### 4/5 — Wish there were more…

*2026-07-29, version 1.3.1*

I love this game so much, but there haven’t been any new levels so I’ve just been replaying the same ones for years. Wish the developers would return to it and add more.

### 5/5 — Calming Brain Exercise

*2024-07-06, version 1.3.1*

Loving the ad-less format.

### 3/5 — Small amount of free content disappointing

*2023-08-08, version 1.3.1*

Honestly this game is super fun and really clever! Unfortunately there’s only a small amount of free content (maybe an hour or two?). I would say it is probably worth purchasing if you buy games. If you just download stuff for free, this is still worth an afternoon.

### 5/5 — Great Game

Great game😀 Good  clean fun that exercises the brain. I love the Blue Ox series of games

Each puzzle is a fun journey with a great reward upon solving it!

### 3/5 — Woven Words

*2022-01-22, version 1.3.1*

Usage would be facilitated if it were not necessary to tap the keyboard every time you’re searching for a puzzle letter.
I understand the necessity for tapping the letter in the puzzle but not the keyboard.

### 5/5 — Hooked!

*2021-09-25, version 1.3.1*

I’m hooked on this game. It’s challenging & fun. I wasn’t sure about it when I first tried the free games. But as I got better at it, I really enjoyed playing it. I have to limit myself to one or two games a day so the pack will last longer. If you enjoy crossword puzzles, give this a try.

### 4/5 — Interesting

*2021-06-03, version 1.3.1*

A quiet challenge, basic and simple. Good way to pass some time challenging word skills.

### 5/5 — Woven Words

*2021-05-18, version 1.3.1*

Addicting, challenging, learning AND brain, word, vocabulary enhancing.  Love it!

### 5/5 — Fun, Challenging, Very Entertaining

*2021-05-05, version 1.3.1*

These are Terrific sets of puzzles that are always entertaining and occasionally Seriously Challenging, i.e., Perfect! 👏🥰
