To me as a word enthusiast this game is great. It has fulfilled my expectations and even more. Its visual design, its plain animations and variable options also made it a convenient experience which makes it a good game on its own and not just a good word-spelling game.

I find it very important that there's a report button for words that are not in the game's dictionary. I've found a couple of those which are considered legit by the Merriam-Webster dictionary yet aren't included in the game so I hope the creators will review them and add them later. Speaking of that, once the game receives an update or a minor fix, i hope I could see the word list with the words included in the new update. That would be helpful and would show the feedback from the developers.

However, there's some problems with the game balance when it comes to the ultramarathon mode. I find it way too unfair. I've beaten every single mode in this game but I only got to round 10 in ultramarathon at max when you have to beat 20 round in that mode. Even if I utilise every single perk, I don't see myself ever getting near to beating it especially including some unfair special rounds. My main concern is the special round where you can only use a word that is 4 letters long at max, then the next word 6, then 8 and so on up until 10 letters after which you'll be able to spell words of unlimited length again. It's very restrictive and requires you to be rather uncreative. I can easily spot a 9 or a 10-letter word in many layouts, which I do even in this round, yet I have to go with the most boring play ever wasting the layout's potential. It's not challenging, it's just a restriction which ruins the fun and other bonus rounds don't go that far for that matter.

Anyway, I just wanted to point out what could be improved in the game and it still remains a top pick for me when it comes to word-spelling action. Hope to see this game develop and see what it has to offer in the future!
