Very good selection
A great app with a fine selection of games. I don’t play them all, preferring crosswords wordy and the like. However of late some of the adverts within the games are getting longer and longer and is beginning to a bit of a joke! For example when I started using the app the adverts played out over about 30 seconds. The length of the adverts have risen in time to a point where not only they are approaching 2 minutes long,they are boring and I tend to switch off. Not only the length of time has increased to exit X has got smaller and smaller almost to a point where you cannot see it! It wouldn’t be so bad but on occasions it can take upto 10 hits to register and each time you miss you are taken back a screen to see part of the advert, now that is getting beyond a joke. Come on game writers/owners, if you think that getting people to watch an advert over long periods of time will encourage to download the game I think you are being illusory. Bear in mind there are I am sure many who have already downloaded a game and are forced to watch the add! I think extending the times will be counter productive, please go back to a simple short time advert
I have given the app 5 stars as I think it rates that, but I would only give the adds 1 star as they are going over the top timewiseShow lessMikew1949

Thanks for your feedback. We appreciate ads can be a little frustrating but they support us in regularly bringing new features and content to the game. We limit how often ads are shown and ensure that they can always be skipped. Please refer to the in-game help for more information on how you can disable ads or report ads that are not allowing you to skip correctly.Great app but…
A great app and I would give it all 5 stars but I find three issues that just make me not do so. The first one drives me bonkers the most. If my iPhone goes to sleep, if I put it into sleep using the side button, or if I plug it in then more often than not the app starts from the logo again (even though it was never closed) and I have to hunt down the puzzle that was in progress to resume it. The second is I don’t understand why every single time the app thinks it is restarting and does the logo I have to see the in-app notifications. Again. As in you acknowledge them and they are right back there in your face the next time. There should be a way to silence each daily notification after you have read it. The last one is that some puzzles do have more than one solution. It’s very rare but they do occasionally pop up. Almost always it’s a picture sweep and involves two squares on an edge that need to be swapped between filled and empty. And that’s all that the required change is. Does not correct the number of colored squares for any number at all, just a “fill this one instead of that.” Despite those issues you have an absolutely fantastic app.
Oops. I almost forgot to add that it would be extremely helpful, especially for those of us with vision issues, if we could zoom EVERY puzzle. It’s extremely hard to read the picture cross numbers in some cases and that’s just one example.Show lessclarkalex

Thanks for your feedback. Unfortunately, iOS may automatically close apps while they're in the background of your device, so we are unable to prevent this, however the suggestions section of the game includes an unfinished puzzle option to help find these puzzles again. We're sorry to hear you've had a problem with notifications and some Picture Sweep puzzles. Please contact us via the in game help or at support@puzzling.com so that we can assist you and investigate the alternative puzzle solutions.Ads
I have been playing and enjoying some of the puzzles on this page for some years. Today I have played one game, then an ad came up on my screen, 60 seconds for one ad! Seeing that I closed the page down. I am fed up with seeing ads on games increasing in length all the time. Watching an ad like that takes longer than playing a game.,Show lessMitzmum
Great mix of puzzles, so-so interface
If you like puzzles, this is a great app, and you can pay to get rid of ads and have unlimited play. However, interface is cumbersome on several puzzles. For example: you can’t enter a pencil or pen number into multiple boxes in Sudoku without having to select the number every time (please allow a long press on a pencil/pen number to lock the number for entry until another number is selected!); there is no option to change highlighting color in sudoku to make it easier to see; no option to auto-advance to the next clue in crossword; crossword clues are sometimes difficult because they aren’t really correct (“Too, as well” = else, “Connoisseur” = maestro, “Trimmed to the bone” = pared); some picture cross (color) puzzles are difficult to read and enter due to small size, other minor things. Also every time you open the app it shows the same notifications which must be cleared. Hopefully all this is addressed in the next version! I haven’t experienced the crashing issues many other people reported, so that’s good! Overall a fun app and there is probably something in it for everyone.Show lessSciGuyBowTie

Have been playing on a daily basis for a long time and really enjoy the different puzzles. The game lately seem very unstable, usually after doing one or two puzzles the app becomes very stuttery and delayed response when tapping the screen.Caveman456_2000
Great brain games
This app has a great variety of games and puzzles. The difficulty levels are challenging but still fun, and the easy levels are perfect for my 10 and 7 year olds. I start my day with this app every day.
(Thank you for fixing the issue with obtaining tokens)LanaSossity
