### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-03-15, version 1.0.3*

Amazing!!! Very relaxing and addictive game. Good job devs!

### 5/5 — I love this game!

*2023-08-22, version 1.0.3*

Great challenging but doable game. No annoying ads either. I’ve made some of my own as well! Hopefully more puzzles are coming soon!!

### 2/5 — Great game but…

*2023-02-05, version 1.0.3*

I really like this game. I’ve played it all the way through multiple times. That being said, there are things I truly hate about it. First, how many times do I have to say Never when asked to review? I mean never means never, not every other board, isn’t that right? Second, no matter how many emails you get at the end, you never made more puzzles. What happened? You lose interest?

Hopefully now, it stops asking me for a stupid review!

### 5/5 — Great game for getting my mind working

*2021-09-26, version 1.0.3*

This game is great for a relaxing challenge. There’s no anxiety making timer. Some are easy and some are pretty hard but all of them make you look at things differently to solve. I Definitely enjoy this game.

### 5/5 — Lots of quick fun

*2020-02-15, version 1.0.3*

Some puzzles are east, others take a bit of struggle, but it’s fun. Love the photo puzzles, too

### 5/5 — Great Brain Game

*2020-01-28, version 1.0.3*

I think this is great for everyone, but perfect for keeping the grey cells working.  Having you think of lists, then fitting the words together, and hrow in difficult 4x4 picture puzzles. I highly recommend it to the oldies but goodies!

### 5/5 — Love this puzzles

*2020-01-03, version 1.0.3*

It's challenging

### 5/5 — Wow

*2019-08-31, version 1.0.3*

I love this game

### 2/5 — Not so great

*2019-07-12, version 1.0.3*

On my Apple TV when I try to rotate it won’t let me

### 1/5 — Still disappointed, not accessible

*2019-03-04, version 1.0.3*

I still use old version of Clue Words because it is much easier for me to read in B&W format.  I still play the old version daily for years. My favorite word app.  

I can not read well in this new version because of low color contrast.

Developer, can you add B&W high contrast option?  I’d like to play Parts VII and up and continue playing this app daily.  It’d be great this app be accessible for ppl with low vision like some fonts be in a little bigger font size.  

Thanks.
