The game is plagued by numerous stability issues, including frequent freezes, crashes, and glitches that disrupt gameplay, particularly during events like the letter hunt. Users report problems such as data mismatches, uncredited achievements, and difficulties logging in, which significantly detract from the overall experience. While some players find the game enjoyable, the persistent bugs lead many to express frustration and disappointment.
- “Really good game, very addictive in a good way. No glitches at all!”
- “The game runs smoothly without any crashes or bugs, making for a seamless experience.”
- “I appreciate how stable the game is; I can play for hours without any interruptions.”
- “Tis addicting, but buggy; there are little rewards and incentives to keep on playing, but when the bugs come, the game becomes too annoying to play: a couple of days in, I got an error in startup that crashes the game, but usually it's fine the second time. Constantly I get an error saying the local data mismatches the server data, sometimes making the game unplayable.”
- “Unfortunately, there are glitches and the game suddenly freezes and gets back; in fact, I was on a task called letter hunt and completed the task, but the coins did not get credited.”
- “Was a good game, now it won't open. Tried reinstalling, clearing cache, it freezes at the loading screen. It runs on my husband's phone; I've played literally over a thousand levels now, and it just won't load. Very disappointed.”

The gameplay is described as engaging yet frustrating, with a mix of easy beginnings and increasingly difficult challenges that can feel overwhelming due to time pressure and distracting elements. While it has potential with features like letter reshuffling and addictive mechanics, the late introduction of certain elements and repetitive annoyances, such as having to mute the music, detract from the overall experience. Overall, it serves as a decent time-killer but suffers from execution issues.
- “The mechanic to reshuffle the letters is such a well-thought-out feature; it might seem insignificant.”
- “Simple yet addictive gameplay, fresh and challenging game.”
- “The gameplay trying to keep you 'engaged' has a lot of signs and practices from scams, where it makes it super easy to start, somewhat annoying to get through the 2/3 but very annoying or nearly impossible to finish, all with the time pressure of deadlines, banners with the amount of people who made it through this level, and very odd words.”
- “The gameplay itself has the potential to be decent, but the many failings really ruin it.”
- “Good time-killer, but introduces a bunch of mechanics later than you can really make use of them, like achievements and dailies.”

The story aspect of the game is largely criticized for its lack of depth and engagement, with players noting that there is no compelling narrative to keep them interested. Many feel that the game is monotonous and could benefit from additional content, such as side quests or varied events, to enhance the experience. Additionally, technical issues and bugs detract from the overall enjoyment, further emphasizing the need for a more robust story element.
- “Boring, there's no story to it and nothing to keep you interested in playing. There are other games similar but with an awesome story to follow and your own train with different parts to collect, so this is a million miles away from that one.”
- “Doesn't record progress on special quests (Halloween), so you never complete all levels.”
- “However, the quest area seems to be broken as it keeps showing I need to finish Argentina, which was completed many, many games ago.”
grinding

replayability
3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
100%
The game suffers from a lack of replayability, as players cannot revisit completed levels to collect additional items or grind for achievements, despite the presence of a level map and bonus words. Additionally, the daily owl collection system is unclear and does not provide a straightforward incentive for players to engage with it.
- “There is no replayability, despite having a level map that you're not informed about. You can't collect more on a beaten level, which makes it frustrating when trying to achieve 'beat x levels' milestones.”
- “The daily owls used for scene collections operate on a ratio rather than an exact exchange, and it's not clear why you should even bother collecting them.”
- “The game keeps track of each level's progress, but it feels pointless since you can't go back and grind for achievements after completing a level.”
