Fun game

Lots of fun - just like Taboo! I really like that it keeps score. Only drawback is - it needs a pause button in case things need to b stopped for some reason. Also the creators need spell check "helmlet" for example (ran across a few spelling errors.

Awesome

Its the real thing without the mess of cards!!

Excellent game

There are thousands of iPhone games in the app store that are designed for one player. But if you want a game for parties and family gatherings, Word Kinshi is the way to go. I don’t know how big the word catalogue is, but I played through the game a few times, and didn’t notice any repeated words. The graphics for the game are excellent and obviously a lot of thought went into them. I absolutely love this game and I think everyone should go and buy it right now. If you need a quick and fun game for parties, this is definitely the way to go.

Repeats words

The idea of the game is great. But they repeat the same words and it gets old fast. Not worth the 99cents. They need to update their 20 words!! Also, Id like more time on the timer.

AppReviewer

Not a very good execution of the popular game. The game of Taboo is lots of fun, but this version falls well short. There are other versions in the app store that do a much better job. You cannot edit settings in this game either. This version is not worth 99 cents.

Good fun app

Just like the real taboo game but with a cool cosmetic design. Lots of words. Totally fun game and is totally worth the price!

Fun app

Super fun app, I was playing this with my friends when we were moving, had a blast, just like the real game!

Crashes

I bought this app and it crashes on me all the time, freezes up before it crashes. I deleted this one and bought another Taboo game from the app store, which works perfectly. Too bad I cant get a refund for this.

Awesome!!

Bought this for my iPad when @ a party with other taboo finatics... We played it for three hours, and no repeat words! The built in timer was great! Lots of fun... Worth the money easily!!

Sweet app!

Good graphics, good but not-distracting sound effects, lots of non-repetitive words (but the more the better, thats why Im looking forward to the updates promised). It can use a few minor improvements in future updates as well but is definitely worth the 99 cents. Great fun overall! Most importantly it never crashes or freezes. You should get it if you love Taboo!

Great update

I love the new look and new cards, a good upgrade to an already great game!

cool game

This is just like Taboo, great game and and its recently updated with more words. Love the look and feel and the reply value!

Great game

I spent hours playing this with friends, very neat game, totally worth it!

Sweet update

Love the new look, and the new cards are pretty funny as well.

fun game

very fun, and it looks good as well. Well worth the price :)

Needs work

Very true to taboo, but repeating words ruined the game. We got repeating words EVERY game allowing teams to score up to 10 points in one turn. Please fix this problem!

Simple and Fun

This is a great game to play on a car trip. It could use an option to configure the per-round time. O well, 5 stars anyway for bringing my favorite game to the iPhone.

Awesome game

Very fun, loyal to the original game. Me and my friends had a blast playing this.

iPad support?????

Requires IOS 4.0 or later but you dont support iPad???? I blame myself for not reading that before purchasing, but why support only IOS 4.0 or later and not iPad? Any upgrades coming? Id love to play the game! UPDATE: Thanks for the latest update that lets the game play on iPad AND OS 3.0. This is GREAT!

Fix the repeating words but great game still

My friends and I played for over an hour and some rounds were all repeat words. It happened for both teams but kinda killed the fun of the game. Other than that its a good supplement for taboo when youve memorized all those cards. Some of the updates i would suggest are: -Wish there was a way to pause the game during a round. -Or to go back to a saved game, the app crashed once and we lost the old scores and had to start over from 0 - be able to give team names, instead of team A and B
