I haven't had trouble getting 2 stars on a few levels -- 509, 512, 513, 568, 600 and 622, but not able to get 3 stars on any of those yet without using helpers (just found out about those today after playing all the way to level 920!)
Thanks -- will lookout for Barney! One time I also got about 70 or 80 moves on one level. Really easy to get 3 stars then. Was that a software error or is this some kind of hidden bonus that comes up from time to time? Never happened again for me.
I have 3 stars on every level from 1 to 920 except levels 509, 512, 513, 568, 600 and 622 (2 stars for all those) I can't recall Vampire Barney but seem to remember some gold tiles a long time ago but I have played 1000s of times and not seen them recently, despite having 3 stars from 321 to 365. Are the gold tiles…
I really dislike autoshuffle it autoshuffles even when valid words are there I have been fast enough to beat autoshuffle, spell the word and then get letters hanging halfway into their positions
