Description
An international favorite! Lingo is back on the Game Show Network, and you can be the next contestant in the mobile game. Fans of the GSN game show can now play on-the-go. Whiz through word ladders and show spelling skills that would make a dictionary jealous! Take the top seat on the leaderboard and win prizes from GSN.
How to Play:
Fun and fast! Spell as many five-letter words as you can in the three-minute Main Round. While you’re at it, rack up bonus points that help you in the Lingo Round. It’s simple: you’re given the first letter, then you type like wild to solve the word. You’ll see hints pop-up – green squares tell you that you’ve got the right letter in the right position, and yellow circles mean you’ve got the right letter, but the wrong position. If you can’t solve a word, just pass on it and keep moving! See just how good your vocabulary is in the Main Round. Then, in the Lingo Round, you’ll get more chances to win bonus points based on the number of words you got correct in the Main Round. Yellow Lingo balls are wild, but be careful—watch out for the red ball. You can win up to 5,000 bonus points!

Needs improvement
I love this gameshow. The app game is just ok. Keyboard is very small and I often hit the wrong key than I mean to. Also, it will never let me log in. I just keep getting error messages. I've even tried registering a new username.
Idk...it's worth 99¢, if you love word games, but it really needs upgrading.
Bad version of the game
The tv game is great and I've been waiting for it to come out as an app. The app is poorly designed and there is only one way to play the game. The keyboard is poorly designed and constantly puts in the wrong letter which reduces the available time to solve words in 3 minutes. I should have listened to the review and not purchased the app. I would give it 0 stars if possible.
Disappointed
The keyboard doesn't work properly. The letters pushed are not the letters that show up and it types very slowly. Would be easier to type in landscape mode.
