Great app
Thoroughly enjoy the variety of puzzles. Love the mathematical challenges as well as the word games. There are quite a few puzzle types that I have never seen before and the hint button or checking for errors button is a great way to learn and assist with solving the new and more difficult puzzles. Some of the help /explanations could use more visual examples to assist understanding on how to play. The ability to go back through the calendar to finish off puzzles from previous days and or select more of the types of puzzles I prefer is an extra feature.Show lesscrissy5879
Review
My personal opinion about the sudoku is that the 6 square puzzle is just too easy and to tell you the truth I’ve never come across one before. Maybe you’re aiming it at children but all the other puzzles are more advanced for that group. I liked your page better before you started adding and changing it about. Everyone likes something different and I’m just giving my personal opinion.Show lessBlondie. 48
App restored daily bonus options.
Update to my review below. The daily bonus options have been brought back. Thank you! My rating goes back up to 5*.
Until February you had the option to earn diamonds (required to unlock puzzles) by watching several ads every day. Since February 1st this option is no longer available. It may have been moved but if so I cannot find it. Where it used to be on the daily puzzle page there is now a useless bit of info. Without diamonds it is impossible to open puzzles. You can earn them but only by completing puzzle challenges. I am sure that this change is just to make you buy a subscription or buy diamonds with real money.
This app has dropped from 5 starts to 2 in my opinion. It is a great layout and was lots of fun before the change.
Please stop being greedy and bring back the option to earn diamonds and coins.Show lessMstruffle
Enjoyable - but at a cost
I was looking for puzzles that were just that and not some that were up against the clock, pitted you against others etc etc. That’s what you get, first and foremost, but it comes at a cost.
The coins you accumulate add up quite quickly; you use these for hints, solving clues and checking progress, but even in the last couple of weeks of playing I’ve accumulated over 10,000. Tokens, however, are harder to collect. I’m having to watch 10 videos a day just to gain a few extra so I can continue playing a full sheet of puzzles. If I’m not using coins I’d like the chance to TRADE them for tokens - but not at an extortionate cost.
Other reviewers have talked about the amount of battery this app eats up. Yes it does! I’ve checked I’m using the most up to date version of iOS, but the amount of battery this app eats is ridiculous.
Put a lot of this right, and I’ll raise the star rating.Show lessJakz58
Good selection of puzzles
Overall this is a good puzzle App with good range of puzzles. I find the crossword ones far too easy and therefore a bit boring. The colour and 15 grid puzzle cross puzzles are super but the grids and numbers are very small - it is hard to see the numbers and sometimes the colours are too similar in such tiny boxes - could do with the zoom facility. It is frustrating that I can amass a large total of coins from winning puzzles but I haven’t found a way to trade these in to buy tokens to allow me to play more puzzles without having to buy 5 tokens at a time by watching the short videos - generally one can only earn enough video tokens for the day to finish all the daily puzzles so access to the specials is limited. I feel the achievement sections to earn more tokens are a bit tough e.g having to complete a whole month of daily puzzles only to get 35 tokensShow lessSueShoreham
Token System Flawed
I love this app, definitely the best puzzle game I have tried. There’s a huge variety and instructions are clear for puzzles you are unfamiliar with. I think the goals are interesting too as it encourages you to try puzzles you might not gravitate to. But all puzzles must be unlocked with tokens and you simply don’t earn them at a great rate. You get 20 free per day and then can watch a certain amount of videos at 5 tokens per vid. It just about works to let me do the whole daily page. You can also earn tokens completing goals but the ratio is like completing 25 puzzles (spending 250 tokens) to get 20 back. Coins however you accumulate like crazy. I’ve not been playing long and have around 15,000 coins... but they can’t be exchanged for tokens? Think this would really improve the app. I know they make money from ads and should still keep the video feature but maybe add in the exchange as an option too.Show lessKyokoDreamer
Good variety puzzler
First up, I’ve subscribed because I love being able to keep playing. The variety of puzzles - word, number and logic - is great. I especially like the logic puzzles where you just have to keep thinking and the answer is there. The UI works pretty well. It does mean that crossword or word based puzzles are a bit easier because the letters are in front of you rather than a keyboard, but I still get satisfaction from solving them. If you find yourself enjoying the free version I recommend subscribing to remove ads and videos, well worth it.Show lessBorisMinor
Very challenging
Lots of fun while being challenging. Variety of puzzles is great.sfl27#
Love the app but it sometimes glitches
I love this app, however twice have I come across that at some point during the game when playing picture cross (with colours) a glitch appears where you can only add colours once and you have to shut down the app and restart it again to keep adding colours, but it will stop adding them each time. It’s not completely frozen though so you can switch between the colours that you want to use, but you just can’t apply them to the board. The first time it happened it only seemed to affect a certain part of the board but the second time it didn’t seem to matter where on the board you were trying to apply the colours. Please can you have a look at this bug.Show lessmarmstark
Battery drainer
The title is double-edged. Yes it’s fun to keep playing and has a good variety of puzzles. But it also eats power at an extraordinary rate, even when played against more graphic-intensive titles.
I can only assume this is because of its reliance on throwing ads at the player after every single puzzle, some of which cause the app to crash.
Also you access puzzles by paying 10 tokens each. You can only earn a maximum of 30 for consecutive logins and can earn more either by completing tasks which involve playing multiple puzzles (while paying tokens for each attempt). Or by watching tons of ads for 5 tokens apiece. You’ll complete all the easy tasks in the first week of play, and from then on you have to watch several 30 second ads to be able to do more than 3 puzzles a day.
Actually I’m changing my rating from 4 to 3 when I’m reminded how pathetic it is in ads vs game time and how poorly optimised it is with regard to battery usage.
Fun, but extortionate.Show lessSquealin Pete
