Deleted after seeing the same 10 quotes in the same order.

Good App!

I love Cryptogram puzzles. I’ve tried so many different apps to find one that works, is user friendly, has interesting quotes, and gives me a good challenge. This is my everyday favorite!

March 9th puzzle inoperative! No app support!

After several failed attempts at recreating the puzzles to be more helpful in alleviating memory issues in elders, the makers of this game finally understood my input of NOT placing the letters into puzzles too many times, thereby making them more substantial for one to think & solve using their brains more effectively. This staves off Alzheimer’s disease, creates better focus & keeps memory issues at bay. Thank you puzzle creators for FINALLY accepting my severe critique of your game & making it a game worthy of supporting & giving 2 VERY HIGH THUMBS UP! I hope it will continue to thrive & become a staple in many peoples lives for many years to come!

Calming

The soothing musical background of this puzzle adds a pleasant touch while solving it.

Response from developer

Wow, a 5-star review! We couldn't be happier to hear that our app is meeting your expectations. Thank you for your support and for taking the time to write such a kind review! :-) - May

I feel ripped off.

I got tired of having to sit through ads then not being able to move on to the next game without closing and reopening the app, so I broke down and paid $4.99 for the module I liked best (song lyrics). The ads STILL appeared! Now they want an additional $7.99 to go ad-free. I’m just going to stop playing and find a new game app altogether.

March 9th puzzle inoperative! No app support!

Puzzles MUST BE GIVEN FULL APP SUPPORT, COMPLETE WITH A LIVE HUMAN BEING SEEING WHEN A PART OF APP IS IN DISTRESS TO ITS PLAYERS! Failure to objectively care for your game & concern for your players should be your NUMBER ONE PLACE TO BEGIN FIXING THE ISSUES THAT ARISE. IE: March 9th, 2025 puzzle of the day DOES NOT OPEN! IT HAS ONLY A WHITE SCREEN COME UP!

I would be willing to pay for an ad free version

This has great potential, but it makes you look at ad videos far too often.

Ripoff!

I paid these clowns 8 bucks to stop showing me ads but now I can’t complete a level without watching a ridiculously long ad. I’ve never been more angry with an app in my life. This has to be illegal. What absolute garbage!

Can’t read the numbers

I really enjoy this game except that I have trouble distinguishing between a 3 and a 5 and between a 6 and an 8 sometimes. When I make a mistake because I couldn’t tell what number it is it is very frustrating

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for your kind support! We will forward your request to our product team and continue to optimize our game to deliver a better and better gaming experience. Please feel free to reach us at cryptogram@gurugame.ai with any feedback. Hopefully, our continued improvement will finally win your 5th star! Thanks again! :-) - Ray

Paid for No ads, Ads still show up

It is absolutely infuriating to pay $7.99 to remove ads permanently, only to continue to see then an the time. At this point It's like a refund and to uninstall and never play this have again.
Also, the font and numbers are too small.

Response from developer

Hi, thank you so much for your kind support. The Remove Ads service is for removing the Banner Ads, and the Pop-up Ads between each level. But the Bonus Videos(such as for double hints) are not removed. This is mentioned in the purchase information. If anything else, please feel free to reach us at cryptogram@gurugame.ai. Thanks again! :-) - Ray

👍🏻

Fun and the commercials don't interrupt you midgame!
The music is annoying, and plays even when my phone is on silent. But I just turn the volume down.

Great game!

This is one of the best cryptogram games that I’ve played! It is aesthetically pleasing and the quotes are fun to unlock! The ads however are very long, and I would like to purchase the no ads option, but unfortunately the button does not work. I have tried to do this through three different apple devices so it is not a problem with the device or the screen being unable to select the “buy” option. Very disappointing that the no ads pop up on the home screen does not actually allow you to buy it.

lame

you don't give the option of not highlighting the correct letter so the game is extremely stupid because you're telling us what the answer is

The best cryptogram game in the App Store.

The ads in this app aren’t NEARLY as intrusive as any of the other ones. They use banner ads (some of them pause music/videos) and the only time they force you to watch full screen ads is if you’re unlocking a new category (sometimes they pop up after you’ve finished a level but not nearly as much as the other apps.) two things I’d change: 1) some ads pausing media and 2) add an option to turn off auto scroll. Other than those things, I love this app 💜

Won’t allow you to continue to the next level

Game was fun but it wouldn’t allow you to move forward in the game so I deleted the app
