Great game! Keeps mind active, with just right amount of challenge yo keep you going , but not get overwhelmed if you’re not a die hard word puzzle person

### 4/5 — Where is Tech Support?

*2020-12-05, version 1.0.2*

Level 281, Image puzzle number 7 has a tile with no letter. It just so happens that blank tile should have the letter in order to solve the puzzle. I sent three emails to tech support but no response!  I would appreciate if anyone can provide me with information to clear the puzzle.

And another thing, why the heck do I need to have a different nickname in order to post a review?!  Here are some of the nicknames taken:
