Letter Fridge Wiki

While the basic gameplay isn’t anything really new (word scramble), what makes this game really stand out is its unique and charming theme. The colorful fridge magnets instill a cloyingly nostalgic feeling. Coupled with the retro-style artwork of the game, the overall aesthetic of the game reminds the player of a different time, when physical toys were the object of child-like wonder. The mechanics of the game really play into this, as the letters move around realistically, being pushed by other letters or sliding a little if you flick them. I applaud the developers for taking a tired game genre and making something that truly feels like it has some heart in it, unlike the countless run-of-the-mill word games out there.

Fantastic app! Great job!! Spent many hours playing this crossword game. Loved the increased challenge as the game advanced. I found a lot of legit words that were not usable, but not crying over it. I think one of the best aspects of all, was not having to spend a penny on hints! I know developers are hoping for players to spend money on their games, but I don’t mind having to sit through 30-45 seconds of ads occasionally, though the medical ones are annoying. Really looking forward to a new version. Oh, and one last thing! Make the ending a little more exciting! Balloons, fireworks, animation, etc. But, just “Game Over” was sooo anti-climatic! Cheers!!

Whole new game! If you haven’t noticed yet you can up your score with words not in the crossword! No timers! Much fun shoving the little magnets around. The valid word list is hard to figure out; lots of perfectly good words not on it. A list of words already submitted would get you another star. I do wish devs would just offer trials and then ask you to buy up front after a set number of levels or set time. I dislike the “buy hints” business model. Usually I just delete such games, but this one is not obnoxious about it, and the game itself is very charming.

I enjoyed playing this game before the crossword form. But I really like this newer version so much better!! I was even willing to spend money to buy points so I could get hints when needed. Unfortunately, after just spending $9.99 and only using a couple of them, the game was over!! I didn’t pay close enough attention I guess, but unless new levels are added, I’m out my money. So be aware where you are in the game if you plan to buy points.

I am glad that gotgame. I was the generation of “see it say “ it. Spelling has never been a strong point for me. It has always been a struggle and will always be a struggle. But with this game I am able to do much better than the other games that I have been playing. I love the colors and how they do it. Thank you very much to the developers in how they have designed this game. For “being a not so good speller“ I do very well on this game.

I love these types of apps but with most of them, such as Word Cookies and Word connect, there are only certain words that work. With this app, rather than get just a bonus for certain words, they all work!!! Also, there are barely any adds, and i have never had any performance issues on It. Another thing i love is that if you can’t find any more words and take a break, you get a notification with a word you haven’t found yet!!!! What an amazing app!!!!!!!!!!!

Fun word game with a different approach, which I enjoy. Definitely a nice change from the usual word games. I do agree with another reviewer; maybe have a submit button? I think it would be nice also if perhaps you could have the number of words you have to find, but could also earn bonus points other than for just the one word that’s assigned. Don’t end a round automatically because the required number has been found but let people keep going until they can’t make anymore words. Oh. One more thing. Give an option to pay to remove ads. I know I personally am always down to pay for that when I really enjoy a game. I’m also more willing to occasionally purchase other game items when I can play something without advert interruptions.

The only thing I would suggest that would make this already really really fun game just a bit better and even harder to put down lol would be more question solving to go along with solving the word. When a new “puzzle” first opens you are given a “clue” as to what a word within the puzzle is and you receive bonus points for solving that word (very much like a crossword puzzle) and then with the added twist of a word scramble. If given the option to have every word in the puzzle have a clue to go along with it I would Jump on that and spend even more than the $1.99 that I paid for the ad free version of this game! Thank You for making such a fun and addicting word game!

The November 16 update did the trick and the game now plays on my iPad 3. It is a very entertaining version of the classic word game where you are given a set number of letters (in this case fridge magnets; a very cute idea) and you must come up with a set number of words of three letters or more (with a bonus for any word five letters long). One idea for a future update; maybe as you progress you might be invited to change more than just the color of the fridge or the photo above the fridge; maybe additional fridge magnets to decorate your fridge? Even without such an update, so far it is a lot of fun and I can see me playing this one for quite awhile.

I’ve gotten over my distaste for the update and continue to play. But there is one thing I notice and it’s always been a problem since I got this app. I would play it in bed, fall asleep playing it, and wake up to find my phone hot and on critical battery because THE SCREEN NEVER TURNED OFF ON ITS OWN while I slept! It’s not a problem with my phone that I’m aware of, it’s just this app that does it. Somehow this game is able to override my phone’s lockout time and keep the screen running indefinitely. Would appreciate a fix. Thanks

The game definitely delivers on what it sets out to do, but there are a couple of things I’d like to see changed. First, I wish there was a way to unlock new refrigerators by playing. Currently, the only way to get new ones is by spending real money on them. Also, I wish the game kept a running list of words you’ve already found. I realize they are on the screen in the crossword puzzle, but it would be easier if they were also in list format.

This is a really fun game...that is, unless you have a large vocabulary. The concept is great, and I love the work that went into making the fridge magnets move just like you would expect them to. I also enjoy the sounds and the overall vibe. Putting the words into crossword puzzle form is also fun and can really help when you can’t think of any more words initially. That said, however, and this is a big however for a word game, the words that are accepted are inconsistent and frustrating. Sometimes conjugated verbs and plural nouns are accepted, and sometimes they aren’t, for no apparent reason. I just played a round where ‘mar’ was good, but ‘mars’ wasn’t. They also sometimes accept archaic words that I’ve tried out of desperation, but then won’t take other more common, if also somewhat old-fashioned, words. Sometimes slang is good, sometimes it isn’t. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to their word selection, and more often than not, I simply find myself frustrated while playing. I waited several months before posting this review in case they got it sorted out, but it’s just as bad as when I started. If the dictionary of accepted words gets fixed, then I’ll happily keep playing. Until then, I’ll be deleting it to save myself the frustration.

The theme of this game is great, and it definitely has that "just one..more..round.." addictive quality to it, but after a week or two, I have a few issues that mean I'm about to quit: 1) the dictionary seems oddly incomplete. After 20-30 rounds, some letter combinations count as words that I have never heard of, while other, more common words, don't count at all (really? "Bagel" doesn't count?) 2) every round has a crossword puzzle-like setup which you have to fill in words for, but many valid letter combinations aren't the words the developer wanted, so they just get counted as "bonus words", which earn you extra coins. That's fine, but it doesn't maintain a visible list of the words you've unlocked as you progress through a round. So by the end of a round when you have just one or two more words to find, you're making random words over and over only to realize that you already guessed it five minutes before. A list of found words would be great 3) I keep getting the same letters over and over. Level 25 is not much different than level 5, except the puzzle is larger. The letters are the same. The words are the same. The challenge is gone, there's nothing new to see or find.

I wish the developers would use a better dictionary to validate words. I play this game a lot despite the annoying flaws. You get 7 letters. Try to arrange the letters into a pre-set number of words, ( 10 to 25 words per hand). The developer limits what words are acceptable for each round. Sometimes common abbreviations are accepted as words (bro, pro, ref) while others don't. At times, plurals or tenses work but not consistently (seems random). Sometimes you get a Q, but no U... so you cannot use the letter. You earn coins (hints) by making longer words and winning levels. Or, you buy coins with in app purchases or by watching ads (even if you paid for the "ad free version). You can only watch two ads for coins. Then you have to wait or -quit the app and reopen- to refresh that option. Ads may last 30+ seconds. Coins are used to reveal a letter when you are stuck. Play -usually- becomes more difficult as you need to make more words with the 7 letters. Sometimes, the difficulty rolls back, which seems like a bug. One time, I lost my some of my progress and coins. The developer sent me a link to fix it, but the link did not work. Many valid words are not allowed while some sketchy ones are accepted. The developers invite users to submit "new" words. I assume that's where some really obscure niche words sneak in when many common words are disallowed. Yah, this needs the dictionary update for sure!
