The Mini words series are alrigth word puzzles where you need to find words in a letter grid by drawin lines between them, with later levels complicating things slightly with adding more words for each puzzle and prohibiting you from crossing a line for example.This one however is much simpler, it's clearly designed for kids or possible adults that are just starting to learn english since the words are pretty basic ones and are shown with a picture, there where a few where i struggled for a moment to figure out what the picture was suposed to be, but that's it. You will breeze through the game, I did it in just over 30 minutes, but that also includes at least 10 times where the game freaked out in various ways (often by breaking the puzzle so each letter was doubbled when you tried to solve a level, forcing you to restart). So yeah, plently of bugs, and I don't expect a 5 year old game to suddenly update and solve them. This is one of those games that are hard to judge, There is zero challange, the other games in the series are much better and it's also "limited" so if you want to play it for a easy completion to make numbers go up, you are out of luck, But this is also not re…

For a spelling game its straight forward and good to play with a kid or adult learning about english. there was a bug I did experience where two, Letters would be placed instead of one, after clicking the menu during gameplay, happened twice. Only fix was to reboot the game. other than that good little educational game.

Great little game. Bought it to try for my kid, and it's awesome. Immediate buy for their account. The puzzles are digestible and some are legitimately tough. Nonetheless, they help with pictures, dashes, an audio feature I didn't utilize but was probably great. 10/10 Would suggest.

pretty underwhelming, I don't know if this series or the wordle (not that one) series came first but I'm not really impressed in either case.
