Description
Puzzly Words is an exciting and addictive, real-time, multiplayer word game.
Gameplay: each user is given the same 16 random letters where each letter has some value assigned. In 60 seconds, you need to come up with maximum 3 words, which gives you as many points as possible. It is up to you what strategy you choose to win a battle. The one with the highest word score wins.
If you're a big fan of word games such Scrabble, Boggle, Ruzzle, AlphaBetty Saga or Word With Friends and want to play something that would help to progress in word building then you should give this a try! Puzzly Words is a great game to practice spelling skills and build your vocabulary.
What our players have to say:
-- What a fun game and it keeps my mind working!
-- I'm addicted to this game. I play at least once a day and it is hard to stop.
-- So far having FUN!!! Really makes you have to use your brain to get words out fast.
-- Great game, if you like word games, you will love this!
-- I really enjoy this word game. I like that I can play anytime without having to wait for my friends to play first. I'm a good speller so I rarely have to validate my words. This also keeps my spelling skills sharp. Sometimes I just can't leave this game alone so I guess it's my new game addiction!
-- I really enjoy this game. It is very challenging, both for vocabulary and strategy, and I love word games.

My Favorite Word Game
Addictive!! As someone else said: what the heck dictionary do you guys use?? Fix this and you have a perfect game! Don't play when you're tired. Need to be real sharp for this one!

Fun and challenging. Constant competition. Just wish there was a board with past week's scores rather than have them vanish at the end of each week.

Love this game! Especially because it's short! You can sit down and play one game - or 20 and it doesn't require all of your day if you get busy!

Fun and challenging
I absolutely love this game. I've played everyday for well over a year now
2017-03-31
Great game...but buggy!
As many have said, this game is addicting, and easy to play, but has many issues with freezing or locking up. Also...it is SO inconsistent. One day a word will be accepted, and the very next day it is deemed unacceptable. How is that possible!! In any case...fix the freezing issues, add a "dropout" button, and updated your dictionary.
2017-03-26
Great game!
Love word games and this one is on the top of my list for favorites! Hope they will add a chat and also tournaments for extra chip gains!

Still like Word Battle better, but I like this also. So I play them both. Thanks

Frustrating
The time allowed is too short and when you ask for extra letters you mostly get all vowels. It's not "fun".

Love this game... Can play it on my short breaks!

Does NOT use the Scrabble Dictionary as stated
I have no idea what dictionary this game uses. I have played words that are definitely words, and they are spelled correctly but it does not accept them. Just for an example, I played Unsweet and it gave me 0 points. I have also posted other words on their facebook page and have had others say the same. They should encode the Scrabble Dictionary into the game if they are going to claim to use it. This will probably never get fixed. It is very frustrating.
2017-02-08
Great game however
It doesn't give an option to opt out if there is not 4 players. The points on less than 4 players is really not fair. If first place is 40 points then it should still be 40 if it doesn't give the option to opt out and wait for more players.

Addicted!
Love the level matching....no easy competition!

Puzzly Words
I'm not sure yet how much I like the game. The theory is great, but some may have an advantage when they buy letters which changes the dynamics of the game. I like to feel that all is equal with all the players. Also, I think there are too many vowels which makes it difficult to form three good words. I like the idea of new letters popping up, but it is way too late in the time frame to make changes in your already formed letters. Maybe i will grow more fond of the game later. If so, I will change my review.
2017-01-23
Addicting!
Fun, fast game. Totally addictive and, while it is not difficult, challenging. I also really like that there is absolutely no contact between players; no chat/comment/like features. You can keep playing against the same group (if they stay in) or opt for a new game every time.
2017-01-20
Dictionary?
Which dictionary is being used? It is discouraging to have a word rejected that is valid in the TWL dictionary.
2017-01-19
Fun and addictive
This game is fun and addictive but it gets redundant after a while
2017-01-15
I love this game!
I love word Games, but the reason why I like this one the best is because you don't have to wait a day or two days or more for them to play back!
I don't like the fact that some of the words that I know are words don't get counted, but that doesn't happen very often.
I also hate that the app freezes sometimes in the middle of a game, but again that does not happen all the time but more often than I would like! All in all it is a great game and I have recommended it to all of my friends who like word games as much as I do.

So addicting!
2017-01-11
So much Fun!
Well I thought I loved this game but there are so many real words that they claim aren't words that it makes me wonder if the people who made this game can spell. Makes me so frustrated that I have to stop playing for a while then I go back, play for a while and BAM! Happens again!

Games cheats !
Today I had the same word as another player and lost. I went back and looked at the game results and the same word had a different score in the other players favor. I think most of the so called players are really the computer!! Losing faith in the game!! Anyone else notice it cheats!
2016-11-11
Awesome
Addictive, educational game
2016-11-02
Great game!
I love this game. I think it has the right amount of contestants and the time allotted forces you to really think. This game keeps your brain sharp and is good for all ages. Also extra fun when free and bonus letters pop up unexpectedly. I will continue to play and love it!!

Great word game!
One of the best word games I have found
even though sometime I think there could be an error in their calculations. Doesn't take
long to play if you need a little break. Definitely a keeper!

Fun and Fast
This game is fun to play with just enough of a challenge. I've only been playing for about a month and have experienced a few technical problems. Sometimes the letters will not move, and one time none of my words were accepted even though they were all legitimate--not sure what happened. Still enjoy playing.
2016-08-09
Totally Addictive
Love the game.

I love this game but it has a lot of bugs. Sometimes it's slow and will take points and not give extra Time or a extra letter. Lose a lot of points this way and also it sometimes will remove an entire word with seconds to go!! Can be very frustrating, this should be fixed!!
2016-07-14

Love to win, hate to lose!
I love it when I arrange a high scoring word, but not so much when I see that an opponent scored even higher with another word! I'm just trying to keep my brain working.

Puzzly words
Really like the game, but get with it. Accepted words many times are not real words. Any YOU CANNOT ADD PAST TENSE TO A NOUN. Yeast is a noun yeasted was accepted as a word. Where do you get these things validated. My English teacher would roll over in her grave with the words you accept. Forepast is not in the dictionary. It even got redlined on this. Lost over this. My reviews never get published.
2016-03-15
Love this game
I love this game! But I don't understand any benefit to adding someone as a friend who is already playing the game.
Since there is no chat capability, what's the use?
2016-03-12
Great game!
My friend told me about this app and said how much she liked and enjoyed the game.I decided to get the app. I haven't been sorry! I am addicted! Fun and challenging- you won't be able to stop!
2015-10-11
Love this game
I love the interface and fast pace. My only issue -- and it's not a big one-- is I wish there were a few more consonants... I know vowels are important, but the ratio seems ridiculous some times and the "extra " letters come up as vowels as well.
Otherwise, terrific game.

You can play one quick game or stay and play awhile. I've become more skilled with my vocabulary and my mind is working faster to make the words! Recommend!

Mrs
Great, addictive game, very fun if you like word games ! Only problem is like everyone states, there are still bugs that need to be fixed . It is very frustrating to have your words fixed but the last letter won't go up like it should. So then it goes on and doesn't take your last word and you get no points for it. If you can deal with things like that happening occasionally it is a GREAT game !!!!!! Love it !!!!!! 👍 ❤️ 👏
2015-09-27
Great fun game
Love this game but recently there seems to be a problem....sometimes you cannot get another letter, or if you do get it to come up it still is won't work , it just won't move. It its very frustrating and have wasted many points because of this. If this were to be fixed I would definitely give it a 5+.
Since I wrote the first part if of this review the problem has been fixed ....this is a fantastic game, makes you think....and think fast. Very challenging for sure!
2015-09-24
Cray words, I never heard of
I love this game! I'd given 5 stars. However, I noticed words I've never seen before, and I think it's ridiculous ones:(. If you could somehow players in different brackets, that be great! But I love this game..awesome past time😜. More bonus points would be great too.
2015-09-20
Fix the overlaps
I enjoy this game very much but I find that if I make a change to a word the released letters tend to overlap the letters in the "bank" and will cannot be moved out of the way. This glitch forces me to place that letter elsewhere and and then select the letter underneath, then move it out of the way again. This consumes a lot of time and forces me to use tokens to get more time. Last second changes usually result in running out of time altogether. And yes, I have downloaded all the current upgrades. Using an iPad mini.
2015-08-24
Addictive word game
Love this game because you can play one game or many. Enjoy seeing the combinations others find with the same letters. Haven't found any glitches or improvements in play function. Highly recommend.
2015-08-07
Love it!
Great content! The only minor complaint I would have is that it occasionally freezes and glitches. That doesn't happen very often though and I quite enjoy it!
2015-08-01
Love this Game...but
I love this game. It takes a while to learn some of the crazy vowel words and just get in a groove at the game. However, when removing tiles to make a change sometimes they get stuck and hung up and it has cost me the game on several occasions. Please fix this game.
2015-07-26
Great Game
I have been playing this game for a few days now. I really like it.
BUT.... There must be a glitch, it freezes up a lot in the middle of games. I find this very frustrating that I have to deal with problem. If it continues, I will stop playing. Otherwise, it's a great game to play.
2015-07-11
Fun game, but...
I started playing this on my desktop and everything worked fine. However, using the app on my iPad, the right hand coin options aren't working. Kind of frustrating. Love the game otherwise.
UPDATE: Thanks for fixing the button problem!! Very happy now.
2015-07-08
Sticky tiles
Fun game, and I'm happy it's available for iOS. Huge frustration which I'm sure will be worked out in updated versions is that tiles will get stuck, won't move, won't drop into place at times. I notice it most often when it's nearing the end of a round, and I've discovered a better combination word, and when I try to rearrange, I'm sometimes left with tiles hanging and 0 points.
2015-07-06
Great new word game
I have always loved word games and lately new ones (that I like) have been hard to find. This has been my new fav! I only wish the rounds were a little longer... And if they make them longer than to only have 3 rounds.
2015-07-06
Love the game
Game is great, but new update is bouncing between facebook and game-won't load! Please fix!
July 2-still not fixed! 2 weeks(last update)-still can't play😥
July 5-deleted the app, then went back and reinstalled, can finally play again!
2015-06-28
Fun Game
I like this game, however it doesn't work correctly. You can't use coins to do anything. All of this started with the latest update. It is hard to play any games!
2015-06-26
Best word game
A four round game lasts about five minutes. I challenge myself & hardly notice the other players until the final scores come up. Sometimes I get caught while trying to improve my score & end up with few points but I like that the game rewards you with an achievement for dominating each round, lol. If you have time for a game - this is the one to play. It keeps your word skills sharp and has some competition if you are into that. You also learn a lot of words from other players. I like looking at the results of the last few rounds to pick up some new vocabulary.
2015-06-23
Game malfunctions on ipad
Used to love this game, but since the new update I often can not open tiles, or use the letters others have opened, changing a likely win to a loss. Frustrating. I have posted on Facebook page times 2, but problems persist on both of our iPads.
2015-06-23
Fun, fun, fun!
I love this game! I love the challenge of playing with 4 players.
Only problem I have is that I am unable to use the bonus options for some reason. I accumulate coins, but can't use them. I may try deleting the app and reloading it, but then I will lose all my coins😞
Regardless, the game is great fun!

I love this game but your new update has some kind of glitch. It keeps bouncing from FB to game back and forth. Please correct as I am having withdrawals! 😓
2015-06-20
Puzzle Word
This game is pretty fun. I like it because it moves quickly and you don't have to wait on other players to take their turns. The only drawback is that you need coins to use the spellcheck feature and there aren't many ways to win coins which means you have to buy them.
2015-06-20
Great game but ....
Tiles stick and are hard to move sometimes. Other than that, it's a great game. Very addicting!
June 20, 2015 -- your new update has screwed things up!! It won't load, it just keeps bouncing around from Fb to the app.

puzzly words review
Love this game it is very addictive.
My criticism is that it goes off line frequently and it takes a lot of playing to earn coins. I am unable to invite friends to play because that menu will not stay open for me therefore i have to play without coins. I wish they would fix these bugs.
2015-01-27
Great game, but...
I really enjoy this game. It is very challenging, both for vocabulary and strategy, and I love word games.
But - I am so puzzled by some of the words it rejects. What dictionary is being used?
Also, there should a balance of vowels to consonants; sometimes there are 10 or 11 vowels in a hand. That's just absurd.
2015-01-26
Game
The challenge of playing with others help keep your mind sharp; to be quick, focused and to do your personal best.

Truly a fun word game to play. Playing against 3 other people also is a great way to keep in practice with the words you make and to learn from them.

Puzzly words
Well..I do like word games, this is different. You need to act and or think quickly. The dictionary needs to be updated, like the scrabble dictionary. The letters get moved around and lay on top of each other. U lose time trying to see where the letter is. I would like to pick the letter from the side, I had to pay money (some do. Some don't )...I want to pick the square I want. If you use all your letters you should get a coin.
Thanks

Still a lot of glitches because I still can't play my facebook friends neither can my sister. When you clear the board the letter get jumbled, too. But all in all a good word game. I like it as much as words with friends.

Great game, but some connection problems
Love this game but for the last week or so it has been having major connection problems. Words put on the board do nor register but the clock still runs and I am losing most games due to this. It is not only happening on the iPad version, but on my regular PC as we'll. please fix it!!!!
