Word Master - Classic 4+

I’ve had this game for a few months now and cannot stop playing it! It’s the best scrabble app I’ve seen available. It’s just a straight forward basic scrabble game.
You don’t have to purchase coins or gems and there’s no distracting ads or special effects. You also get the option to select several different board layouts at no extra charge. There is a pro version that allows you more layout options if you prefer. You also have the option to play and pass to a friend. But most importantly…. There are NO ANNOYING ADS every 2 seconds! You get one short one after you finish a game and it’s literally 5 seconds long.
I have no complaints and definitely recommend! I just want to thank the developers for providing a game that isn’t money hungry and offers a classic game of scrabble! ❤️

This app is a very solid alternative to the horrendous Scrabble GO - the decimated successor to EA’s former Scrabble. Players will once again enjoy the straight-forward classic approach to Scrabble without the onslaught of cheap, amateurish, annoying, and childish revenue-enhancing ploys associated with Scrabble GO. The challenge levels between easy, medium, and hard reasonably reflect beginner to more seasoned player capabilities and the player-friendly options are simple to navigate. The few drawbacks are fairly obvious - online competition with other scrabble enthusiasts is not possible, at least for now. Hopefully the developer will resolve this in the not too distant future. A deficiency at the “Master,” level of play, while subtle, quite likely exists. Players will find that the developer has apparently substituted random tile selection with a bias favoring the computer’s higher-value, word-forming ability. As the tile bag decreases, players are often left with low value tiles that make it improbable to formulate competitive words. All of this said, satisfaction at the easy, medium, and hard levels will delight players looking to free themselves from the insidious constraints of Scrabble GO.

I went through two word game apps before this, both of which were utterly insistent on “connect to the internet! Play with your friends! Connect this to your social media!”
I deleted both, because what neither of them got is that I just wanted to play word games. That’s it. I don’t need to connect the app to my Snapchat. I don’t WANT to have to connect with friends over Facebook to play a game.
This app is straight to the point, and has good customization options. You can play against a computer, play locally against someone, or try and rack up a high score. And honestly, that is all that I want, and it is everything that I want.

If you want to play word games, then this app is great for doing that. If you want to add a ‘word games’ feature to your social media, then there are plenty of other apps for that.
