45 Positive User Reviews for What Word

Review

I like the game a lot but I thought the word LYNCH was very inappropriate to use as a word.

Fun variant of wordle

Enjoy these word games

Great Privacy, other games interfaces are better

I really like these five letter games and I got this one because of its privacy settings. But it would be better to allow keyboard input or make the keyboard letters space is larger. I have small fingers and I still suffer with fat finger syndrome on this game. It also allows proper names, which is pretty strange for this type of game. I would like to have the option to turn off the flares at the end of the game as that kind of stuff gives me headaches. Overall, it’s a pretty good game and I

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 Unlimited

Wordle Wordle all day long. A simple short game that actually requires thought. Love it.

Brain exercise!

Can become addictive

Word mastermind

Very challenging and rewarding

not great

It freezes too often

Don Carlene

It’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

Love this game! Wish my score was accumulated to show success.

Would like to keep score.

Fun fun fun

Great way to kill some time while keeping your brain occupied

I love this game

It’s challenging and fun. It tests your deductive reasoning capabilities and keeps your mind sharp.

Same as what word

I’d like color please

WHATWORD

WHATWORD 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 Game

I 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 wordle

This like wordle, only better. You aren’t limited by once a day. You can play over and over.

Proper nouns and plurals

Proper nouns should not be used as answers. There are enough five-letter words without using proper nouns. Bad enough that plurals are included.

Everyday Words

What Word uses everyday words in this ouze. So it is a doable game. If you can’t get the answer , it will tell you. This is so different from another common word guessing game which doesn’t tell you the word after you have used all the choices even though there are no possible word left to guess with out cheating and googling answers. So, I prefer this game, WHAT WORD, which uses real everyday words.

It’s fun but stressful 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

It’s a fun game but it can be a lil stressful 😎😎😎😎😎🥸😏

I love this game

It’s challenging and fun. It tests your deductive reasoning capabilities and keeps your mind sharp.

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.

Great Game...but

I love your game, but American English spells a smell an odor, not an odour.

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!

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 suggestion

Why 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

Love it

A friend in her 80‘s recommended this game to me , and I am in my 50‘s . I tried it three days , and I am hooked now . We even send messages within our circle of friends , to see who was first finishing it. And yes, we do have other things in life too. But, we enjoy sharing this .

What word

Fun and user friendly. Responsive app.

Great Mind Game

This 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.

Love this game!

I enjoy this more than any other word game!

LeeX3

Fun break for a few minutes each day.

Need to revel the word of not guessed

Need to revel the word of not guessed

Great, but…

…I wish it had a way to keep track of my scores.

Good fun

Needs the ability to test words by entering individual letters anywhere in the word . Also some type of score kept. Extremely addictive

Anoying

It’s really fun though it is very anoying when you give up and it Dous not tell you the answer

Great for Wordle fans!

I really love this game it’s good practice for Wordle and helps fill in when you’re done with the day’s game There aren’t many ads so the free version is just fine
