Great App!
Tue Nov 16 2021 Sally Rock46Orijinz is a terrific opportunity for learning and fun! As a bonafide member of really old people, Orinjinz its a such a good way to improve memory. I’ve always loved words and am an avid reader and these phrases and words are presented in such interesting ways. When I first started using Orijinz, there was a tiny glitch. I contacted Brad at Orijinz and he got back to me very quickly (within the hour) and fixed the problem. I highly recommend this program and the service that comes with it! Sally Enright Oldie Goldie
Nice app
Thu Oct 27 2022 Hillel S. HammermanFun, educational, and entertaining. Caution don’t use when you have other things to do as it can be …”just one more” and same for restricting children's use times
Fun word game for the whole family

Missing Packs, Broken Multiplayer
Sun Feb 01 2026 thaigirlkcYesterday, I bought six packs to play with. Today, single player isn’t showing any of my new packs, and multiplayer is just flat out broken. Every time I click multiplayer, it just shows a white screen. I would request a refund, but Apple won’t let me. Waste of money, waste of time!
fascinating and entertaining
Fri Dec 22 2023 avigarilove this game, i find etymology and word origins so interesting and there's so many fascinating origin stories that i didn't know about at all! i've learned a lot playing this and the price for more cards is pretty reasonable. definitely recommend!

Not for the truly educated
Sun Dec 11 2022 autnagragThe third card I encountered was “limelight.” The game cheerfully informed me that this came from the process of “burning“ lime or calcium oxide. Lime is already rather thoroughly burnt, as a high school education in chemistry will inform one. When lime is heated intensely, it will undergo two different kinds of luminescence, emitting light, but not “burning.”
