Used to be great

I used to like this app. The crosswords were pretty good and there were so many, you could start again and not remember the clues of the first.

But..these new daily crosswords are bad. I don’t know if they’re AI generated or just created by someone who’s first language isn’t English but some of the clues are just woeful. A lot of the clues are also very ambiguous which is fine for a cryptic crossword but these aren’t.

The crossword packs have been around long enough to not be tainted by AI so I’d stick with those if you’re looking for extra crosswords rather than rely on the daily one.

Great!

Challenging enough without being impossible for me. The only reason I’m giving 4 stars is it leans British and I don’t have that vocabulary.

Reasonable crossword app

Generally ok if not very taxing. Tendancy for clues to repeat as you work through the library of crosswords.

Very good

Great questions

Great crossword

No ads. No WiFi. Perfect

Perfect

Nice simple crosswords

Enjoyable and not too challenging

Very enjoyable

I’ve had this app for a couple of years. It’s user friendly and enjoyable. Nothing over fancy, just a decent crossword.
A guy in a coffee shop saw me playing it in the queue and couldn’t believe it was so uncluttered and straight forward. He downloaded it straight away.

Great!

This is a great bunch of crosswords. I was enjoying them so decided to pay for the full package. It’s good to have crosswords that include UK spelling. Now it just got better! I’ve been upgraded to include daily crosswords - at no extra cost! Thanks guys!

Great recreational crossword app

I like this app, no ads, lots of crosswords, and you can check your answers or reveal a letter or word if you really get stuck. Would recommend!

Brilliant

Very good

Great app

Love the app I use it all the time.

Good overall crossword puzzle game

Works well. New puzzles seem to have appeared recently after years of support. Nice to have. It allows use of a hardware keyboard which is better than some other crossword games I have purchased

Enjoyable

I am disappointed that only one crossword a day is available, that is why it has only 4 stars. However the crosswords are good.

Crossword

I start the day with tea and a puzzle. It helps wake up my mind. Not to mention, I love words; they evoke so many ideas, stir up memories, and often reveal a meaning I did not know.

Great game

Really good enjoying the update

Excellent

Closest thing to Times 2, although sometimes answers are stated in the clue itself (can’t think of anything specific but maybe something like ‘Coat for drizzly weather’ for ‘Raincoat’ would be what I mean).

My favourite puzzle

I’ve had this puzzle for a long time and enjoy solving them! The reason I am reviewing this now is because I really like all the little improvements you’ve done, plus the daily puzzle that you’ve added! Really happy!

Excellent
