User reviews

Enjoyable

I just finished the last group. 🥺

The only problem is that the last update was 4 years ago. It was fun while it lasted.

Very fun, relaxing word puzzle game

Will be excited to learn if there are new puzzle packs coming out anytime soon. I think the developers did a great job. I was able to solve most of the puzzles quickly, but it's a satisfying quick use of your mind.

Fun game

Would have given it 5 stars but there are many incorrect definitions.

A relaxing, challenging game

Enjoyable concept, wonderful sound, beautiful design, and excellent gameplay that provides a nice distraction that is simultaneously relaxing and challenging. Compared to other iOS games out there, it's like eating strawberries instead of potato chips—you feel better about yourself afterward.

Very satisfying (at first)

Updated review-- I love words, spelling, clues, crosswords, and creative visual or kinetic concepts, so this game concept is a lot of fun for me. It's very simple but elegant. I just hope they create more puzzles. I finished all but the daily puzzles in about an hour. The game developers are not reliable about posting a daily puzzle, and once it is posted, it takes me about ten seconds to complete. I have also seen daily puzzles repeated and errors in the puzzles that made them impossible to solve. My theory is that this app has flopped and is being abandoned, so those of us who paid $ for it will soon be out of luck.
