I really like this game - the app works well, the ads are minimal and the gameplay is quite enjoyable. The only thing I don't like about it is the notifications. It sends push notifications when someone plays, which I want, but it also sends them when I earn coins due to time passing, which I *don't* want. There is no way to distinguish the two and no way to have it send *only* the play notifications. Should be an easy fix, and I'd give it 5 stars if the devs took care of that one oversight.

The game itself is fairly fun, however it takes way too long waiting for your opponent. If there was an auto or practice mode where you could continuously play, the game would be better. I also feel as though the letter almost always stops somewhere at the end of the alphabet. Anyway, it was ok for a bit, but not one I would keep or recommend at this time.

Hi, sorry for that. We cannot force anyone to play the game, therefore it happens that some players simply forget about their game. We can only recommend you to start multiple games at a time so you'll always have some rounds to play. For questions, just send us an email to stop@fanatee.com. Have a nice day! =)

Ok I've got to admit, this game is really a really great way to spend time when you're bored and it's really addicting, but the things that annoy me the most are ads and running out of lives. Anytime you click out of something on this game, an annoying 30 second ad shows up. I know it's how you make money, but why place an ad literally everywhere? And for running outta lives.. It doesn't let you host another game if you're out until time is up or you pay. Overall, I'd MAYBE recommend this game!
