Pros and cons of WordStorm app for iPhone and iPad
WordStorm app good for
I love this. I always enjoy word games, even though Im not as good at them as I should be. This author makes great games, Im a big fan of Topple too, for which Im waiting for an update:)
Thanks for these enjoyable pastimes.
I find these types of games addictive. It keeps my old brain active, lol! The only frustration is that often I make a word and it wont accept it. It acknowledges that youve made a valid word but its
not part of the list. Other than that I actually find it more challenging than text twist2.

Excellent game, but 2 issues...
❗️often rejects words that work, but arent part of the solution. It should be possible to program multiple alternative words as answers.
‼️ the words you solve are displayed in an unsightly upper case font that looks unworthy of such a great game
I have played this game daily for years and enjoy it greatly. An update is clearly needed, as the puzzles started repeating at the end of December 2015. The puzzles are not unique anymore and this is disappointing. I would love to see a dictionary feature, as well as a more accurate word list (e.g., accepting more words that are common or at least not terribly obscure). This game is a lovely part of my day.
Some bad moments
The dictionary does not include many common words (ones that are in any standard US dictionary) and some words you choose get you a message saying "that is a valid word but not in our word list" ?!?! So frustrating.... Deleting the app - many other good word puzzle apps without these issues.
I love this game on my iPad! I play it constantly. Im learning new big words although I can never use them since I dont actually know the definitions! The only thing I would change if possible is I wish you could still see the clock while youre playing. (the actual time of day, not how long youve been playing)
And for people complaining about basic words not being in there, it has to be a real world, not slank or abbreviated word. For example, bike may not be in there but Im sure bicycle is.
I have played this game every day for a couple weeks. Have never had it crash. No problems with it. Love the game! So addictive!
Unique idea makes for a challenging word game.
Note to others complaining about missing words is that the instructions say you are looking for the 35 MOST COMMON words from the given letters.
I do have to echo another reviewers disappointment that a 100% score doesnt show on the high score list!
Our whole family...ages 9 through 79...played this over Thanksgiving and we were all addicted. This is my favorite iPad game right now. I love word games and this one is simple to play but challenging enough to keep you hooked. Highly recommended.
I like the whole concept of this game, but what dictionary is being used to decide which words are acceptable????
