Obsessed!
Sat Sep 13 2025 ShelleybeanRadio

I started playing it as the side game on the word search game. At first I just didn’t understand it and thought it was annoying but once I started playing and understood it I became obsessed and searched out this app. There are several others that are similar but THIS ONE is the best by far! I’ve found that several games are good at first but then reveal that they are all about auto play ADS and paying real $$$ for advancement but THIS ONE is different! It’s one of the few that has an option to pay a small amount for a LIFETIME OF NO REQUIRED ADS. Sure you can watch ads for extra rewards but it’s not at all necessary. The ONLY PROBLEM if you even consider it a problem is that it is positively addictive! One of the very very few games that I have rated ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. I refuse to rate games before I have played a while and most get deleted before I get that far.

AI opponent can be annoying
Thu Dec 18 2025 Xin-Young

Good crossword game although disabling WiFi or turning on airplane mode is a MUST to avoid ads. Removing 1 star because the AI opponent should be an optional mode, as it requires other strategies to “win,” like anticipating its moves and withholding letters to ensure you complete the word. I believe most players simply want to solve the puzzle. The AI opponent does, however, inadvertently provide you with hints as it works to solve the puzzle alongside you, which can be helpful, but can quickly become more annoying than anything as it is programmed to stay within a certain range of your points. It doesn’t matter if you play well or not. The opponent will always have the necessary letters to earn the points it needs to stay at a competitive level based on your play. In short, the AI always has access to any letter you currently don’t have and can play any of them, as needed, to stay at a certain difficulty level. You will at times feel cheated

Crossword fill in

At first this game seemed really hard. But as I kept going back to it every time I had some time I found it to be really fun and I like the way it exercises your brain into thinking well what could that word be? Also, sometimes when you just had to fill in one letter that stumped me at first, but now I get it. It’s very relaxing and it’s very rewarding when you find out that you filled in every. Grid and box and you can be rewarded by your rating and going onto the next puzzle. I would recommend this for anyone who loves board games cause this one is great.!♥️♥️♥️♥️

Beware! Game is rigged!

I love this game but the AI is ridiculous. The computer Almoat always uses all its letters and fills in words that seem impossible as you hardly ever get the letters yiu need to complete words. However, the computer always seems to have all the letters, especially if you jump out ahead of the computer. Once you jump out ahead, the computer ALWAYS bounces back and ties the game or comes close to tie the game. It's ridiculous. I should record my screen so I can show people how the game literally cheats. If you play one or two letters, the computer will play one or two. If you use up all your letters to get the extra 5 points, the computer seems to jump out of nowhere to tie it or jump ahead of you. It always happens. I'm thinking of deleting the game. I was going to pay to remove the ads but now that I know the game is rigged, I will never pay. It also gives you the worst letters or multiple of the same letter. The computer ALWAYS has different letters because it ALWAYS uses all its letters every turn. The game is rigged and cheats.

Great game!!!

I love this game! This is a great game! I don’t write reviews on many games but I have had a lot of fun playing this game. I love the competition aspect and the clues at every turn. One thing that needs to change is the clue letter placement. When the game places letters and finishes a word you don’t get points for finishing that word. In the last match I played, the game placed multiple letters at once in all three of my big ticket words. I lost 25 points because the game took them away from me. A couple of options for those letters being placed- one letter per word at a time not two or three or the game should never finish a word for the player so the player gets the points they are trying to earn or just don’t finish the long words for the player. I know the second one is a very difficult ask. The first it third options could work. Thank you for this game.

Great game

This has been my favorite game for a while. I have played well over 100 games but the more I play the longer and more annoying the ads become. It’s to the point now that they won’t even close. I hate to give up this game, but I can’t fight with the ads. Update: 1,26,26 now this game has ads pop up in the middle of you playing and then it blacks out and the game doesn’t continue. You have to go through shutting your phone down, or playing something else until it decides to reset itself. It gets worse the longer you play.

Great game, but there are definitely ads
Mon Jan 12 2026 LH23Mich

I do enjoy this game, but the ad for this game claimed there are no ads. Well, there are definitely ads. I don’t appreciate being lied to just to draw people into downloading this. I just want you out there to know the truth. Next day follow up: the ads have increase by 3x. Now I get them during a game, sometimes twice, and between rounds. I am considering deleting the game. I don’t want to support false advertising. Last message: I don’t think the developer will care, but I want everyone to know, I deleted this app purely because of false advertising but mostly because there are WAY to many ads.

Lots of Ads
Mon Jan 26 2026 Binkaaar9

First levels are ad free but once you get to like level 4 or 5, there’s Ads after almost every round of letters you enter into the crossword. I was on level 6 and a movie ad popped up while I was in the middle of playing, like mid thought, it surprised me. Most games I play on my phone are free so I expect to have ads but they’re usually not this excessive. They’re typically after you beat or lose a level, not each time you do something in the game. Other than that I like the crossword puzzles but unfortunately I will have to delete the game since the ads are so annoying.
