Comments on Spelltower for Android

★★★★★ My game score does not sync to other devices. I love this game but how do I get score to sync
★★★★★ Great game, room for improvements This is by far one the best word game apps out there. My mom and I first downloaded this on her iPad years ago and I've enjoyed playing it ever since. There's still room for a lot of improvements, which is why I'm only giving it a 4 out of 5.
★★★★★ I've had this game almost 2 yrs I jus realized I still had my review from 2 yrs ago on here An I had to change it cuz I LOVE SPELLTOWER!!! This has been the best money I've spent since I've owned Androids which has been about 6 yrs This game is Awesome so Addicting I cnt get enuff its GREAT!!! THANKS DESIGNERS FOR THIS GAME!!! MONEY WELL SPENT DEF WUDNT CHANGE A THING.. My first review was a 2 an thats only cuz it was actin up but I haven't had a problem since not one!!!
★★★★★ My Favorite Game Ever I have played, downloaded, and deleted a boatload of word games over the past few years but this game has still remained, I can honestly say, a constant on all of my devices. I usually play when I'm drinking my coffee in the morning to get my brain up and running. It's like training for your gray matter. Who needs expensive apps like Luminosity, etc. when we have just as good or better right here? It's also a great time waster for those annoying wait times at doctor visits, motor vehicle renewal waits, etc. Whoever says it's boring is word-challenged (to put it nicely, so as not to call in to question another's intelligence. It's just a game ppl, lol). Five stars, a snap, neck roll, a nod and a nudge, peace sign, dueces, fist bump, explosion, a herky, basket toss, moonwalk, some interpretive dancing and a wave for this app! =)
★★☆☆☆ Argh I like this game a lot, but this is now the second time that an automatic update has wiped out my high scores. Now I'm back to zero. I'm pretty UNHAPPY.
★★☆☆☆ Very sad to give a one star review to my favourite game. But every few days it wipes my progress including in progress games. As I play the same games for days or weeks this is a deal-breaker. Other reviews have mentioned this so I assume the developer has given up on android development. That is their right but I'm very sad about it
★★☆☆☆ Great game, but it fully resets all the game data every few days, erasing progress, high scores, and record words.
★★☆☆☆ A full-time but keeps freezing and needs to be reinstalled to unfreeze. Hasn't been an update in 3 years. Should be free if the developer isn't going to work on it anymore.
