Okay for passing time. Figured out I could turn off "smart robot", but com still makes words within a few points of mine every single time.

This game is fun when played with another person. When played against the "robot" I find it to be extremely difficult.

Impossible to win. Confusing too.

Nice game

1 word 'hard' we like to win to. I play this gam once a month. This game is bad for my ego

The "robot" player plays at optimal difficulty and has tiles that achieve seven letter words often, playing against it feels fruitless. Even for a pro

Superb, just what I was looking for. Works well on my Wildfire. Thanks for this.

Pretty good use of a phone interface, but it really needs a difficulty setting. I dont have a dictionary in memory...

Need to be able to change computer difficulty level. Gets disappointing to lose ALL the time. Droid X

Don't know why you get bad comments. The game is in beta stage. I really love the network game. Play everyday with my girl. I think it's really great.
