HIDDEN COSTS

This app only allows you to make a brief start on the puzzles and then blocks further progress unless you pay money. Quite sneaky and certainly not transparent. Will be deleting it promptly.

Misleading

Doesn’t tell you that after three puzzles you have to buy more

Great fun

Different levels of difficulty, I was sorry when I finished them all.
YIYet Another Ian

Great addition to my daily brain training

I had just reset all 500 crossword puzzles from the ‘Crossword’ collection. Now I have these as well so very happy. Tbh, I started the others 4 years ago, so cannot remember most of them. Win-Win 🤣🤣
