Challenging game for those who like crossword and cryptogram puzzles! Once you complete the starter pack you have to purchase more puzzle packs to keep playing, but they’re not too expensive for what you get.
This is one of my favorite apps. Really like the different challenge levels. My favorite game is Acrostics by Cyn. Would like to see more of those. If you like word games and haven’t yet tried an acrostic, you should give this one a try. When I recently had a problem with the game not opening, I couldn’t believe how responsive Michael was. He had the problem fixed in no time. Really appreciate it!
For a few weeks, this app was great. Then after about a month, it started erasing my correct answers- at first, just a few letter, then nearly all of them. (I know they were correct because I used the Hint function to get them after noticing that obviously correct letters were disappearing.) Contacted customer support several times; no response. So eff u, Acrostics app!! UPDATE 2.14.21: Developer fixed this app and it’s now working just fine
Great Acrostic app packed with included puzzles in varying degrees of difficulty. I use it all the time. It’s nice to have these puzzles right on the phone—a perfect time killer. If you need to purchase more puzzles they’re pretty reasonably priced. Customer service is quick and pleasant, but you shouldn’t really need it; the app works reliably.
I need more of the easy one block puzzles (like the kids packs but for adults. I don’t want to buy a set with mixed levels. One block of difficulty is what I need. Would be cool if there was a hint or check for errors button on the top lever. Highly recommend. Really love this game and all of their others. Hardest levels of their others are fine, but not for this one.
The fact that I can’t play a whole set of the games because I don’t speak Spanish takes it down a star for me. The games I can play are very fun.
My Grandma introduced me to acrostic puzzles many years ago; we spent a lot of happy hours chasing down the right word trying to solve the quotations. I love this digital version that I can play anywhere, even while waiting in line at a drive-thru. The puzzles are enlightening as well as challenging, and help keep my old brain in decent functional order. In addition, the support for this app (from Egghead Games) is phenomenal! I’d rate it 10 stars if I could.
I love this app bc it makes my favorite kind of puzzles so much more accessible. However, I would really like to be able to delete or at least hide puzzles I do not wish to complete. Also, when I opened the app just now, the “library” was gone, and it looks like I have to do puzzles in the random order the app assigns instead of going in the order of the publishers I choose to do. I give three stars because this is now two updates where the interface has gotten less user friendly and more rigid. Please give an option to hide or delete unwanted puzzles, and/or let the user go by just the publishers and numerical order they want. Thank you
