Simple enough – it's a variation on the word game Perquacky. You roll the dice and make words. The words are grouped by length and when you get 5 of a length, you get a nice bonus but the value for that length goes down. In the advanced version you get extra letters and time as you complete sets. Oh, and you can't just add an s to a word, but there are some transforms you can get away with.As for the devs, they've been friendly, responsive and now they're back. Because Apple doesn't keep your purchases when the dev stops paying I lost access for a while. But the devs found my old email and let me know they had updated it! Since I already owned this, I went and bought their other games. We're all happy here and hope word game fans will be happy too.

I love Perquackey; Quackery captures the game, perhaps even better than the original. Advanced play mode gives you more time when you get a great board, and puts you out of your misery quickly on a bad board. I also like that you get bonus letters every time you reach a point bonus. It makes it possible to keep going with more and longer words.The latest version makes the indicators at the top left side of the board display clearly, even on the small screen. It's now really easy to know when you've finished a category. This is a wonderful change, and that's why I've now given this app five stars. This game is now GREAT on all 5 of the I-devices my family owns. It's one of our favorite games of all time. Thanks for making it!

It is as close to Perquackey as you can get on an iPad...I wish I could see how well I did on that roll compared to others...or to play with others on the web. But, glad to have it.

I am not as big of a fan of the way quackery doesn't do rounds (you start a new game every time). The game sometimes will move the letters that I am trying to swipe across. Also, I would really like a larger playing area to better keep myself organized (as you spell more words you start earning additional letters and you field of play gets full). Perhaps this issue is taken care of by playing on an iPad?Overall a good game.
