Cryptogram Word Puzzle
Play the role of a cryptographer tasked with the challenge of breaking an encrypted quote. To play, you must deduce the one-to-one letter substitution to decode the encrypted phrase by some famous (or infamous) author. While the object of the game is simple, figuring out the solution can often be difficult. Keep at it and perseverance will pay off.
With regular play, we believe you can increase your mental focus, concentration, patience and logical deduction skills, all while learning popular quotes and having fun. If you’ve never tried a Cryptogram before, the first few games may leave you puzzled, but once you get the hang of it your solve time will decrease and you might just find yourself hooked!
To start you off, we have included an abundance of quotes from a wide variety of historical and contemporary figures, and you can download additional puzzle packs from inside the game whenever you want more. Check back often, as the puzzle library is always undergoing growth. We offer standard-sized puzzle packs of 50 quotes and jumbo packs for the voracious player, which offers 150 puzzles all at once for a reduced cost. Collect them all!

Ok. I can't get used to the letters being above the spaces instead of below and the color contrast isn't great.
have truly enjoyed this puzzle. It requires 0 perm. doesn't intrude & easy to use controls. 5* deserved. Sandra
why the eff is the keyboard not qwerty??? graphics and UI relatively ok i guess
In the developer's replies to comments, I have seen two complete lies and too many backlash replies to feeling insulted. So in the developer reply to Loren T. about a refund for undelivered goods...His or her complaint was sound truth. Hands down. No verbal/written giveaways. So that customer actually was honest about the problem. Then...Developer stomps in with immediate lie. He says twice that he's issued a refund. That word would not have been used once no less twice. Forensic analysis, Deception Psych.
I will say that as developers of a game you would understand the frustration of ads that are SO intrusive and irritating. I know the need for them but until some agreement comes as to what the ads THINK they're doing, by trying to get our attention, think again. As in this instance I immediately uninstall.
This game has every feature a cryptogram game should have. Easy to comprehend different levels of difficulty and no words partially given to make it too easy. Although you can buy hints if you want and they do start you off with several Free hints , but it's just not started off like some of the other games with too many letters already put into the word which in my opinion makes it not challenging at all!
Carefully thought out with a considerable amount of categories! Many features other games of this type fail to provide. Overall satisfying... I give it 5 colossal stars! Keep 'em coming - I'm on the lookout for your games.
Love this game. Great puzzles come with regular game and a ton of others are available for only a buck! I'll never be bored in the bathroom again!!!
Love love love this game. It's great! It's challenging and fun. But the pop-ups between are terrible. Now the ads are full screen with sound, and can't be skipped over, they take control of your phone's experience for 30 full seconds. I love you guys, but you're killing me!! Woulda been 5 stars.... Further play...im more critical...need more puzzles and there's waay too many billy graham and other evangelists' quotes. No thank you. Uninstalled.
Just downloaded app and it will not open. When i press on instructions there is no arrow key or way for me to get back to main screen. If i press on anything else I can not get back to main menu either. Ugh 😡😲😔
PERFECTLY executed ..I will use this every chance I get!
I really love these types of puzzles... I'll definitely be playing this one a lot.
Great game, I will use it every day
needs to have unlimited hints and not have to buy them
I really enjoyed this puzzle.
Like the game just wish you could chg background colors and make font larger.
Addicting!!!
I purchased a hint pack but it was not added to my account.. to date still no refund!!!!
The best!!
Absolutely addictive
Love it play it everyday
Would be nice to at least have a friendlier keyboard. AND not keep landing on already filled in letters.
Thumbs up to the developer .
Good puzzles some were easy and some you needed brain cells to solve
Works sublimely
Highly satisfied..... :-)
Loved it awesome game....
Love it...works perfectly..can't stop it's sooo addicting!
Good design. I just wish it was harder. Unfortunately, a lot of these puzzles show one of the words in the puzzle at the beginning, just after the author's name. I wish that word wasn't there. There should be more options in the setting, specifically a difficulty level. Also, the ads are a bit flashy and distracting. But other than that, the design is great. Just make it a little harder for me please, then I will gladly give you five stars. :)
Nonstandard keyboard. Terrible colours with no way to change them. Letters above the blanks. Should be below. Top row and bottom row way too close together. Any one of these would warrant a rating of 0. True rating would be more like -4
