Good, but needs a different dictionary – Paperback: The Game Review

I was just browsing in the App Store and found this great game. My family really enjoys deck-building games (Dominion, DCDBG) and word games (Text Twist, Quiddler), so this is a great marriage of the two. Within 48 hours of me buying the game for my phone, it was also downloaded to the iPad for my middle-grade kids, to my husband's Android phone. We just got the physical game in the mail. We don't have the issues with the AI getting lucky cards, and I didn't notice how it is making less than strategic choices. However, the dictionary is a little wacky, as others have written. The AI played "arrrghh" and "altho" and a few other words that are not real. I was also annoyed with a racial slur that it played ("jewing"), and a coworker said the AI got away with a different slur/curse word, but I never heard from her what it was. With a new dictionary, I would rate this a five-star game.
