Customer Reviews
Excellent game, very unfortunate bug.
This is a fun game, but no matter how much I shake my phone, the tiles won't scramble. I tested another app that uses shaking (to see if it was just my phone), but that one worked. This game could be really fantastic if only I didn't get "game over" when the only option left is to scramble. I hope they come out with an update soon.
Needs improvement.
I loved this game on my Palm. The iPhone version needs some help. First of all, the music is annoying and jejune. I turned the music way, way down on mine. Second, loads of very common words are missing from the dictionary, e.g., "went." C'mon, guys. Third, the game is not all that challenging. I reached the top rank the very first time I tried. Fourth, the score covers the burning tile so you can't tell what it is. Sheesh. Fifth, the value of each letter is not displayed. This was an option in the Palm version. I might have to try 3 or 4 words with one letter variation to find out which is the highest scoring. Cripes. Please, PopCap, at least improve the dictionary.
Lots of fun, a couple of annoyances
I very much enjoy this game and prefer this app to earlier online versions: gameplay is very smooth and intuitive. However, like an earlier reviewer, I found that the shake-to-scramble feature does not work consistently - eventually, as the score gets higher, it seems to stop working altogether. This can result in a premature and frustrating end to the game. As many others have observed, the dictionary feels rather arbitrary and has some surprising gaps. This app delivers good value, but if these issues were fixed, it could be outstanding.
