Words With Friends Word Game Reviews

by Zerokool23

I’ve been playing since 2011 and noticed some things along the way. I’m finally irked enough to write a review. First off, most apps on here have a sole purpose and that is to make money for the developer and it seems to me like they use clever algorithms in order to achieve this with WWF. I always end up with all consonants or all vowels and then use a free swap that I’ve earned (you can purchase them as well) and then get more of the same essentially wasting your free swap. You might say that can happen in real life, but if you’ve played long enough you can almost predict it. I also know there are some games that I will statistically have no chance to win when all of the high value tiles go to your opponent. Again, just a pattern I’ve notice. I’ve also noticed that in the tile bag they always try to keep the consonants and vowels fairly even so I know it’s not random. Then in Quick Play where you need to have a ticket to play I would get glitches that to me seem like they are on purpose. For instance I started a game and could see my opponent already racking up points before the screen finished loading my screen to play. Sometimes I would use a ticket and it would take me back to the beginning screen and I would lose my ticket. I refuse to spend money on WordsWithFriendsWordGame because I know it’s like playing Vegas. The odds are never in your favor. I still play it, but just know you won’t have a chance it certain games.

Nov 2021: even a few moves without no ads, they will make you wait even longer than ads with their own stuffs; Oct 2021: a wonderful ads downloader! And , My iPhone 7 can last long hours until I play this game. Sep 2021: make my iPhone 7 really slow, and my phone is so hot every time I run this game. How come this game rated so high points? I doubt, please anybody look into the reviews. This game has been renamed: Ads With Friends 2: Many! It’s absolutely a Ads app where you can play a bit game. Add more comments: Meanwhile you can play another game: Spot how many ads you can find, FOR EVERY MOVE. Below wrote years ago: Recently I see lot of ads many last 15 secs even without even a mute button and certainly cannot stop before time running out. You already have user to watch (actually download) a video FOR EVERY MOVE, and now you even put some 15 secs ads which is like an humiliation to free user while I think free users is a very important base from that you can have paid users and the paid user can find more users easily. I put a pic on my icon saying 'newer a version, longer the ads'. I love this game while I do agree ads is reasonable thing, I just cannot accept that much, sorry I'm quiting. Next time if you have a reasonable ads version, put it on the 1st line of 'what's new' column so that I can see as I won't try them any more and test if ads are little bit less (after all sessions completed from now). The game itself is great indeed.

I’ve deleted the Words With Friends 2 app after sending the review shown below. I waited until I received a response which was of no help. WordsWithFriendsWordGame is a disaster and I read reviews and saw that many players feel the same way. It doesn’t deserve even a one star rating. Nothing but ads that freeze requiring me to power off to get back to the game, lightning round games that disappear during the game, all the additional games, having to purchase coins, etc. It’s ridiculous and I’m glad I deleted it. I wish I never downloaded Words 2 but was forced into it because chat was disabled on Words With Friends and the only way to enable it was by downloading Words 2 which I think is a ridiculous way to deal with people. Since downloading Words 2 the game constantly freezes up. I cannot click on games to get to the games I’m playing. I have to click on Events first. When I play a word and ads appear, more times than not the ad does not allow me to exit or delete it. I have to power off in order to return to the game. This is a disaster and disabling chat then telling me that a solution is to download Words 2 is a ridiculous way of forcing people into downloading a different version of the game which I had no desire to do. Not a fair way to deal with people.

I deleted the Words 2 app. Games were always dropping or freezing. Too many annoyances with all the other things going on. It was impossible to just enjoy playing the game.

by ZenJim

When words with friends started it was fun to play and a nice way to interact with family that are scattered around the world. But that’s no longer the case. Zynga kept adding more and more annoying crap to the point where I’ve had enough. I’ve logged out and will never play another zynga game. Update: zynga sends the same form reply they always send. Empty promises yet again. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Update 2: zynga sends reworded b.s. sorry zynga but your track record shows that you have no intention of making the game more fun. For years you have been making the game more and more annoying and less enjoyable. Look at recent reviews. Do the 1 and 2 star reviews give you a clue? Probably not since you have years of experience ignoring your customer base. Zynga thinks adding more and more to the game makes it more enjoyable. Wrong. It’s gotten to where you get some kind of award for almost everything you do. Open the game get an award. Play 5 letters get an award. Get out of bed get an award. Get annoyed with the game get an award. 🤦🏻‍♂️ hey zynga, sometimes people just want a nice easy game without all the b.s. get a clue.

Update 3: zynga sends another reply saying to contact support if I have any game related issues. Guess what zynga?! I have. Time and time again for a very long time. And guess what I received each and every time? The same canned response and no action on your part.

I have been unhappy with this ‘once upon a time fun’ app for a long time. It is the most ad-glutted ‘free’ app out there. To opt out of ads and go to premium is at least triple what other apps ask, but this last spate of changes to rules and rewards (if they can be called that) have me on the verge of just quitting WordsWithFriendsWordGame . I am down to playing only two, sometimes three friends because I won’t engage others, but rather play them on Wordfeud. One of the features I always enjoyed was the solo challenge and working up through levels of difficulty. The annoying wait to play the next opponent could sometimes be eliminated by watching an ad. Of course. Okay- but ONE ad. Now it is two, unless you, yes, wait! I find it next to impossible to get through the tiers of players anymore. The tokens needed for free swaps are stingier than ever and I end up having to play against the ‘expert’ level computer player making phenomenal words while I have a rack of three e’s and four i’s because I have no swaps. (Unless I want to spend actual money, of course!) Swaps were what made it fun to play solo. Thanks for taking the fun out of a fun app. For making your reward system stingy and perks scanty. I get ‘free’ apps come at the cost of ads, but yours are disproportional and attaining reward tokens to get any power ups is the final defeat and frustration for solo players.

by DelBeesu

There is waaaaaay too much going on in WordsWithFriendsWordGame. When you open it up, you are bombarded with messages about treasure hunts and mini games and contests, ads, and then when you finally get to the main menu there are always like 3 games that you didn’t agree to play with random strangers that you have to actively go into to tell it to decline in order to remove it. Underneath that there are suggestions for random strangers for you to play. There have been times where I missed that it was my turn in the one game I’m playing for over a day because there’s so much going on that I just couldn’t see our game in the menu and see that it was my turn.

Then there are “tips” where WordsWithFriendsWordGame wants you to know about a feature. Sometimes it’s hints, or a new thing that you can earn points for for whatever, but they are impossible to exit out of without agreeing to do the thing, which is really obnoxious. There have also been times where I’ve been forced to go into some new section of WordsWithFriendsWordGame that I’m not interested and couldn’t figure out how to get back to the main screen, and has to just close WordsWithFriendsWordGame and reopen it.

This has got to be one of the most overwhelming, obnoxious apps I’ve ever used. The only reason I didn’t delete it immediately is because my friend who I never get to see really wanted to play scrabble, and we used to play in WordsWithFriendsWordGame when it was new and less insane. I may delete it after this game though.

I love words with friends. I would give it five stars if I was given the ability to turn chat on and off more readily. I play lightening round and love it. However, as soon as I play lightening round I get invited to play 1:1 games, almost exclusively with creepy men. I’m happy to play but they all have pathetically low scores because they never finish games. They immediately start in with chat. I barely chat with my real friends, I DO NOT chat with strangers, particularly creeps. The fact that I agree to play a game that I was invited to does not obligate me to have a conversation that I have no interest in having.
Secondly, I paid to have no ads. Lately you are hounding me to permit cookies and tracking. Absolutely not. Not a chance. None of your business.
I also paid for coins to buy power ups and all of a sudden I’m being charged extra to use the power ups! Hot flash- I WILL NOT be buying coins again in the future.
I am super diligent about upgrading my device and the game on a regular basis. The game crashes, in mid game, in the “ quick play “ events all the time, booting out either myself or my opponent. We lose the game and the chance to play another, unless, of course we’d like to PAY for another game. Nope.
You need to retool a few things. When there is an update post a notification. Tone down the creeps, I’m not looking for a date.

by Lola573IG

Updated review - again with the notification showing that I have games to play and when I go into WordsWithFriendsWordGame , there aren’t any games there. Coins given for certain events are a joke. The number of ads are ridiculous. Your phone could be muted and the ad will play at the highest decibel level possible with no way to mute it. Ad free is $10 for ONE MONTH. Not worth it. I only play because I’ve been playing for years and enjoy word games but I’m getting close to never playing this game again

Biggest issue is that everyone once in a while an influx of scam games start. When they start chatting, I start declining. There was just an update to the game and someone sent me messages after I ended the game and that game is not showing up on my completed list. So now it’s showing that I have 2 notifications. No biggie but when you have OCD and see that notification you want to get rid of it and you can’t If you send a message to the help desk, you get an automated message saying reboot the game, log out log back in basic TS steps that should be done prior to reaching out to them anyway. If you get a response, you sometimes need to state your needs 2 or 3 times before any resolution. Sometimes I just don’t even bother reaching out to them. Help desk not very helpful

by Starcourt Mall

So I only gave this 3 stars because WordsWithFriendsWordGame has a few problems. Otherwise it’s a pretty good game! I love that you can play games with tons of different people and that there are the solo challenges! But there are a few problems that get in the way. 1) There are ads after EVERY SINGLE TURN YOU TAKE. There is only one exception of this: the solo challenges. 2) sometimes I don’t even get my games when it’s my turn! I’ve had to lose countless games because it never came up that it was my turn! That i found was very annoying, and the only way that I’ve figured out how to find those games is if you log out and then log back in again. And every time you log out, even if it’s just for a second, you get all of these new player notifications, like it didn’t even realize you had been gone for a second. 3) sometimes, it says it’s my turn and then I can’t even play. It won’t let me click on games sometimes, I’ve tried reloading my app several times, and it never worked! And finally 4) the time limit on games. I think personally this is pretty annoying, you have like 10-12 days or something to play your turn, or you lose! I’m not trying to spend every day on WordsWithFriendsWordGame! I’ve got other things to do, and sometimes I won’t come on WordsWithFriendsWordGame for a week or more! But overall I do like the concept, but if those few things could get fixed, then I definitely would highly recommend this game. Thanks for taking the time to read this!

I always play Words with Friends 2 with my Apple Pencil on my iPad. I use it to scroll through the game and move tiles. However, With the new update to iOS 14, WordsWithFriendsWordGame will not allow me to use the pencil to grab tiles once I open a game. Instead, now the pencil just scribbles all over the game board and there is no option to turn this off. I don’t need to scribble on a scrabble game board, it’s not a coloring page. It is pointless. So far, all other apps I’ve opened work fine with the pencil. Please fix to still allow the pencil to also be used to play the game by scrolling and grabbing tiles, not just as a drawing tool.

Other issues I have is if you use a Word Radar and then leave that board, when you return the game closes the “radar” and then makes you “buy” another radar. They didn’t use to do this and it seems petty. Also, I like that that they allow you to change the game tile within each individual game. However, in one of my games it keeps reverting to this one game tile that I hate. Even though I have changed both my universal default tile and the individual game tile, every time I open the individual game it reverts back to this other tile that I can’t stand. It is annoying.

I love WWF but constant little glitches happen enough to where I felt I needed to say something here.

I have played Words With Friends for 10 years as of this month. It is a game I have spent thousands of hours playing and enjoyed very much. During the past several months, however, for me at least, the game has become very glitchy. While I like most of the new features, I am becoming increasingly frustrated with the game freezing up, and often not navigating from one page to another. When this happens, the screen either goes entirely black, or black with a perpetually spinning yellow W tile. After waiting for some time, I get tired and exit the game. If I try to return in 5 to 10 minutes, it still has not fixed itself. Occasionally, if I am impatient to return to the game, I shut my phone off for a couple of minutes, then turn it back on to resume play. I keep my phone updated with Apple software updates and Words With Friends updates; however, these problems do not resolve. I encounter these problems every single time I play WordsWithFriendsWordGame, and consequently am playing it less often than previously, although usually at least one time every day. Before the glitches became so persistent, I used to return to the game multiple times in one day. I would love for the game to function as smoothly as it once did. If that happens, I will bump my rating back up to 5 stars as it is a game I love to play.

by Wendy1222

I started playing this game in 2011 and play daily now. I play the Lightning Round on a regular basis, which seems to bring the scammers out in full force. These are the ones who immediately chat and call me “dear friend” at once. Then they start asking personal questions about my marital status, how old I am, what do I do for a living, where I live, etc. It’s apparent from the grammar and spelling they are not in the US (we don’t spell “colour” with a “u” and asking me how the weather is “over there” are dead giveaways. They’re either on an oil rig somewhere or in the military overseas and involved in world peace. Most immediately volunteer where they were born and where they now live, like I give a flying flip about that. All are widowers with one child. They almost immediately ask me to chat on Hangouts to get to know me better (I flat out refuse), and if I state that I don’t chat or I change my profile picture or name to NO CHAT, they resign immediately. I’ve tested that theory repeatedly and it always happens, although they do their best to convince me they’re not like the rest and how could I not want to be friends. The internet is full of stories about these morons but I see no effort by WWF admin to kick them out. It’s freaking annoying, even women do it, and I’m disappointed you don’t protect your players better from these idiots.

by Fillinger52

I enjoy most aspects of the game such as the variety of events, the ability to earn points, stars, etc, and the competition. I don’t enjoy the glitches from time to time that not even updating WordsWithFriendsWordGame improves. These are things like taking away games when playing duels, not being able to find the quick start games with just using the plus button, not being able to play a game in rivers as it never comes up oh and who cares about the back button. I love free trades and all the plays left especially at the end of the game but the best move is not always the best move although it is 90% of the time so well worth it. What I still dislike about it the most are all the men who are trying to use a free game app as a dating service, they are annoying, constantly trying to chat when you want to play and sometimes rude. They are predictable in that they are always widows, have one child-usually a girl, and either work in over seas oil rigs or in the military. I have heard from some of the ladies that they have been asked for money and or preloaded cards. Keep adding new ways to earn points and take off some. With duels who needs the the old timed games. Also, even though I contact you with issues I get no feedback or corrections. I’ve had the same number of original words for over eight years and it never changes. And there are a couple other things not even worth mentioning.

by Blondah

I normally do quite well in solo challenge. It used to be my favorite game in Words with Friends. However,The last two times I’ve gotten to the last character to play to end the challenge for the last box, it’s cost all the coins I’ve earned from watching ads before I even start. When I buy the swap, I get even worse letters than I had before. One particular game with “Gaia” has been the worst. Gaia has all the best letters each hand, and even if I use my coins to swap each hand, I get the same letters I just had or worse! Once I got all vowels! I’ve played her at least 7 times and lost every game! And the same happens with the other challenges. Plus, they play words I’ve never heard of, and I taught English at the college level and high school levels.
The Fast Game I play is the one where you play one other player in 45(?) seconds each play. If the other player doesn’t play, then you sit in “WAITING” mode forever! If you choose to cancel out of the game after waiting several minutes, you forfeit your points, and lose the game even though the other player has no points! Ugh!
I’ve been playing this game since it came out, and I enjoy these challenges more than the regular games with friends. I still enjoy playing with “friends,” and will continue to play, but I’m rather annoyed by the solo challenge and the fast play.

by Jokael2

There has to be some way to vet out these scammers who begin unsolicited conversations with women. They are relentless and annoying, and they have the same script. I don’t believe most of them are native English speakers based on their canned conversations and poor game-playing. After I accepted several challenges (I hoped they were due to being ‘smart matched’ with someone), 3 different men all started similar conversations with me ‘hello dear’ or using my name in another one. Then in 2 of them it led almost immediately to ‘where are you from’ and in one straight to ‘so, are you married?’ In one where I didn’t answer his repeated ‘hellos’, he finally said ‘so you don’t chat?’ I answered that and told him hello, but I was leery of chatting due to being asked those questions. He said he understood. Then next question was ‘so, where are you from?’ That’s when I looked up words with friends trolls, and found that this is a thing where ppl have actually been
scammed. I don’t know what the answer is except to never say yes to a game or maybe just never open conversations with people I don’t know, but in the past I was able to say ‘good game’ or ‘nice word’ without worrying someone was going to try to solicit money from me.
I love the game itself, so this stinks.

by Kat€B

Look, I know you all want us to purchase the ad free version. Sorry, but I don’t play enough to make that happen. So I use the ad version and there is a big problem with this. I often play while waiting in a waiting room or while watching TV with other people. I have my phone on silent. But , some of your ad refuse to be silent! All of a sudden there is a blast of noise from an ad that refuses to shut up! I go into a high anxiety panic trying to silence this ad that I didn’t even want to see! Also, suddenly all the ads are 30 seconds long and you can’t get past them. It gets where we see the same ad over and over and it is frustrating. There are a couple of games that I have seen the ads for about 1,000,000,000 times. I have begun to absolutely hate them. I will never download those games just because I have seen the ads far too much.
Okay, done with the rant about the ads.
The game itself is good. The badges are a nice touch and they make you want to get more points. The other little games in the game such as collecting things to get a new box is also fun. The dictionary is good and helpful. But, the dictionary often has words that it says it cannot define. Also, some foreign words are accepted but some aren’t. The game itself has done well with no glitches. I have enjoyed it a lot.

by Ari_Z12

This is my favorite Scrabble-type mobile game and is popular with everyone I know for providing a quality experience. One feature I particularly liked was the ability to see the definition and a link to a dictionary entry for most words played when the game is set to English. This feature is something that sets WordsWithFriendsWordGame apart from playing the traditional board game, and when combined with other gameplay improvements, it definitely makes WordsWithFriendsWordGame better than the tediousness that sometimes is experienced when playing Scrabble by hand.

What keeps this from being 5 stars for me is that not all words when the game is set to English have an associated definition or dictionary entry (will say something like “definition unavailable”), which makes it confusing how the developers chose what words make the cut for being playable. It also takes away from the learning aspect WordsWithFriendsWordGame provides in being able to expand your vocabulary when an unusual word with no definition is played (e.g. Qi). I play equally in two languages, and the dictionary feature is absent altogether in the second language I play in (Portuguese). I would imagine it probably is only present in English, and would be glad to see it improved and expanded to other languages in the future.

by StephanieS1227

I play this game often and I enjoy it, but I have been noticing that when I play the lightning rounds with groups, I get an overwhelming amount of men sending me 1:1 games. I know for certain that some of them are Nigerian catfish masquerading as U.S. servicemen and surgeons who are working for the UN and on assignment overseas. I am extremely resourceful when it comes to investigating and can say without any uncertainty that the men are catfish. If anyone from WWF ops wants to discuss, I would be happy to reveal my sources. Also, when I play QuickPlay, my game lags - majorly. My board will still be loading and the opponent has 50 points before I can even look at my letters. Then, in between words, the board will load and load and by the time it finally does, the game is over and I have lost. Other times, it will say it’s searching for an opponent and I will close out of the game to restart and try again and a game is in progress and I’m about to lose, which wastes a turn. There are a lot of glitches and the catfishing needs to be addressed. For the time being, I have changed my photo to one of my dog to deter weirdos from sending me games. I have still received quite a few and I’m thinking I may need to be a bit of a catfish myself and change my photo to a sumo wrestler and my name to “Butch” or something of the like to play unscathed.

I have been playing this game for a few years now but I did take a break because of the overwhelming amount of men trying to pick you up. I play Everyday and sometimes for a couple of hours at a time. I enjoy most of the features and hope it just keeps getting better. I really wanted to give it four stars some things are nerve wracking with this game. The first is that when I go to watch a 30 second video to accumulate coins half the time it doesn’t work and keeps saying that it’s loading for a whole day. Please fix that. I also wish these videos gave at least 5 coins at a time but that’s not a big deal and is just my opinion. The other thing is that I continue to get game requests from men with a fake profiles. As stated in so many other reviews if you don’t chat and go to hangouts or other dating like websites they stop playing. Then that game will take up a game spot for 10+ days unless I resign which then messes up my stats. There has to be a way to work around this. Overall I love this game it’s my favorite of all time. I hope that it keeps improving and look forward to any new features.
P.S I played a player a few days ago that had rainbow tiles. I asked her several times how she had the option for that style but she completely ignored me. I’m wondering is that something you would have to buy cause I would LOVE that.

by Duchess Jo

I’ve played reg WWF til it disappeared but glad to have this back. I am bombarded with scammers every single day though band messages flashing are so annoying. I don’t mind having little chats with people but I run their pics on google and it’s crazy how many scammer/ impersonators of innocent people there are playing. I’m avoiding nice people as well now. When I see a message I can’t read it unless I let them in. Then they persist. How to weed them out I’m not sure but I hate seeing platforms for these people to take advantage of others. Can we separate new players from contacting people for a time period where they might give up using this platform they aren't here to play they only use three or four letter words then hound people. After one turn. What if you block new players from chat saying “chat isn’t available able at this time” snd keep them off chatting until they have stuck it out . If they are average people they won’t quit the game if scammers they will quit immediately when there’s no contact with others . They won’t take time to play because playing isn’t their goal.

by Caltagm

This game used to be fun. Scrabble is fun. Just by itself. But apparently the geniuses behind WWF2 thought they could make it even better. So they destroyed it. The game is now so crowded with awards and levels and challenges and a ton of crap that it makes playing the game a tedious disaster. There is so much extraneous garbage that it takes 10-20 seconds to load the board every time I switch to the game. I’m not talking about opening it from closed. I’m talking about switching from my email or messaging to the game that is already in progress. Now it even bogs down when I play a word. The whole screen will freeze up for 10-15 seconds before eventually moving on. The game locks up for 15 seconds if my opponent sends me a chat message while I’m playing! And when the game is over and you try to start a new game, you can’t tell if it’s working because there is no response to touching the new game button. So you hit it a couple times and the stupid thing eventually opens four or five new games. It’s frustrating and ridiculous. There should be a way to opt out of all those absurd “gaming” levels and challenges and crap. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. It wasn’t and now you’ve broken it. So this time it’s up to you to go make it right.

Oh and there should be some way to provide feedback to the developer beyond writing a review.

I’ve been playing WWF for many years; at this point honestly I’m not sure how long but I think since 2010 or 2011 - ever since I’ve had an iPhone I think. I participate in the events, and enjoy the wins of coins and power ups of course. But I’m really tired of the rewards being skimped on every time the game updates. For instance, the master solo challenges; it’s always the case on the hardest level I have all vowels and 1 point letters and the “very hard” master (computer generated of course” has all the high point letters. Also you used to get the gold chest for completing the expert side but now al of a sudden it’s just based on star accumulation when before that was a separate reward. This is really the last straw for me!!! Additionally, the rewards pass has gone from a reward at every level to now every other level. Did you think we don’t notice these things? Listen - I’m never going to buy coins, power ups, or upgrades but we should not be punished because we won’t buy in to the gimmick. Stop skimping and being greedy; you have enough players buying unnecessary fluff who can afford it. I’ve already deleted all my other level based games due to this and decided to keep this one because I thought it was different. Keep up the greedy and you lose me too.

Great game improvement over regular WWF ,more fun, interesting and challenging.
Buggy! Buggy! Buggy! Buggy‼️
I play daily both on my iPhone and iPad. When I started playing WWF2, there were a few incidents per month, where I had to re-boot my iPhone10. Whenever they come out with a new update, the game will crash consistently 2-4 x’s per week prior; progressively worsening to daily until you update. Then crashing is less, but still somewhat buggy after. I updated to the Winter Wonderland last week on my iPad. The first day it crashed completely and would not clear with re-booting,(times 6). I had to completely re-install the game and lost all my stored credits, history and advancements. Understandably, I have been dragging my feet about updating my iphone10 to this Winter Wonderland version, yet the game crashes several times daily and yesterday I was cheated out of 18 coins from the watch the ads binge they offer you when you claim the daily bonus! There is no avenue to contact them to report problems. Most of the problems occur when the ads play, the screen can freeze, turn dark, or the logo just spins. Hint, hint, ever pushing for you to pay for the no-ad upgrade which is expensive.

I love to play this game to relax; however, this game frustrate me instead. The achievement system is not reliable. I finished level 20 and should have to 21. In my profile still shows me as level 20. I am now working to earn level 22. It’s very frustrating when one works hard to achieve a level and your system takes away. In different device it’s shows correct level 21, but in this device I am using it shows level 20. I delete WordsWithFriendsWordGame and reloaded WordsWithFriendsWordGame and is still showing my image with a 20.
Also, there are too many words that are allowed which aren’t really words. When I look for definition there is none. This game allows foreign language words when I am playing in English. I understand that there are some foreign words that have been adopted and integrated into English language and are acceptable to use, but the words I see are definable not in common use.
I wish the developers would take the time to read the reviews. I read a few and they all have the same issues in common. Please read the reviews! You ask for a rating, but you don’t read the reviews. This a great game to play, but you need to fix all the glitches. We are all telling you the problems. Listen to us .

I’ve had this message a couple of times, usually when trying to start a practice game. There is no way get rid of this open game, that you cannot play, that counts as one of your open practice games AND there is no way to contact the developer, outside of writing a review for the game itself, to help get rid of it. The last time this happened, they were responsive and got rid of the game for me. This time, however, not so much. I have had a practice game open, that I cannot play, for 189 days.

I play the game every day. And other reviewers are indeed correct - the number of trollers has increased 10 fold over the past year or so. Now before I ever accept a game, I look up their profile to see when they became a member. If they’re new, I decline the game. I got tired of them holding up games for 10 days because I chose not to chat with them. A few are decent and will resign the game right away, but most are not. They will wait until the game resigns itself. I have put my settings so as NOT to be the daily match person, but they still find me. I sure with the developers could do something about this! And, I wish they’d close this practice game that’s been open for 189 days for me!

Great game to play with friends and all that if you’re a word game player type of person and all that... and I love playing the game with my friends and all that...but one game I am having a message popping up saying “Oops! Something went wrong!” And then it takes me back to the main menu where all my other friends are that I play against and everything is normal on the games I play with them...but it’s just one friend that I have been playing with and we’ve been playing against each other on a game on words with friends and all that and I messaged them on Facebook messenger if they’ve been getting the same message as I am getting and they said yes to the something went wrong message and then I asked them if they got the same message on any of their other friends games... and they said “no...just our game” and all that and I would appreciate it if someone could please help me and tell me how to get rid of the “Oops! Something went wrong!” Message on my iPhone and iPad for the words with friends 2 app and all that please. Has anyone else ever encountered with the same problem as I am having here and asking for help on here?
