- “It gets boring after you complete the story mode, leaving you with multiplayer which doesn't change anything.”

Gameplay is generally smooth and enjoyable, featuring great graphics; however, some users note that the game's dictionary is lacking, omitting certain English words that could enhance the experience.

- “Gameplay is smooth and easy.”
- “The game is good - great graphics and smooth gameplay.”
- “The gameplay itself is kind of fun, which is why I gave it 2 stars instead of 1.”
- “Many words are missing from this game's dictionary. Some seem to have been glossed over, while others appear to be excluded because they may be deemed 'offensive' by some. Nevertheless, these are English words that should be included in a game where the English language is the main mechanic.”
- “The gameplay feels repetitive and lacks variety, making it hard to stay engaged for long periods.”
- “The controls are unresponsive at times, leading to frustrating moments that detract from the overall experience.”

Users express frustration with the app's tendency to interrupt their background music during ads, which can be inconvenient and disrupt their experience. While some appreciate the ads being soundless, the need to manually restart their music after a brief ad is seen as a significant downside. Many users would rate the app higher if it allowed for simultaneous music playback.
- “Some people think better when listening to songs; I would give it 5 stars if it could play songs while also playing this game.”
- “In regards to the ads, sometimes they'll play but be soundless (which I'm absolutely fine with, I understand y'all need to make money), but other times it'll switch my music off just for the sake of a 10-second ad and it's really frustrating since I have to click off the app and put my music back on then wait for the app to load up again.”
- “One thing I would like to point out is that this app stops your songs from playing in the background, which is pretty much the only downside (for now).”
- “Some people think better when listening to songs; it would be a 5-star app if I could play songs while also playing this game.”
