Word Chums Wiki

Love this game. I have played for over a year now and look forward to playing every day. You can play as much or as little as you want. You can play with friends or a "chumbot" on the difficulty level of your choosing... or you can let the game choose your player, which is usually very close to your level of play. Chat is available if you want social interaction and you can link to Facebook so you can play with your friends. As you work through the levels, you can play for the fun of it or challenge yourself by working through the quests set forth within the game. Group play is a plus and lots of fun if you want to play with a group of friends. In-game purchases are available for boosts and extra coins as well as items to make your character your own. These items are collectively stored for you to use again and can be upgraded to help you move through the levels faster. Overall, a top-notch game! If you love word games, this one is a winner!

THIS EXCEPTIONALLY FUN, INTERESTING AND COMPLETELY ADDICTIVE GAME IS REALLY A 10 STAR GAME !!!! Of all the computer games WORD CHUMS is the most fun and by far the most interesting. I tell my friends it is scrabble with a BIG TWIST and when they downloaded the free app and started to play, they immediately become addicted, as I am. I find myself even taking my iPad in the bathroom in the middle of the night to play!!!!! NOW THAT IS ADDICTED!!!!! I have played Scrabble and Words With Friends and they were fun but WORD CHUMS is by far not only superior to them but also THE BEST GAME ON THE COMPUTER. When you get set up, you MUST take a few minutes to read the rules because if you just start playing, thinking it is just scrabble, you are missing out how to really play the game and you are loosing out on points that you could really be getting. Give his game a chance and you will immediately LOVE IT. I guarantee it!!

Word Chums is more fun than WWF because it gives you more playing options - up to four people can play against each other in one game or they can form teams of two and play a team game. The avatars are fun and as you earn coins, you can “buy” various accessories for your avatar to wear. That probably sounds a bit goofy but it’s really fun. Any my favorite feature is the star ratings for words that you play. If you put down a word and Chums tells you that it would be worth 34 points if you played it but also only lights up two stars (for example), you know that there is a much better word to play somewhere on that board. And it will tell you when you’ve found the best possible word. All in all, it’s a much more engaging and fun experience than WWF.

Love this game. Just wish the developers would take some of the players suggestions seriously, like let the2nd and 3rd place winners wear the red and yellow ribbons. Update: developers are still not listing to players about giving second and third place winners a red or yellow ribbon. Some players are discouraged because they never get a ribbon or recognition for 2nd and 3rd place. Would love to see some better monthly shopping choices. Would love to see them be more creative. Also when swapping or using a bomb even though it shows good tiles available you end up with 5 ones and can’t play anything. You wasted your bomb. I still gave the 5 stars because I love the game but am afraid I will lose a lot of friends playing the game because they are getting pretty unhappy over these issues.

I have been playing Word Chums for quite a while. I actually even spend the money and bought the pro version to get rid of the ads. I enjoy it so much! I like how the letters turn green when it is a word. You can play with Random people or friends you know. I have some random people I have been playing now for over a year and have chatted a little with them. Usually just find out what state they're from and wish them merry Christmas, stuff like that. The game is a lot of fun and I have my sister playing me on a regular basis. That's really nice because I don't get to see her very often. It is a way we can keep in touch and do something together. It doesn't take that long to play and it makes you think. Good quick diversion from life's stress. It's a great game!

My brother got me started with Word Chums several months ago and there isn’t a day gone by where I haven’t picked it up. I have played other word but ended up purging them from my iPad. They just can’t compare to the well-thought-outfullness of this one. When coins go on sale here, they are very reasonable, unlike other games and last a while. Hints are presented way better also. The only other feature I would like to see is, that instead of wholesale bombing of unwanted letters, please give us the option of retaining those we want. Otherwise, this game is very user-friendly and close to perfection. Buy the paid version and you’ll never be bothered again by ads. Very much worth the price all the way around.

This is the best word game ever. I was hooked on scrabble but since I downloaded this one OMG it beats scrabble. It is awesome for the brain makes you smarter the more you play with it. Love the dictionary when you click on a word. Love the coins you collect to purchase items. I am so hooked I play it every single day. Love that I can play it with my Sister who is also hooked on it. I beat her most of the times lol. I play with my Son once in a while and my Grandson. I got them all into this game it is really an awesome game thank you developers for making this game the # 1 in my opinion. It is so much fun and challenging and I love games that I can challenge. I recommend this to all who love word games.

This game has features that make it fun, such as lighting up when a word is made, which requires no extra taps or submitting to know if attempts are actually words. I play mainly family members, a friend, and a former student of mine, and all are brilliant word aficionados. We make an agreement not to cheat or use hints, but we may earn coins toward bombs. It's a great way to keep in touch with family who live in other countries and right down the road. Chat feature is handy. The goofy costumes can be ignored or used as score boosters or just for fun as one's mood dictates. The more you play high scorers, the better your strategy becomes. Great game!

I love this game and have been playing for over a year! It has so many added options which other popular word games don't have! Just touch your played word and it gives a definition. We have the option to play teams...2 against 2. That's fun..or 4 single games at once! Our CHUMBOTS can be dressed an various outfits. It NEVER has crashed or froze in all the time I've played. Definitely worth trying! Once you try it you'll never go back to other word games! My sister was dying from cancer. Near the end she told Me the only thing that made her happy and distracted from her pain was Word Chums.

I do wish I could gift coins and an actual chum to a friend and not just hats, holds, and hints/bombs! It would also be cool if I could select my own combo of a hat/hold to gift! I wish earning coins was easier and less of a hassle. I’m in the upper level with all of the achievements unlocked and now earning coins is very slow- it’s not as fun. Earning coins through the “free coins” button is a major nightmare and spam/email/privacy problem. It used to be simpler, less of a commitment and yielded more coins! I love this game and getting new chums, hats and holds almost every month and I’m a bomb/hint addict! 😆

I love almost everything about this game. I wish I could play unlimited games. I’d love to be able to add more friends. Also, when we level up, I think we should be awarded more points. The points for leveling up seem low to me. I think it would be fun to have a bonus word of some kind with a nice reward. At first, I wasn’t fond of the shorter game but now I think I may like it best. Is there a reward for finishing that game format if you complete the game within a certain time frame? It is a fun bonus to be able to change the Chums outfit whenever I want. This is hands down my favorite word game!

I love this game! I can't get enough of it. Once you start playing your hooked. It similar to "Words with Friends" ......only a LOT better. You just have to play to see why. The best thing about it is that you don't have to spent any money if you don't want to. And if you do want to spend money it doesn't have to be your own money, because they give you the opportunity to make easy coins. It's great! It's the only game out there that I've played that offers you this option! Everyone else just wants your money. So don't take my word for it.....give it a try yourself and you'll see.

Chums is a Great game! It is so entertaining with the characters, clothing, and bright colors. It is also very good for your mind. You have to use the letters you are given each turn to make words that fit onto the board. In addition to making words it is a challenge to find the best placement on the board to make the most points. I am always trying to take advantage of the W2, W3, L2, L3, and L4 spaces to make more points. It’s a great way to stay in touch with friends because there is also a “chat” feature that you can send messages to the person you are playing.

I love Word Chums but for the past month or two I have been experiencing issues with the game randomly closing. Frequently when I am in the game moving tiles around to try to find words, the game freezes then instantly closes. When that happens it goes back to the home screen. I also lose the history of “best word” options I have found that you are supposed to see when you click on the hint button. Sometimes it happens several times in the course of one turn. This is so frustrating. I have reported it to Word Chums two or three times now and received generic replies. Nothing has been fixed. My playing partner is experiencing the same problem and I have read reports of this happening to other players. I have deleted and reinstalled the app, rebooted my iPad, etc. to no avail. Please fix this glitch!
