★★☆☆☆
I used to love this game but now I cannot play after the 3rd game because the screen becomes black and cannot continue. The only way around is to uninstall and reinstall. This is a pain so I have uninstalled it for good.
★★☆☆☆
So many ads this is NOT fun to play any more. It was the game I had the
longest till I went to play collapse and couldn't play because the ad
running over it used up all the time. So good bye favorite word game
