Logic Puzzles Daily

I love doing logic puzzles before I go to bed because it’s very relaxing to me. I’ve had this app for a few years and have recently noticed that when I click to watch a hint, I’ll make it through the video and receive my hint, but the hint that they give you is incorrect, so your whole puzzle ends up wrong. So I waste 30 seconds off timer on the hint, and then I have to waste another 30 seconds by checking all my answers to be sure that they gave me the correct hint, which most of the time they don’t. This is very frustrating to me as I usually can’t make it past all the instructions more than one time without getting a hint because I don’t feel like I have enough info, and it keeps me from getting relaxed because I’m irritated lol. Otherwise, I love this game. I have spent money for no ads and have purchased multiple extra packs. I will keep playing but I do hope they fix this issue.

I love doing logic puzzles and do them all the time at home so I know what to expect. This app is fun and there are some good puzzles but I really dislike how they don’t tell you important info you may need. For example, if a logic puzzle is going to put in “Mr. —“ or “a boy wore purple” they usually tell you which name belongs to which sex. Most of these puzzles are made in England and have English names and dishes, and some of us who are not from England don’t know Basil is a boy’s name or if a certain dish has beef or not. Also, if you complete a puzzle but do not watch the entire ad after, the game erases your progress for your game. I understand if the game has ads but to erase everything you did because you didn’t watch an ad is insane. I do like the app though and I wouldn’t mind paying for other packs but $2 for 20 puzzles seems a bit much to me, especially when you can get an entire logic book for $5 with 100 puzzles in it. I’ll probably end up deleting this app when I finish all the free puzzles. Also, with the new update that came out today (May 9th, 2018), things are zoomed in really strange for the iPhone X. I’m not deducting this from the app score but it is a current issue.

Among the different Logic Puzzle Apps that I’ve tried so far, this is the best one. Took away two stars for typos/glitches (professor comments) and for making me do a review to unlock some puzzles. However, gave a star back for not having intrusive ads or a subscription format. Having purchased many Logic Puzzle magazines in the past, I don’t consider $1.99 too expensive to unlock 60+ puzzles under the Daily section. Appreciate that I get a free Daily puzzle and that the Professor’s comments when I fail to beat his time are not really mean. I am a leisure puzzler, so having a character throw my slower time in my face with harsh or rude comments would have made me delete the app immediately. Having completed maybe 70+ puzzles, I’d rate their difficulty in the easy to medium range since I haven’t had to use scratch paper for additional notes.

Out of all the puzzlers I’ve tried, this one is by far the most complete. There’s a free daily puzzle and the previous 3 days are also available, so right away you’ve got endless free content. One purchase does away with ads so that’s an easy sell. The best value are daily packs. $1.99 buys you puzzles from a two month period (62-63 puzzles) with packs dating back over two years. As for features, it’s got all the ones you should have for this style of puzzle (believe me, many others don’t). But I’ve got two nitpicks: 1) it has a timer (inherently there’s no problem with this, but I wish you could disable or blank it out) and 2) the hint system doesn’t explain the hint (you just get a box filled in or ruled out). But these are nuisances. There’s no downside to this game. Highly recommended.

I just tried this app. I do a lot of logic puzzles and I’m always looking for new ones. The puzzles have been interesting and enjoyable. I would give five stars, if not for a couple of things. This is the only logic puzzle app I’ve tried that has ads, which is annoying. I see that buying a puzzle pack will stop the ads, so if I keep this app I will do that. The first thing that bothers me is that the timer doesn’t stop until all the cells are filled in, even if the puzzle has been solved. I wish I could just fill the grids on the top row, or the left-hand column. The other thing that bugs me is that there are punctuation errors. For example, the first puzzle I played had apostrophes in the surnames of all the couples. (Mr. and Mrs. Smith are “the Smiths”, not “the Smith’s”.) It doesn’t affect the playability, but it drives me crazy. If I delete this app, that will be the reason. If those two things were changed, it would be a five-star app.
