No fuss, simple and fun

The only game on my phone I play regularly. Help keeps my brain healthy and expands my vocabulary.

Privacy settings

Keeps asking me to update privacy settings which I’ve tried doing but won’t let me continue playing until I’ve done it. Tried deleting and reinstalling, too. What’s going on?

Always good but puzzling hints. What more could a puzzle addict want.

I do like working these puzzles. Some-I breeze through; others are more challenging. At times the clues are rather obscure but since I don't require perfection from myself, they are still fun. They are just puzzles--not a life's goal.
