  1. ★★★★☆ Great game, relaxing Anna . P. Shee · 10 Jul 2024
    One reason I play this game is because it actually helps your brain and yeah also how I love this game is that it’s calming music is really calm but thank you. It’s really a great day. You should really doll it cause it’s so great like really great and also it’s pretty easy even though I am a new player. I am in love with it. I am I don’t know what level I’m at. I think I’m at 19 or something but yeah but I think it’s a great game. OK some people don’t like it, but I like it but yeah, I wish you dark mode too, but like I wouldn’t really use dark mode, but like I like light mode but like if it’
    mores like if it’s dark mode, it’s kind of kind of a little bit annoying, but it’s OK some people, like it and I understand cause like the maker of the skin doesn’t know if you want light mode or dark mode and also it’s pretty good. The reason that you need lots of coins for like the like the like 100 coins for a clue, just one clue for 100 coins I can be like 50 coins for, two clues😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇 also it says 17+ but I’m literally only nine and I can play it. It’s really matter it can be like 5+ or like it can be any age cause it just matters about your studying and stuff but yeah you don’t get why it says 17+.
  2. ★★★★☆ Great game but dark Mode…please 😭 Faithius · 2 Feb 2024
    This game is awesome! I’ve been playing for months now. It helps with my anxiety and also helps me wind down for bed at night. The only things that bother me are 1. The fact that there is not a dark mode. I play a lot at night and it hurts to look at sometimes because of the bright screen (and yes my screen brightness is down all the way). 2. It feels like there are a looooot of repetitive words and themes. I would love to see some fresh things. I’m at level 3123 but yeah it feels like I see a lot of the same words. 3. The coins. I wish there was more that we could do with the coins. I don’t u
    morese the power ups so I’ve just been racking up coins. Maybe we could use them to purchase frames from precious events, avatars, or highlighters. Just a thought. I love that the game has the different events. Butterfly, Atlantis, etc. I’m hoping that some of the other events come back as well ( Because it seems like there are some dormant events. I could be wrong). I also love love love that I can play for highlighters. It makes me even more excited to play the game. You all make them so pretty! Another feature that I enjoy is the fact that you can see the definition for extra words you find in the word search. It’s nice to learn new words. Thanks for this great game! This is the only word search that is really fun to play in my opinion. Also if you play as much as I do, get the no ads option. It’s worth it, I promise!
  3. ★★☆☆☆ Game needs A LOT of improvements!!!! Sonyasmiles · 5 Dec 2023
    The word search game is good in general and it really does sharpen my mind but the word search game is starting to become pretty boring👎🏻 Why is that the case? Answer: the word search categories are ALWAYS the same things like: a walk in the park or synonyms for pretty and so on. They don’t bother to change it up by adding NEW categories that haven’t ever been added or thought of before say like: types of cats or medical procedures (or types of medical procedures) or maybe perhaps car models; to name a few ideas. And unless the company considers adding whole new categories, the word search g
    moreame will continue to be boring or less interesting. **Update: The highlighters events are super lame and boring.. Yes, they show different highlighters that are very beautiful and appealing but the fact is that you have to earn 900 ink bottles total just to win a beautiful highlighter?! 900 ink bottles total is NOT worth it and you only get 2 ink bottles for each word search game you play!!👎🏻👎🏻😠😡 That’s way too slow for my taste and not everyone has the time of day to keep playing the games. There needs to be an adjustment to the number of ink bottles. I see 200 or even 270 ink bottles total as reasonable and make each game DURING the highlighters events where players collect MORE ink bottles. Say like 5 or 6 ink bottles for each word search game played/earned.** I stopped playing this game almost a year ago because of just how disappointing and very boring this game is!!! Unless the company makes improvements and become more creative with the gameplay, let ME know. Otherwise, I am SO overly done with the game.
  4. ★★★☆☆ I’ve begun to wonder… pullenna · 21 Nov 2022
    How fair this game is when the weekend contest is going on. I will complete 3-4 puzzles and no points go towards my contest points. All of my puzzles are “very hard”. I can be 800 points ahead of someone and they quickly catch-up to me because of this and I complete my puzzles fairly quickly despite the difficulty of the level. It truly makes me wonder if everyone has the same level of difficulty and if they are getting points on each puzzle because I’m not. I’m also going through ads after each puzzle which I don’t get during the week when there isn’t a competition. It’s just odd how others s
    moreeem to gain points a lot faster and move up when I solve pretty quickly yet I don’t get points each time, sometimes very little, all puzzles are level “very hard” and I get ads after each puzzle having to wait to X out of them. It’s frustrating and I’m about done. Also, during the weekly collection games. Once you have collected all the items in a collection, why is it still open? Why would you not give me the ones I still need to get? Instead I spend 3 days of doing puzzles that aren’t getting me anything more than if I were playing regularly. There are major improvements that need to be done.
  5. ★★★★★ Fun little time waster Muhsketchy · 15 Oct 2022
    This is one of my favorite word search games. I like that the letters aren’t so small that you need a magnifying glass to see them. The letters are spaced out well enough that you can pretty much see the word that you are looking for at a glance. Not only that, it’s easy enough to highlight the letters you want without hitting the wrong letter because they are crammed together so closely. I’m currently at level 18 and the game lists the level at ‘hard’ but I have yet to come across any level which has posed any difficulty. The game occasionally has a ‘secret’ word which isn’t on the list of
    morewords but if you highlight it you get extra points. Again, it isn’t very difficult because you are given the first letter and shown how many letters there are in the word. My only complaint is that as you complete each level you have to sit through a video advertising yet another game. Yawn. 😒 Seriously developers, do you really think your players appreciate ad after ad after ad? So many ads!! I’ve not yet been offered an option to go ad free but since I do enjoy the game if the opportunity comes I will probably go for it…as long as the price is reasonable. I don’t mind paying $15-20 for a game like this but that’s about it. It’s not graphic heavy, it’s not an action game, it’s pretty static so if the developer doesn’t get greedy I’m willing to pay him for the work he put in. Otherwise, onward and upward. If you haven’t tried the game yet I say go for it. It’s a fun time waster.
  6. ★★★★★ This word search is awesome Ginger Christmas tree · 3 Jun 2022
    This app helps kids learn and it helps them develop their searching skills it is pretty hard to find them I’m eight now it’s in 37 and I’ve played it since I’m seven I’m on level 18 now it’s been an awesome experience and I think five stars is good it’s a really good app I love how is the word search because WordSearch is a fun for me I’m a just makes me so happy to try them because I like to find stuff really hard stuff I can wear searches if it’s too hard I might ask my friends but I really like word searches and I like fighting stuff I can hide and seek I like that that’s what I like to do
    morebecause word searches are like finding someone in hide and seek for me or like you’re making your own research would be fine but I don’t know how to mix them up I’ll probably print one out but I didn’t yet and hats the pool this Saturday on June 4 my friend is coming over to our pool and we’re playing water hide and seek and I’m going to be it and I haven’t told her but we’re going to have a blast I don’t remember if hide and seek was on our list for crazy for party but we’re gonna do it anyway because everybody probably loves water hide and seek bye.
  7. ★★☆☆☆ Fun but not perfect RaptorzI · 23 Apr 2022
    I’ve been playing this game for a couple of months and I’ve noticed the same thing that many other players have seen. After a certain point the same themes repeat themselves. It gets kind of annoying to always look for the same words over and over again. And there are many words that this game doesn’t recognize as valid words. “Quart” for example. One of the puzzles had “Quarter” on the word list. I highlighted “Quart” to get extra credit but the puzzle didn’t recognize it as a word. Why? Quart is a liquid unit of measure that has been around for decades. But then I’m told that ESS, ARS and FE
    moreU are words that I could’ve got an extra credit for it. When I looked up FEU, it is an antiquated feudal term for a piece of land in Scotland that is purchased by trade. 🤨🤨 Who would use that term in modern-day English? I don’t even think the Scots use it anymore. ARS is an abbreviation, and ESS is a way to spell out “S”. 🤔Seriously?? Can we get real here please? There are so many more words in the English language than are being utilized in this game. Update: it still doesnt recognize words like Quart or Ounce, but then says that OX and WE were words I could have picked for bonus points. Ok, that being the case, why can’t I use AS, AN, AT, BE, BY, IF, IN, IT, IS, OF, ON, OR, SO, TO and US? Those are words, too, you know. One more question: is there some reason why there has to be a Brilliance Tournament on EVERY SINGLE WEEKEND?? Why can’t you leave the DinoMite or Atlantis event going along side the tournament? I’d rather play that on my days off and actually earn badges and frames. Coins don’t buy anything in this game so winning them is pointless.
  8. ★☆☆☆☆ 5-star reviews CANNOT be real! LoveYeaux99 · 17 Apr 2022
    Long read but I literally stopped mid-game to write this 🫠 I’m annoyed 🙃 CONS: There are ads after EVERY SINGLE PUZZLE and don’t put your phone down for more than 2 minutes because you’ll have to watch ANOTHER ad in the middle of your current word search. Yes, you remove ads by spending 6 bucks but you get none of the extras that are offered in their other bundle buys for the same amount! And who wants to spend $6 when other games offer to remove ads for much less. Trust me, I don’t mind spending money on games that I like. Searching for bonus words don’t include 2-letter words or some simpl
    moree words that are clearly in the dictionary. Ok, the challenges that get you coins and move up the leaderboard… 1st place is 1K coins but 2nd-4th is all the same amount, 750…no matter the difference in scores. I scored 2K over 3rd place and that’s crazy. Lastly, I’ve found words during a mini game to collect pics to use as your in-game profile pic but the game will definitely say you missed it when you haven’t. It’s not a big deal but it will get you slightly irritated. PROS: It’s addictive and passes the time when you’re bored or have downtime. I’m a linguist so I enjoy word games…if you’re one in the same you’ll like it. The different colors once you’ve found words is cool visually. There’s no time clock so take all the time you need, no feeling of being rushed while relaxing.
    Developer reply · 21 Apr 2022
    You can remove all ads forever by making a one-time purchase. You can find that under the shopping cart icon in the lower right corner of the game scene. Otherwise, like all popular mobile games, we show ads to support the teams that develop and publish Wordscapes Search Hope that helps.
  9. ★★★★★ Increasingly addictive! MissDayshaa · 4 Apr 2022
    My son saw this game and asked me to download it on his iPad and I thought, hmm well it’s a word game so why not? I simply downloaded it for educational purposes.. but let me tell you, the game also downloaded onto my phone so I started playing. It’s been only fifteen minutes, and I’m already on level 18! It’s a great time passer and it’ll cause you to really look and think. I hardly ever leave reviews for games I normally just go about my day but I just had too. The only thing I’m not fond of is the ads. They aren’t excessive but it does get a little annoying. They do have a feature where you
    more can pay $3.99 for ad/free play. Other than that it’s a great game, the music is very relaxing and it helps you think more but also enjoy the game. Super engaging and beautiful. I liked the message they have at the beginning of the game where they said they’ve put a lot of love into the game. That was adorable. We can tell! Well, I can tell! Great game, though how many levels are there? Cause I’d hate to finish and have to find another game haha.
  10. ★★★★★ Even the music is calming kenubekat · 4 Nov 2020
    One of the reasons I play games is to just relax and take my mind off of whatever is going on around me. For that reason relaxation is important and I like the quiet background music that I have a choice to listen to in Wordscapes Search. Another thing I like about it is that we can get extra points by finding words that are not part of the puzzle. I like that I can switch the whole puzzle around in a 1/4 turn, especially that it doesn’t cost me points or “game money.“ The ads are not obnoxious…Yet. And I like that I can earn extra points by watching a video or two. And once in a while they ha
    moreve sales on buying extra things such as blowing some of the letters off the board, which usually cost 100 points. But you can buy like 5x for $1.99 once in a while. That makes it more likely that I will spend a small amount of money. But I am not wealthy and I have only a part-time job so I’m not going spend a lot of money. Some games, not this one, I have quit and deleted simply because they wanted me to spend more money to advance in the game. After that it doesn’t become a game, it’s a gamble and the house always wins. This is not that kind of game. This is a friendly game that meets my needs, let me relax, and I love, LOVE the pictures!
