WHAT THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT · SHARE OF BAD REVIEWS
Too many ads54%

37 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Multiple games, ads, notifications, etc., etc., etc..
★★★★★ As if the ads weren't enough, they've tried to cram too much nonsense into it and have made it too difficult to even find a game you've already started.
★★★★★ Stop complaining about ads.
Price and subscription16%

11 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Unless Zynga begins taking customer concerns seriously, I hope other players recognize the level of support they can expect before investing further time or money into any Zynga game.
★★★★★ Non stop upselling of features to get you to spend money.
★★★★★ AI knows your letters so you need to spend coins to beat it with power ups. Used to be able to stock up on power ups but they took that away. Too many pop ups and “you won X trophies while you were away”. Too much woke…
Worse after an update13%

9 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ stated that he was taking "direct ownership" of my issue, yet I have not heard a single update from him since.
★★★★★ But the new version is just too flashy for me.
★★★★★ Update: ads for getting rewards and club token do not even load.
Bugs, things not working10%

7 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ The only game I ever played where the support team is unable to fix issues. Nearly a week & all I receive is thank you for being part of the Zynga community. FIX the issues & save the thank you's. Consumers want to…
★★★★★ On 5 or so occasions my account got a popup that said “you have been banned…” each time I emailed customer support and they reinstated my account with the explanation that it was a technical issue on their end. Each…
★★★★★ Another update and no bugs fixed.
Lost data, sync, backup10%

7 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ On 5 or so occasions my account got a popup that said “you have been banned…” each time I emailed customer support and they reinstated my account with the explanation that it was a technical issue on their end. Each…
★★★★★ I would give this game zero stars if I could at first it was really fun, but then they deleted my account for no reason
★★★★★ The developers are trying to get me to uninstall the app and reinstall it this way I will lose my purchase and they can display more ads.
No customer support9%

6 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ The only game I ever played where the support team is unable to fix issues.
★★★★★ You suggested I contact support.
★★★★★ On 5 or so occasions my account got a popup that said “you have been banned…” each time I emailed customer support and they reinstated my account with the explanation that it was a technical issue on their end.
Crashes and freezes7%

5 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Also, lately the little ads that you include that offer to give a coin or two for watching, about 20% of them crash.
★★★★★ This is very frustrating as several ads you must force close the game to get past the X.
★★★★★ The Disney ads freeze up the entire game, solo challenge tickets only refresh after opening and closing the game about ten times, and now it shows the tickets are full but won't actually let me play a solo challenge.
Limits, credits, locked features4%

3 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ No one appreciates being locked out of their favorite game!!!!!
★★★★★ Update: ads for getting rewards and club token do not even load.
★★★★★ This was months old and the rep was too lazy to even edit out the “app name here” token.
WHAT THEY ASK FOR
  • Just please make it easier to report and keep out the ppl who harass you to meet up w them on other apps. 5★, Oct 19, 2026
  • I don't want badges, I don't want to play against fictitious characters, I don't need a leaderboard, etc. 3★, Oct 12, 2026
  • Competing against others would be great if they didn't censor conversations. 2★, Oct 12, 2026
  • Furthermore, the fact that your response actually included the placeholder “add the game name” makes it even more apparent that little attention was given to my feedback. 1★, Oct 11, 2026

Latest reviews, Japan App Store.

★★★★★Oct 21, 2026
Great Pass-time

Been playing for over a decade. Enough said!

★★★★★Oct 21, 2026
Overloaded

I’ve never seen a game with more things stuffed into one app. Multiple games, ads, notifications, etc., etc., etc..

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026
Sticker notices

Why does the app keep showing me that I have a notification with stickers when I have never nor will I ever use them. It's quite annoying.

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026
Dice challenge

Why do all of my dice challenge games disappear after I play my first word? It doesn’t matter if I accepted the challenge or began the challenge- the games are just gone within 3 minutes of moving it down into “their turn” section. Can you fix this?

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026
I have been hacked three times by people in Nigeria.

Zynga is not responding to me about how to respond when I’ve been hacked. It’s very sad when senior citizens who are retired get hacked by someone with no scruples.

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026
Not what it used to be

This used to be such a simple and fun game. As if the ads weren’t enough, they’ve tried to cram too much nonsense into it and have made it too difficult to even find a game you’ve already started. It wasn’t broke. They fixed it til it is. Disappointing
