    Addicting

    Definitely addicted to this game. Fun and passes the time when you're bored. Keeps your brain sharp for sure! I just wish there was a more clear way to EARN tokens! If you finish some puzzles you'll earn some but if you finish another puzzle, even flawlessly and fast, you don't earn any. I'd like to know how you specifically "earn" these tokens. I've looked in the FAQ and it doesn't answer my question. You need tokens to move on through the boards. If you're not earning the tokens to move on then you have to buy them if you want to continue. Well, I'm not THAT addicted! You guys are making money on all of those ads we are forced to watch, and I really don't mind watching them, I actually click a few. So do you really need to charge us for tokens to continue on in a game that you are already making money on? Come on....I'm sure you want people to keep playing this game!

    Yes, this app is good

    Updated review: A few minutes ago I looked up this app in App Store for the express purpose of submitting a positive review because I felt/feel it’s deserved. *Afterward* I looked at recent reviews about this app crashing & am both surprised & suspicious of these complaints. Therefore, I am updating my review to say this: For what it’s worth, I’ve had ZERO probs. Original review: I’ve had an ad-free version of this app for over a year, & thoroughly enjoy it. Buying any tokens or coins stops ads, & it’s worth the price. As version history indicates, puzzles are frequently added. Though I have tokens & coins, I still occasionally buy one or another from devs simply to show support to them for this app I find so enjoyable. 2 things to know: 1) If you’ve not completed all the puzzles, a free one is unlocked daily at midnight; completion results in bonus tokens & coins. 2) A free one-word-solution bonus puzzle (top R of screen) is offered daily, even after you’ve completed all regular puzzles. Though I’ve finished all the reg puzzles, I still open this app daily for this bonus puzzle to get free tokens & coins I’ll use when more puzzles are (frequently) released. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

    I really enjoy these types of games; this one isn't any exception. It is fun and it plays really fast. I will continue to play often. This is a wonderful game and it is most enjoyable. This game is relaxing and I just can not stop playing it; I really hope extra levels are added soon because I am almost at the end. I am really glad that they add more levels and I continue to hope that more will be added. This is my favorite game and I love when additional levels are added. I just wish that they would more than two at a time; because I do them all at one time then I have to wait for more. Keep adding more levels I enjoy this game greatly. My favorite game had some more levels added; bravo. I can't wait to solve them. More levels makes my world happy; I love this game, it keeps your mind thinking. My favorite game added a few more puzzles; I would always like this game. Out of all the games I play, this is my favorite and I will always play this game. My all time favorite. I love this game; every update makes me enjoy it more and more. I really wish that they would release more than two rounds at a time.

    Helping me recover!

    I love this game! I used to play all kinds of word games, constantly. And I was great at them. Then I suffered a severe brain stem stroke and one of the side effects/problems was that I am always saying the wrong word, or have trouble trying to find the word I want or need to use. And my word games were no more. But as I started to recover a bit my dr encouraged me to begin playing them again, to start with simple children games and work my way up. Playing this game helps my brain to find the right words. To spell them properly, to associate the words with certain subjects. So not only is this fun, it’s a great tool to use for neurological issues that people with cognitive problems have.

    Seems to be fine now. HOW TO REINSTALL-AD LOCK OUT

    Really can work your brain and still have fun! Looks easier than it is! ....................UPDATE..................HAD TO REINSTALL after getting an "ad" and being told that it's address was no good, so I was locked on to a black screen, unable to back out, and I had to exit completely. I was't able to get back to the game any other way. When I reinstalled game, I had to start at the VERY BEGINNING - VERY ANNOYING AND DISAPPOINTING. I like the game, and play daily as I find that it relaxes me, but it's quite discouraging to have go through levels again. UPDATE I'm back to really enjoying the game again - even after having to reinstall it. Like other players, I also wish that it was easier to earn tokens as this game is very addictive, and just being able to play only 1-2 puzzels at a time can be disappointing, especially when your brain gets in that mind set! LOL! Any why... I'm back to really enjoying this game and sharing it with my friends. Still having a blast!

    One Clue

    The concept of the puzzle is amazing! I love it, and by judicious playing and ad watching, I have no trouble collecting enough tokens to keep playing. My request is due to my personality and intelligence (or lack): is it possible for us to choose a difficulty level the way Sudoku has, i.e., easy, medium, or hard. I don’t find it relaxing to work on puzzles that get progressively harder each day. Also, the difficulty sometimes lies in the vocabulary or obscurity of the puzzle, but sometimes it lies in the visual acuity needed. The picture itself is tiny and there’s just no way for me to see something that’s almost visible. I’m older so it doesn’t matter whether I have bright light or not, whether I’m wearing glasses or not: I simply cannot focus well enough to notice that there is something teeny tiny in that blur that will be a clue. There is room on the screen for you to enlarge the photo, and that would be a big help. But such a great puzzle idea: hats off to you. Thanks!

    Review

    Love the challenge but it would be nice to be able to earn more tokens so you could complete more puzzles without having to buy so many tokens. The way the game is designed you MUST PURCHASE TOKENS or complete only one puzzle daily. Even if you share the information online, 95 - 98% or the rewards are coins. Having the coins when you are stumped is nice but for the most part they are not extremely important on most puzzles. It was always be nice to be able to enter letters in any space instead of having to start at the beginning. At the current time my iPad resets to Day 1 everyday which allows me to only earn 2 tokens. This started following the last update and I have tried to get the information to the makers but they hav made it difficult to correspond with tech support.

    Too many tokens to unlock puzzles

    Played the classic game. On 38 of the mix up. So excited y’all added more levels! the token counter only goes to 10. You can get 10 for the daily word and an extra 15 by watching a video—if it gets credited to your account. My puzzles require 50+ tokens to unlock one puzzle! You are only allowed a certain amount of tokens by watching videos. If I feel like watching videos for an hour, it should let me until I quit. Would be great to shuffle the letters without costing real money, tokens, or coins; way WAY too many ads. Not paying $3. Would consider $0.50 The game is fun. Either increase the amount of tokens for daily word or watching videos or decrease number of tokens needed to play



  • By Cheaperguy

    Relevance is the key...

    While I play almost every day I frequently am frustrated because the words are supposed to be from the picture. Take today’s word of the day for example: clues in the picture were silk flowers, styrofoam, string, petals, etc. The word? WELLNESS! How do you figure that out without clues and hints? I appreciate the opportunity to watch videos of other games to earn tokens and progress, however slowly, without spending money. Some people just can’t afford to use their money this way. Unfortunately, there are plenty of reminders (temptations?) that you can do so. Since I first wrote this review the option (for me) of watching videos for tokens has disappeared. I have not had one for a couple months. It could be the ios update. Why be so stingy with the tokens for solving the puzzle of the day? Do you not appreciate that we play your game, watch your ads and try to come in every day?

    Slow moving

    While I enjoy this game, it’s just so darn slow. I almost hate getting sticklers because you wait for the reveal, wait for it to show in the sticker pack, wait for the coins to be awarded...geesh can’t we pick up the pace here? Even after you finish a puzzle can’t the coins just ching ching in with my existing coins? Then you continue to the next puzzle but wait, have to click continue again because you’re bombarded with the Facebook post or twitter post (I personally don’t care about either). Also noticed misspellings...last time I looked the yogurt in my fridge is spelled YOGURT not YOGHURT. Maybe that’s how others spell it? Not to be ignorant I get it that there’s more than one way to spell a word...but I’ve noticed more than a few and had to end up using coins to figure out, what should have been, an easy puzzle.



  • By skizzzizizzz

    Great game that suffers from same old mobile game pitfalls

    Love the game itself, I’ve been really enjoying the puzzles. The hints and the coins are handled intuitively while still making the process of figuring out the word rewarding. Having to wait for the tokens is obnoxious, but I’m used to it. However, perhaps I’m just not far enough into the game and this changes, but only having the tokens recharge to 10 tokens while the cost to start a puzzle at just level 2 is over 10, that’s very poorly thought out. Sad, as I’ve really liked the game, and I don’t have the desire to buy tokens. The daily word bonuses are nice, but aren’t a solution. Neither are the daily gifts. Another way to earn tokens would be appreciated, otherwise I’m basically through with this game.



  • By DKARoberts

    Good game. Bad design.

    It’s a pet peeve when games are designed so that you HAVE to pay to proceed at the speed you want. Each crossword costs you “tokens” and they are hard to come by. Need to be more token rewards, a higher daily allowance or make the crosswords cost less tokens to play. I don’t expect everything to be free, but I do expect to be able to play more than 3-4 puzzles per day. That being said, when I have enough tokens to play, I love the game. Words are quirky sometimes, but it makes me laugh. Puzzles are a challenge but a doable challenge. I do find myself playing a bit everyday despite the challenges with tokens. (And for the developers - I would still play every day, even if I had access to more tokens. Please consider tweaking the design!)

    ONLY 38 LEVELS? AND FIX THE APP ISSUES ALREADY!

    Edit: So... This only goes to Level 38, and, that's it??? *deleting app now* PREVIOUS ISSUES STILL NOT ADDRESSED BY DEVELOPERS: There are two huge issues with this app that have not been fixed. First, I am sick and tired of being robbed of coins I've earned. When you watch videos for coins at least HALF - and some days it's 3/4 of the videos complete then crash and don't reward you the coins! I know for a fact I've watched them all the way through because they recycle the same ones and I know them by heart by now. This is absolute BS to not reward someone for watching a video when they did - just because the idiots who made the videos made them those annoying as hell interactive ones that crash all the time! Second - is it that hard to create words for the puzzles that ACTUALLY MATCH what the photo is about?! Some of the people who create them are clueless. They describe items in the pictures incorrectly, calling them something else or worse - they make something up that isn't even IN the photo or associated with it.

    No customer support

    I have tried to contact them through both the app and regular email but have never received a response from them. About three months back only my tokens stopped adding up with the amount that it says that it is supposed to be giving you but the coins are just fine. It usually only adds one token instead of the 5 or more tokens that it says that it is giving me and in some cases I am given nothing at all. I was trying to ask if it would delete my progress as well as all of my tokens and coins if I simply deleted the app and reinstalled it again seeing as how they have my Facebook information in case I have to get a new device and reinstall the game on the new device. They have never responded to either form of communication and the puzzle needs to be renamed because it is no longer a crossword puzzle.
