Not to mention the packs are 250. In the other game that the developers made the hints are 30 coins and you can get a hint for free by watching an ad and the packs are only 100 unless the developers make everything a lot cheaper I will not play this game. Not impressed!!! 😡 ### 5/5 — CrossPics *2019-10-14, version 3.0.69* Addicting game ### 5/5 — Great *2019-10-11, version 3.0.69* Great game ### 5/5 — Good *2019-09-30, version 3.0.68* Fun ### 5/5 — Hi *2019-09-07, version 3.0.66* This is a fun game ### 5/5 — Fun *2019-08-12, version 3.0.59* Addictive fun game love it ### 5/5 — A**** *2019-05-31, version 3.0.48* The game is brilliant when u on the go or in the car, wait for appointment ### 5/5 — So fun *2019-05-22, version 3.0.47* This is the most fun game I have ever played ### 5/5 — Awesome *2019-05-21, version 3.0.47* I love the crossword concept it keeps my brain working! ### 5/5 — Kirsty’s review on 100 pics crosswords game *2019-05-13, version 3.0.47* I love the game it’s good for the brain. ### 5/5 — Good game *2019-04-17, version 3.0.47* Good game ### 5/5 — Love this game *2019-04-17, version 3.0.47* Gives me something to do everyday ### 5/5 — Great *2019-02-25, version 3.0.47* Great for esl! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Hi developers 👋 *2024-11-05* Game unplayable / hardly loading so can’t give a good rating as yet 😕 ### 1/5 — Fix this please *2022-08-03, version 3.0.74* Today the free pack is instruments but I got an ad and refreshed but now it wont let me download it, it just still wont unlock it only has a subscription option and there’s no play button pls fix this ### 1/5 — Childish and super stupid *2019-10-08* I don’t understand have you guys ever tried it by yourself? It doesn’t swipe well no matter how many times you try and its super childish. I wish i have had more than 2 thumbs to give you lots of thumbs down 👎🏾👎🏾 ### 1/5 — Was a good game ................ *2019-09-13, version 3.0.66* However after they decided to “ update “ it , I’ve lost all my coins , most of the topics don’t load and I can’t get any others as you’ve taken all my coins . Don’t bother with this, I’ve deleted it . As the saying go’s “ if it’s not broke , don’t fix it “ !! ### 1/5 — Game glitches *2019-06-18, version 3.0.54* The game is fun, however when I try to use my hint coins it doesn’t give me the hint and I end up wasting my coins. I contacted the support team, and he asked about my internet connection. My internet connection is outstanding and not the issue is what I told him and he said sorry unfortunately I can’t help you. Everything isn’t always about internet connection the game just glitches. That’s why I rated this game so low. I didn’t even want to give it a star, because the guy didn’t even try to assist. Don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2019-04-25, version 3.0.47* Trash game does nothing but bore me as about 10 ads pop up every second ### 3/5 — Good game but doesn't let you get free packs *2019-09-01, version 3.0.63* Love the game but doesn't let you get free packs when connected to internet very dissatisfied please fix ### 3/5 — Great potential *2018-12-30, version 3.0.47* This game has great potential. It is, for now, very limited. And a bit confusing as the crosswords are on top of the actual images. Makes it hard to see the actual image. With improvements it will become a great game ### 3/5 — Vfjvf *2018-11-14, version 3.0.46* Hey ### 3/5 — Good but doesn’t load! *2018-07-02, version 3.0.29* I really enjoy this game but it really struggles to load. Soooo frustrating, going to have to delete app as it isn’t getting any better. Shame because other than that it is a great game! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love *2021-11-22, version 3.0.72* I download this yesterday and haven’t been able to walk away from it ### 5/5 — I love it *2021-11-04, version 3.0.72* It’s a great game to play ### 5/5 — CrossPics *2021-07-08, version 3.0.72* There are too many adverts during playing the game. ### 5/5 — CrossPics *2021-04-25, version 3.0.69* I found it 2 years ago and I forgot all about it. I started playing it 2 weeks ago and I’m never bored. There’s a new puzzle every day and it keeps me going for 10 minutes. ### 5/5 — Amazing game only 2 issues *2020-07-12, version 3.0.69* my issues are: 1. swiping letters is hard and doesn’t always work 2. hints are pretty expensive, but over all great game ### 5/5 — Syls *2020-05-18, version 3.0.69* Sometimes challenging but good brain game ### 5/5 — Cross Pics *2020-04-23, version 3.0.69* Lots of fun.
