It’s a simple app and does all it needs to. Great app!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Not good *2024-12-24* This game is bad because…1. on some places that you need to write you can’t 2.it is so packed you can’t even see what the words are 3.they give you the boards but you need 2 people ### 1/5 — Nope *2024-09-29* Using an iPad. Can’t see the words or clues or game boards they go past the screen. Womp womp. Nice try, sorry guys. ### 1/5 — Terrible! *2024-01-07* Does not fit on screen and cannot make smaller, what good is word search without the words or a crossword with no clues. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on iPad Pro 12.9” *2023-09-08* This app doesn’t display well on iPad Pro … problems include 1] text on tod of other text (example: the word ‘sudoku’ makes entering top row of upper-center square impossible), 2] doesn’t support landscape (horizontal) screen orientation. Maybe good for other iPads with pencil, but not here! ### 2/5 — Too sensitive *2023-04-02* Picks up palm pressure and draws straight lines from pencil tip to palm, very frustrating ### 1/5 — Could be better *2023-01-09* Nice idea but it is obvious this apps main goal is to deliver ads. The title blocks the top row of sudoku, palm recognition is not an option as well making the app annoying to use. Your basically just drawing on an image, no game logic to make you follow the rules. I would give the app a pass, unless you need more advertising. ### 5/5 — Love it *2023-01-02* I don’t know why everyone is hating on this app it does what it says it does. The word searches are fun because I love writing the answers. Also it's great for two people and its a good app. ### 1/5 — I was not happy with it *2023-01-01* I was not happy with the game because it was not playable the words like sodoku were in the way and it would not let me write in the actual places where I should write ## Frequently asked questions about Pencil Games ### What kind of games are included?
