The dictionary is somewhat useless. The game doesn't recognize many words. Tried to play INUIT the other day but it wouldn't let me. Also, does not accept any modern and accepted slang.

Plays smoothly I don't mind the significantly different board layout (different from Scrabble / WWF) - although I do like it's asymmetry. Maybe the points on some of the letters could be increased a bit, it 'feels' like some letters are undervalued - but maybe that's just shifted perception after years of Scrabble/WWF.

Way better if playing 15-20 games at once as everyone on different time zones from all over the world. It is too slow waiting for one person to move if they have up to 5 days to make their move. Very fun and challenging!

This app is the standard Scrabble game. The interface is simple and nice, but the problem is that when my phone which has the Android version of this app, tells me it is my turn, I have to close the Windows 8 App and re-open it to see that it is my turn. Even after a couple hours when it decides to let it be my turn, I get no notifications of any kind. No ding, pop up, nothing. I sent two emails for support. I didn't even get an automated e-mailer message saying that the got my message. Grr

Love this app. Wish that there was a shorter time limit for people to play instead of having to wait a few days for them to move. Also. I wish that the use of words that have no definition should not be allowed. I understand it is scrabble but come on. Other than that its great😉

Friends using other platforms like android or iOS, no problem. Fun to play on my new surface and phone and the games all stay in synch.

This app takes Words With Friends outside and beats it to a living pulp.

A well thought out App, Words by Post for Windows 8 and Windows Phone plays great - and because it's cross platform (iOS & Android) you can play with anyone. Standard dictionary, good game board; this App plays well and is stable on all platforms. The UI is clean & obvious with minimal "distractions".
