★★★★★Oct 22, 2026

constant unsolicited games beginning despite all setting set to ensure it doesn't happen. Super slow to load. More ads than the Superbwl. Gimmick after gimmick to make it cheap and flashy. Truly a horrible experience. I would give it 0 stars if I could.

★★★★★Oct 22, 2026

Excellent games words

★★★★★Oct 22, 2026

to many ads geez

★★★★★Oct 22, 2026

no comment:;)!?

★★★★★Oct 21, 2026

One of the most obnoxious interfaces I have come across in a long time. I used to play the old version with some relatives and friends who liked Scrabble. haven't played in a few years. Older relative just asked me to join him and play, so I downloaded the new version. It's pretty much one ad for another game after another. No easy way to get out of the ads. no easy way to find just the dang word game you want to play. it's horrible.

★★★★★Oct 21, 2026

I seem to have lost all the other players I had been playing with.
