Word Cross Puzzle

I’m a massive, expert-level crossword fan and also enjoy Scrabble (though not a fanatic there) and found this game very enjoyable, calling on skills and challenges that come up in both games. The game play is smooth, the puzzles come in a variety of shapes, sizes and levels of difficulty (hardest and biggest being my favorite), and the inclusion of bonus points for off-board words and means to get hints is great. While the app is ad-supported, I found the ads generally less annoying than in other games. As final testimony to how much I enjoyed this game, I will mention that I passed through ALL 2100 levels, and received a message that I’m done with the game for now, until if and when more levels are added.

UPDATE: I’ve lowered my rating from 3 stars to 2 because the puzzles are so easy they can be finished in seconds. Then you yawn through ads longer than the time you played. I expected them to get harder as the levels increased, but they didn’t. I still think the game is O.K. but more for children than adults. A 10 year old might find them challenging and give the app a good review, but I think most adults will get bored fast. I don’t want to discourage or insult the programmers, but the reason I gave it a low rating is because we don’t mind watching ads as a trade-off for a well designed game, but I feel this one abuses that concept. I suspect the app is just an excuse to display as many ads as possible without investing much time and effort in development. ORIGINAL REVIEW: This isn’t a bad game; it’s just nothing special. I finished 75 puzzles to give the game a fair chance. It was easy and relaxing, but soon got boring. Maybe it gets more challenging later, but then I feel they should increase the difficulty sooner. Or maybe it’s for children. I got tired of sitting through so many invasive ads because there was nothing exciting to look forward to. Maybe if it had more interesting graphics, or there was a payoff in the form of seeing your score compared to other people, or you were working towards a goal, it would have retained my interest.

I love playing this game everyday, right now I am on 200. It’s a nice learning game for kids like me. But there is one problem, on my moms phone has challenge mini games but on my iPod it doesn’t have it. I think mini games should be able to be on any device, it is more fun having mini game on the app. But besides that I think this game is great and awesome and kids should get this app to learn more about letters and words so they can grow up having a smart brain.

This game is super fun, UNTIL the ads start invading game time. I timed it just because I was inundated with ads. I watched the 75 extra points at the end of the round. (30 secs). Then new round and immediately a 30 sec ad for Disney with no exit. Played one level, and another 30 sec ad for Disney. Another level, and at the end of that, I tapped “No thanks” instead of the extra 50 points. It ran another 30 sec ad for Disney even though I said No Thanks. So it forced a 30 sec ad anyway without the extra points. Then played 2 more levels and another 30 sec ad for Disney. So that’s 2 forced minutes of ads in less than 4 minutes! Yeah, takes the fun right out of it!

June 6, 2018 Perhaps with a few bug fixes this will be fun again, but right now, bring lots of patience, or skip it. The game freezes up much, to white screens or black ones. Also, when trying to get free coins, you have to watch a video that is 30 seconds in length. No problem, except six times in the last hour, it stops and you cannot get the video started and if you close out the video, you don't get your coins. Currently, this game is more frustrating than it is worth. Until it gets fixed, I'm out!
