Ratings and Reviews
Enjoyable, but . . .
This game is fun and helps build your vocabulary BUT there are far too many foreign words included. There are also a lot of obscure medical terms, which is fine, but there are quite a few words that are in different Asian languages that are simply not part of the English language and haven’t really become part of the English language yet. Also, there are a fair number of proper nouns that supposedly aren’t included, but they are included. I think better quality control would help the game be more enjoyable.
Abridged vs Full Dictionary
After playing Whirly Word for several months, I just found that “Options” gives me choice of dictionary. I experienced the same thing other players have written in that I kept playing the SAME puzzles with the SAME words. It was disappointing that there was no update to the game. So I think if those people who wrote in knew about the “full dictionary mode” which is very challenging they would find it enjoyable. I do prefer the words in the “abridged dictionary” rather than the “full dictionary” because there are so many words I’ve never heard of!!
I do enjoy playing Whirly Word!
Not Enough 6-Letter Words
Game play is OK, although I do find it frustrating, as others have mentioned, that when letter is tapped, it does not always register. Also, the dictionary is terrible. But the main problem I have with this game is the EXTREMELY limited number of 6-letter words that make up an individual puzzle. For example, I have worked the “ENGAGE” puzzle at least four times in the last couple of days (out of maybe 50 games played). If more words were added, this would be a much better experience. It could also use a “last word” button to bring up the last word entered. This would help a lot with words ending in “S”. I miss Word Warp!
