I can't even play this game nor open it! Keeps saying internal service error. Wish I could give 0 stars! Glad I used free coins to purchase because I would be very upset to have spent real money on this crap!

    Like the title says, this is the best Wheel game I've ever played, going all the way back to PC in the first 80s. Everything about this is wonderful. I love the spinning mechanism and how you can speed through your AI opponent turns. Also, I think this is the only Wheel game that allows you to play on classic stages from the 80's,90's,00's,10's. If you are looking for a Wheel game that plays great and really feels like the show, this is it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Fun watching animated you become champion.
    Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    My score to date is over one million dollars giving you an idea of how much I have played the game in a short time. The game is a great time passer and becomes addictive. You can play it alone or with your facebook friends. If you're a numskull like me the game will wait for you to catch up and is fairly forgiving while you're learning the finer points of figuring out the clues. One down side - no Vanna White to flip letters. However, the animated Pat does a fine job and the fellow contestants are fun and constantly changing. You will be allowed to create an animated character of yourself and mine looks frighteningly familiar. Good fun for folks who like to play games while watching TV in the evening.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Too many issues!
    Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    So glad I had free amazon coins to buy this app. If I had spent money on it I would have been extremely upset. This game has way too much wrong with it. I downloaded it on my galaxy s4 and started one game playing against the computer. After a couple minutes it closed out with an error message of "unfortunately wheel of fortune has stopped". So I opened it back up and tried to create an account to play against real people and it tells me I have to connect to a network to create an account. I am connected to my wifi and even if that wasn't working at the time (it was, I checked) it would have worked with my data. So decided to play against the computer again and it brought up my previous game (which I was surprised to see). Continued that game and it closed out on me with the same error I think 4 more times! Wow! I have never had these issues with any other app. Also, aside from the errors, there is no way to turn off the background music with this game. I had to just turn my volume all the way down. There should be some way to adjust those settings, but there isnt. Overall, I would definitely not recommend this game because of the previously mentioned issues and also because when you play the computer it's too easy to win because the computer contestants aren't very believable with their letter guesses.

    3.0 out of 5 stars I like the concept, but...
    Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    I've been wanting to buy this game for a long time and finally broke down since I'm going on a 20-hour car ride next week. My thought was I'll get more for my buck spent on this than I will get from the multiple $1.49 fountain drinks I'll buy to help keep me awake during my turns to drive, so why not? After sitting here playing it for 30 minutes I'm not so sure my thinking was accurate.

    It's nice that the game is similar to the actually TV show but I could REALLY do without the wait time for the other players to spin. And, as another reviewer said, there's little concern one of the other contestants will beat me as they seem to guess inappropriate letters. I just end up waiting for my turn to come around again so I can win once I know what the puzzle is. Along with that, the game periodically stops working and does a force close on my Galaxy 10 with Kitkat. I haven't been able to determine a rhyme or reason to it as I'll make it through some games and think I'm in the clear when it will suddenly happen again. When I go back in, I sometimes need to replay the round, sometimes I don't. Sometimes it's even the same puzzle, sometimes it's not.

    All in all, the only challenge is seeing how long it takes me to solve the puzzle. The game is keeping me entertained for now but I'm pretty sure I'll be bored with it after a week or two, which is sad since I love Wheel of Fortune. Unfortunately, I have to say that I'm glad I only paid 99¢ for it. On the other hand, I've spent 99¢ on worse things...

    5.0 out of 5 stars I love it!

    Fantastic application! The game has last me a very long time of endless playing. I like being able to unlock different generations of the game show's stage setup/look. There are some in-game add-ons that you can purchase (I bought a few) to spice up the game too. Each upgrade you can buy has a theme like Monsters and Zombies or Night Out and include around 200+ phrases/words and items to dress your character in. I think it would have been nicer if the upgrades were free and just unlockable through game play but they aren't too expensive, about 99¢, so I can't complain too much. Overall this is extremely worth the 2 bucks and if you like the show like I do you'll think this game's AMAZING!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Game
    Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    Another fun game! I like the fact that if you wish to speed up the "solo player" game, you can just touch the arrows on the lower left of the Kindle screen and this cuts the spinning and guessing time of your opponents. It also cuts the time Pat Sajak explains the rules (which you will already know if you've ever watched the game on TV or have played your first game on this device). It doesn't affect the game but moves it along faster. I do seem to win a great deal though so I am going to try playing a full opponent game where I will make their guesses for them and see if I still win.

    This game is superb, highly entertaining and everything is clear and easy to understand. Being able to dress the character and
    choose a new hairstyle or a hat for the character to wear is really good,pleasing, and appealing. Playing this game is as if you are actually there yourself and everything is friendly and professional. The graphics are really good,colourful, and the
    experience of playing this game is a very nice experience. I would highly recommend this game to anyone who likes and respects decent fun.
