way too many ads to the point it drains my phone battery. I'm not paying money just to get rid of the ads. I understand some ads, just not to the battery draining extent. It's a shame as it's a good game but uninstalling because of the ridiculous amount of ads. ETA Judging by the reply I got, my review was not understood. I have played other games that have ads to remain free and they are still enjoyable because it's not an overload. I have never, and never will pay to get rid of ads.

We're sorry for the problems you're facing, Amanda. If you wish, you could send some screenshots or videos of the ads that are making your device get its battery drained so fast through the "Contact Us" option ingame, and we'll see what we can do about them for you.

I love the game in itself, but I get annoyed when it often only recognises certain spellings of words, therefore losing half a point when the spelling is quite correct (just from a different country). That is my biggest gripe, especially as you can't challenge it at the time... Overall though, a great game that I enjoy playing. (Being able to autofill would be great too, to avoid typing wrong letters under pressure, but I won't push my luck...)

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.
