### 3/5 — Alright

*2013-04-03, version 1.0.8*

Some hard, some easy. Sometimes hard to solve the very last couple of letters.

### 3/5 — Hard

*2013-03-25*

A little too difficult for me, but will keep trying

### 1/5 — Boooo

*2012-12-11, version 1.0.7*

Doesn't make any sense

### 1/5 — Yet another pixelated app

*2012-11-30*

The iPhone 5 is out, and these people still can't get their act together and design for retina displays???

### 1/5 — Unfinishable

*2012-10-27, version 1.0.7*

Almost half of the puzzles either require you to misspell the answers to make things fit and even then you can't finish the puzzle, for instance there is a picture of a "broom" but only "bosom" fits with the rest of the clues, (haha) so the puzzle is unfinishable, and "violent and dangerous" has to be "maniec" to fit with the rest of another puzzle.

### 3/5 — Puzzling

*2012-07-07*

To slow on hints and hint is not always where you want it.

### 4/5 — Help Option

*2012-06-26*

The hints tend to repeat themselves.  If you are stuck and you don't get a new hint, you can never solve the puzzle.  Sometimes I'm sure all of me answers are correct but the puzzle shows as not being solved.

### 2/5 — Waste of time

*2012-06-25*

This game isn't challenging to figure out in an intellectual way, it seems poorly thought out. Clues often don't make sense. Picture clues are poor. Typical crossword details such as tense continuity and abbreviation are overlooked. I feel as if I have wasted time on the two puzzles I've attempted.

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2012-05-16*

Confusing at first. Wish hints didn't give whole words and that I could get them faster. Wish there were settings that could show if a letter was right or not or to shut off the music. Some little pictures are confusing.  Still was fun.  Wish it was more mike "Arrow words".

### 4/5 — Fun

*2012-05-06*

I agree that at times the clues can be confusing, but they sure can be fun to figure out. It's a whimsical crossword puzzle. Try it; you'll like it!
