Scrabless - NoAds for Android
Was four stars. Connected and played okay yesterday. Won't connect today. Same devices, same network. Only bought this for the network option. Looks like I wasted my money.
Bought for network play function but so far the game has always dropped connection, usually halfway through a match. The continue option doesn't recover the situation as it tends to give the same annoying 'peer quit, bye-bye' message. Tested with two tablets less than five metres from the Wi-Fi access point, both with high/max signal strength.
I have been looking for a network scrabble for such a long time to play with my wife on the local network. I found this version and it seemed to be just what we were looking for. At first I was very impressed, it was exactly what I wanted, but then partway through the game it dropped out with a network error. Three in incomplete games latter, same error every time, I was somewhat less impressed. Thinking that the problem could have been something to do with the free version we decided to take the risk and download the full version. Two more incomplete games later and I realise that I have wasted my 60 pence. What is a very promising game is let down by a major flaw in one of its main distinguishing features. Back to the searching. update: I have noticed that the score is often incorrect. I thought I might be imagining it at first, but just scored 15 for a 7 letter word. :-( Added two points prompt reply from author. If network is fixed I will add another star. The game has promise and is worth 5 stars if the network errors and scoring are corrected.
