### 2/5 — U.s. Capitals

*2026-08-22, version 5.0.5*

HELENA is the capital of Montane —- not BUTTE

### 5/5 — Puzzles

*2026-06-21, version 5.0.5*

Love it, just when you think you have it right it’s not quite accurate

### 4/5 — Showcase pack

*2026-04-09, version 5.0.5*

Good variety of subjects.

### 4/5 — Jigsaw pack

*2026-03-20, version 5.0.5*

Jigsaw puzzles are always fun. I do wish it didn’t take 100 points to show the borders, though.

### 4/5 — Actually 4.5 Stars

*2026-03-11, version 5.0.5*

I am really enjoying this game. Makes me think. My only disappointment is that I have Bonza and Bonza Planet and have found some duplicate puzzles. Other than that, I love the game. Some puzzles are very easy but most take some effort.

### 2/5 — Ads too long and too frequent

*2025-12-07, version 5.0.5*

I spend more time looking at ads for things I don’t want than I spend playing.

### 5/5 — Science

*2025-11-29, version 5.0.5*

Science is always interesting and educational. More of this, please.

### 2/5 — Making me pay again to remove ads

*2025-10-17, version 5.0.5*

Several years ago I purchased the Remove Ads option. The ads are back and it wants me to pay again. Restore purchases doesn’t fix it and the Support link is broken.

### 5/5 — Bonza planet word and picture puzzles

*2025-10-07, version 5.0.5*

An excellent distraction while sitting in the hospital emergency room while they test me for toxins, etc.

### 5/5 — Really fun game

*2025-09-10, version 5.0.5*

I just downloaded this game and played the first pack, it was lot of challenging amusement. I thought it is a really good game.
