I play as often as I can. I have one request is when inputting last letter can you let us review the crossword before bringing the next puzzle title. Thanks PLEASE UPDATE! PLEASE UPDATE! ### 3/5 — App update needed. *2017-10-08, version 1.2* Enjoy using this app; however, an update is needed for it to work with/on iOS11. Thank you. ### 2/5 — Clueless in the App Store. *2017-07-29, version 1.2* Great game, however, it is time for an update folks. iOS 11 is coming! ### 5/5 — Best clueless crossword ever! *2017-07-16, version 1.2* . ### 5/5 — Love game, but..... *2017-06-23, version 1.2* Please update! ### 5/5 — Unique *2017-04-15, version 1.2* This is a very different game from the norm. It makes you think before you choose, loosing points for a wrong choice is not good. Enjoyable. May 31, 2013 My screen went black, sound gone, no prompts, nobody to contact. Tried re-installing, no go. So I'll delete it. Sorry to see it go but if no support won't bother anymore. M. Dickie May 31, 2013 Okay so now it's back. I've lost my high score, 94,000, I'm starting out at 3,100. Bother! M. Dickie Saturday, April 14th, 2017. Apple is telling me that if your company doesn't upgrade this game it will be inoperable on their OS, probably by next fall. I really liked your game it was so different, kept me coming back every day for a long time. I understand that every company and/or creator comes to a time when it goes on a different path, and if this is your decision I wish everyone associated with your company all the best going forward. I will miss the daily challenge. Molly ### 2/5 — Love it but... *2016-12-24, version 1.2* I've been playing for a couple years but it stopped working! It opens but I can't start a game now. Nothing happens when I try to select a new game. :-( ### 4/5 — Great fun *2016-12-16, version 1.2* This game is very enjoyable. However, recently it has been showing a message about slowing down your device. I did notice it's been a long time since an update. I'm guessing that the developer has stopped supporting the app, which is sad. ### 3/5 — Stuck *2016-04-30, version 1.2* I really like this game. It's good to exercise your brain, playing against your previous score. It is addictive too but mine has frozen when my score approached 100,000. So now I'm frustrated because it won't open past the first page and cannot connect to app support. ### 3/5 — TURN OFF THE INTRO! *2016-02-25, version 1.2* I like the game, but the ridiculous intro music is enough to keep me from playing it in public. Does anyone know how to turn it off? I'm not referring to the sound in the game, but the start-up music. ## Frequently asked questions about Clueless Crossword Party! ### What is Clueless Crossword Party!?
