Word Seek HD Reviews

I’m not sure this is your problem or an Apple problem but it is very annoying when you only play free games and make no in app purchases. I was having issues on the game, it starts lagging and when you click on the keys it doesn’t move the letters for a few seconds or not at all and it would just stay that way. It also has a problem where it shows double pics of the ads and a double garbled up ad audio track that will also just start to play while you are playing the game. Just the audio starts up on it’s own. This time I decided to uninstall and reinstall to see if that would fix the problems but then I couldn’t reinstall it cos it wants a better bank card. (Mine never has cash on it this time of month. Only for about the 1st to the 10th. So now I can’t install the game again until the 1st when my income deposits on my card. I think that is real screwed up that it does that.

I’ve played this game for quite some time and it’s pretty fun but I do have multiple complaints. First off, the mobility is not the best, it’s very ‘clanky,’ it doesn’t move smoothly which often messes up words. It isn’t a huge issue, but compared to other games with the same concept, it’s highly lacking. Yet, my biggest issue is the multiplayer aspect. It takes a very long time for phones to sync up. I couldn’t even use shareplay or invite a player while playing with a friend since they wouldn’t work, no matter how long we waited. I had to use quickmatch, which if the server was busy, would be a huge issue. Next, settings aren’t customizable in multiplayer like they are in single player. I prefer playing on 5x5, so only being able to play on 4x4 was a let down. Time is also not customizable, but that isn’t a huge issue for me, could be for others though. Lastly, my largest problem with multiplayer, the boards aren’t the same. This defeats my whole purpose of wanting to play multiplayer, as I wish to play on the same board. Having two different ones makes it less about one’s skill and relies more on luck for a better board. After finishing a round, I was kicked out every time, not being able to see whether I won or not, defeated my spirits, never wanting to return again. Multiplayer could be very fun if these issues were worked on, but as of right now, it’s all messy and not worth anyone’s time.

This is the best boggle game I’ve played, but I am giving it up because I am tired of losing my score when the ad (that you have to watch before getting your score) finishes and sends you back to your home screen rather than showing your score and letting you play on. Today, first game fine, second bombed. Third and fourth fine, fifth AND sixth bombed. Giving it up, too frustrating.

The game is good. Still haven’t gotten all of the words. I’ve never even seen them before.

My concern is with one of the “ads” that pops up when you end a game. It tells me my iPad memory is full (it isn’t) and to click on the “clear memory” icon. I’ve gotten it several times and have not clicked on the icon. It’s suspicious enough to me that I will be deleting WordSeekHD. Maybe it’s nothing, but I’m not taking chances.

At the end of a round there is always a huge list of words that you did not find, but many of these 'words' are absurd. Example: peh and pehs were listed in a game I just played. I looked up peh and it is an acronym, or the 17 th letter in the Hebrew alphabet. The player may as well close his eyes and just slide his fingers around randomly to get many of the possible 'words' and thereby increase his percentage.

This is the best “Boggle” style word game I have found so far, very fun to play. However it seems to crash often, and always at the very end of a round. I’d say this happens at least 10-20% of the time. I have an iPhone with the latest software version. Hope they fix this bug soon.

The game could also benefit from more variety in the board layout - as another user was saying, after you’ve played a few rounds it seems like you are always finding the same 5-7 letter words.

Despite these flaws, I keep coming back because it’s still addictive and fun to play!

I’ve been playing this game for a long time years. It’s one of my favorites. The only problem is they’ve added ads and it takes away from the game so much. Why do they have to add so many ads does it have to be an overload of ads? can it be a fewotherwise I enjoy the game. I just wish it wasn’t so many ads. I don’t play as often as I used to because of that.

Very fun if you are a wordie. A challenge I never tire of. I've even learned some new words. I have noticed, going over the word list after completing a round, that at times words I have definitely found are not crossed off the list. I have also found that words appear on the list which do not appear in a standard English dictionary and, even more surprisingly, are not allowed when I try to select them in a subsequent round. For example, "latice" with one "t." Rather strange. These are minor annoyances. I hope they can be fixed, but the game is still a solid challenge that's always enticing.

I love this game. I have been playing it for a long time. I always play the one where I can take as long as I want. But, I have two problems. One - when playing on the phone, you don’t have a list of the words you’ve chosen. So you can’t go back and look. I’m sure I’ve written about this before and asked for a second screen to be able to see the words like you can see them on an iPad. I know they won’t fit on the same page but at least give us another page - please!!!!! And my second note is that lately there have been a couple of times when I get done with the game, it doesn’t go back to the end where you see all the words you missed and get your final score and everything. What’s up with that? Otherwise, I am totally happy playing this game. I love it but I am sick of having to make a list in my notes of all the words I get. Please, creators of this game - give us a way to see the words on our phone. Please!!! Thank you!

Super easy to play and great for when you have just a few minutes to kill. However, I find that after playing two or three games in a row the puzzle formation and layout of the letters seems to get predictable, which makes finding new word combinations difficult.

I see a lot of people complaining about ads. A simple solution to this, if you don’t want to pay for the ‘no ad’ option is to just play without being connected to the Internet! No ‘net, no problem!

This is a fun word app, but the ads are incredibly annoying. They pop up after each game and you are often forced to watch videos or see another app play for too long. Many put the X for closing the ad up for a half-second, then replace it with a Facebook or website link that you are then taken to when instead you want to exit the ad. Or they put a teeny x in different places each time so they are difficult to find. Some ads never close so you have to keep tapping to find the invisible x to get back to playing another round of the game. Or you have to quit the game and relaunch.

My favorite game to play. I'll start a game and any idle time I have I'll continue- even if I only have time to find a few more words. I do wish I knew how many words to be found at the outset. I don't find out the total words to be found until I'm done with the game. I realize there's a percentage found but I'd prefer a total number.

The amount of words you list as available to spell out are not accurate. I have found on many many occasions where the words are not available to connect various letters to form the word you are counting. Please get your act together. If I did that I would get a great deal more words each time

Very fun word game. Challenging and intriguing. You need to know how to find words in a maze playing this. Oh yeah, you want a massive vocabulary too🙂. Well put together game. They ads are intrusive but people have to have their app paid for somehow AND you get to skip thru a bulk of them. So, unless you are someone who enjoys making in app purchases to help the developer pay for this free offered game just take the ads in strides. The game is worth the ads.

Update fixed the ad-crashing issue!

Better than Boggle because the letters are bigger, the list of possible words doesnt have "words" that i cant find in a real dictionary and dont have definitions, sorted by length of word, solo play is quick and starts up instantly, the colors that flash after a word is found are intuitive (not a word, already found, new word).

I wish the scoring made more sense, its not explained anywhere and the point values arent compatible with boggle so cannot compare yourself to friends. The letters are connected with very faint lines as they are highlighted, but thats not a gamebreaker. Very responsive interface.

Ads now appear after you end a game instead of randomly, big improvement!!

When I slide my finger over letters to create words I often have to do it numerous times. The first few letters I touch disappear before I finish the word. I have to keep trying to create the word numerous times before it finally is created and my score increases. I have been playing this game awhile. This was not a problem when I started but is now a constant problem which keeps my scores low. Also the same annoying ads show over and over. How many times do you want to show me an ad that I never click on before you get the idea that I am not interested?

Great game. I have been playing for a few months. I really would like to see a “shuffle” view option though. Not where it scrambles the letters, but where it “turns” the board (like in Wordament.) This would be way more fun and I would spend more time with the game trying different angles to see if I catch any more words.
Either way though, great simple layout, nice mixture of simple and challenging words. I love it, just what I look for in a good word game. Thank You developers:)

This is a great game for sharpening your mind and has been used in my recovery from a stroke.

Recently playing has been frustrated by ad panels appearing on my iPad which cover about a third of the screen and interrupt play. These panels are difficult to remove as they usually resist being swiped off screen.

A few months ago I would have awarded 5 stars but the irritating ad panels cause me to lower the rating. If/when this problem is fixed I will return toplay.

I’ve been playing this for years now and frequently get the “top score” which, if the game is even being updated at this point, is just me battling myself for pats on the back. The way WordSeekHD fills my exact needs is absolutely BOGGLE-ing dude. It has a simple interface that’s easy to use and no extra garbage. I’ll play this game until devs somewhere decide not to support it. Until then, thank you to Word Seek for all you’ve done for me. I truly love you and cannot imagine an iPhone without your comforting presence.

I love this game! I have been playing for several years now, but I do not play competitively as for me this is relaxation. Since I have it on my phone it's great for anywhere I have to wait, which seems like a lot of the time. I highly recommend this game. However, lately I've been receiving a message that the game developers need to upgrade as the current version is slowing down other functions.

Also, I keep looking for an option to pay to get rid of commercials...come on now.
