I downloaded this after completing a playable ad and I'm glad I did. I believe the game caters to your skill level and while some clues are simple, I've myself stuck on some but only for a minute or so. If I'm still stuck I use one of the hints, which so far, are free, and you get more every day. You do have to watch an ad after you complete a set, but you can skip it after 5 - 10 seconds, not a minute for something you might not download. I hope I continue to enjoy it in the next few days.

I have been playing for a few years. I have been getting an ad that freezes after going to the Google Play, which it forces it to go to. I have to close out of the app and I miss out on the additional item for the 6 hour path. Where you watch a video and you get the extra one. Add if you have taken 2 turns. Not a huge deal. I cannot inform in app since the email us is no longer there. I asked AI for the email. I sent the screen shot there. The ad is for Word Chain and it freezes on other apps 2.

I've played for 6+ years. recently the difficulty level keeps fluctuating whether you change it or not. I thought they fixed it but now it's back. So aggravating when too many obscured clues/answers are un the puzzle. i.e., authors of books you've never heard of. A few of these type in each group is fine because you can usually figure it or get enough letters to guess. but when most of the group is like that, it is not fun to play.
