Love the Game!When sitting waiting for someone it's a great game to play. It passes the time and waiting becomes less tedious. Sometimes I'm
amazed just how long I've been playing. Oops , they're there!
Not a word???I was just playing WhatWord and entered “grope.”The response I got once I entered the word was “we do not know this
word.”So I looked it up in my dictionary and found the following definition “to feel around.” Please add this word to your
lexicon of acceptable words.
Wordle UnlimitedWordle Wordle all day long. A simple short game that actually requires thought. Love it.
Good fun and good for brain.I play this every day, usually while winding down at night. It’s interesting and challenging.
I wish there were less ads to Wade through to start again.
Fun word challenge gameIf you like word challenges, this is a fun game. I really enjoy it. It has a few ads but for a very small fee you can remove them,
and I wish it kept your stats perhaps down the road.
I love this gameIt’s challenging and fun. It tests your deductive reasoning capabilities and keeps your mind sharp.
Don CarleneIt’s great for my brain. I don’t get it when the same letter is used twice. Need a way to get to the answer without a prompt
for Twix used letter. Lol. I guess it’s my old brain
JED85Love this game! Wish my score was accumulated to show success.

Fun ChallengeI love Wordle so I am glad I found this app that lets me play all day long.
Love this game! But…It would be nice if it could keep a tally of each score.
Fun fun funGreat way to kill some time while keeping your brain occupied

WHATWORDWHATWORD is fairly good clone of WORDLE of THE NYTIMES. WORDLE offers a few extras that WHATWORD lacks. The two exras I miss
the most are your personal stats kept by the game and the snarky Robot.
Addictive.Challenging, but not too hard. Lots of fun!
Great GameI love this game. I may be addicted to it. I it for many hours every day. I do love word games. And the ads are short and not
obnoxious. This is a fun, smart game.
Just like wordleThis like wordle, only better. You aren’t limited by once a day. You can play over and over.

Really Fun!I just joined a NYT Wordle group , so this game is good practice and so much fun!
Love it!Just like wordle and few ads. Only problem was once I gave up after 4 tries and it didn’t tell me what the correct word was. I
should have put in all 6 guesses even using letters I knew were not in it.
Likeable - not zany flashyI looked at 5-7 other apps of this type, but this one had the features I liked best (most like the famous newspaper version) m.
User-friendly, 99 cents to stop the ads, and it's a logical word puzzle to figure out! Warning: addictive!
No trump adsI quit my last word game because a trump donation ad came on. I suggest that not happen ever!
Yes!I enjoy WHAT WORD as a practice venue for the daily New York Times WORDLE.
Fun gameWhat Word is a good challenge and I can often guess a correct word. They add a few double letters to stump the player
JED85Love this game! Wish my score was accumulated to show success.
I love this gameIt’s challenging and fun. It tests your deductive reasoning capabilities and keeps your mind sharp.
Getting hookedWish you could more than one puzzle a day!
Great Game...butI love your game, but American English spells a smell an odor, not an odour.
Love it!Challenging but would like to be able to see some of sort of recap of the words and how many you were able to solve in three,
four, etc tries. In other words, your achievements. I think that would be motivating.

Love the app but have a suggestionWhy does the app not give you the correct answer if you did not figure the puzzle out?
Very frustrating to not learn what the answer was
LeeX3Fun break for a few minutes each day.
What wordFun and user friendly. Responsive app.
Great Mind GameThis is the best mind challenge game I’ve played in a long time. Very challenging and fun. If I could improve it, I’d have it
keep track of your progress and show standing against others.
Yes!I enjoy WHAT WORD as a practice venue for the daily New York Times WORDLE. Question: Why isn’t the word OUIJA acceptable in this
version? It is valid in the NYT version.
What wordGreat little game to Play In those moments that you have downtime. Like when you wake up too early and you are not ready to quite
get up
Love this game!I enjoy this more than any other word game!
Great, but……I wish it had a way to keep track of my scores.
Good funNeeds the ability to test words by entering individual letters anywhere in the word . Also some type of score kept. Extremely
addictive
Great Game!No hints, no other distractions, just the game. The dollar for turning off ads is totally reasonable too. Allowing pluralized
words adds another dimension to the game as well. Great game!
SpanglishI selected to play the game in Spanish, but I found out some of the words are in English, why?
Good StuffFrustrating but fun and you expand your vocabulary in a big way. I enjoy playing it, especially on the subway or bus.
I love this gameIt’s challenging and fun. It tests your deductive reasoning capabilities and keeps your mind sharp.
WordleLove this game but why do they do commercial right in the middle of a game when I’m trying to concentrate. Wait until after
game!
Aldo some of the words are so obscure!

ReviewI like the game a lot but I thought the word
LYNCH was very inappropriate to use as a word.
So-SoI really would like to know my % wins and my total games played.
Proper nouns and pluralsProper nouns should not be used as answers. There are enough five-letter words without using proper nouns. Bad enough that
plurals are included.
What WordThe game uses words that are of a different language than selected.
What’s the Word??It’s titled correctly. Because if you don’t guess the word by number six, it just takes you to the next game. Why doesn’t
it tell me what the word was??!! That part is so annoying!
Lots of comparable apps are betterFirst of all, there’s no way to contact them for gelp. It appears that proper names are occasionally the answer which I found
surprising and lame.
Need to revel the word of not guessedNeed to revel the word of not guessed
AnoyingIt’s really fun though it is very anoying when you give up and it Dous not tell you the answer
Won’t let you take a breakThe app comes back with a blank screen if you switch apps during play.
When it works it’s greatWhy is it telling me it doesn’t recognize simple words like steam or bring?
Fun but needs refinementWhy is the grid so small? Lots of unused screen area. Also the size of the keyboard makes letter selection difficult
interesting gameI enjoy the game, it’s the right amount of challenging. But you can only see the level you’re working on, and can’t see how
many games you’ve won. If you could see how many levels you’ve won it would be 5 stars
Would love to buyToo many ads. Would love to buy this game just to get rid of the ads. Please add a buy button.
Nice game, but needs ad free versionEnjoyable. Need a subscription model for ad free play. I won’t use this much longer if ads keep popping up on the screen. Will
gladly pay for a better user experience. Otherwise I’ll stop playing it soon.
Missing words in dataApp version of the popular web based game, my hats off to this developer for jumping on their chance. But there are some v common
words (grape for example) that aren’t in your system’s database as words and the game doesn’t accept them.
