### 2/5 — Ads

*2026-08-21, version 7.2*

The concept of the game is good, and is fun to play…. But the amount of ads is ridiculous and the length of them too.
Less ads would make it easily a 4 star app

### 3/5 — Ads

*2026-08-19, version 7.2*

Hate the ads

### 3/5 — Publicité

*2026-08-16, version 7.2*

Bcp de publicité entre les parties 
Ça devient long pour rejouer

### 4/5 — Fun but…

*2026-08-14, version 7.2*

Some of the trivia I have come across is wrong. The facts at the end aren’t but multiple times I’ve seen the hint not accurately match the answer it was looking for. The most recent one was “flintstone neighbor” and the answer was “Dino” you know, their pet lol

Also, perfume was misspelled as perfum. This is really taking the fun out of things

### 3/5 — Ok, but the ads

*2026-08-10, version 7.2*

I like the puzzles but the ads get on my nerves. They are really annoying!!

### 3/5 — Great and fun

*2026-08-08, version 7.2*

Too many ads

### 5/5 — Where Cleverness Meets Play

*2026-08-07, version 7.2*

Crostic Crossword Word Puzzles hits like vintage lightning smart, bold, and irresistibly fun. Each clue feels epic, a tiny quest for the brainiac’s heart. It’s moving, clever, and joyfully addictive. Everyone should try it and feel their mind come alive.

### 5/5 — Good for student

*2026-08-06, version 7.2*

The educational game I ever played

### 2/5 — It’s ok

*2026-08-06, version 7.2*

Fun game but way to many ads

### 5/5 — Postie Jnr

*2026-08-06, version 7.2*

Best game for the mind and sole

### 4/5 — Crosswords are good

*2026-08-05, version 7.2*

I like the game, but HATE the ones shown after each set completed.

### 4/5 — Addictive

*2026-08-02, version 7.1.1*

I can’t seem to pull myself away from this game. My knowledge of words and spelling grows stronger with every win!

### 5/5 — Words words

*2026-08-02, version 7.1.1*

I’m just starting it but it definitely keeps your brain thinking!

### 2/5 — Legalzinho

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Too Many Adverts

*2026-09-04, version 7.2*

Too many adverts to make it at all enjoyable

### 1/5 — Ads

*2026-08-18, version 7.2*

Infested with ads

### 1/5 — Don’t play this for an offer

*2026-08-17, version 7.2*

The game just stops tracking progress and doesn’t pay out as promised.  I bought the ad free and would have easily made that back if the game tracking didn’t break and refuse to track completion of levels 75 and 100.  Textbook offer scam, pay early, stop tracking progress later in the game.

Edit: The developer just responded saying they don’t handle these matters.  However, their internal APIs are responsible for signaling progress to the 3rd party marketing systems, so this is a bad attempt at shifting blame.

### 1/5 — No fun for puzzle players

*2026-08-08, version 7.2*

If you have any experience with crosswords this game suck. Unskippable ads after nearly ever level and the levels are so easy. You’d probably have to watch 100 ads to get to a puzzle you can’t solve in your sleep. Don’t waste your time.

### 1/5 — Ennuyant

*2026-08-07, version 7.2*

Ça a trop de pub a chaque niveau un pub qu’on force a telecharger ca devient ennuyeux c est presque plus un jeu

### 1/5 — Too Easy. Too Many

*2026-08-05, version 7.2*

The only way this could be any easier in the lower levels is to start with all  the blanks already filled in. After each correct solution you have to ignore the adverts before carrying on. Time after time, after time. 

Waste of time.

### 1/5 — it’s ok i guess

*2026-08-01, version 7.1.1*

After each round it gives you an ad. super annoying you can’t even play it without wifi and if you want to get rid of the ads you have to pay.

### 1/5 — Stop asking

*2026-07-28, version 7.1.1*

I’m so tired of reviews

### 1/5 — Muito AD

*2026-07-23*

Impossível de jogar, você termina a fase e tem AD

### 1/5 — Anuncio

*2026-07-15*

Abri fiz 1 caça palavra achando que tava suave pq ja tinha anuncio na parte inferior pra tomar um anuncio full screen com timer, intragável.
