## What is Crossgrams?

Crossgrams is a new kind of word puzzle which mixes anagrams with crosswords (and has a pinch of Sudoku). It's simple, challenging, and extremely addictive. To unscramble each puzzle, just drag letters left and right (never up or down), but watch out: it's not as easy as it seems! Each letter you solve and pin in place is a new clue for the surrounding words. Puzzles range from bite-sized fun to brain-busters you can spend a whole afternoon chipping away at, just like a weekend crossword puzzle.  

About in-app purchases:
Crossgrams is free, and contains no ads. It comes with two free sample puzzle packs, and a daily puzzle which is always free. Purchases come in the form of additional larger puzzle packs (plus one for color themes). After careful consideration, our small indie team simply didn't want to make a game filled with ads and distractions. We hope you'll enjoy Crossgrams enough to purchase some packs so we can afford to add more puzzles, and that you'll help us spread the word about the game!

### 4/5 — Good but needs new challenges

*2025-04-18, version 1.06*

I do enjoy this game and play the daily one every day.  Please can you do some new ones though as they are getting really repetitive and becoming less of a challenge

### 5/5 — Great game

*2023-01-24, version 1.06*

Great word game I’ve spent hours playing. Have now purchased both challenge level packs :) You can reset the levels so there’s some level of playability but still hope it’s updated with more packs :)

### 5/5 — Love Crossgrams!

*2022-01-18*

Tried a few other crosswords & didn't like all the "juvenile" stuff with them. This has a clean, uncluttered interface & is user-friendly. I wish the developer would UPDATE & add more NEW challenge packs for those of us who play everyday. Really good for keeping mind sharp! 😉

### 4/5 — Nice

*2021-04-13, version 1.06*

Great little game. Simple and generous with its content. Different from a lot of other word games.

### 5/5 — Generous

*2020-10-20*

Been playing this one every morning, and am on a 90-day streak. I actually look forward to it. No ads or pressure. 
Am curious tho about how the hints are tallied. Sometimes I don't use any, but it says I’ve used 6 or 8.

### 5/5 — Crossgrams

*2020-06-18, version 1.06*

I rarely write reviews but this really deserves one. I've found Crossgrams excellent. It's the best word game I have played, also very easy to understand. I don't know why one reviewer couldn't get it. 
With lots of free puzzles of gradually increasing complexity I gradually built up my solving speed and confidence. I now can sort anagrams much faster than before. The free daily puzzle gets harder each day of the week and then there are the puzzle packs to go at as well.

### 5/5 — Simple, enjoyable puzzler

*2019-07-14, version 1.06*

Easy to learn, great range of difficulty from super simple to fiendish. Elegant, simple UI.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2019-06-08*

Really enjoy playing this game. Daily puzzle always free and can be challenging or not so much. Good variety. Hoping for new puzzle packages. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — It’s great

*2019-03-24, version 1.05*

But today there is nothing at all when I go to the daily puzzle
And I have a streak of 6 days if that helps

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2019-01-07, version 1.03*

What a great idea. It would be nice if more puzzles were available, that’s the only thing I can pick at with this
