Word Trek Reviews

I’ve played this game for years but haven’t been able to play for months because whenever I open WordTrek , it just goes to a black screen. I’ve been trying not to delete it because I enjoy it but it never wants to work. I’m currently using an iPhone 12 Pro Max and have the most recent iOS update. Please fix WordTrek so I can start playing again!

Update: still can’t play this game. So disappointing. Wish the developers would fix it.

I like the game but it started showing ads for other games. Most ads are automatically muted but these ads don't have a mute button at all so I have to turn the phone sound down and then remember to turn it up. I hate that!

Most other ads let you say the ad bothers you so you can skip it. I can't do it with these ads and the games its showing in the ads are awful! One has a spider and I am arachnophobic. One shows a fish getting burned in lava. The worst is a woman who gets attacked by a burglar if you mess up the controls. Just awful. If this complaint gets through to then I'll keep the game and change my review otherwise I'll just uninstall. Too disturbing!

I love a good, challenging word game! It took the first few puzzles to realize that this game had potential to remain on my device. I liked the challenge of figuring out the mystery words based on nothing. It didn't bother me a whole lot that the 3 answers needed to solve the puzzles usually had nothing in common, so I kept playing, wholeheartedly, to where I remain now...GOAT level number 1. I've been stuck at this level for weeks now, with no response from the game help desk, as to how to bypass this level. The FAQ's section claims that ALL of the puzzles are solvable. I appreciate that they think that and aspire tobhave that be true, but someone dropped the ball on this puzzle check.

Goat level 1 IS in fact unsolvable!!!!. I have all three word answers and in no order of entry is the puzzle SOLVABLE!!!

I probably would have rated WordTrek higher had the customer support team responded to my call for help. Now I just grow more annoyed with the creators and the game everyday that passes without help. I'll probably just delete WordTrek soon if it doesn't get fixed:-/.

I love this game but have a couple problems with it. I’ve had to delete it & reinstall it three times over the last couple of years (losing my ranking where I was & had to start over) because it just stops working & wont open up when you click on it. Lately the ads you have to watch to get the free points are either having you watch full add & then not get any points. Or for free spins you click on your free spin & it says nothing available to watch. I get this message often from free spins that I get daily to the points you get for watching videos during the day. Glitch is happening again over the last few days where I click on WordTrek to open it & it closes.

I really thought I lived this game. Unfortunately, it has poor set up. Seems to come from a third world country. There’s no help as far as how to navigate very well. When I get gifts Nd requests from FB friends, it won’t give them to me or send. Often times it says unable to send right now. My progress is always lost even though I am logged in all the time. It’s like the makers think it’s costing them money even thought I have shared on FB. I have spent money on games but sure won’t on this one. It is poorly made. If all this was fixed, it would be superb as it is challenging. I loved the sam’s fall stall part or whatever it was called. But that seemed to be a limited time.

This game can be addictive and fun. It's a word scramble with a twist. As you try words that exist your word meter fills and you get a hint when it is full. This is motivation to keep filling the word meter and it's especially handy on difficult puzzles. The catch is you have to watch a 30 second advertisement for the word meter to unlock it once it has filled. This is annoying but an understandable way to keep WordTrek free.
In the latest version you can only unlock and use the word meter once a day. It now won't allow you to watch another ad and refill the word meter, which does not make sense from the side of the consumer or the advertiser. The game is not as fun without guessing words to fill the meter. And now the advertiser's products are shown much less.
To me this makes the game playable for about 10-15 minutes a day. Because of this I can no longer recommend this game as it is more frustrating than fun. I hope the creators of this game rethink this issue and make the game fun again. As it is now I don't see how this benefits anyone having to do with this game.

I love this game and I’m close to beating it, but for the past few months it keeps glitching out and i have to uninstall and reinstall and I lose progress in the level I’m working I’m.

It just freezes up and won’t load the letters, or it won’t open the bonus puzzle. Or just won’t open at all. SO annoying. I’ve probably had to do this 6 times in just the past month.
If the glitch is fixed, I’ll change to 5 stars.

I absolutely love this game and have been playing for around 10-11 years, however, in the last several years it hasn’t been supported at all. When the game runs into a problem, there is NO ONE there to help out and also completely shuts down when I hit about 3,000 points and just won’t do anything and I have to reboot LOSING ALL MY POINTS 🤬🤬🤬

I'm not normally a game type person, but I've been playing this every day for about 5 years. It's the modern equivalent to the daily crossword puzzle my father did. I played to completion of highest level once. WordTrek crashes after a few months. Only fix is to delete app, load it again and start from scratch. Then play the beginner puzzles, and after a while it will prompt “log in with Apple ID” and you go to where you were yesterday.

Note: daily puzzles ended with 2024, and now it crashes and requires delete/reinstall/start over often. Consider it dead/abandonned.

This used to be my go to game, but it seems like the more levels I complete the slower the game gets; now it takes forever for the board to load, then a couple minutes before I’m able to start highlighting letters. This game has such a lag that it’s become painful to play, but I really enjoy it. I believe I’m on level 30 or 31, I’m writing this review just to kill time for the game to load. My other game apps do not have this issue, just this one. I keep hoping one day I’ll open WordTrek and it’s back to normal, but this has been months now.

Have been obsessed with this game for several months. A great way to pass the time. However, I constantly have issues where playing the game shuts off the sound from other apps, so you can’t listen to podcasts or music at the same time.

I like this game, but it has locked up on me twice. The first time I deleted and reinstalled it, but I lost all the accumulated data and had to start from the beginning again. Now I am down to 5.1% or thereabouts and don’t want to replay all the levels if I reinstall it. I will just let this sit here for awhile, because there appears to be nowhere to address the issue for resolution.

I like the challenge of the game — I’m up to level 30 — but what happened to the key? It used to be that for each novel word you guessed (incorrectly), the horizontal line would move and when it got to the end, you’d get a free hint. The game even still says that the key unlocks hints. But where is the key? How do you get the key? It is not explained in How To Play, and the horizontal line no longer moves. Why this change? Why this tease?Also, you can watch video after video before you get the promised free spin. What’s up with that? Where’s the transparency?

I’ve finished this game two times. I loved it so much!! But it’s changed!!! When it says the letters are in wrong order, it takes all the words down, instead if that word. And it doesn’t tell you if the first word was done right until you’ve done another. If you play this game you’ll understand what I’m talking about!! I hope it gets better because it’s such a great challenging game!!
FIX DOG #1 !!!!! I ve requested that you fix this game, two weeks ago!! I want to play but it’s NOT PLAYABLE!!!

Been playing this game for over 2 years because I only play during my lunch period. I am in the New World on the Ponder level where only 7% of players have solved the puzzles. I have yet to come across duplicate words. The words have something in common with each other and it makes you think. I will play this game until I solve every LAST puzzle. At times, I want to quit or throw my phone but I persevere!! ❤️❤️

Help please! After my last update on August 4, my game won’t even open. It just goes black after about 10 seconds. Nothing changes ever since then, so I can’t open it to ask for help. Two weeks later and still not working. Just turns off after trying, takes about 2 seconds or less to just turn off. What’s up with that?

I’ve been playing this game for years. I love to challenge my mind. Recently I couldn’t get WordTrek to play. I would try to open it and I get the yellow background and red W and then a smaller version of the red W and the whole thing disappeared. I tried numerous times and it continued to disappear from my screen. Do I deked it and downloaded Word Trek again. It started from the beginning. I notified the creators of my problems. Got nothing fixed. I wrote them 5 times now and have been waiting patiently. Still nothing. I was on the Aphoria world. This was my favorite game. And it keeps my brain working. I’m 73 now and need my game back. I don’t know what else to do. Love the game but sad I can’t continue.

This game is quite addictive and challenging. Sometimes I need to leave the game just to clear my head, but when I go back, the correct word is right there. Getting the right words in the correct order so you can fill in the other words can be difficult. Ultimately, this game makes me think and use brain cells I didn’t know were there anymore. Excellent

To me this game is fun and challenging you just have to think hard enough to find the words . You don’t really need hints because the hints just make you think you need them but you really don’t. Like I have already saved a least over 1000 hints . And plus it is supposed to be hard it is a brain game to help train your brain.

This is a word scramble game with tiles on each frame in which you need to find the words that fit in the tiles below on the screen. You are given the amount of tiles for each word and all words are related for each given puzzle screen. The screens increase in tiles with greater difficulty. You also have a word-o-meter below the puzzle tiles that fills up as you try to find the words. Every time the meter fills you get a free hint. You also earn coins and gets spins to earn coins with which you can buy hints. You can also watch videos to earn coins. The word-o-meter used to be refillable by watching a video each time needed, but now is limited to 1 a day. You can buy the word-o-meter for 15 coins. I have found this to be much more helpful on difficult puzzles instead of directly buying letter hints. I also keep my free spins to earn coins. I do the word of the day puzzles to earn extra coins. When I am stuck and have no help, which is rare, I go away and come back later. Sometimes all you need is a fresh look. I enjoy this immensely as it keeps my mind active. But above all, I find it fun! I have contacted the game for fixes and they come through! Download and enjoy!
