Latest reviews of Word Waddle app for iPhone and iPad
A reasonably fun and challenging word game different enough to make it interesting. The controls are too unforgiving for a game where speed is the only object, though. For example, often when Im trying to grab and move a tile, the game decides that Im really trying to scroll the playing surface. There should be a way to keep the screen from scrolling so that you can concentrate on moving the tiles. Also if I pick up a tile, move it 5 inches across the screen and drop it next to another tile, unless I drop it with some precision (difficult to do when your goal is speed), the game gets confused. Did I want to drop it to the right of the target tile or above the target tile? Instead of simply choosing one, the game jumps the tile I was moving 5 inches back across the screen to the place I picked it up from (absolutely the last place I want the tile to be). This lack of effective control gives the game a "cheaply made" feel and makes it frustrating to play for more than a few minutes.
This app is entertaining and fun. If you dont download it you are doing a disservice to yourself. Get this game.
Great game, highly recommended for anyone who likes word games. Addictive, too!
This is a fun game I remember playing with family and friends growing up! Overall, this app is clean, simple, and easy-to-use. However, the concept of the game might be a little confusing for those new to it. I think of it like a giant jumble of scrambled letters that need to be rearranged into a crossword of legitimate words. Some things that could perhaps make it better are an individual high score page, some awards or trophies, and a smaller app size (at ~140MB, its one of the largest apps on my device)
Really fun!! Multiplayer is awesome!
