Monkey Wrench - Word Search Wiki

All of a sudden I can’t access it unless I agree/disagree to have my info marketed. I did not agree and it pops up a ‘thank you’ for agreeing. I had to contact the company they use and I can’t delete my info as I don’t have google ads. I was just asked by Apple if I wanted to update this. Apparently I’ll still receive ads that aren’t targeted. I’d still rather have that than give them more info about me. Also, I had to contact the ad mngmt company to find out how to remove the notice so I could access the game. It took a few steps including downloading another app! If you’re not tech savvy it could be very frustrating.

I too love the game and have purchased puzzle packs. However, for the past week, I have been seeing an ad after I play the daily game. I am one of those people who will generally buy the privilege to not see ads, but this is not even a choice! I did notice the choice is offered for the express version of your game, so perhaps I will switch to that - as I have done for seven little words app. In general, I think the games that are most successful at using this model are those that offer an opt out option, or, ask you if you want to watch an ad BEFORE the bonus is given.

Since the last update, I am unable to play. Every puzzle results in the message: sorry there is something wrong with the puzzle. This has been a favorite game with me for years. Please fix it. *UPDATE* This no longer worked after upgrading to iPadOS14 and updating the app. In desperation I deleted the app and reinstalled it. Works fine now. I play this game every day and have been doing so for a few years.

Love this game. Been playing a long time. However since the last update the game is unstable. Daily puzzle Freezing and automatically opening the bonus puzzle. You can play the bonus puzzle but not the daily unless you repeatedly close the app and reopen it but that doesn’t always work. Same goes for Monkey Wrench Seems others are having same issue. PLEASE FIX

A friend referred this to me years ago. It’s part of my morning routine each and every day. Quick but challenging crossword puzzle that gets my mind going for the day. Actually learned a lot of trivia through playing. Have referred many friends and family and those that have played are hooked daily as well. Can finish a puzzle in 5-10 min. Perfect!

I love this game. And when I say that, I mean I LOVE this game. I have literally purchased every available new game pack (except the dailies, but that’s just because I play them nearly every day while I wait for new packs to become available). So, why only 4 stars? Since the new pack, “Sugarcane,” has become available I’ve been unable to play it. I made my purchase, but it still shows the price and won’t allow me to open it. I’ve attempted to purchase it again, thinking there was a glitch in the purchase, but it tells me it’s already been purchased and will be restored for free. The wrench then proceeds to spin...until it doesn’t and the game freezes forcing me to close the app. I powered down my phone and restarted. No change. I even tried to offload the app and reinstall, but it still just shows me that $1.99 instead of making the pack available to play. This is truly my favorite word game on my phone (obviously). Please help me be able to play again.

Recently this app has started running ads that override the silent mode on my phone. If you don’t want anyone to know that you’re playing a game instead of, say, paying attention at a conference or whatever, this unfortunate feature will out you in a heartbeat and you will be scrambling to turn your volume all the way down. Could not give 5 stars while such a pointless, annoying feature is allowed to continue.

I love word games and this one is excellent. It's easy to start and hard to walk away from. And it has become part of my daily routine. My only criticisms are that I agree that the categories could be more interesting, but more importantly, the answers should be correct. Whoever creates the categories needs to check the answers a little more thoroughly. Hello Dolly is not a Gene Kelly movie. Nor was Tim Robbins in Twister. Other than that I highly recommend the game.

I still play the game and have purchased a few puzzle packs. But between the ridiculous 30-second ads in the daily puzzles and what seems like a lack of effort to come up with decent puzzle answers, I’m really disappointed. Current example of the laziness in puzzle answers is from the June 23 daily puzzle. Ready? People from 1950s history: Patsy Cline, Gene Autry, and Jack Webb. How is that “history”? That is entertainment, not history! This is not an isolated example, and has become more frequent. This is really low-effort puzzle building. Please lose the obnoxious ads and put some decent effort back into your puzzles. I just can’t see buying any more puzzle packs if the developer won’t make an effort on their end.

I like the diversity in the categories in this game, but some of the answers I think are a stretch. For example, one of the categories was “movies about slavery” and the answer was “Planet of the Apes.” Now I see how that could fit if I really think about it, but it makes it extremely unsatisfying to figure out the answer when it just feels so...out of place. Another example is today, one of the categories was “famous biologists” and the answer was “Jane Goodall,” who is not a biologist. I just think this would be a more satisfying experience overall if the answers in the categories did not feel so random.

It makes for fairly interesting game play,But the obscure categories I get sometimes really make me want to delete it. Right now I’m playing a game with the categories “formula 1 racers” and “famous economists”. For the most part you can use logic and common knowledge to figure out the words; but how are we supposed to figure out which words are supposed to be peoples names and what names there are when there are so many diverse ones out there? It really takes away from the enjoyment of the game.

Have been playing for years and use the hard level. But I take it a step further and try and figure out the entire puzzle without looking at the categories, unless I am completely stumped. But what frosts me is the lack of new puzzle packs. I haven't tracked but I would guess about one every 13 weeks or about 4 times a year. Gets old playing the same puzzles over and over. Even a new pack once a month would bring 5 stars.

I have been a long time player of seven little words! And I saw monkey wrench is similar! I am blind trying to play this game using voiceover! Like I play Larry kings word search and one thing that they have done is label the letter tiles and the voiceover user taps the beginning letter and it makes an auditory clicking sound then they tap the end letter and it makes a chiming sound! Then the word disappears from the list! I have tried to play all of your games as a voiceover user and seven little words is nicely done!

The game is good,challenging, and enjoyable. My dislike is that when playing the daily free puzzle, I cannot turn off the sound in the ad. Sometimes it just isn’t appropriate to have sound, such as when in a waiting room, or on a line, or in any public place. Please allow us to turn off all sounds. Also the ads are way too long for an app. Check out the way the Solitaire app does ads. I actually look at those ads. These are too loud and too long. So if I am going to play the free puzzles, I turn the sound off on my phone, tap on the daily free puzzle, put the phone down and walk away. When I come back I play the game. So the long ads have made me totally ignore them. Plus I rarely play the game anymore because of the ads.
