistles on this revision. I enjoyed seeing the country flags and the three letter country codes. I used to look up the codes to identify the countries and added some to my geo knowledge. Some of my frenemies seem to have disappeared ... maybe they preferred the previous version. Or maybe there is a way to get the “classic” version and I haven’t figured that out yet? Really, I don’t need endless levels of what is it? novice, apprentice, seasoned, advanced, what? I know I’m aiming for #1 and I hope to get there eventually, so please don’t waste my time giving me a bunch of useless tiers and cheering me on. Thanks for the opportunity to share my opinion..Chrisk106Version: 3.5.8020

Love the gameI love to play the multiplayer game of Wordament. It keeps me on my toes with vocabulary words. The only thing is there seems to be a large amount of bots playing. Too many words possible for a human to type/think of in the amount time provided. It makes the competitive part of me hate the game. I, nor any real person can compete with a computer. I still play, but with disappointment. In addition, sometimes the themed games are lacking. For example, the other day the theme of the puzzle was “nose” but no credit was given for “nares.” Really? Just got done playing a game with the theme, “occupations” but the word “potter” gave no extra points. That being said, if you can ignore the “Leaderboard” in the game and just try to beat your own record it’s a fun game..SuzyQQRNVersion: 3.7.3050

Too many loud obnoxious video ads!The game can be fun to play, especially the Daily Challenges - Gem Collector. I don’t begrudge someone for monetizing their development efforts through advertising. HOWEVER - When the developer of the app gives you a setting allowing you to disable sounds so you don’t bother others around you while playing, and yet they allow video ads to play that contain audio that doesn’t care about the app settings that have the sound disabled-it seems rather inconsiderate (and annoying), in addition to creating disruptive and embarrassing situations. Don’t give me that old tired line about not being able to control the audio in the video ads. You can control it by not allowing video ads!.Timothy2316Version: 3.0.11

Good, what would make this great ..What's good - unique and addictive format, multiplayer w ability to match up against friends, simple but clever user experience. Been playing for over a year. Yet it can be rather frustrating after a bit.. Now what I really wish it had - the biggest thing missing is the ability to play non-timed version, maybe as an option, with ability to suspend and resume, or at least allow users to set different times instead of hard wiring to 2 minutes. Especially while learning the game. Second, the game does not know all words - make it simpler to nominate words that are missing from the dictionary. Third, would be great to have in-app logging to track your performance..DBharadwajVersion: 2.8.3

Rated too earlyWhile I do love this game I hate the ads. I realize the need for some ads. The problem is the length of the ads. When you hit the X to EXIT the ad it takes you to another screen of the same ad. Sometimes it takes three X’s to actually exit out of the ad. I now loathe the Royal Kingdom ads. I’m sick to death of them! I wouldn’t get that game now if they offered me money to play it. A person knows whether they want to get the game within the first ten seconds. To be forced to watch it again and again for prolonged periods is just TOO MUCH. The game would be played more if the ads were shorter or if, like in other successful games, you could choose to exit early..Sunset TessVersion: 4.4.2211.0

A lot of fun….I play this game often. I especially love the daily challenges. I REALLY think the developers should allow us to play previous months’ challenges, similar to Microsoft solitaire. The reason for this simple: I could have a perfect month and just miss the last day of the month and puff! I will no longer be able to replay that day. It hasn’t happened much, but it has. It’s defeating. At least allow us a few days to make up the last day of the month before it closes out forever..PhyukuVersion: 4.2.1211

AddictiveI love this game! I’ve completed everything possible, but repeatedly go back to replay the daily challenges. I love the Balloon Pop expert ones, so I’m glad you can go back to previous dates, find and play them, and that they’re not the same puzzles. The only complaint I have is that I’ve looked repeatedly for ways to submit words that aren’t in the game (just a couple), but can’t find any way to contact them. It would be nice to be able to submit words or other suggestions..SugarMonkey_728Version: 4.2.1211

Fun word gameUpdate: ‘cep’ is a common word? Three vegetables theme, answers are pea peas cep. Google hasn’t even heard of it. Wikipedia says it’s a name for a type of mushroom. Had to ask for a hint to get it. It’s counterproductive to include impossible words as theme words. Oh well, it’s free. Have played for months. Over time you learn quirks, like ‘Mises’ is a word (famous Austrian economist) but many common proper nouns are not. They lean heavily on some questionable terms, ‘rez’, ‘lex’, ‘dex’, so high point letters can be included. Playing on iPhone I find it personally irritating that you can’t turn off the HINT button, which I occasionally hit by accident. But it certainly seems a useful and challenging puzzler..SJ_SNTVersion: 4.0.11240

Turn off LOUD sounds for adsI like the game make you think of unusual words, but the annoying sound for ads when I have sound off for the game have to go. Why can’t you turn off sound for ads like you do in Microsoft solitaire collections. Can’t play game away from home because of the annoying loud sounds for every ads. Furthermore did you verify the ads are not scams??? I accidentally tap on an ad and Norton popped up saying site is not safe. Please fix sound problem for ads!!!.Shy28pVersion: 4.2.1211

Two problems foundI have neglected writing for a while now but they are beginning to annoy me. The program shuts down every once in a while. I don’t see any correlation between the stops. The program hangs up my iPad for a short time, 15 to 30 seconds then shuts down and I have to restart the program. If I am in a puzzle, the puzzle has to be restarted, nothing is saved. The other problem is when I am finally at the last gate, I cant open it. The access link is below the designated square. To get thru the gate, I switch to me iPhone. Fix these two problems and I will give 5 stars.MuthcaVersion: 4.2.1211

Fantastic!Microsoft Wordament is one of the most underrated games out there! A hidden gem of absolute awesomeness. I’m so surprised that this game hasn’t garnered a following of millions! This game is so relaxing and fun to play. You can’t help but get addicted! It’s easy enough to play that you won’t get frustrated and discouraged, yet difficult enough to keep you interested. Most word games are either ridiculously easy or mind-numbingly hard. This is the first word game I’ve found that I actually love. I can’t get enough of it!.EbbyhillVersion: 4.0.11240

Update killed itI used to play Wordament all the time with my friends and family. I haven’t played in a while and I just checked back to see that the whole entire layout has changed, and how many unnecessary features there are. I get wanting to improve your game but this just straight up changed it. It doesn’t feel like the old Wordament, the fun one that I know. The old sound effects were better, the old layout was better, and just how simple it used to be was so much better. It’s still a fun game but the update really did kill the fun, simple vibe it used to have. If it weren’t for this update I would’ve left a 5 star review..JillNye72Version: 3.0.11

No new mapsI used to love playing Wordament. However, I’ve played all 82 of the Adventure Maps and all 12 of the 2017 monthly maps. Nothing new has been added in a very long time. It’s not hard to create new maps, or open additional years like 2018, 2019, and 2020. Older maps could be given new goals. Like other reviewers, I hate it when you can’t add to your score when you’ve found the minimum required score. I’m canceling my subscription if the game isn’t updated by the end of the year. Time to move to something more exciting and interesting that is updated regularly..DaisyBeagle09Version: 4.3.2021.0

Redesign?I miss the old Wordament. The old wordament was a clean, visually pleasing, and fun game. It was easy to play with family and friends. The graphics were pleasing to the eye, and not distracting. It was just well designed, with the end user experience in mind. This new wordament is designed around capturing your time, and along the way, makes some serious sacrifices. The old game is buried in the app. The design hearkens back to the 90s. I loved the old game, and would hate to disappoint the developers - but I cant recommend this app anymore. I hope it does well, and perhaps the current design will introduce wordament to a new and fresh audience. But this is not the wordament I was hooked on.Klüge HösenVersion: 3.0.11

Interesting approach to a casual word game...I love the casual approach. I prefer the Microsoft Sudoku game to this, but enjoy them both. I thoroughly enjoy the challenge; many times a daily challenge resulted in a do-over because I cleared with too long or short a word causing me to miss points on the next word or three. Definitely a game for casual play. The only thing I don't like is that being an Xbox GamePass Ultimate subscriber, I don't get ad free here. I already pay ad-free on M Sudoku, and GPU, and now you want another ad-free sub? Screw that!.ScrabbleDragonVersion: 4.0.11240

Love this game!I recently got bored with solitaire and wanted a different game to play. Downloaded this because I like Microsoft’s solitaire collection and thought this would be a good alternative. I really enjoy playing! I especially LOVE the daily challenges! I just wish that I could play previous months daily challenges because I find the daily challenges more entertaining than the regular adventures. Very few ads, which is great! Most last five seconds when they do happen..BjmrswVersion: 4.0.11240

WordamentThis game keeps the brain hopping! Even when I am still playing as a guest, I find the game interesting enough to play every day. There is one downside to playing as a guest. The Advertisements in between levels sometimes cut out and a glitch sends me back to my home page. So I have to re-load the game again. Other than that, this game is totally engaging! There are daily bonus games, different levels to play and quick games! Fun for anyone who likes learning and keeping the brain sharp!.MillionsLostVersion: 3.5.5100

I Love the Game, but...The game is great. If you like Boggle (which I’ve played since it came on the market in the late 70’s) you will love this. The only problem is that Microsoft doesn’t update the game and you’re playing the same games over and over. With the millions of combinations of letters, the game has so much potential. My guess is that’s why there are so few players (and when it was taken off Facebook the number of players went from thousands to 250 at most.). Very sad. A little more advertising would help too. I see the same players every day. Potential is there but this is obviously not a priority to Microsoft...lol!.ClisiVersion: 3.7.3050

Great but needs to be improvedThis game has such a great concept with the layout and the after game leaderboards. The only problem I have with it is that it's impossible to score high unless you know all of the uncommon words that are never used in our everyday language. I'm constantly playing half games because halfway through I can't find any words. After the game is finished, I find that the top scoring common words are still uncommon. I think they need to update their dictionary from the 1800's dictionary to the current dictionary.Brochoa8Version: 2.8.3

App keeps crashingWhenever I try to sync my iPhone with my iPad or vice versa, the app always crashes. I have to uninstall it and then download it again. This is something new that just started happening. I keep hoping that there will be a fix for this, so I’m just writing this to let the creators know. Otherwise I have been using this app for over three years after my stroke to help with coordination and memory and I absolutely love it please fix it so that I can continue to enjoy this app..StarRaeVersion: 4.2.1211

Addictive gameI really enjoy this game. I like that each game has slightly different goals. I would like the ability to get rid of the annoying repetitive ads, even for $$. My main complaint though is that the sound keeps turning itself back on. I like my games silent. Update: I have been paying for premium to get rid of ads which worked fine for a while, but now I am getting ads anyway. I have contacted the developer and Apple but get no reply. Frustrating..AchrisvetVersion: 4.2.1211

Fix neededYou can play this game on an Apple product, but first you must: Go to the setting menu, turn off the private network, turn on the private network, turn off the computer, turn on the computer! Then maybe if you are lucky, you can play the game. If not, repeat all the above steps, then again maybe, then again maybe. I really believe it could be fixed, but for reasons I don’t understand, they have apparently chosen not to fix..PgsouthVersion: 4.2.1211

Surprise Ads!I’ve enjoyed Wordament for years. When I hoped it yesterday there was an ads to clear when I opened the app, then little ads are in the way, flashing as distractions I have plan this game ad free until I opened it. I find this change that requires a fee to rid myself of ads an unpleasant surprise. The app feels definitely when I play. If I previously paid to get rid of the ads I don’t see this app listed. I do not see a means to restore this APP. It would be helpful to know if this changed from free to a fee in this month, Jan 2021..Wizard 91919Version: 4.0.11240

AddictiveI really like this game; it challenges you to think quickly and figure out how to get better scores. It's a game that can be played a few times and then put down, but it can also be played dozens of times in a session. No two games are ever the same. I also like seeing the score ladder and being inspired to earn a higher score. Like another reviewer posted, I wish there were an in-app dictionary so that players can look up the definition of words. I think that would vastly improve most player's ability to remember select words through greater association. Seeing all the words I missed doesn't really help me remember or learn from that experience; it just makes me realize where I am on the curve. I see those 50+ point words and I'm amazed that people could find them given the short duration of matches. Overall: fun, challenging, interesting.V!!!?Version: 2.8.3

Good game butI play my games without sound but when playing Wordament one ad, Toon Blast, always goes to sound. It starts with an option to turn the sound off but the last 5 seconds always has sound. All sounds are off in the game options and I always turn off sound on ads when it’s an option, but Toon Blast is always a problem. Please turn off the sound or take it out of ads—I’m really tired is having to shut off sound on my phone..TrappedinthislifeVersion: 4.2.1211

Nice campaign mode, preferred original for multiplayerThe new single player campaign is fun, however the new multiplayer feels slower and more awkward than the original even with the disruptive animations turned off, and the treatment of repeats and unrecognized words is harder to distinguish from phone screen touch issues. Also a terrible shame to suddenly lose all score history stats with the upgrade, that was hundreds of hours of progress for me including a couple world #1s, still a great game overall..ArthurwmsVersion: 3.0.11

Love it but I have a wish listI love this game! It is fun and simple and a great word game among the sea of word games available. I wish that you could click on the “theme words” star while in game play and it would show you which words you have already played for the levels theme. Some of the themes are a bit vague and it will show I have already played 1 or more theme words but I would love to be able to see what they were. Another thing is I wish you could click on the words you have played so far and it gives you a quick definition of the word. So many words i end up playing are just words I have learned the game accepts, but I would love to be able to learn what those words actually mean. Thanks for providing such a fun game though! :).April BorneVersion: 4.3.2021.0

Good ideas in the latest update, but execution is lackingI like the new options for styles of game play in this latest update. However, the game is now a lot slower and a battery hog to boot. Playing fast for high word count is a lot harder due to lag, even when connected to wifi. The compliments it gives you when you do well (is there an actual name for those?) also interfere with speed because they obscure the board and also lag. The graphics and visual style may also contribute to the performance issues, since they are a lot more complex (unnecessarily so in my opinion) than previously. The game is also much less visually distinctive now, and its style blends in with every other game out there that I don’t play due to general spaminess and battery hog issues. My suggestions are to simplify the graphics, distill everything so it’s focused on game play rather than a debatably pretty package, and remove any other unnecessary “features” causing performance issues..ECB87Version: 3.0.11

Strange objectives and brokenFirst off, the objectives are a bit unsatisfying. Instead of trying to find all the words, you are cut off after a certain score, and are trying to do things like find words using the corner letters or three letter or four letter words. The multi play is a bit more of the traditional play against the clock kind of thing, but the solo campaign seems weirdly casual in that there is no clock and you aren’t trying to find all the words and get cut off when you achieve the three objectives of each game. That would be ok, but when I got to the last puzzle of the first campaign “world” the game broke and I couldn’t play further. Even closing it and reopening it would just take me straight back to the same crash… no way to avoid it. So I had to uninstall it..FleshyHeadedMonkeyVersion: 4.2.1211

Zero Stars!This new Wordament version is horrid! It is full of adds, I see no leader boards and the flashy music and silly maze I have to work through is ridiculous. I want the old game back. What were you developers thinking? My advice. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. Ah but you just had to upgrade to greasy car dealership version that leaves a bad taste in my mouth and feeling slightly taken advantage of. I refuse to upload this app again until you bring the old version back. Hopefully for you, you pull in a bunch of younger players who don’t mind all the fluff. I hope not! I hope this game bombs so you bring back the old version. If I wanted a ripping off, dull brained casino experience, I’d go to a casino. But guess what, I’m not that stupid. Thank for ruining the game and taking all your past followers for granted by assuming we would all just love stupid adds and a slower game. Thanks but no thanks!.TiffanyMKCVersion: 3.1.0

Were you high?Who in the world thought that this new layout and game experience would be better than the old version? Because whoever it was, should be fired. I used to LOVE this game. My whole family did!! I even had friends that played and I loved having them as frenemies; it was fun seeing them randomly pop up at the end in leaderboard. It was so simple, clean, and just perfect. You got exactly what you came for. If not immediately then within the reasonable 120s(+/-?) countdown. You got to play. Nothing more nothing less. But now, every feature of this game that had made it beyond compare is now replaced with this poorly executed knock-off, void of any visual appeal, and if that wasn’t enough, don’t forget the hundred and one unnecessary gameplay add-ons that completely depreciate the value of the game. A++ for an equally inordinate and deficient app..The.RachelVersion: 3.7.3050

Like the single play stuff but I want to cryLove the new different ways to play. This is a much needed update after years of the same ol’ same ol’ which in hindsight was amazing. I love Wordament - 16,000 games of love. The biggest issue I have is the overlay of “Nice!” or “Excellent!” in the middle of a tournament. Who’s completely lousy idea was that???? I can’t see the letters underneath - which means I can’t make words which means I can’t make as many words as I used to! This is a game of speed (duh!) so why would you do something that hinders and slows down a gamer? Why? Why? Why? Contrast on the tiles is much harder for me to see the letter especially when I am trying to go fast. Why would you maker it harder? Also - the update look is outdated. It looked more modern and cool before - now you have buttons with gradients, bevels and dropshadows? What? Why would you do that? This is one of my favorite games ever - and the new game plays are fantastic (if kinda look-wise derivative and uninspired) - but you messed with the part that was already perfect. Microsoft overall is figuring out how to be innovative and relevant but this game improvement harkens back to another older era..JellyJonasVersion: 3.0.11

Won’t let me sign in with FBI love these kinds of games and based upon the high rating, I thought I’d check it out. When I tried to sign up via my Facebook account, it took me 6 trues before I got to an actual Facebook sign in screen. Then when I signed in and accepted the terms via Facebook, your game told me that I lacked an internet connection. Funny - that’s the same screen I got the 6 previous times before you let me attempt my connection to Facebook. Being connected to the internet isn’t an issue but I suspect that your servers are having a challenge performing this task based upon the time of day/high traffic. Guess what though? I could play as a guest and no pesky messages about not having an internet connection. Oh well. I’m moving on to another game..KristinafhVersion: 2.8.3

Was great now horrible do not getThe previous version of this from maybe a few weeks ago was phenomenal. simple interface clean fast and fun head to head multiplayer matchup with timed games. lightweight advertising at the bottom of the screen. fun and nice. the latest update has added the worst possible advertising - insultingly stupid unskippable videos of six to fifteen seconds each showing braindead click the matching color games that pop up randomly between games. the word games are still good but the advertisements in this case destroy the app. borderline unusable. I had given this five stars for simplicity and fun. downgraded to one on account of the incredibly intrusive ads. I'm not sure how much more I can stand before this gets deleted. too bad cuz it was one of my favorite apps..NYCNicolasVersion: 3.0.11

🤨I have disappointments. 1) when I have game issues & need support, I don't appreciate being directed to the games FB page. I want an email, text or 800 # to call to address my issue. 2) I want an one- time reasonable fee to remove ADS off my game, not a subscription that renews every month or yearly. You making money running ADS on my device without compensating me. Can't enjoy game for ADS. 3) When ADS are running, they cut off my game completely and I have to reopen game. $3 or $4 max is sufficient for permanent removal of ADS from game. Good game; but your gouging isn't appreciated. I have to many Microsoft accounts I use and pay for to spend a whopping $11 every year; you ought to be using us $5 per AD @ least during game play..Thundar83Version: 3.5.5100

Greed made this game worthlessThank you for destroying a game I used to love. The update claimed it was to “fix minor bugs and crashes”. Instead its purpose was to Create Ads that CAUSE crashes! In the 6 years I have been playing Wordament has Never once crashed. And Never previously had ads. I loved it since it was one of the few word games I could play offline. I am frequently in situations where I don’t have internet access or even cell signal. Now the game plays preloaded ads that you cannot escape, skip or get past. Thanks for destroying a game I used to love. Nice to be reminded that the Mircosoft corporation and Xbox are so greedy that they would lock up their own game just to get paid a few pennies for running constant ads..PaleWhiteRoseVersion: 4.2.1211

Getting used to the new versionI really liked to original version. It was clean and simple. And I loved seeing where the other players were from and their flags. Really miss that in the new version. Also been having problems playing on both my phone any my iPad. The app identifies that the data on my phone is different than my iPad when I say I was to use my iPad data it keeps saying it’s unable to sync my info. Frustrating! Also disappointed that the new version could not take my existing stats and assign my level. Despite having played this game since it was originally released I had to start at novice level 1..Hilltop8300Version: 3.0.11

What an awful idea.SkyPaws27 here. I am so freaking mad over this new update. This was the ONE game I played. First, you messed up the statistics and lost more than half your players due to removing the Facebook connection and only allowing Xbox accounts (you went from 1,000 players at a time to barely 300). At that point I had played thousands of games and was miffed I had to create a new account. But the game was the same, so I sucked it up and began anew. And then you go and do this. WHY. No one likes this update. Put down whatever you were smoking when you decided this was a good idea. Unless your goal was to kill the app - in that case, congrats! But alas, I’m sure you don’t care. Players, it’s been a pleasure..Tinaroo42Version: 3.0.11

2009 wants its app design backI was thrilled to see Wordament finally get a long overdue update... until I opened the app and saw the awful new design. What was once a fairly beautiful, well-designed game with simple, unobtrusive banner ads is now a bloated mess with obnoxious ads that looks like it was ripped from the early days of the App Store almost a decade ago. While the online gameplay is still fun and the single player modes a welcome addition, the overall experience is less than the sum of its parts. Please, Microsoft, give me the option to pay for the game and remove the ads, and go back to the simple visual design of the original game!.Coachpepe84Version: 3.0.11

Where are the Developers?When I sign in I, as of a few weeks ago, my game appears to be frozen. The game simply won’t respond. I can only play as a guest now, which reverted me back to ‘novice’. I reached out to the game developer but heard nothing back. Also when you reach the top at the end of your challenge, the game boringly drops back to the bottom to begin again. Makes you feel like you’re starting over; definitely no cute or fancy graphics to make you feel a forward momentum, or graduation onto the next level. The developers never appear to improve the game. Finally, the counter doesn’t always add your points for discovered words. Lots of glitches! No new updates. Gets pretty boring after a point. At least the number and lengths of ads is not nearly as bad as most other games I pay to play by watching ads. Please, fix the glitches and improve, update, renovate the game..RhobyewVersion: 4.2.1211

Update sucksNow there are ads of course. The number of players was going down for a long time so an update was thought necessary. What were they thinking though? Looks like candy crush now and stupid pop up words of praise appear when you score big obscuring the tiles so you can't continue at the pace you were going at. Sad. Was a great game..Dinosaur911Version: 3.0.11

Won't loadUsed to enjoy this game, played it almost every day. A month or two ago it started to not load. Deleting the app and reinstalling it worked. Temporary. sometimes I would work normally for a week but lately, for maybe two days at a time. From searching forums, Microsoft has had this problem for sometime but I’ve not fixed it. There are lots of other word games available that are more reliable..Switch to something elseVersion: 4.3.2021.0

It was great until…..This game was great and really fun to play until a recent update it did. Now unfortunately when you enter the game under a signed in account and try playing any new locations on the first map, even after you watch the ads, the game will be on an endless loading screen preventing you from continuing. That happens with me all the time now and it’s so frustrating. 😡 what’s going on? Is Wordament being discontinued? 😢If this is not fixed then I’ll just remove the game as it’s just taking up space..Zodiac tamerVersion: 4.3.2021.0

No cloud syncGreat game (apart from the annoying ads) - but for months now cloud sync is failing. On current iOS 16 - I think earlier versions of 16 were fine, so no idea what’s going on. Have signed out and back dozens of times with no change. MS games support site is useless..WalMitVersion: 4.2.1211

Too many adsGreat game if you didn’t have to sit through two minutes of ads to get to the next levels. Ads come in very loud, a hazard for everyone who has headphones on. Ads (some) also contain flashing lights that can be hazardous to anyone. ***Remember the big debacle in Japan with this same issue.*** Apple, Microsoft, you know better and could have done sooo much better. Sorry to have to delete this game..Spryte_lyVersion: 4.2.1211

Paid, for waft?I’ve been an avid player of this game for a long time. I paid for it because I felt any game I play regularity is worth it - the creators should be paid. However, the other reason is so that I don’t get ads. Well - looks like Microsoft got greedy and now is forcing me to watch ads on top of the payment. I am going to see if I can find boggle or a comparable game..Xxxx dust xxxxVersion: 4.2.1211
