It's too hard

No instructions, no way to get out of a game, just impossible for some reason. I do these all the time...just won't take any simple words.
Good game

True doesn’t come with instructions, but if you play it several times it is simple to figure out. Your word has to be at least 5 letters. To get out of game hit end.
Woefully incomplete

I don’t mind not getting all possible words, but find it very frustrating how often it does not recognize common words. Examples: route and router, nineteenth and ninetieth. Free but clunky and poorly researched.
Incomplete word list

Rule 1 of a game like this has to be a complete word list. My second game allowed the word LEGIBLE, but not ILLEGIBLE or ELIGIBLE. Inexcusable.
Good but needs bigger vocabulary

Good representation of the ny times game, and nice that it can create new puzzles. Unfortunately lots of common words are missing. Needs to use a larger reference list. The ny times game is manually curated for common words and is usually reasonable in its words. Hope this game gets some updates!
Frustrating holes in word list

There are no instructions, but it’s easy enough to figure out how things work. Graphics are minimal, but functional enough. Only real issue is that too many legitimate words aren’t recognized by the game’s dictionary. And I’m not talking about obscure words, either: BASIC words! Initially I tried to roll with it, accept it as part of the challenge. But as the list of unrecognized words added up, it stopped feeling like an intellectual challenge and started to feel more like a pointless waste of time and effort. With a more complete dictionary, the game would be unexceptional but fine. As is, it is an exercise in frustration.
Frustrating!

Inconsistent. Common words accepted by NYT crossword and Scrabble are not recognized, and frequently answer list includes foreign words. Don’t bother!
Pretty Good

Update: I think I figured it out. The game doesn’t accept words of eight letters or more. It likes DOMINO but not DOMINANT. Developers, please fix this. It would be so much better. Definitely needs a more comprehensive dictionary. I’ve noticed a few missing words as well. It would be helpful if the words you find were listed in alphabetical order. A button that cleared the input form would be nice as well.
