Jumbline 2+ for iPad Wiki

The wife and I often play the game together. As aging seniors, we are always looking for fun things that help the mind stay active. Watching TV , social media, etc won't do it alone. As one review stated, the dictionary is a bit puzzling. A few words are Way out in left field, and others that have legitimate, non offensive uses are excluded. It seems the lowest common denominator is determining what is unacceptable, and that is just wrong.

Excellent game and the favorite word game for my wife and myself. We play it much more often than anything else, in spite of the fact that the dictionary of acceptable words has always been, well, just bad. I can accept leaving out "adult only" words to keep the game family friendly, but many, many other words are also missing.

This is very similar to the old Text Twist, which was exactly what I was looking for. Lots of words, unusual words, and a feature that lets you suggest words they missed. Fun sound effects including soothing chords as you find each word. All around great game. I went straight for the paid version and am very pleased with my purchase!

I play this frequently while relaxing and passively watching tv in the evenings. It works flawlessly. The words are family friendly. Not too easy and not too hard. It’s quite enjoyable.

Love the game - play with the kids and on my own. Would like to see more words added - or have a chance to contribute words and definitions. Would be nice to have a hint function - like the first letter of a word

Love this game with its options of word size. It really makes you think and I have been often surprised by how many words are often spelled with the letter combinations. Highly recommend it!

Like all of Brainium's games the graphics are excellent -- colorful and well-executed. The game play is fun and challenging. Very highly recommended! Note: some words are "archaic" -- long since out of use, so don't hesitate to try some unusual combinations of letters.

I’m glad this app was updated for latest iOS features alphabetical placement of words makes it easier to find more difficult ones .

A game that's challenging and fun. I've been playing it for a while. It gets more interesting as it gets harder. I'm always learning new words and new strategies to unjumble the words. I never tire of it! Dictionary should be updated tho

I completed 1184 levels in the 6 letter game. When I first started playing I would use cheats if I couldn’t find the big word. About level 200 I decided that I would quit doing that. I learned that if I quit playing and then came back later, I could usually figure out the word. So I got to level 1185. I couldn’t figure out the big word so I clicked on the button that I thought would take me to the next level. I was asked if I really wanted to quit the game and I said yes. So what happened? I was taken back to level 1 to start over again. Who knew that all those levels were part of ONE GAME! I wouldn’t be so ticked if I would have understood that. I went back and read the description of the game and it is unclear that each level is only a part of ONE game. Anyway this is just a little information for someone who wants to play this. I don’t really want to start over so I’m debating on whether or not to continue playing. Yes, I could play the 7 word puzzles or the 6-expert but I wanted to see how many levels I could achieve. Oh well, I like the game, er “levels”… but the lack of clear instructions cost it a star.

I was hooked on the old version on my iPad 4 and kept playing even though I had to shut it down and restart for each level. Finally caved with the new iPad and the latest version of Jumbline. Noticed three things that I wish were same as the old. Such as touch a letter and a jump to the end, running history tally of scores and adjust time to 2 1/2 minutes. Especially would like to select time, 2 minutes or no minutes not good enuf.

This is a good game, providing a nice way to wile away some time, decompress after a busy day, and test vocabulary. The vocabulary is the problem! There are a number of legitimate words that are not accepted, and quite a few that are marginal (ex. "its" is a contraction that is accepted, but some other contractions are not; the word "nil" was not accepted, but has a clear, standard definition). In general, it's a good games, but needs some vocabulary tweaking.

I liked the original game better. I don’t care for how the letters jump... kind of hard on the eyes. I’m not fond of the way moving the letters work now. It was perfect before. Some of the words that were accepted before are no longer accepted. Still enjoy the game but miss the old version.

My previous review below....This game with it's multiple degrees of difficulty and different game choices can suit many people. It operates in several different ways which is nice too. You can enjoy it for just a quick game or challenge your record and go addictively at it. The dictionary is a nice add-on too. Current review....the new words that were recently added have ruined this game! It has turned it into a trial of permutations to find obscure words that have no value and when looked up go to something other than the dictionary for definition. Lost my vote. I followed the developer's advise below and the expert option was not checked. Stand with current review....not the same fun game it was.
