The story games are fun but for every level you may end up with 4 or 5 ad breaks. ### 3/5 — Fix the bug *2026-08-12, version 1.40.27204* I love this game other than so many ads! However - the daily puzzle has been stuck on the same one for about a month. I deleted the game & reinstalled. Got a new daily puzzle that day then it went back to the same one. Needs fixed or I'm looking for a different one. ### 2/5 — Repetitive *2026-08-12, version 1.40.27204* Keeps using the same clues surely there enough sayings,quotes in the world without using the same ones over. Not impressed. ### 4/5 — Daily Word Puzzle *2026-08-01, version 1.40.27204* This is one of my favorite games. Too many ads but I’ve learned how to get around some of them. Why has the Daily Word Challenge not changed for 32 days and counting. This is always a fun one to play. You also just reposted the Detective Story? ### 4/5 — Jokes *2026-07-26, version 1.39.26647* Really like this game, but the daily April Fool’s joke is becoming very tiresome. Stop it now please. Any more and I’m out of here Gus ### 4/5 — Just stop repeating *2026-07-25* I really love this game but for the last four or five days I have got exactly the same phase for the daily puzzle. Please if this is a glitch could you fix it as I know the phrase so well now I don’t get any fun out of solving it. ### 2/5 — Why ruin what could be great *2026-07-19, version 1.39.26647* Ads during game play is that really necessary? Well I will probably delete the game sadly because I do enjoy it, but not enough to be forced to pay for ad free version so my game play isn’t interrupted. ### 3/5 — ADS! *2026-06-27, version 1.37.26049* This is one of my favorite games BUT I keep checking 'not interested' for compression socks and every single ad is for these socks!!! ### 3/5 — Glitches *2026-06-23, version 1.37.26049* Too many glitches that lock up the game. Frustrating! ### 2/5 — You were great *2026-06-14, version 1.37.26049* I’ve played your cryptogram for a long time and have loved it. I go to play it today and during the first game I was subjected to 4 ads popping up in the middle of it. That’s it for me I won’t play it anymore. BYE BYE,! ### 2/5 — Same Puzzle *2026-06-02, version 1.36.25978* I’ve been getting exactly the same puzzle every day in the daily puzzle. I guess we all know it by heart: April’s fool day is a day for playing jokes! Please sort it out!!! ### 3/5 — Same daily puzzle *2026-05-22, version 1.35.25411* The daily puzzle is the same every day. I thought I needed to update the app but that did not change anything. This is one of my favorite games to play but it is very annoying to have the same daily puzzle everyday. ### 4/5 — Great game but… *2026-05-11, version 1.35.25411* I’m in a tournament and enjoying it but now I can’t see when it adds my points and suddenly it isn’t tallying my points earned. What is happening? ### 3/5 — This was a 5 but….. *2026-05-06, version 1.35.25411* I love this game and play it every day. But for the last 2 weeks every daily puzzle is the same! “April fools day is a day for playing jokes”!! Come on! Please give us a new daily or I’m going to have to delete a game that I love sooo much! ### 2/5 — PLEASE BRING BACK BLUE SPECIAL LEVELS!!! *2026-05-06, version 1.35.25411* I do love this game, but some things still need to be repaired. Please, please, please bring the BLUE SPECIAL LEVELS back to the game and ensure that a large puzzle isn’t started with only 2 or sometimes only one letter. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not good *2026-08-06, version 1.40.27204* Too many ads it keep freezing up ### 1/5 — Not like the ad shows 😩 *2026-08-04, version 1.40.27204* The ad I saw showed that you tap the number 7 and ALL 7’s light up. You click E and ALL 7’s got an E. Nope! You have to tap every 7 individually. It would be a great game if it did what it advertised. They evidently realize this, since they put it in their ads. I deleted this app during the first puzzle. ### 1/5 — Same daily puzzle for more than a month *2026-08-01, version 1.40.27204* The same daily “April Fool’s” puzzle has repeated for more than a month. I used to enjoy doing a new puzzle every day. When it was repeated on August 1st again, I deleted the game. ### 1/5 — APRIL FOOLS DAY IS A DAY FOR PLAYING JOKES *2026-07-03, version 1.39.26647* Please correct daily puzzle is stuck on above. ### 1/5 — Pop up ad *2026-06-11, version 1.37.26049* It keep popping up ad ### 1/5 — Yikes *2026-06-01, version 1.36.25978* Was just starting the game and saw that I have to pay $2.99 every 7 days to not have ads. That's immediately a no from me. That's crazy. ### 1/5 — Broken - No support *2026-05-20, version 1.35.25411* If you are like me and enjoy playing daily challenges, skip this game! It’s been broken for a month, presenting the same puzzle every day. And, after three emails to let them know the game is broken, there has not been a response. ### 1/5 — TOO MANY ADS. *2026-04-12* there is an advert after every. single. level. I understand that adverts are needed to keep the app free, but having an advert after every level is just so ridiculous. It would be better if they were after every 3 or 5 levels rather than every second. It’s quite jarring. ### 1/5 — Good game, but… *2026-03-05, version 1.31.23806* You have a good game, challenging and informative, but once you hit level 100 or so, you start getting “ad breaks” in the middle of a game. By level 200, you are getting ad breaks every three or gour minutes, PLUS what I think of as “bonus ads,” ads that interrupt the game but are not tagged as breaks. And around level 259, you are getting ads every 90 seconds of play time… and the ads are two minutes long and unskippable. As I said, good game, but this “we’ll be back to cur ads after this short word from our game” business model just lost you a customer. ### 1/5 — Obnoxious Ads *2026-02-28* This game is nearly unplayable! Not only are there ads after every single puzzle, there are ads IN THE MIDDLE of your puzzle! Often numerous ads (3-6) while you're trying to complete ONE level, depending on how long the cryptogram is. Some of the ads are SO LONG that you forget where you even were. There's also a stationary ad bar at the bottom of the screen, that randomly will pop-up in the middle of the game. These reviews saying they love this game have to be either old, bots, or fraudulent. One recent review somehow has 5 stars but it ONLY complains about the ads and said they're deleting the app! How is that?? The puzzles are also repetitive. On Valentine's Day, the second time I even opened this app, I got a puzzle about New Year's Eve??? Which I already had last month! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Tres sympa *2026-07-18* Chaques lettres relier à un chiffre! ### 5/5 — Interesting Enough *2026-07-12, version 1.39.26647* Crypto Grahams are both Fun & Interesting to Figure out is at least what I feel about this one ### 5/5 — Brain is running loud!,, *2026-07-07, version 1.39.26647* Good for it,,, ### 5/5 — Jeux de mots *2026-07-03, version 1.39.26647* J’ai adorée ### 5/5 — Play this game everyday! *2026-06-12, version 1.37.26049* Please no ad breaks ! I don’t mind the actual ads but the breaks are new and to often. ### 5/5 — Not perfect but good *2026-05-15* This is one of the best cryptogram games with decent graphics, but I have two gripes: 1) It frequently freezes, causing me to have to literally turn my phone off to clear it, and 2) The ads option is awful. I’m willing to pay a one-time fee for no ads, but the only option is $3/week. I stopped playing out of annoyance once and am about to give up. Please change that and it’d be SO much better! ### 5/5 — Me encanto *2026-05-07, version 1.35.25411* Y ### 5/5 — Trop annonce publicité *2026-04-24, version 1.34.24691* Je trouve qui y a beaucoup de publicité pendant le jeu ### 5/5 — Game is great!! *2026-04-23, version 1.34.24691* Love the game, but it’s been freezing today. I deleted/uploaded it again still having trouble. ### 5/5 — Jenny *2026-03-24, version 1.32.24099* fun and challenging! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
