No Limits To Gameplay!
Tue Oct 25 2022 spdrp

Text Express seems to overcome one of the largest hurdles with mobile games. Limits on your play. So many other games limit you in an attempt to get you to purchase energy or lives or force ads upon you every so often that keep you from play. Text Express only limits how quickly you can unlock new things, but you can continue to play as you traverse their world from end to end as you wait for different timers. Of course no mobile game would be without options to overcome some of these limits or options to watch ads in exchange for bonuses but Text Express never made me feel like I had to do any of it. To the point where I’d happily have given my money in support of the game simply out of enjoyment. That brings me to possibly my only reasonable negative, and not one that does anything but make me hopeful for improvement. The pricing of the items in the store and the subscription plan all seem a bit oddly priced compared to their counterparts in other games and the benefits of each one ever more so. I hope that this balances out and perhaps a package that simply allows me to continue opening up the story and map at a quicker pace becomes a bit more clear cut.

Great Puzzler

I’m impressed. Matching words across a circle is nothing new, but the rpg and story surrounding the game are done really well. I WANT to move around the map and explore regions, and location specific events help encourage that. I really like the spin off wordle, birdle, that is both thematically consistent and different enough to be something to look forward to. The dictionary is also a great feature. No mandatory ads is also very appreciated. My only suggestion is around UI. I’d love for the dictionary to be more accessible, and not a tiny icon sandwiched between two other settings at the top. I’d also like a way to cancel the current guess. Currently, to not break a streak, you’ll have to deselect a bad guess letter by letter. Sliding away far enough should cancel the whole guess. Great work Story Giant!

Revamp the treasure system
Tue Jan 24 2023 Shadale

I really enjoy playing this game. It’s a stress reliever and unlike some games, it’s not a complete money grab. The graphics are great and I love the story. The prizes that are given for daily and weekly challenges make me continue playing. The reason that it’s not a five-star game is because of the treasure system. I get that you want people to play on a regular basis, and I do. However, when the treasures are placed so far away from one stop to the next, the game stops being fun. Especially when you need to open 50 treasures during special events. This causes you to stop advancing in the game because you’re playing to open treasures before the event ends. The treasure system needs to be revamped. Maybe if you exit the game, the treasure can move to a different location or make some of the items that you win, i.e. new locomotive available for purchase with coins or diamonds.

Love This Game 💕💞

I am not one to leave reviews. I give a game an honest chance and either keep or delete. With Text Express I am totally in love 😍 I don’t feel like I have to buy anything unless I really want to, and if I run out of energy I can still keep playing towards levels. The story line is cute, and the side characters are fun (I really love Eleanor LOL). I love that the game runs on quests versus a totally linear progression. The periodic additional events for bonus content are nice too. Even the ads aren’t bad 1 ad between levels. Doable for me 😁 I only have one suggestion that I have seen on other games that I think others might like as well and that’s when Tilly levels up to refill her wallet. Otherwise great job on a great game! I look forward to continuing to see where her adventures take her 👍

Best word game so far
Thu Dec 22 2022 awebweaver2

I’m always on the hunt for word games that my mom and I can play together and this is by far the best one out there so far. There’s many many ways to keep your brain thinking and working towards your goal of thinking and keeping your mind sharp. My mom is always saying I’m stuck on a word and gives me her letters so that I can get her unstuck ( she’s 78 ) I’ll tease her about it always. I know you can invite friends and family but I refuse to do social media so I hope you come up with another way to let us get to be friends soon. For now we’ll continue our way. I don’t usually have money to spend on games so perhaps you could think of another way for us to get our piggy banks and vaults…. Loving this game

It’s Okay, But…

It’s not a bad word search game, not challenging, they just added in some story stuff to it. They have pretend teams you can “join” that don’t do anything or give you bonuses even if your team “wins” the week. You see the usual sad people on the individual side who play WAY too much, where it’s like so far past the point of a score you should be proud of, and just “oh, sweetie… I’m so sorry for whatever is/isn’t going on in your life and I truly hope it turns around for you soon”. They have promotions and events you can’t be a part of unless you pay, pretty standard stuff, but you can play regular things without paying all you want. You can’t tell what words you’ve already played until you’re penalized for them which is annoying. But all in all it’s pretty good, I liked it for a quick diversion. Gets boring pretty quickly though unless you’re really easily amused.

New upgrade
Mon Dec 09 2024 pamlicorat

Good Morning! I love the game. I have always loved trains and word games, you put them together. Thank you. You’re new upgrade has some things I don’t like. First, I am not a fan of the game going straight to the Task menu. I liked it better in the main menu were you could look at daily/weekly challenges, piggy bank, etc. This having to click out of the task menu to check something else is getting old. The second and biggest issue is “The Finger.” Since the new upgrade, on the side challenges, a gloved finger has started appearing showing possible words. I find this distracting, annoying and slightly insulting. I know some people may need this but I don’t. Can you add a way to turn it off if we don’t want it? Thanks.

Pretty good

I had been hoping there would finally be a word game like this that had story and customization. The other ones are so endless and pointless you just go through levels for absolutely no reason. This adds that necessary reward experience, however it is slow and easy. I am pretty early on, so maybe they'll have longer words later. As far as the story, the slow animations make it too hard to want to even pay attention. It's a cute style and everything, but they move so slowly that I just end up skipping all the story scenes because I'm not waiting for grandma to slow walk to the table so I can read one sentence, and then wait for more things to slowly move for another part of a sentence.
