GAME DOES NOT ACCEPT MANY ENGLISH WORDS
GAME DOES NOT ACCEPT MANY ENGLISH WORDS
Glitches
App is fun but has too many glitches that won’t allow me to finish a 3 round challenge too frequently. It gets stuck on “resume” for eternity sometimes after completing a round, and I end up having to forfeit the game or else it will continuously show it’s my turn. Reached out to support too, but got no response. Also, can’t find any information on the power ups - how to use them or how to get them.
Used to be my favorite game
Boggle keeps speeding up their AI so it's impossible to win. I loved playing "the experts." Oftentimes I can no longer beat the "easy" expert now. They never undo their bad decisions.
Things
You should have longer time limits and make sure that you do not give people levels they already did.
Won’t Load FIXED
After I reported a bug they fixed it in a matter of days. Kudos!
Won’t stop messaging me
I even deleted the app. There is no unenrolling or unsubscribing. I get a message more than once an hour. It’s a game to place with my wife sometimes not to force me to play every hour on the hour. Love the game but hate the execution.
Lots of repeats
It’s fun, but the boards repeat frequently - to the point that I all but have some memorized!
Doesn’t Worl
I played many words but the screen only showed the last letter played. I gor zero words when I actially should have gotten about 40. I tried again and same thing. I am deleting this. Apple arcade is pretty much worthlesd.
Too many repeat levels
This game would be a lot better if there weren’t so many repeat levels and if there were more people to play head-to-head.
Awesome
Fun activity’s
Flaws and fake words
Developer gives fake impersonal responses. The same when reporting issues. Update: The app has a bug where a level ends before the board is even rendered. When this happens, the app thinks you lost without finding even one word (obviously). What happens if you lose, the game gets condescending and gives you a much easier level. And what do they offer when I report the glitch. “Please record your screen in a video.” Uhhh! Why would I buy screen recording software and record 2 hours hoping to catch the glitch that the developer clearly could care less about.. So, “repost” is not a word but “teargases” is a word. Yes, spelled just like that. 🧐 Look it up. Playing against the app when the app cheats is frustrating to say the least. If I get a bad word grid, as in not enough “real” words for me to meet the score goal, it offers me to “try again”. At that point I think I would get the same goal with different letters, but no, I get a lower goal as if I can’t reach the goal. The other issue here is it thinks in terms of cheat words. Another issue is the 9 two letter words goal. It’s mostly the same words every time. Many of these words are also not words. This goal becomes nothing but an annoyance. Playing the built opponent is also unfair. The game counts all these fake words against me, so then I lose too often. This is not Boggle by any means.
Fun game - No longer working
The game is fun, although I wish there was a bit more variety in boards. Have not been able to play recently as the game will not load. Impossible to access the app as suggested to another player - the screen is blank, no menu items are visible. Please fix.
Please fix bugs
I love the game but stop playing when the famous multiplayer never-ending game bug arises. It means I cannot finish a game because it is perpetually my turn, even when I’ve taken my turn. Please please please fix this long standing bug!
👍👍👍😍😍😍
Ok
Obsessed

Super repetitive
For a nearly infinite number of board possibilities the idea we get the same board over & over & over & over again is ridiculous
It won’t work
I loved this game. Just recently it stopped working and won’t bring up the screen where you actually play. It loads, and the screen is blank. Not sure what’s happening. I removed it and then reinstalled it, and it still doesn’t work
Fix the bugs
The best part of this game is playing against friends, and the game heavily encourages multiplayer. Unfortunately, multiplayer is unreliable. Frequently I’ll challenge a friend (or they’ll challenge me), but the game never appears in the other person’s app. One of us ends up waiting days for a turn that never shows up. On one phone it says “waiting for your turn,” while on the other there are no open games at all. This happens most often in Classic mode. Great game when it works, but the multiplayer sync issues seriously hurt the experience. There is also an issue of when the daily challenges reset. For some reason they reset in the middle of the day rather than at night. You are supposed to do the challenge 5 days in a row for a prize but if you do the challenge in the morning on Monday, then the game resets around noon, then it resets at noon again on Tuesday and you do it in the evening on Tuesday, you don’t get the prize because you missed a day. Another issue is the word filtering. The game appears to intentionally block certain non-profane dictionary words while allowing explicit profanity. For example, some words are treated as invalid as if they don’t exist, while words like the f-word and the S-word are accepted. The filtering feels arbitrary and inconsistent. Seems like they are censoring what sensitive people would call “trigger words” and I’m not referring to racial slurs.
Stuck on round not finished state
In Multiplayer, second round, at the end of the round, the state remains "yet to play." When I click on the round, it starts with the clock run down to 0:00, ends, shows me the score, and when I then click Next, I am returned to the Round Summary with the round status still displayed as "yet to play." Endless loop. I suppose there is a round-complete boolean state variable that is toggled implicitly and it got toggled twice, when instead it should be explicitly set to finished.
Boggle
I love the skill builders!
Buggy and frustrating
The multiplayer mode is glitchy and consistently full of issues. It’s frustrating and makes the game worthless.
Boring 1 point away
All most 5
It's okay but...
The game is totally fine as a Boggle emulator. It can only reach a certain level of fun and you can only do so much with it. I get that part. I woulda given it 4 stars if not for one glaring issue. If an opponent doesn't play their next or final round, the game declares A TOTALLY RANDOM WINNER. Seriously... it's random. I tried it myself. I was in an obvious beating and it declared me the winner. I was losing by a ridiculous margin. Seriously, I was getting crushed and all I did was not play my last round. Using the highest point total doesn't work either cuz I've seen people score 1000+ points in one round. If your opponent doesn't play their round, then the game should be a draw or it shouldn't count at all. A winner should definitely not be declared and people who don't complete games should suffer some sort of penalty. Game is good but the main win mechanic - determining a winner - is super broken.
2 Letter Words
Game is lots of fun but get rid of the 2 letter words.
Great Word Game
Important to keep mind busy and see how many words you can create.
Real words?
So many of these words are not standard English or even slang that I can find. It’s still very playable. But I have no idea what dictionary, if any, it’s used to vet the vocabulary in this game.
Addicting, But Issues After A While
I genuinely am so addicted to this word game, however there are issues that arise after a while. I have been given the same exact board with the same exact challenge over a dozen times with no stopping. Puzzles might be glitching a bit here. Also there a many words that are in the dictionary that are not able to be used here. This is definitely an issue.
Doesn’t even use boggle rules - shouldn’t be called Boggle
The game is basically ruined by the inclusion of 2 letter words (most of which seem to be ridiculous 2 letter combinations) which makes most of the time limit about guessing silly 2 letter combinations for a point each time, rather than looking for genuine words of three or more letters, like in the real Boggle. Also, the game could be improved massively by including a summery of the word’s meanings after the game. Lots of the time I am writing words that I have no clue what are, and so it would make the game more engaging if it told me afterwards so we can learn from our discoveries.
Good but very buggy
I love this game but it's so buggy. If you like Boggle or similar word games, you'll likely love this. But if you multiplayer, you're eventually going to run into huge issues that really degrade the quality of the game. Sometimes rounds get stuck mid-round so the other person can't resign or move forward. Other times, a stale round will turn into a different game mode. For instance if you start in “Power” mode and play your turn, then the other person doesn’t respond, and click the round again, it’ll lose progress on the previous game and start a new round in “Classic” mode. All of this means I have ten games in my queue that I can’t win or lose, they just hang in my inbox. It makes for a frustrating user experience on a game I’m otherwise super addicted to.
Boggled
Fantastic game. Has every letter of the alphabet. All 27. Love it thus far!
Censored
Words have started being censored in a very authoritarian Orwellian manner.
Fun but could use more challenges
I love Boggle but do wish this version had more solo challenges. It's very repetitive, as in, the Adventure mode uses the same grids over & over. It's most obvious in the levels that are "x letters only". If you fail a level, it automatically makes it much easier on the next try which isn't fun for advanced players. I wish there was a Hard mode to make it more challenging.
No challenge
It repeats letter combos. Boggle doesn't allow 2 letter words but this app prioritizes them. The challenges are regenerated instead of allowing for repeated tries.
Repetitive
Fun but there are a few issues: The game gets repetitive very quickly. There are “hints” that reveal a word after like 30 seconds of inactivity, and you can’t turn them off. This ruins the game.
Terrific Game
Just absolutely love this game. The timed challenges do indeed challenge!
Cant turn off hints
Impossible to turn off automatic hints that appear after a few seconds of being idle. What is the point if it gives you all the answers?
Unexpected but entertaining
There are a lot of game modes but ultimately, it does make a good Boggle game. It would be nice if the tutorial was skippable though
Mind boggled
Let me start by saying that I’m very self aware. I know my body really well.. this may sound crazy but I slept peacefully every night UNTIL I DOWNLOADED THIS GAME. I played before bed two nights in a row and my brain would not STOP THINKING! I tossed and turned all night! Could not sleep because my brain kept thinking all night long. Had to delete the app. I only downloaded it again to leave a review. What’s in this stuff? Boggled my mind for sure!
Coins are for what now?
Why the credit coin awards if there is nowhere to redeem in game? Coins are for what?
Addictive
I’m not gonna lie I’m really addicted to this game 🤣🤣
Grids not random
If you play this for any length of time you encounter the same grids over and over
Fun game
Very fun game to play but there is one bug that is annoying. If you close the app while playing a game and then go back to finish, it’ll allow you to finish but the game then that game gets stuck in resume mode and you can never actually finish it and the game ends after 5 days with you losing. Other than that, fun, addictive, and great to play.
Punctuation issue.
I haven’t even finished the tutorial bit and there’s been a punctuation error. TIMES UP Where’s the apostrophe? Very poor.
Too much repetition
I’ve played a couple of weeks and have seen several grids more than once. This should not happen.
Vowel teams
It is so much fun to look for vowel teams to quickly make words.
Just stopped working.
I started playing this game a few weeks ago but for the past two days it just won’t open and keeps crashing. Checked the online help and it just says to uninstall and reinstall the app, which deletes all the data so all my progress will be lost. Why not just fix the bugs so it works?
Not all words recognized
Wont accept "chaos"
Level and letter set repetition
I really enjoyed this game to start off with, until I realised that the letter sets and levels keep repeating over and over again. Within 10 levels, I had the same letter set three times. This is making the game very boring and not much of a challenge. It is even more disappointing when you think about how many variations are possible with 16 letters. Developers, please sort this out because it is completely ruining the game.
For a short period it worked
All Apple Arcade games just stopped working without cause
