Advertises no ads, lies!

Annoying ads. Lots of them

So many adds

End the game, add start, force close the app and reopen, it’s faster than sitting through all the adverts

Adds

It’s one thing to watch a quick add but when it don’t let you exit out of the adds it’s very frustrating. They have wasted enough of my time so it’s a goodbye from me 👋🏼

Too American

Your questions are ok if you watch American TV

Yikes!

I’ve had this on my phone for several years and have thoroughly enjoyed solving the puzzles. Here the last 8 months or so it keeps lagging, taking forever to load, or just making my phone freeze up. I’ve uninstalled the app and reinstalled it but that didn’t help. I hope you can fix this issue because I do miss the puzzles.

Misled

This game said no ads as part of an advertisement. It DEFINITELY has annoying ads!

Blocks Candy Crush

This is the SECOND TIME that I came close to winning Candy Crush, when a CROSSWORD EXPLORER ad froze me out of my game.
😤

Won’t end a game

Multiple times I have gone in and double checked my answers and fixed any errors. However, the game won’t go to “won” until I spend 10 coins for 5 letters. I have screenshotted before I lose coins and after, and both puzzles are identical. Yet, you can see the score has gone down 7. (-10+3 for winning) Otherwise I would give it a 4. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Aimed at the US

Nice idea, but unfortunately (and probably not deliberately) biased towards a US audience with Questions asked and answers sought.

As an example, in the UK, a Deli tends to be artisan breads and cured meats, imported cheeses and speciality foods. It’s not common for us to have a ‘usual’ in a delicatesen.

Pain in the a— ads

Great

Great because it as past and popular items we would know and not like off the wall.

I used to like it

Love the game. Hate the new drop down ads that you literally cannot exit from. They pop up immediately after closing them and take up half of the screen. I actually cannot play anymore. Makes me sad.

Ad

While trying to do the crossword puzzle an ad comes on that takes up over half of the screen, I minimize it but 2 seconds later it’s back and won’t go away. If this continues I’m dumping the app!

Ads

Can’t even play for pop up ads. Sad

pop-up ad cover puzzle content

Game was enjoyable until pop-up ads appear at level 84 that make completing the puzzle next to impossible close the ad it consistently comes back app support is nonexistent or impossible to find

What happened to FREE

Been using the app for many months. Now I can’t use it with adds that don’t go away.

Ad popping up every second

The ad has started popping up in less than a second. It will close and before you can select anything it comes back preventing playing the game!!
Prior to this issue kI have enjoyed playing the Crossword

Helpful

Enjoyed this game for a long time. The last three days there has been a BIG ad coming down from the top blocking most of the puzzle. Impossible to solve. If it keeps happening, I will delete app.

Crossword explorer

It was going ok. Too much USA content. What’s happening it’s getting flooded with ads during games nonstop. I’ll give it a couple of days and I’ll delete it. I don’t recommend at all at the moment

Hate the one add

. I have commented that the Kelshi ad is very offensive. There isn't a variety of ads so You have to sit there as long as it takes to get your coins. I didn't come to sit on a Kelshi as for five minutes just to get my bonus coins
I'll quit playing. Before I spend another five minutes sitting on an ad.
