How to install Text Express: Word Adventure APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download Text Express: Word Adventure APK file from ApkClean, then follow these steps:
Update Phone Settings
Go to your phone Settings page
Tap Security or Applications (varies with device)
Check the Unknown Sources box
Confirm with OK
Go to Downloads
Open Downloads on your device by going to My Files or Files
Tap the APK file you downloaded (com.gamehouse.tx-v38.0.0-ApkClean.apk)
Tap Install when prompted, the APK file you downloaded will be installed on your device.
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading). As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

4 ★Really enjoying this game so far! A lot of fun modes to keep it interesting, and I like that the game lets you choose what you're more interested in- the story or collectables. Also looks like it has a nice range of accessability options if needed. I also very much enjoy the dictionary being an available tool to help with vocabulary-though a word I'm confused by the exclusion of is 'Dane', referring to a person from or descended from people of Denmark. An odd choice, I think.
5 ★I. Love. This. Game. Ads & purchases are available but not required to fully enjoy. I subscribed ($3/wk) just to support the game. The xp system is very well-balanced, allowing progression without speeding you through content, while still allowing you to play as much as you want. At lvl 20 you unlock fantastic daily & weekly tasks.The seasonal events give out lots of bonuses, though I wish the rewards were tiered. My big complaint is how very white the majority of the cast is. For real. WHY???
4 ★this game is incredible. the graphics are adorable they remind me of wizard 101. the story is great so far (I only just finished fixing the locomotive). the puzzles start out easy and get more challenging as the levels progress. no ads unless you want to watch rewarded ads. I LOVE it. the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I can see the coin system getting tedious after a while after upgrading your letters a few times as it isn't terribly easy to accumulate coins.
5 ★By far one of the best and most fair games I've ever played. I've been making steady progress without spending a dime on it, which leaves me happy to watch ads for an extra boost to support the game. Staff is responsive whenever I've reported any kind of issue or bug. And of course it's extremely fun! The fact I can keep playing after I empty my XP wallet has been great, and I love collecting items and the story is pretty good for a mobile game.
4 ★I seem to have played until I have no main quests to play, so I'll be waiting for more updates! Unfortunately, I ran into a few glitches that forced me to reset the game. While evacuating Cascada Village, the screen went black, no background animations played, and any move I made left tracks on the screen. It seemed to be fixed after resetting, but on the occasion I'd still see the overworld glitch with assets not quite loaded in. These also were fixed by resetting, though.
5 ★Seriously, HANDS DOWN the best word game out there! Instead of mindlessly completing word puzzles, this game really makes you feel like you're working towards something. I love how the ads are 100% optional, like you don't have to wait hours to play again if you choose not to watch them. I honestly don't mind the ads, because they're there to help me get to my goal sooner. The graphics and story are beyond any game out there! And it doesn't even slow down my ph! Seriously give it a try!
5 ★I cannot express how much I love this game. Wonderful story. Wonderfully balanced. Beautiful graphics. I love every mechanic in this game! You can play as much as you want as there's no energy system (just exp that regens). There are side and story challenges and it's up to you how you play! The levels aren't the same, but are similar enough that you begin to make a connection between words. I love the dictionary feature! It even counts the words you find that aren't in the puzzle!
5 ★Genuinely the best word game I've ever played. There's multiple modes so you're not just doing the same thing over and over again, lots of collectibles and extra things to do, no intrusive ads (only ads you can opt into, if you want), and an actual storyline to keep it interesting. It's just the sort of game I've been looking for! It's definitely worth checking out if you want a fun word game without ads every three levels!
3 ★Edit:story progression is EXTREMELY slow. The story is what attracted me to even download the game. Ive honestly forgotten the main plot since you only get tidbits of it with each new plotpoint is hidden behind HOURS of puzzles. I really wish they would get rid of having to play puzzles to travel to locations already unlocked. I know you can use coins to skip that, but you shouldn't have to. With most locations having their own mini games, you already have to play for a few hours as it is.
3 ★cool game so far, though sometimes the ads don't load (black screen with audio), and occasionally the game script is off. Edit: had to lower to three stars because frequently, when I'd try to watch an ad for an extra reward, it claims the internet "disconnected", the game crashes, and it completely RESETS all progress on that task. This seems like a convenient way for the game to delete progress while getting the user to watch extra ads...
4 ★My favorite word game so far! I love the story, all the different game modes and the simple fact that there is no energy system. I will say however that there are 2 things that I don't like about the game. The first of which is the long, unskippable animations. And the fact that even making a word that you made before restarts the streak. Sometimes I'm genuinly not sure if I made a word or not and I don't want to go to the dictionary and search everytime I want to check.
5 ★Meh. It's alright so far, but.... I can't listen to my podcasts, music, or anything else in the background. Will automatically shut it off once I start to play which makes it a little annoying. Ads are fine, that's when I can actually play my podcasts or music. Edit: thanks a bunch for updating and making this a better experience!
