I really enjoy the different events like BINGO and FILL IN THE PHRASE. PLINKO IS STINKO but having said all the pluses, the new format of the CHALLENGE WORD joins the list is STINKO. Why ruin a perfectly great game by adding a useless feature. I can’t tell which letters are highlighted and which are not. Do you and me a favor and get rid of this new aspect. And while you’re at it, get rid of PLINKO. More BINGO and more FILL IN THE PHRASE games are the way to go! Take my suggestions and I’ll come back and give you 5 Stars! ### 3/5 — Change choice *2021-01-03, version 1.11.1* App doesn’t allow you to fill in the ketters you know without a whole word In seasonal challenge app does not allow you to solve after clicking continue button. You have to spend another turn choosing a letter. ### 5/5 — Complaint *2020-04-28, version 1.0.1* Don’t like that I’m blocked from doing the puzzle without a review. I gave you 5 stars! , ### 5/5 — perfect balance! *2020-04-21, version 1.0* Simple clean design with a perfect balance of casual and thinky, the letter wheel is such a fun way to solve clues! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — How do you get points? *2023-11-16, version 1.22.0* First of all I have solved multiple puzzles and I haven’t received any coins for that. Nothing. NADA. But they take away your COINS (100) THAT you got at the beginning of the game, when you need a clue. Not sure what I am missing? Also ADS after every three words, not puzzle, you complete. Not impressed. Waste of time. ### 1/5 — The ads *2023-10-15, version 1.22.0* Way more than any3 of my other games together just awful ### 1/5 — Too many ads! *2023-05-22, version 1.20.0* There are ads every few minutes that last 30 seconds long. Way too many and way too long! Also the clues in crosswords make no sense sometimes. ### 1/5 — Too many ads for other Apps *2023-03-13, version 1.20.0* I always liked playing this app. Unfortunately they now have ads that are 45 seconds long. I have better things to do that sit and look at an App I don’t want for 45 seconds. ### 1/5 — Horrid crossword game *2022-08-29, version 1.19.0* Quotes and phrases way too long and won’t let you solve just anytime. Constantly get booted out and takes forever to get back to game. And l don’t like the political advertisements especially for loser trump. ### 1/5 — Ads while in middle of completion; *2022-01-27, version 1.19.0* Ads can get pesky and be tough to close or disappear; remember it is a timed game; free letters are random and you have to wait to see what shows up; 50/50 on being in the puzzle. Several Pesky ads while hoping to land with free letter. Cost 300 coins to go back early on the calendar 1000 coins for a particular subject. You can buy coins/apples but only watch videos for 25 coins and free letters ### 1/5 — Spelling *2021-11-17, version 1.17.4* So many misspelled words. So many weird clue and answers. Not worth the time ### 1/5 — terrible *2021-08-03* i came across this app when i was looking for a crossword puzzle app to entertain me and keep my mind sharp. this app fails to do both of these things as it provides you with the letters to spell out the words, and highlights when you have made a mistake. it is near false advertising to market this as a crossword app due to the fact the answers are provided and all it is is a test of spelling. not only am i disappointed but i am deleting this app within an hour of downloading as it is simply not challenging. how it has managed to get 4.9 stars i can only wonder as i cannot fathom this app posing a challenge to anyone over the age of 7. i recommend anyone looks elsewhere to find a suitable crossword app - preferably a local newspaper - as any other crossword would do a better job at challenging you than this. ### 1/5 — Very costly *2021-07-15, version 1.17.0* Says it’s free, but soon you’re out of apples and must pay pay pay. Deleting after one day. ### 3/5 — Not worth it *2022-09-09, version 1.19.0* Too much of a hassle! Way too many ads pop up in the middle of a puzzle that you are being timed on, which is ridiculous and it cost too much money to get rid of the ads for only seven days. Too many other good games out there I’ll pass 🙁 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing *2025-04-27, version 1.24.1* I love Daily Crossword, it keeps my brain so occupied, especially at night when I am stressed. If you love crosswords you should get this game!!! ### 5/5 — Good game *2024-11-17, version 1.24.1* A little hard but love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Great game *2021-10-10, version 1.17.4* Love it ### 5/5 — Missing coins *2021-08-23, version 1.17.1* I signed up for the VIP on Friday night. I expected to receive 500 sign up bonus coins and a daily reward of 150 coins. I received neither. I am missing 3 days of coins, for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. But I did get the bonus and reward on Monday. Shouldn’t I get the missing coins, which would be 1950 coins? ### 5/5 — Brain Food 👍🏻 *2021-06-30, version 1.16.1* My Doctor told me to do puzzles and word games,I had an accident opening a bag of Aphid Killer and the bag broke and the Aphid Killer went in my face My Doctor told me it is great for your brain,and I actually enjoy them now ### 5/5 — I love this game *2021-02-17, version 1.12.0* I really love this game it’s really relaxing and fun to play ### 5/5 — Awesome *2020-07-23, version 1.4.1* I love this game!

It’s a fun challenge and I like that there’s the option to unlock more puzzles. ### 5/5 — I’m addicted!!!! *2020-06-05, version 1.0.6* I like this so much more than regular crossword games. Still challenging but much more fun!! ### 5/5 — Too early, but *2020-06-05, version 1.0.6* Loving it, so far........ --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
