Update: I got iOS8 and rebooted a couple of times and now the game is working fine for me and 3 other friends. I love it! Way better than scrabble or WWF. A couple of very minor quirks occur occasionally but no more than WWF.
Update 10.10.14
The issues I encounter still, weeks after my above review include:
1.) Incorrect syllable counts for points. I played a four syllable word and got credit for 2.
2.) My friends and I receive several Game Center banners that dont apply. We get the same banners every game, multiple times, including First Word and Big Spender (or something like that).
3.) When the ? Space is used, the total score for the word isnt the score actually given for the word. Perhaps this is intentional given the nature of the square but if so, dont display the score for the word.
4.) The notification bubble seems to only be able to show 2 regardless how many actual moves I have waiting.
I still enjoy the game, even with the above annoyances but I hope the developer will live up to their own name and improve things.
