User Reviews

Reviewers consistently praise Wordsmyth as relaxing, ad-free, and calming with helpful hints. However, major recurring complaints center on the limited dictionary, inclusion of offensive terms, clunky swipe-based input without a backspace or submit button, a daily puzzle limit, and occasional post-update bugs.

Pros

Relaxing, calming visuals and sounds with a simple, clean design
Ad-free play with no timer or rush, contributing to a peaceful pace
Helpful features like the shuffle button and word hints when stuck
Daily puzzles provide a fresh, bite-sized challenge each day
Positive focus on a straightforward word game that many users enjoy

Cons

Word list/dictionary is too limited and often misses common valid words
Some puzzles include offensive terms or slurs, which is inappropriate
Input/controls are clunky: no backspace or clear submit button and swiping to enter words can be tedious
Only one new puzzle per day: many users want more frequent play
Occasional bugs after updates affect gameplay (e.g., UI/interaction glitches)

Recent reviews

I have already hit many common words that most people would know without needing to look it up that are not included. Hopefully over time many of these get added.

The issue with this app is some words that are actually real words, don’t exist in this game. “Words” that aren’t actually words exist in this game. For example, Ween is a word but not in the game. Ins is not a word that I can find to exist anywhere other than as an abbreviation, but it exists in the game. That’s how they manage to make 9 letters span for 150+ “words”. It almost feels like a waste of time past getting 80-100 words.
