### 4/5 — Replace newspaper

*2019-01-15, version 1.2.3*

I love the price. Keeps the mind functional. Good way to spend free time.

### 4/5 — Challenging enough.

*2019-01-03, version 1.2.3*

Agree with some of the comments that the clue at times appears to not relate well or at all with the word answer.

### 4/5 — Pretty good!

*2017-09-29, version 1.2.3*

Lots of puzzles

### 4/5 — Mots croisés

*2017-09-24, version 1.2.3*

La disposition qui est utilisée est différente des mots classiques mais elle a son charme et les croisements semblent plus directs et aident peut-être plus. Très bien

### 4/5 — Better than some

*2017-01-29, version 1.2.3*

Enjoyable but Herman and Spanish can be difficult

### 4/5 — Crosswords

*2017-01-15, version 1.2.3*

It's entertaining enough, but clues don't tie in very well with the answer.  The timer is difficult to see and there are too many ads for games that pop up, instead of the next crossword puzzle.  I am not a gamer.

### 4/5 — Mostly fun

*2016-12-27, version 1.2.3*

This is a fun and entertaining app for the most part. However, some answers have nothing to do with the clues, which means you have to spend free credits to solve the puzzle.

### 4/5 — Fun

*2016-10-10, version 1.2.1*

Great puzzles. Good clues. Different shapes and sizes. Few repeats from puzzle to puzzle. Used to play NY Times.

### 5/5 — US crossword

*2016-08-20, version 1.2.1*

I like that you don't have to spend money.  I like the way the clues are written.

### 5/5 — Awesome!!!

*2016-05-21, version 1.2*

This is probably the best crossword app for waiting at the doctors office! Love it, I play it every chance I get.
And the price is excellent- FREE!!! 😎👍👍❤️

### 1/5 — Limited number of decent puzzles

*2021-06-08, version 3.1*

Got to buy puzzles packs or stay limited to lame puzzles. I’m deleting this app.

### 1/5 — Qui crée ces grilles

*2019-07-02, version 1.2.3*

Définition de base. En fait c’est plus un jeu de synonymes. Pour les versions CAN FR, je m’attends a des mots et définitions canadienne francophone. Non française de France.

### 1/5 — DELETED

*2017-03-12, version 1.2.3*

Game is okay and plays fine. Plenty of settings for personal customization. Downside is, and is a big downside for me .... Endless interruptions taking you from the game to the App Store. Who's stupid idea was that?? Thanks to the idiot idea it is now          DE-LETED!

### 2/5 — Français par l’IA

*2026-07-19, version 3.3.1*

Malheureusement, on se fout de la gueule des francophones. Clairement, aucun francophone n’a lu les définitions énoncées. Si vous êtes francophone, passez votre chemin.

### 2/5 — Suppressions définitions.

*2016-10-08, version 1.2.1*

Supprimer les définitions code Alpha, les chiffres en romain, allemand, espagnol,etc.

### 3/5 — Beaucoup de fautes

*2024-04-03, version 3.3.1*

Agreable comme jeu et facile mais hélas il y a énormément de fautes d’orthographe dans les descriptions de mots

### 3/5 — OK, aber Fehler

*2020-11-16, version 3.0.5*

An sich eine gute App, mit drei größeren Fehlern:

1) Die Beschreibungen sind manchmal sehr seltsam
2) Man kommt nicht direkt auf die Pack Übersicht
3) Die Packs lassen sich nicht mehr frei laden, weil der Stand pro Pack bei 99% stehen bleibt, auch wenn im Status für alle Spiele 100% angezeigt werden

### 3/5 — New Crossword Format

*2017-09-06, version 1.2.3*

The mini crosswords are fun although some of the answers appear to be British. I would prefer not to have to jump through the other puzzle offerings to continue to the next crossword. Aside from that, the availability of multiple crosswords rather than one per day is a nice change.
If I had my choice, the original crossword format which allowed access to the daily crosswords for prior months/ years suited me better

### 3/5 — It's ok....

*2016-10-17, version 1.2.1*

Could be better. Far too many German words and unnecessarily complicated clues. Some of the answers can be quite obscure, e.g., clue: sinew; answer: thew.
These puzzles have a fair amount of place names, which can be a bit tedious for someone whose geography isn't too hot.

### 4/5 — Trop de noms propres

*2025-04-29, version 3.3.1*

Pas mal mais trop de noms d’acteurs, films ou albums, bref culture show-biz

Verslavend.

### 5/5 — Avis sur les mots croisés

*2021-07-28, version 3.1*

Enfin de bons mots croisés!!

### 5/5 — Vraiment très bien fait !

*2019-08-26, version 1.2.3*

Bonjour,

J’aimerais savoir s’il y a un moyen d’utiliser un clavier bluetooth pour compléter la grille au lieu d’utiliser le clavier tactile ?

### 5/5 — Excellent......I love it

*2019-06-04, version 1.2.3*

### 5/5 — Best Quick Crossword App

*2017-02-16, version 1.2.3*

This app is great!  Easy to use, done in 20 minutes or less,  and the price is right!

### 5/5 — Very Goid

*2017-01-11, version 1.2.3*

Very good crossword app many levels of difficulty able to reveal one letter at a time as a hint have not had to buy any "coins" yet and have played many hours - recommend!
