Letters and Dots App Reviews

It appears to have been well over a year since there have been any improvements/updates to this app....just wondering if theres anything in the works to do so? Thanks!

Enjoyed the game and the visual layout. A nice little go-to game app.

This game has a fantastic premise. However, there are some improvements that could be made: 1. The ability to back up on the spelling line instead of having to cancel a word and start over. 2. A better dictionary. eg it wouldnt accept "blogger" which is now a very common word. 3. The ability to request that words get added to the dictionary. The game also says that you get more points if you make a word of all the coloured letters. I didnt find this to be true. Hopefully the next versions will improve as it has the potential to be a truly fun game.

So clever - I need to improve my vocab to get better scores on this game!

I love this game!! Just downloaded it but Ive already played it several times and it never gets boring. Combining letter count and colors to determine your points is pretty clever, and it forces you to be more strategic about building your word set. Super easy to learn and lots of fun to play. I wish it had an option to choose the width of your word board. Also, I wish it had an option to get random letter to just replace used ones rather than random letters "pushing down" the letter column. That would make the play more exciting as youll never know which letter might pop up! Ill definitely be looking for future versions of this game :)

I really like this game, but I have accidentally hit the cancel button so rapidly that it gives me a new game instead of simply canceling the current word try. Could you please move the menu button so it does not appear in the same exact spot as the cancel button?

Game seemed pretty interesting at first. However, I got bored after spending a lot of time trying to find the best word combo. Also, there should be a backspace option or something similar. The letters are small so I often make mistakes and have to start anew. Overall, a good game concept.

I love the app it is so fun

Very original game, conceptually (and I play a lot of word games). But as another reviewer points out, its way way too easy to restart a game (very frustrating). Also, unless letters like Z and Q and J are gonna count for more points, please make the rate at which they show up less. After a few turns, my board is mucked up with terrible letters. After a dozen or so games, the best word Ive been able to play has only been 7-letters long. Im no Einstein but Im pretty good... 7-letter words shouldnt be so hard to score...

I would have given it 5 stars but... 3 games in a row Im having a monster game only to hit the menu button by mistake. I cant go back to the game I was playing. I lose it all and have up start over. Really? The developers couldnt figure that one out and make the changes to correct this?

Ive been playing this for some time now, and it definitely has staying power. Im actually quite grateful for how easy it is to end a game and return to the main menu, though, since I can usually tell within one or two moves whether the board has potential for a good score or not. A few suggestions: 1. A letter distribution algorithm which takes relative frequency into account - I once ended up with 7 Qs and 5 Zs on the board, which makes for rather difficult play. 2. Perhaps a Qu dot instead of just Q? It could still be scored as a single letter, but would make it easier to get Qs off the board. 3. A couple of once-per-game bonus moves such as remove all dots of one color or swap all letters (leaving colors in place). Any of these would remove some of the gameplay frustrations and add some unpredictability without dumbing down the core of the game.

This is a nice word game. It has a fun twist with colors and spelling that provides a nice bit of challenge. So far I mostly make short words because of the color twist for scoring higher points. This game could be improved if it kept your score history and ranked your scores. As it is, you only know if you have earned your highest score, and that becomes hard to improve.

Developers should be smarter designing this game. Super simple and stupid design coz if you hit menu button by mistake(which is very easy) there is no way go back to the same game, all scores disappear and you need to start all over. Very annoying. Game should have a save button or automatically save if one should exit the game.

Good job for making it. Its really good giving this a 5 star

Pretty fun Boggle-type play. Needs to save game when cant complete a game. Would also help to have higher points for using rarer letters.

It is an attractive presentation and it works well but when it comes to the "game" itself, the isnt much there. There is no hook, nothing that makes you want to play again or even just keep playing (unless you REALLY love finding words in letter grids with little feedback).

I like the game but the scoring for items of the same color is flawed. Sometimes it is lower than multi-colored items and other times the score goes down when you go from 3 letter words to 4 letter words.

Music nor sound works os8. Cant save in middle of game & lose all words made if you quit. People have to get back to work after a few min of free time. Please update. More stars after that. Thanks.

I havent figured out what causes it but the game resets. I just went back to a game in progress. Saw my current score. Then, the game reset to the main screen and I lost my score. Of the 20 or so games Ive started Ive maybe been able to complete two.

If only this game would last longer than an old flashlight battery, Id be the world frickin champion of 1,000 points!! Also, when a word beginning with"qu" or "x" or is available and used, we should rewarded with something cool like a flying saucer or a million points.
