Word games in general, and cryptograms specifically, are a great way to stimulate cognitive thinking. Pockster Crypto is a great way to challenge yourself on your iPhone or other devices, and it is designed for easy pick up and play operation. The game automatically saves for those moments when you have to divert your attention to the outside world, and it auto-loads your position when you start the game back. Each puzzle saves its own state, allowing you to work on any or all of the 50 games in the collection as you wish. In this version I also added in hints in case you get stuck on a particular puzzle, but only two since I know you appreciate a good challenge. And once you solve all 50 puzzles in the collection, there are 10 more packs of 50 puzzles each available for purchase for only $.99 each. But this is completely optional, the first pack of 50 puzzles is always free for your enjoyment and mental exercise.
