I ran the game today and tried to continue from my previous save (I was at Level 8). Game kept crashing after completing a couple of words. I verified the integrity of game files, reinstalled the game, and even tried starting the game anew thinking it might be a problem with the save file. But the problem persists. I don't think my gaming PC is the problem. It has Windows 10, Radeon RX Vega64 (with up-to-date drivers), i7 5820K CPU, and 128 GB RAM....

I've scored 25,254 as shown on the achievements list but the steam achievement for scoring 25K did not unlock.. how sad.. other than that I was having fun playing.
