*2024-11-10*

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2024-05-30*

Hello this is a fellow calm game puzzle player! I love sudoku and other games, but this is my absolute favorite game ever!! All of the frame sets, are just a good idea 👍 this and it warns you before an add so adds don’t Jump-scare you (happens to me a lot in other games) I know it sounds unbelievable that there is actually a good game out there but this is it! The game is perfect as it is and please don’t change anything about it!!! Perfect midnight game and no consent “Do you like our game?” Pop ups!! 10000/10 game, completely addictive and fun and challenging and free!!! 🆓 But here is one thing you can pay money for tokens all they do is different frames so don’t waste your money!

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2024-03-09*

I am but a child, and even I have to think, guess, and explore new options in this game! I recommend it for all ages. This game will make you guess so much you might as well have a party wen you finish a level hard. So this game is worth downloading! I do have an open imagination, and this game will question the reality in your ideas! It’s perfect for a 10 minute break!

### 1/5 — Recent update breaks everything

*2023-12-03*

The most recent update has made basic functionality no longer work

**Developer response:** Hello CJ, are you still having the problem? Do you have the latest version?

### 1/5 — Premium model broke the app

*2023-10-29*

I’m a huge fan of this puzzle. I own several, I regularly give copies of it away, and I’ve gotten a bunch of my friends hooked on the app. This is one of the few habits I’ve kept for years.

This morning the app completely froze on a pop-up after solving a puzzle. Watch an ad or buy premium to continue? Okay, I’ll buy premium. I want to support the developers. The pop-up didn’t go away. I killed the app. I have requests to buy premium all over the app without an option to restore my purchase.

I’m all for some monetization and I’m happy to support with paid upgrades. The social contract there requires the purchase to actually work. This is beyond infuriating.

### 5/5 — Defeats Time and Space

*2022-11-20*

No longer do I have to haul my wooden A-Puzzle-A-Day from place to place, like some Neanderthal puzzle solver, to get the incomparably pure and simple joy that comes from solving another calendar day. Not must I maintain a paper scorecard, where the first of the month is always Sunday, to track progress on the collect-them-all destiny that awaits us all. Best enjoyed with morning coffee or tea, APAD is the most wholesome way to start the day.
