Wheel of Fortune: Show Puzzles Reviews

I love the spin until you miss feature and also the open 5 boxes at a time. And I like being able to continue playing until a new level is created. And I love the new 5 spins to get free diamonds with a 25 diamond bonus.
I have been having trouble getting credit for special wheel tournaments. I will complete a challenge, “Defeat Jack 5 times,” but it will give an error message that the game is offline, or something like that, and I have to re-play the challenge again. This has happened at least 5 times in the past few days.
Also, when I’m playing a tournament challenge where I have to “defeat Jack 3 times”, it won’t give me a chance to play against Jack or sometimes any of the characters. I may play 8 -10 games and none of them are against the characters.
Those were earlier comments. I have some new concerns. I love playing this game but I do get frustrated sometimes. I will use my upgrades for better spins and I will only get $350, $500, $750, even though I use the upgrade to the highest level for better spins. So I basically spend 100 or more diamonds to upgrade and still don’t get enough money to earn the prizes! Very frustrating. This happens at least half the time and probably closer to 3/4 of the time.

I’m one of your older players. I love the game. I do not do Facebook nor do I buy diamonds or any other products. Since I’ve been playing you’ve critiqued the game and made many improvements. The diamonds I’ve earned I must use very wisely. If I’m towards the end of a game that’s mostly when I would use them. 250$ is way to much to require to continue a box. I want to Andress the letter streak. You will often give a puzzle with two words about 12 letters then when you miss only one it erases all the letters. I think when you earn a letter you should be able to keep it not have it erased. Now I do believe there are things you could do to make the the player average feel more accomplished and happy. Lower thes products. This is rediculous. 250 diamonds to continue a game. My favorite help is the free hint. I love being able to buy 3 hints for 150 diamonds. I would save for this. Some of your versions have absolutely to many bankrupts. Soon you just get numb to all of this lose turn and bankrupts and you think WELL ILL JUST PLAY AND FORGET ABOUT WINNING. THANK YOU. THIS IS MY REVIEW AND I MISS NOT BEING ABLE TO COMMUNICATE WITH MY FRIENDS LORI AND JOSIAH ALL THE OTHERS. IT ALWAYS HELPS TO FEEL LIKE SOMEONE IS LISTENING. THANKS DONNADONNA

I have been playing this game for a few months and do enjoy the puzzles. There are quite a few issues, though. One it is a pay to play type with 5 tickets to play and it takes 2 1/2 hours to refill. There are a ton of ads, as well. Then, there is the regular freezing and crashing of the game mid puzzle. You will lose your progress for the bonus round prizes and the developer response is blah.

My final gripe is the progression through the levels. It takes forever if you do not spend a ton of cash. I am level 192 as I refuse to spend real money on these games. You can win a decent amount of diamonds in tournaments and this would enable more game play. The catch is almost everyone who wins a tournament is level 460. In the daily tournaments each player is given a different puzzle and you use your own wheel that you have upgraded as you go. So, if you are level 460 and have upgraded your wheel to have $5000 wedges, versus a level 100 player who only has $600 wedges, you have quite the advantage. The Fast Play tournaments are more of a level playing field, but the prizes are much smaller.

All in all this is entertaining, but if you are a long term player the slow progress is frustrating. There should be more opportunities for players to win diamonds in the tournaments, such as level based participation. If the tournaments organized players by how skilled they are, we might stand a chance of winning.

So ever since Covid started I have been playing this game and wheel of fortune and I like it I teach at it I meant I teach it to my kids and they enjoy it and I hope that you do too it’s a very fun way to communicate and to go on different trips quotation quotation marks so yeah it’s fun and I love it and I hope everyone else does and you should read this five stars except that the VIP and you have to log into Facebook to do a background in a backdrop which I don’t like because I mean I have a Facebook account but I don’t want to log into it because they might steal my information but I still love it and it’s good and I hope all of you like it except the VIP which cost a lot of money I’m just kidding it doesn’t my husband thinks it’s him and and ever since COVID-19 started I’ve just been one and wanting to break and to like watch wheel of fortune but my kids hate the show but I love it my husband does and we normally watch it sometimes when I get to go to sleep but like they’re normally not sleep so this is a great way to communicate to see how good you are and yeah I hope all of you guys like it and love it by out

I’ve been playing a few weeks and love the base game...but the special events are horrible. I thought the Lunar New Year one was fun, but the Valentine’s Day and Around the World are so boring that they detract from the whole game play. VDay took way too many collections to win special wedges, and now you’ve “made the game more fun” by making it next to impossible to win the collection items. Also, by making the collection items disappear so quickly, there are times when I have to decide between winning the special event cards and strategically guessing letters based on the amount of the current wedge (which is kind of a big part of the game???). And this is all for the CHANCE of winning something in one or two spins later, which becomes meaningless when you’re only completing a couple of special wedges. If you’re going to stick with making the special events punishing like this, can you at least not have them so frequently? I don’t understand the point of advancing to unlock upgrade cards when there’s basically a short window of a couple of hours between events where I might (maybe, possibly) be able to win them.

And I have to say that this is the first app I’ve ever played where the special events go on forever and stink. I’m not sure what you’re thinking on that.

Finally I saw some changes that were so positive! Legitimate rewards that could actually encourage players, free diamond rewards based on winnings, vanna letters for prizes and vowel bursts. Then all the crap started again. I couldn’t advance on the board because of ridiculous obstacles. It showed I had secured over five other completed tasks, but I couldn’t move on to get them because completing the existing one often made it impossible. The cash o meter suddenly became unreachable and when one did the rewards were miniscule. If a hint is a 100 diamonds, how is a win of 5, 10 or 24, really going to benefit the player? Free letter rewards evaporated, super spin upgrades proved worthless and the overall reward system turned back to its stingy self. Shame on you for people who want to use this game to stimulate thinking and exercise their brain.

As a VIP, I don’t need all the rewards as it relates to bankruptcy, lose a turn, lucky coin, or more time to play yet many of the tournaments use these “rewards” Can’t you do away with this for VIP’s as the prizes are worthless yet make up a majority of the rewards won by these players? Also, if I have earned any of Vanna’s free letters, why is it that when I get a free play, it still takes away a letter from my rewards if I guess incorrectly. How can that be a free spin when it robs me of a letter reward? I think the game needs some serious tweaks.

It is very challenging but sometimes that is kind of good it is very good and also I am very good at it since I had a lot of experience and I am only eight years old I am turning nine next week so don’t be surprised that I have won at least 18 of them and that is counting the bonus rounds and I always win the bonus rounds which to me are the hardest well I don’t want to make this too long I got to go but I just love this game wheel of fortune I get it by the five and you should too WHEEL of
fortune is a great learning experience for kids my age but you should not do people five beyond her name I don’t hand job or just wreck your phone or laptop or any electronics so I was right just for some improvements put right on the game right when to download it only for five and upper because they might break your phone and that’s all you got to know about wheel fortune and just so you know is the best game of time and I had a lot of fun today playing it when I had my brakes and I don’t have many breaks so I am very very very happy for me and myself sincerely “Payton”

This game used to be awesome! Unfortunately now, it’s just got so many problems that don’t seem to be getting better. Instead of me writing a normal review - below is my email to support. I’ll be ecstatic to change my rating and review if it’s treated accordingly.
I downloaded this game awhile back and really enjoyed it. I spent money that I shouldn’t have on diamonds but, I liked the game. Worked really hard getting further on in levels. Then, the problems start. All of which I’ve informed through the contact button on the actual app. This may go to the same place, I don’t know. First, the game started booting me out constantly. Always after I had won. Then, I started getting purchase errors after winning the bonus rounds. This has happened at least 10 times in the last couple days. Now it’s happening just about every single time I play! How are we going to be compensated for this? Honestly, at the very least, I should be getting the boxes that I earned! Or diamonds or something!! Instead I’m being told, “We are aware of the problem. We are working on it. We don’t know when it will be fixed. We can’t decide whether we are going to give compensation or not but thank you”. I really do like this game but it needs to take care of the customers who have spent time and money to get where they are. Thank you!

Short term it’s great fun, as Scopely WOF have dumbed down $ amounts to pass levels. Clubs are great, random theme games fun & individual H2H challenges good. However as you progress it falls apart. 1. Club level 35 is the maximum level. Any Club tokens won are wasted/lost. 2. The game crashes regularly. 3. Head2Head challenges run out of levels so all you play for is to stop relegation.. you get nothing for winning. 4. Themed challenges are biased. Upper levels require 3x or 4x as many games to reach the end as lower levels for exactly the same rewards. 5. Themed challenge games appear around every 5 regular games. You will need to play over 200 regular games for lower levels and over 400 for upper in a short space of time to reach the same goal. 6. An average player will never make the themes. 7. While you fly through levels as $ amounts are easy, collection of souvenirs will take ages on upper levels. 8. For the serious who reach the top level, you will be waiting ages for a new level. 9. Support is pathetic, never doing anything except quoting stock answers of “we’ll pass it on”. 10. The bottom line is they make money off beginners & ignore long term gamers who highlight issues. Newbies will fall by the wayside as the difficulty & frustrations begin. So enjoy it as it is fun, but don’t expect assistance as problems arise.

I really enjoy playing this game and leveling up within the different worlds. The club feature is okay, but of course some members don't participate. I agree with other reviews that say it takes too much time and effort to earn diamonds, yet when you want to trade them in for something, it asks for a ton of diamonds. How can you possibly have diamonds needed to make trades/get upgrades with the numbers they ask for... also, the technical difficulties are never-ending. Here are issues I have had: ending the bonus round and the "continue" button not working then I lose my won game and the money and all rewards because I have to close out (the screen just says loading forever), reaching worlds and not being able to retrieve my lifetime goal rewards (making it to Dublin and now to Chicago), and free diamonds being offered by ad watching and then when you click on it to see the ad and get the free diamonds, it says loading (again forever) and you have to close WheelofFortune . This game is very fun and I enjoy it, but I am SO FRUSTRATED that each time an update happens, something is screwed up in the game - not getting credits for Dublin when it first became available and now with the newest update, users are unable to claim the Chicago passport. 😕

When I first started playing I thought WheelofFortune was going to be great. But then I realized the MANY problems with it. First, you only get five tickets and it takes half an hour to get one. Next, you can only spin and guess one letter at a time which means you can’t earn that much money and isn’t that big of a deal except for in the tournaments which go by the amount of money won. And you don’t win any money on the bonus rounds at all. My other BIG issue is that you level up really quick in the first city but it takes FOREVER to earn the 75 prizes to move to the next city and the whole time you play after you have reached level 10, the money you win goes where? Nowhere! Then I noticed that one of the achievements that would give me 20 diamonds was earning a certain amt of money and after every round that I would have earned it I noticed it would give me the achievement and take it away because I hadn’t earned all the prizes to move to lvl 11 and all the money I was earning was going nowhere! Definitely need to balance that out! And $9.99 a month for no ads and 10 ticket cap. Give me a break!! I hope they fix some of this stuff quick or I will not play anymore.

The graphics are really cool, there’s so much variety in the puzzles and there is a way to play for free by watching ads. The ads are usually relevant or useful so I actually don’t mind them. Maybe add an option to select advertising categories we prefer? The only negative would be that, sometimes, the puzzles do not always make sense. Some have weird adjectives or aren’t obvious phrases, so this would be difficult for those from a multicultural background. However, I LOVE the fact that, at the end of each puzzle, you can like or dislike a puzzle to provide feedback. I also don’t quite understand how all the features of the game work together (special letters, spin upgrades, tokens, collectibles, etc.) so it would help if there was a tutorial guide. For that reason, I have only been playing using the basic gameplay features. Lastly, there’s no obvious Quit Game option to leave WheelofFortune . It’s quite a process to tap and hold the bottom of WheelofFortune and try to get out of WheelofFortune if I need to. Overall, the game is is quite fun and appealing.

What can I say, but that, I love playing Wheel of Fortune! It’s been an ideal way for me to relax, after a busy day. The variety in game choices and challenges hold my interest. The perks and points allow me to continue playing this wonderful game. I also like the new challenges that come frequently, which increase my knowledge in areas I otherwise would not have. The tech support I have experienced, further increases my desire to play this game. The support have been patient, customer focused, and above all, committed to resolving my problem. ...... which is an additional reason to give a rating of 5 stars. Keep the new games and perks coming! I really am excited about playing the new games. I love the added variety and the creative rewards from winning. You have a smart and talented team, who always deliver. Keep up the good work , as well as the improvements you make to the game! Wheel of Fortune still continues to be my favorite game to play.

This game is very disappointing (if you’re a fan of the tv show, anyway). It’s clear whoever designed this game is NOT a fan, and is not familiar with its basic rules that make it so much fun to watch. The worst part is that you only get to guess one consonant and one vowel per turn - whether you guess right or not doesn’t matter. If you can’t solve, your only option is to pass! Second, the money you win has no consequence in the game. You have to get diamonds to spend on things, and those are not given as prizes for solving the puzzles. As far as I can tell, you can’t use the money you win for ANYTHING! There are no toss ups, and you don’t spin a wheel in the bonus round, the amount you win is predetermined! Everything else in the game has nothing to do with how the game is played on tv. It is a confusing mess of jammed together graphics representing tournaments and other things that are nearly impossible to figure out, from bizarre “letter box” prizes from Vanna - Huh? - to souvenirs that move you through different cities. Lots of ads and a store make you feel like this is more of an attempt at a money grab than to create a fun game. The last version was SOOO much better and really took you into the game and made you feel like you were an actual contestant.

This game used to be a lot of fun. I paid to get rid of ads back when I first started playing, but that was the most I was willing to spend. After quite some time of playing, I eventually moved on to other games. When I came back, they had set up this subscription service and made it more difficult to be competitive without paying for that service, which I would not do. But, I could still enjoy it. The latest major change has made it nearly impossible to gain large enough amounts of the in-game currency, diamonds, to continue playing without significant frustrations. Basically, they've taken a game that was fun, with a steep price for getting rid of ads, but doable, to one where you just about have to both spend money on a monthly subscription and purchase diamonds aside from that, in order to be competitive. My attempts to work with customer service on a couple of recent issues were never dealt with satisfactorily, and they continue to insist that the changes which keep players from being able to earn diamonds as easily in the game are somehow positive changes for the players. No way. So unless you're willing to spend a small fortune to play this game, which I am not, then don't waste your time.

This game never gets boring. It is the perfect amount of challenging and really fun! You level up and advance, and get gems and coins and cool power ups. What more could you ask for in a game? It’s not glitchy at all, and there are mild ads. Although you have to be good at spelling, and some are too hard for me (9), it’s a really fun game ESPECIALLY if you want a challenge. People are very nice, rounds are very quick & easy, and there are so many puzzles to solve! I still haven’t solved them all and I probably never will 😂. I know no boundaries in this game. The sky’s the limit! It is sooo fun. Please continue to update this game. You will never lose my business. By the way, if you’re wondering about ads again, since I haven’t really talked about them, they are perfectly child-appropriate and not long! They are super fun ads and you can exit out of them if you don’t want to watch them (unless they’re for a reward). I can’t express my love for this game!

This game should be called wheel of advertisement. Not only does the game require you to pay real money to play more than 20 minutes at a time since that’s how long it takes to get thru the 5 tickets you receive. The game also has an ungodly amount of advertisement. I guess having micro transactions isn’t enough. Ads run after every game you play so about every 3-4 minutes it takes to finish the game.
But wait for it there’s more! If you play head to head games which is games against another player solving the same puzzle, those games have to wait until the other player has a chance to play the puzzle. But once that is done it doesn’t automatically give you the results, instead you press a button to reveal score once score is revealed guess what you get? That’s right more ads. After each score reveal you get a nice advertisement. So if you have to reveal 10 scores from previously played games that’s 10 ads you have to watch in a period of under 10min. Spent more time watching ads than playing the game.

Oh yeah and the game is not really like the TV game you can only spin once and ask for 1 consonant and 1 vowel before you either have to solve or pass no spinning again.

I do enjoy this game and play it a lot but I have two pet peeves: it often uses very short puzzles with lots of vowels for the regular puzzles and longer puzzles with lots of consonants for the bonus rounds. An even bigger pet peeve concerns the special event tournaments: again the use of short puzzles which don't allow for many letter guesses or earning many game dollars especially since the other "players" are bots but you are competing against real people for the tournament prizes (I have no idea if they are solving the same puzzles, but judging by their score amounts, I don't see how they could be). One final pet peeve with the tournaments: the bonus round prizes are not game dollars, but letters which are put together to form words and "buy" special features (like 3 days of no "bankrupt"). The most common letters are the vowels (I have more than 200 "U"s currently). You usually have to use 25-50 game gems to buy a round in a tournament and then they award you a vowel for winning a bonus round-BOGUS!! It seems a fitting prize for a purchased tournament bonus round would be a rare letter.

There have been changes over the 2 or so years since I’ve played and I have spent some $$ to play because I enjoy it. However, in the past 6 months or so, they have adopted a model of quality control/testing using their PAYING customers as their test base. For example, they advertised an update for their new World League. I downloaded it, nothing was different. My club friends were enjoying the new stuff. I contacted support and they indicated it was in testing and to be patient. It was 2 MONTHS before it showed up for me. Now there is a new update that advertises something called Tournament Boost. I downloaded it... nothing different. However there are things happening in play that indicate buggy situations and, even if features are being rolled out in a limited fashion for “testing”, the bugs are affecting all of us! It is bad business to use PAYING customers for testing/QC without them knowing they are doing so. Those customers are usually called beta testers and know full-well they are beta testers and are doing so willingly. This is bad business and bad software practice.

Wheel Fortune use to be a lot of fun. They do add some fun features or games within the games, such as Millionaire Mile, tournaments and other fun games and as you move up in levels you can earn different prizes. However, as you progress they take away your ability to earn free bankruptcies or lose a turns or 30 mins of free vowels and letters. And you conveniently land on a bankruptcy when your Cash O Meter is full. They also, took away your ability to win/earn Lucky Coin Flip. They have changed it to earning only diamonds on the extra games, that is great but it was nice when you could earn other things too. When you do land on a prize letter on the wheel, you very rarely get a letter that would spell a word you need in Vanna’s Show Case to receive such things as free bankruptcies, lose a turn, coin flips etc. I feel this is so you buy these things. It’s very frustrating when you work very hard to get to that highest level and then they take things away. I use to rate this game a 5 but now I rate it at a 2. I hope things change so I will be able to rate this game a 5 again.

It took forever to find a game that I enjoy playing that isnt loaded with ads every time I change screens...only this is better. I just downloaded this game yesterday and have been binge playing ever since...and in all that time I have seen only 1 ad...and it lasted 5 seconds...and I have spent absolutely no money to remove ads or anything. I am so thankful for a game that allows me to play it instead of hitting that little “x” in the corner of an ad all the time. Best of all...the game is a blast...not confusing with a hundred different areas to go to to level up or figure out how the game is played...very easy to understand and even when you are waiting for tickets to refill you seem to be able to play countless games of head to head once you have reached that level of play (doesnt take long...I reached it after a couple hours of wins). I highly recommend WheelofFortune for anyone who likes Wheel of Fortune or related word games.

Been hooked on this game for over a week. Def think it’s good to pass time and I like how much it makes me think.

I did experience some glitches. For one, a few days for a period of time I wasn’t allowed to start a game. Every time I tried, it would bring me to the next screen where the wheel turns as it selects an opponent, the wheel would spin, and then the screen would close and bring me back to the apps “home screen.” Never started me on a new game. Also, experienced a similar thing with a freeze and then screen switch, but after winning a bonus round. It was right before the part where the screen would award you your winnings/progress...and the screen spazzed out and set me to the home screen, nothing reflected the win I just had. It was like the game never happened.

As for the ads, not bad for...ads. Who likes them, period? The part that really annoys is the ad placed in the header of the screen when you’re not currently in a game. It’s really, really annoying.

Maybe I'm the only one who cares, I don't know. But I have 2 kids and my oldest LOVES challenging games. She is only 10. There is NO AGE RATING on this game. I grew up watching this show. For heavens sakes people, can't we keep it clean?? I walk in to tell her it's bedtime and her "time" ran out. The word SEX SYMBOL flashed up!! That's the word she was supposed to be figuring out!! I don't give a crap if it's crashing, if you only get 5 tickets, or it takes a decade to load. I can't watch her every second of her life and whoever made this bloody game should be more aware that kids are on here and let parents know what age appropriate they made the game. Oh, and I'm totally impressed how it's tacked on the very bottom of the description how much we get sucked into paying if we don't cancel the game. Only after how exciting it is, and how little we pay for this or that! No, I was not the responsible party to accept this game but man, people just keep getting more greedy and sneaky as time goes on. So if I could rate this game it would be ZERO. FOR HOW DISAPPOINTING THIS GAME TURNED OUT TO BE. No true info on it, an apparently most people just can't have fun unless some form of inappropriate words,actions or pictures are involved.

Great APP! I play the Wheel Of Fortune several times a day. Easy to use. Runs smoothly, no freeze outs or slow processing of choices or continuing rounds. Advertisements, but only after a few rounds and very quick. Less than 60 seconds. Which is awesome for WheelofFortune designers to promote their supporters, but definitely is fast and does not cause frustration sitting through long ads. Hardly even notice.
Lot's and Lot's of fun! The entire family or friends can play along with you. WheelofFortune auto selects random opponents to play against you. I am sure you could select your own if desired.
I highly recommend. Not only is it a lot of fun, but it is a great brain teaser to wake up your brain😜. Give it a try! I have played this game for months and never had to reach in my pockets in order to continue. No limits or restrictions apply for playing for free! That is a big deal and definitely refreshing. A++++++

I was looking for a great wheel of fortune game to play, I found this, I thought, eh I’ll try it out. I actually really liked it at first.

But then the problems starting toppling. I realized I can only play with 5 tickets? Really? And it takes over an hour for a refill. Why can’t I just play until I feel like I’m done? Another thing, this was after i passed San Francisco, I started noticing anytime an ad appeared and I actually wanna try it it freezes and I can’t see what I’ve won! You can’t play this game on the go if you’re in a car because it doesn’t allow you to play over airplane mode or 1x or 3G areas.

Then I’m realizing I can’t use that money I get in the game for ANYTHING! I can’t buy diamonds, buy gifts, nothing. It’s only there to beat the levels. And even the game itself is terrible. Why can’t players just play until they get a letter wrong like the real game? You win no extra money in the bonus round either. I’m sorry but I’m deleting this waste of space and will go back to my better wheel of fortune game I have. Complete garbage. I try to use the wheel club and it doesn’t even show me how to use it!

This game is good BUT If you want wheel of Fortune, be prepared to get mad( or somewhat mad) When you get the question right, and you do the bonus round and you keep winning the games and get to the bonus rounds then you win gift boxes and you get a gift. Here's the problem with that: if you do that a lot then you keep getting boxes BUT😡😡when you get let's say 3 boxes and the next time you win a game and go to the bonus round you don't win the bonus round and guess what happens YOU HAVE TO START ALL THE WAY OVER AND TRY TO WIN AND GET TO THE BONUS ROUND TO GET THOSE BOXES AGAIN. That's the only thing that gets on my nerves. Overall WheelofFortune is good. I'm not saying that this is a bad app I'm just saying that it's a app that requires a lot of thinking. Now I'm not a genius ( because I'm only 11) but if you dont want to be annoyed by that then don't get it. The other problem is that in order to change your profile picture you have to have Facebook and younger kids like me want to play wheel of Fortune to and some younger kids don't have Facebook like me.
