What real reviews say
★ Excessive ads This app is plastered with ads. Horrible user experience.
★ Too many adds Don’t download this one, you have to watch a 1-2 minute add after every single turn. There are plenty others out there with less adds and it’s the same thing.
★★ Errors Hopefully they fix glitches before it comes off Facebook. I tried starting playing on the app before the Facebook version went away. Playing against other real people seems to go fine. But if you try to play against the computer, after a few games it throws a failed to synchronize error. No matt
