I have been playing this game for years, there was a time when I put it down but didn’t delete it because I enjoy the puzzles. I enjoyed guessing from the clues and if that wasn’t possible, guessing from the tiles sometimes I have even challenged myself to only guess from the tiles and not even use the clues, because I didn’t like to use the hints. When I came back to the game I noticed the drastic game changes. I am a blind player using Voice Over and I loved how the game was when I first started playing. Now when I go in to the game it has a delay when it only says direct touch area and then it sort of starts to recognize the screen elements and randomly while playing it will not read the screen and go back to just saying direct touch area. Another issue is I am unable to go through each clue letter by letter, which is helpful because sometimes I can’t tell what Voice Over is saying, when I try to use the rotor and swipe down it says something like read clue by word but it doesn’t do that. Lastly is how much I get booted from the game or I will randomly get booted to another app right in the middle of game play. It is just so frustrating playing the game now if you are a Voice Over user, I used to play multiple puzzles a day in one sitting but now I get so frustrated I just do the daily ones and give up. It would really be nice if you guys can do what another player asked for and have a toggle to play using the classic version so that Voice Over users can play without all of the current incompatibilities.
Thank you very much for reaching out with your concerns. When we moved the app to a new technology, we had to change the way text-to-speech was handled, and it had been a long process of adjustment. We encourage you to report issues directly to support@blueox.email so we can help you personally.
