### 3/5 — Some clever some frustrating

*2024-12-22*

Some of the riddles don't make sense. For example, 
Q: "what needs to be taken from you before you have it?"
A: "Picture"

Pictures are taken "of" you not "from". A restaurant "Order" would be a better answer. Just not the most thoughtful.

### 5/5 — Very Enjoyable, but.....

*2016-08-23*

August 23 can't be completed. Letter that is needed not in choices!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2015-02-04, version 1.4.0*

Just like the first one, just another year of great new riddles!

### 5/5 — Best Riddle App!

### 3/5 — Fun

*2014-01-28, version 1.3.1*

Most of the riddles are able to be thought through. A few don't make sense, but it's still great.

### 4/5 — Ms

*2013-11-20, version 1.3.1*

Great app. Some clues a bit obscure but that's the challenge. Enjoy this every morning!

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2013-11-08, version 1.3.1*

Riddles are sufficiently difficult and consistently logical.  More than can be said of other riddle oriented games.  Truly enjoyable.

### 5/5 — Here we go again!

*2013-11-01, version 1.3.1*

Another awesome game. Challenging, clever riddles that make the moment you crack them so much more rewarding than most games on the app store. Once completed will defo get the third game. Cant recommend enough.

### 5/5 — First thing I do every day

*2013-10-31*

Glad to see a new version of the daily riddle app.

I hope there will be an update soon, the clock and calendar are ticking away.......
