Word Connect: Association Game

I love being able to continue guessing until I get it. It would be nice to be able to start over if it gets too frustrating

I appreciate that some puzzles are challenging and the ads really aren’t that bad compared similar games, but it seems as if the puzzles are developed by AI or perhaps folks for whom English is a second language. I have lost turns because the clues don’t agree grammatically. For example the category/connection is bubbly personality, but the clues are lively, outgoing & joyful (all adjectives) and the fourth is enthuse (a verb). This is one example of several like this. I’ll stick with it for a few more rounds, but it’s defeating to lose on a developer consistency error. I hope this gets fixed because the UI is really nice. :)

In one game, the wine Chardonnay is just ‘chard’, as in ‘Swiss chard’. In another game it’s Chardonnay. In another game, one of the words for ‘influential inventions’ is simply ‘inventions’. In many other games the categories they decide to put words in don’t make sense. Some word answers don’t fit with their word types, for example ‘mislead’ is in a category with nouns (falsehoods), but it’s not a noun. Some of the words are missing a single letter at the end, so it’s hard to guess what the word is. There are other issues but those are just the ones I remember. I’ve only played about 15 games so far, and my conclusion is that the quantity of issues this early in game play is the result of lazy development.
