Although this version is relatively easier than the Cryptoquotes, I’m enjoying it very much. My respect to the creator for no ads and for putting in the effort to create this for us to enjoy! ### 5/5 — CryptoFamilies *2025-06-09, version 2.8.1* I loved doing word puzzles with my Mom, this type was always our favorite! She’s been gone many years now, I think of her when I do these. Thank you ### 5/5 — Fun game *2025-05-06, version 2.8.1* This crypto game is really fun. Not too easy, not too hard. ### 5/5 — Fun game *2025-05-02, version 2.8.1* Lots of fun and I like the fact that they have a hint if your stuck ### 5/5 — At first I thought these were too easy. *2025-04-25, version 2.8.1* Then I hit a challenging one and realized I was in for a ride! ### 5/5 — My fave crypto game! *2025-03-30, version 2.8.1* This app has more than other cryptogram apps I tried. Multiple categories, in multiple games. Ads aren’t bad. Although I’d love to pay $1 for no ads at all (including optional ads, which should never be a part of any game apps), with no subscription. But this is my fave cryptogram game! ### 5/5 — Hints *2025-03-24, version 2.8.1* Permits hints when you need one, ### 5/5 — Fun game *2025-03-05, version 2.8.1* Not too easy ### 5/5 — Good for beginners *2025-02-23, version 2.8.1* Nice casual puzzles. ### 5/5 — Clean Simple Perfect *2025-02-22, version 2.8.1* This is all you need for a short diversion. The challenges your mind. ### 5/5 — Play detective *2025-02-15, version 2.8.1* I feel like I am cracking spy codes when playing this game! Fun and challenging ### 5/5 — Fun app *2025-01-25, version 2.8.1* Fun ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-01-15, version 2.8.1* I look forward to all of their puzzles every day ### 5/5 — Great *2024-11-22, version 2.8.1* Love this game. A true learning experience ### 5/5 — One of my favorite paper puzzles! Very accessible. Well designed!... *2024-11-21, version 2.8.1* Is just as fun on the iPad! Thanks for this great app! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 2/5 — Not worth the money to buy *2024-03-10, version 2.8.1* I may revise my review, but after playing the free puzzles I purchased the uppermost tier of puzzles. So far they are all puzzles I did in the free mode! Unless there are some new puzzles soon—this was a bust. ### 3/5 — Simple fun *2026-07-21, version 2.8.1* A good little game that is fun to play but makes you think a bit. I picked it up on a daily puzzles mix of games. I enjoyed this one so I downloaded the app so I could play it some more. ### 3/5 — Fun Game but… *2023-04-12, version 2.8.1* The game is fun overall but some of the categories are hard or misleading. It just sucks that it feels like some rounds I have to just repeatedly hit hint because I don’t know that topic. I think there’s too many rounds that rely on you knowing specific topics and if you don’t then it’s “sorry you don’t get to have fun playing” ### 3/5 — So much potential! *2021-07-02, version 2.8.1* Great game, and no ads! What can I say. It’s not been updated in a while and there’s so few rounds that you’ll burn through this game in no time. Some of the hints are also very American-centric. I have no idea what your sports teams are called, for example. Wish this game would be updated. You could have animal categories, food categories, anything…. ### 4/5 — Word games *2025-08-08, version 2.8.1* Fun games , keeps the mind working ### 4/5 — Fun *2025-06-11, version 2.8.1* Really enjoying these puzzles. ### 4/5 — Fun Categories *2025-01-22, version 2.8.1* I like this game it takes you to different places. ### 4/5 — .good game *2024-12-08, version 2.8.1* I am enjoying the cryptos. They are challenging, but not so challenging as to make me give up. Even the easier ones keep me interested. ### 4/5 — Fun game *2024-11-19, version 2.8.1* Some of the categories are a little obscure but the game is fun overall. ### 4/5 — Good Collection of Crypto-Families *2024-10-19, version 2.8.1* Nicely laid out interface and ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Dfield *2026-05-25, version 2.8.1* Some easy, some challenging ### 5/5 — Mind training *2026-04-08, version 2.8.1* I love this app as it helps your brain to think logically. There are several different games all aimed at improving your mind skills. I’m 76 and I’m hoping it keeps my mind alert ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-03-21, version 2.8.1* Great game! I like families because I can get my kids involved. Need more rounds! ### 5/5 — Crypto-Families *2026-03-15, version 2.8.1* I enjoy Crypto-Families, and these are the first I’ve seen.
