Its pretty good one. It would be great, if after entering the right words, it should be confirm ed by some animation. Here you can only know which are the wrong ones after completing the puzzle.
Works well but there are some very dubious clues and I've come across a few where the clue is just wrong - mainly related to 1980s pop. What a shame, it'd be a good game if they'd done their homework properly.
If there are higher levels, how do I find them?
Many hints do not mean what they think they do. Not in US or UK English. You just get frustrated.
Good to be able to choose how easy or hard a puzzle you feel like.
The long commercials are way too long. Some of the clues are misleading and/or erroneous ... e.g. George ___, a baseball trainer? Please. He was a football coach.
It's a good fun game. But the ads are sometimes kind of annoying.
Very good crosswords that make me think and sometimes unusual. Neat bit of fun
There are many challenges to your games. But too many ads!
enjoy it alot, now and then a mistake but very seldom, I am keeping on playing
This is a crossword game, why does it need access to my photos and files?
excellent. lots of hours logged and a good brain teaser
Would be better with UK questions but still enjoyable
This is one of the best crossword app
Why does it need to have permission to my images?
Ive been doing this some time now and its great app,
Have loved this crossword for quite some time now.
Fun and educational !!
Enjoy the different levels
Somewhat too easy .
Sometimes some misleading clues
Is just different than other crosswords.
Easy to use.
Love it
This app is absolutely brilliant for first timers or beginners. My only reservation is that you don't get enough free coins as a first time user, meaning once you've used the small amount you do get, you will have to use the in-app purchase. That being said it's still a mint app give it a try you never know.
I really enjoy this app, but there are a few issues with some of the clues not making logical or grammatical sense with the answer. Thankfully I have been able to figure all of them out so far. A bit more proofing would be a good thing, but overall a decent crossword app.
I love this app! It is one of the few that I stay with. It isn't as ad crazy as some apps and I appreciate that it is only mildly filled with earmning coins, or freedoms to the next puzzle. I don't want fluffy I just want to do crossword puzzles! The downside, it does use the same clues/answers over & over. Too many Roman numerals, and foreign word translate clues. There are so many words in English, why so many clues for French & German words?!
Some truly, truly bizzare puzzle answers. Definitely not remotely American based, not even British Isles based clues and answers. Lots of French, German words, lots of abbreviations. The game play is very well done. Easy to use. The ads are not annoying enough to make one pay to play. I would be more likely to pay if the clues and words were more well thought out.
Occasionally I think the clues are written by someone in the British Isles. Clues can be exceedingly generic and sometimes archaic. On the whole, gaining 18 coins per completed game allows one to use clues as needed for obscure questions.
The occasional bad clue doesn't detract from a reasonable crossword game, but what does is that auto-generated puzzles are limited to 8x8. Still, a decent game that doesn't force the player to sit through the optional ads.
