Wordelicious Reviews

The ads get ridiculous after a while. I am at the point that there is an ad after every level so I’m spending more time helping the developers make money than I am actually enjoying the decent game they ha e developed. In order to purchase the ad feee version it costs $2/month or $10/year. What a freaking joke. Why would anyone pay that much to play this game only to end a few recipes you can find with a quick search??

I like the idea but this game is sooooo laggy. And I was shocked too. Its only still pictures so why is it so laggy like that. Also this game drains my battery so quickly and after a few mins its below 50% are you kidding me!

One last thing is that these “untargeted” words only count when they feel like it. So it accepts the word read but not the word ram or kids. Are you kidding me? Did the developers manually input words to accept and reject in each level? Such a broken mess. Wordscapes is so much better than this.

I have not played long enough to know if I want the ad free version, nor will I ever get there. After playing a round, which takes less than 10seconds, I am expected to watch 30 seconds of ads. The game is soooooosimple. Wish the difficulty would gradually increase so that you were looking for more words. Three or four a round is a waste of time. Deleting as soon as I post this.

The recipes are a fun idea but the ads really ruin the fun. I understand they need to play ads to make the game free, but there is a 15 to 30 second ad (or more!) after every round. Some of the rounds are only three words so you spend almost three times of your time watching ads than you do actually playing the game. I’ll be deleting this game after writing this review. It’s just not worth my time.

Aside from the time that was put into the concept of the recipes/world travel, this game was not too different from many of the other "word search" games already out there. Not to mention it is PACKED with ads between every round (and every time you sneeze, there's another one!) The concept is amusing, but it takes more time to sort through the ads and "claim" all of the bits and actions taken in the game than actually playing it.

The recipes seemed good, but I haven't had a chance to make them and only ended up with 3-4 of them before I gave up on this game being enjoyable. Not worth the hassle (and hopefully not being charged for something in this sneaky game that doesn't show up until later.)

I actually liked this game in the beginning. The more I played it changed my enjoyment of the games. I like to think I’m fairly intelligent but the words they come up with I’ve never heard of before. Even the 3 letter words. It becomes a guessing game to figure them out quite frequently I am 65 years old and have no brain impairment. I’m deleting Wordelicious and going to download another. Also I can’t get a definition of the word on Wordelicious . Bye bye. I would loved to enjoyed Wordelicious more.

This game would be more fun if I didn’t spend more than half (YES! more than half) my time watching ads that don’t interest me. Watching an ad for 30-45 seconds then having to wait another 5-15 seconds as if you think I need extra time to make up my mind.
One more thing, you need to expand your list of acceptable words.

The game is fun but there is an ad after. every. single. challenge.
Some of the ads put you into a loop that takes a long time to get out of. I guess they hope to wear you down enough that you finally just install Wordelicious they’re trying to get you to try. You will spend more time in ads than playing the actual game. Deleting Wordelicious after this review.

I understand ads are necessary since the game is free but is it necessary to have 20-30 seconds of ads after every play? I’ll be deleting Wordelicious unfortunately because the ads kill the enjoyment.

Unlike what the ad shows, this is just like any of the other games where you connect the letters to form words. And, it takes longer to watch the ad between each round than it does to play the round. Not worth my time.

I am enjoying this game. I’m not sure why so many people are saying there are non-words. I have not had a single issue with that. I like the fact that we work towards getting the recipes. Interesting. What I don’t like is the fact that not every word is in the dictionary of Wordelicious. I try many common words and they are not recognized. You shouldn’t just pick and choose which words you want here. Put EVERY word into the game. There are many other games like this that do. Also I agree, this is not at all what was advertised. I think you need a few more adjustments. Yes, the ads are sickening, way too many. At least, space them apart a little more. This is the worst turn-off. Thank you.

Thank you for your quick response. I understand that you can’t please everyone, just throwing ideas out there. 🙂

The Country and recipe idea is fun and a little informative. But much of the word finding part is not. While it is extremely simple with 3-5 letter words, there are tons of legit words not recognized - who, ram, sin to name a few. And there doesn’t seem to be a way to change the challenge level. Clearly Wordelicious has the ability to generate more difficult puzzles since the daily challenges are way more difficult.

I like it and liked the more challenging one (“LAPSING”) that had longer words but then it switched to easy ones again? Not sure why it wouldn’t accept “pain” in the challenging one nor did it “bank” words that weren’t included in the words they want!??
Words I had were: gain, sign, sing, pail, sail, ping, sapling, plain(s) . . . And many others

P.S. bc I have an eating disorder I don’t really like having the food and recipes but . . The name is a play on “delicious” sooo I guess that’s my problem

I like to play these games. This one is cute around the world game. Visually appealing. Bonus recipes. Nice! .... weeks later, I gave this a good review; but, I have changed my mind. WAY TOO MANY ADS. Fix that and you will have a cute game.

Wordelicious is good, but frustrating, since it rejects good words; uses a lot of archaic old English, and apparently rejects American English. words. Some “words” accepted are not words in any dictionary and not acceptable as Scrabble words. Nevertheless, I keep playing. Note to authors: Doe is a word. A deer; a female deer. So are pin, nip, and many more.

I’m really loving this game!! It’s just challenging enough to keep your brain sharp without making you feel stupid. Now if we could get rid of the advertising 🥺

Enjoy your trivia collection from around the world. Traveling at home. Totally enjoy this online game that can challenge and give you a recipe! Yummy and no calories

I try to play one game each day, but with 20 levels, I have to break it up and play several times a day. I get a free recipe after the 20th game! Fun

This is an interesting word Amel my hope though is that it won't push to spend money. Ads should be enough! So far, so good.

I love it because it’s lots of fun. Now don’t get hooked on it!!!!!! (It’s that much fun, for sure). I’ve been playing it for two years or more. Thank you!
