Pretty close, definitely enjoyable!

I miss Bookworm so much and I was super excited to finally find a game that’s almost the same. I enjoy playing this game a lot. Just a few things I’ve noticed so far: my bonus word is “SUQ” but there are only “Qu” tiles so it looks like I’ll never get the bonus word. I wish the letter was just Q. Plus there are other words that have Q in them without U right after. Secondly, I liked in bookworm how you could tap the last letter of the word you created to submit it, rather than having to hit submit at the top. My last note is that I just miss our little worm friend. But I’m sure that’s a copyright issue. :) Overall, awesome game!

Thank you for the review. Good catch with the bonus word. I will change the Qu to just Q to fix this in the next update.

Almost Perfect, But Not Quite

I’ve been looking for a bookworm clone ever since it lost Apple app support. This is a very good replacement. I wish you could double tap the last letter of a word to submit it though. It’s a little thing that greatly improves the game experience.

Almost as good as Bookworm

I started playing this game today. I like it, but I have a few issues with it. First of all, when you have a really good tile like a blue tile and a burning tile comes down and you haven’t used it yet, it will immediately come down and cover the blue tile. In Bookworm, it would wait a few seconds before taking away the blue tile but in this game it doesn’t. Secondly, a lot of words I question if they are real words. And I don’t think abbreviations should be used, like DEC for December etc. and thirdly, there are just too many burning tiles that come down. There’s hardly ever a time when you just have a clear board with no burning tiles.

Has potential, but needs work

Love the concept of this game, but the execution falls short. Graphics are basic and remind me of a 70's video game. When trying to highlight letters, they are not always picked up the first, second or even third try. I am having to use a stylus to help pickup tiles. Even then, not all are being captured. Makes playing this game very difficult. I look forward to watching this game evolve. It has a lot of potential. Good thing it is free now as I would definitely be getting a refund otherwise.
