### 5/5 — Excellent Game

*2025-10-23, version 2.2*

Love this game. It’s always a fun challenge.

### 3/5 — Hard puzzle

*2025-07-24, version 2.2*

Timer does not start on hard puzzles at times. Bug to be fixed.

### 2/5 — Hit or miss

*2025-07-19, version 2.2*

The daily crossword is great - the regular game, not so much. Would love more puzzles like the daily.

### 1/5 — Buggy-I guess

*2025-02-09, version 2.2*

I am DONE with this app. I have been playing for years and have loved it. Now every couple of weeks, it will quit counting the time. This is an important part of the game. So I delete the app, re-download and it will be okay for a little while-until it happens again!  DONE!

### 3/5 — Fun, But Please ..,

*2025-01-26, version 2.2*

This is a fun and challenging game to play. Some are rather hard and when finally finished would like to see the completed puzzle words for a minute but it is closed immediately to show an Ad. Very annoying.

### 5/5 — Fantastic game!

*2024-12-04, version 2.2*

Sometimes there are games that are truly fantastic and we have to tell everyone about it.  Thank you for creating this wonderful game!

### 5/5 — the best

*2024-08-01, version 2.2*

the best challenging word game for wordsmiths. so challenging yet enjoyable yet relaxing. you won’t regret the buy.

### 3/5 — Word jigsaw

*2024-02-04, version 2.2*

Love the puzzle. Have been playing for years. Now every time I finish a puzzle the checkmark doesn’t show. Can’t tell which ones I finished. Very frustrating.

### 5/5 — Love it, but one suggestion

*2023-11-28, version 2.2*

I play this app every day! LOVE IT! 
But since it has to be played with the iPad in portrait position, it would be nice if the app would rotate 180 with the iPad. Sometimes I am charging the device while playing and would prefer the cord to be at the top (more out of the way, less bending/damage risk). Thanks!

### 5/5 — Asian Menace

*2023-11-08, version 2.2*

The Development team need to be aware of the pop-up screen, offering latest update. Coming from the far east, the developers need to be aware, this is a scam and as such needs disabling
