Wordle! brings the viral word-guessing phenomenon to your phone with several unique twists. Beyond the classic Daily Puzzle—where you have six tries to guess a five-letter word—the app offers Unlimited mode for non-stop play, Word Fever for a timed speed-spelling challenge, and Wordle! Together for head-to-head multiplayer. Whether you're looking for a relaxing mental exercise or a high-stakes vocabulary battle, Wordle! provides the tools to flex your brain muscles at any pace.

Dinsun Expert Review

Our Expert Score

88/100

Wordle! by Lion Studios is the ultimate playground for logophiles. While the daily viral challenge is what brought most people in, the 'Unlimited' and 'Word Fever' modes are what keep them staying. It’s essentially a fitness center for your vocabulary, wrapped in a clean, minimalist UI that doesn't get in the way of the thinking process.

I particularly enjoy the 'Wordle! Together' mode. It turns a solitary brain teaser into a competitive social event, which is a brilliant evolution of the core mechanic. The inclusion of 'Secret Word' mode provides a nice variation for when you want a clue-driven experience rather than pure deduction. It’s the perfect 'waiting in line' game that actually makes you feel smarter after five minutes of play.

Working again!!
Mon Sep 04 2023 &Grins

If your purchase of this app is not working, just delete & down load app again. (May want to back up your data first. I didn’t & lost stats.) That solved the problem. Here’s the whole story…I wrote a complaining review about how when I purchased the app to get rid of constant commercials of that Whiney, needy king, that all commercials, including the option to see commercials for coins, just didn’t work or was not available. Contacted by developers to let them know thru app via support. Did this 3 times & included screen captures. Didn’t hear anything from them. Frustrating. So I did the only thing I could think of doing. Delete & reinstall. (Solution of other apps) That solved the total ban of ads. Did I keep my purchase? Not sure as yet. That can be resolved other ways. So if app doesn’t allow you to play any ads when you need the assist & you have purchased the app, try the delete & reinstall. So… Developers, delete & reinstall is the answer to my problem. Be a bit more responsive, too.

So many ads and alarming amount of background activity
Sat Mar 05 2022 Pletched

Very little of your time can be spent trying to play the actual game, with all the ads that pop up. And they’re timed ads, so there’s no way to click through them, even if you aren’t at all interested in what they’re selling or EVEN IF YOU ALREADY HAVE WHAT THEY'RE SELLING. I would urge even the most patient and tolerant person not to download this ap, since, even if you don’t mind walking away for a bit while these constant ads play, it seems like there’s a lot of background activity taking place, even while playing the game, causing delays when you’re trying to type your guesses, with huge lags between letters, sometimes even seeming to freeze entirely. I’m not a developer, but I do wonder what is occupying so much of the app’s attention, after signing off on their user agreement and giving permission to god knows what information is being accessed. It’s so bad that it comes to a complete halt at times and crashes entirely. So bad, that I recommend deleting any app that appears to be associated with it, like the ones it advertises, one of which I had considered buying, but now most certainly will not. It the sign of a developer who lacks anything of value to offer, so survives on the sole project of extracting value from others by whatever means is necessary and however possible. tl/dr: this app is way too expensive — especially the free version. Don’t do it.

Game play is very fun. Frequency and length of ads is maddening
Sat Oct 21 2023 Sillo Whet

The good: I absolutely love the challenging game play. If I could suggest a change, it would be to show in classic mode how you compare to other players. Currently, they only show your results compared to the average in the daily/calendar play. The really bad: Players have to watch way, way too many ads. You watch ads after one or two guesses—not just after a puzzle is solved. Also, some of those ads are too long. For example, the Royal Match ads that play are multi-phased. You wait for the ad to time out, only to find that you have to wait through another phase of the ad. Usually , the first phase is quite long. The second phase is shorter, but together, they make for what seems like a never-ending ad. I understand that app developers need to get paid, just like the rest of us. When I get a free app, I expect to watch ads—which serves as payment. Still, the frequency with which ads appear as well as their length make me feel like we don’t have a reasonable exchange of ad time for plays happening. I am going to delete the app. I’m sure I can find something else out there that will challenge my brain without taxing my sanity.

Customer Support? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sat Jan 17 2026 Linneybeans Mom

I’ve played this game for ages and bought coins several times but never again. I have been very committed to following a routine since Nov 1. I have not strayed from that path yet and I’m not going to! However, this game showed that I did not play on two days. I will swear on my mother’s wedding ring that I did play those days. I contacted customer support. They say I didn’t play those days. My word against theirs but they are basically calling me a liar but coached in better words. If you’re looking for any type of “support” may I suggest the Flying Spaghetti Monster because I believe you’ll get better support. Also the ads. I understand that ads are a source of revenue but the average person will know within 15-20 seconds if the ad is for something they’re interested in. The ads that go on f.o.r.e.v.e.r…….are as annoying as a mosquito and a cricket in your bedroom at 2:00am. Long ads are irritating and a turnoff for attracting attention. It’s now the following February and they are stealing the days I’ve played. I even sent in a photo and they had a male bovine effluvia excuse that had holes in it that were so big you could have pushed the national debt through it with room to spare. Please don’t give money to these unabashed, unapologetic, asinine thieves.

I understand ads but it’s wayyy overkill
Fri Dec 22 2023 AKchelsi907

You get an ad every single time you do anything that isn’t part of the app. EVEN when you just swipe your control panel down on your screen while you’re still in the game to turn the brightness down on your phone! If you leave the app briefly to check a text it will open right to your game for a split second then a false message will pop up after you saw the screen loaded saying “you ‘may’ see an ad while we load” followed by an ad. No, it’s not loading for one, and, for two, you’re going to FOR SURE get an ad every time. And sometimes they’re 17+ seconds with no option to skip while others crash the app and make you restart. On top of getting an ad between rounds and multiple times DURING the round, it’s complete overkill. I know that I can buy the ad free version, but $10 is too high. Also, I bought my son the ad free version because we like to mirror to our TV and play together and he still gets ads (not just the opt in ones like they claim - but random ads between rounds).

SCAMMERS
Wed Apr 05 2023 YAY4TODAY

I PAID for the free version only to find out that it is in NO way free. My coins would disappear on me and it was never explained that you could use the same letter twice. Then the game starts using words that are like all vowels and repeating letters. If you need to pay to continue then you are not allowed to see what words you already guessed or what letters have been guessed. Don’t get me wrong, it started out easy. Too easy. Now that they can use the same letter more than once it’s so lame I’m expecting to see words like “weeee” or “sssss” because this game is basically created by a snake. Oh, and you get punished and are moved down a level of you actually have a LIFE outside of this game. I picked my daily prize and my prize was being told that I got put back down a level for not playing. ANNNND I was in a tournament and was in second place being only 30 points behind first place. I played until I beat the first place score, only to find that then someone else was now in first place and was beating me by over 300 points! So for 30 minutes I was in 2nd place, inching towards first place, then out of nowhere comes a score that high? You only get 4 points per game if you’re good so how is this possible? SCAMMERS

Ads after 2 games.
Wed Nov 09 2022 Tellum

Will be just to annoying to play with so many ads. UPDATING: I was contacted by Lion Studio Plus to update my review. After playing for free I wrote a review because after 2 games I was hit with an Ad. I paid for “No Ad,” however to claim coins after a winning game I get trapped in an Ad! There’s a timer on some of the Ads but even after it runs out I can’t find a way to X out of the Ad and end up just swiping out of the game to restart later…without my winning coins. Frustrating and annoying. Not sure why I paid a fee for that nonsense. I’ll give the game an added star because you do have the ability to compete with other Wordle players which can be fun if you want to play with friends. However, since you are also playing with coins (which can buy or win) it’s an unfair game. You can can buy difficult words to send or pay for multiple hints to win a game. Spend a few days on it, but I can’t get pass the trap Ads and playing against someone who may have more coins just seems silly. I can play free Quordle and NYT Wordle Ad free. That’s enough for me. Just like challenging myself.

Repetitive and costly
Mon Jan 22 2024 2Karen H

I’ve been playing over two years now and I’ve dispersed well over $100 (lost count long ago but probably around $200) to avoid ads and keep playing this addictive game. There are constant contests for which there is no way to decline participation and if one doesn’t play, you drop quickly back to novice level. That might not matter if you’re not competitive, but if you enjoy playing against others, you end up with less experienced players and that is not fair. Another irritating aspect of this app is their persistent use of words that can be difficult to discern (__a_e = flame, flake, blame etc. Or _i_er = biker, hiker, liner, nicer, ricer, etc. Or _o_er = cover, hover, lover, mover, rover, etc. And I do mean PERSISTENT!! Annoying because it basically FORCES you to buy « boosters » if you want to keep playing. If you don’t buy boosters to reveal a letter, the game is over for you. Period. I recently changed my player name to: Ready2Quit Update! Be careful putting card info into this app. I started getting charged for things I didn’t order. Best NOT to buy anything on this site! I now have quit playing this game.
