Word Battle: unscramble words 4+

Desperately needs updating

This could easily be one of the best word games out there, but it desperately needs some updates for iPhone. It could also use a few added features. I would love the ability to turn my phone and play in landscape mode. Unfortunately, there is no way that I can see to switch to landscape. Also, a way to shuffle the tiles would be AMAZING!!! Another thing that would really help speed up the game would be for everyone to be able to click “done” “ready” or “final” anything so that we don’t have to sit there 20 seconds waiting for the round to time out. Most of the time all four players (or however many) are finished making their word and we have to wait for the timer. 😒 A way to lock in your answer would really help this game. I’m not even sure if the creators of the game have any plans to improve or are even reading reviews. I haven’t seen an update in a very long time. It’s such a shame because this game is such a gem! It’s educational, interactive, challenging, competitive, and original. There are a lot of word games out there, but this one is my favorite.

Overall it’s a great game that can use some improvements. I love making words and competing and it’s a lot of fun playing with other people in real time.

Hi! Thanks for the suggestions! We're currently working on updating the web version of Word Battle, but we intend to update the iOS version in the future as well.

Fun, but would like some changes

I agree with some reviews regarding the words allowed or not. There have been words that I know are words but then something like gooses is allowed? Isn’t the plural of goose geese? And, some racist words are allowed as well🤔.

Also, when a “friend” invites us to play in a tournament and I accept, we could never connect? Only one time I made it to the tournament lobby, but no one was there? Not sure how to get there?

I also agree that the regular game should be less than 40sec.

Thanks for the review! "Goose" is also a verb, so "gooses" can be correct. You can send suggestions for adding/removing words to help@wordbattling.com

You are brought to the friend tournament after finishing the current game. If your friend has left the game or started it beforehand, you may be brought to an empty lobby.

Addicting!!

Great game! I’ve been playing for years now. Just hate that they tell you you’ll get extra coins for inviting friends, I never got the extra coins. You guys should offer more coins!! If I play everyday I only get 11 coins for the day and if I miss a day or two they lower the coins. Being a long time player I would think I’d get more coins. This is my opinion and it’s bothered me for years, finally decided to write the review about it. Other than that Word Battle is my all time favorite game,
Love it!
