Horrible app that never loads
stupidAppzzz
Just spins forever! Tried to have three other friends load it and no one could get it to launch. We all deleted it and give you 1 star, 0 stars would be more appropriate!
Criminally underrated

This is simply the only competitive crossword app of its kind, and it does the job splendidly! There are occasional errors and quite a few very hard questions, but that’s why you have two people playing and it makes it truly competitive, no matter your level. There should more people playing this!
Good app, bad puzzles

I only play this with people I know, who agree to use only their minds as a resource. No looking things up on the internet, in books, or asking other friends. The app works well, but starting a match can be a little finicky. We agree to never use peeks, but the stealing mechanic is fun. All of that is overshadowed by the feeling that the puzzles are simply bad. They seem to be programmatically generated from a database of clues and answers. You end up with puzzles that lack cohesion and are often too difficult due to too much esoterica, rather than being difficult due to cleverness. On top of that, the answers can be poorly constructed and often break NYT crossword conventions.
Fun Game, Not Perfect

Our family always has head-to-head matches going on, and it’s been really fun. There’s a lot of friendly rivalry that goes on inside the games and in real life as a result. Sometimes the clues don’t make sense or I’m pretty sure the words don’t exist. But for the most part this is a very enjoyable app.

Love it! So cute!
Director of everything awesome
The sounds are cute and the design is nice and clean. Fun game!
Good but could use improvement

Great setup - works well and is fun and addictive. (And as a note to other reviewers - If the people you're playing with are cheating you need new friends. That isn't the app developers fault.) The main things I'd personally like to see - integration with the Facebook friend list (many of my friends have never registered in Game Center) and in game chat or messaging of some kind rather than just taunts. Otherwise, bravo on a solid game that's fun as long as your friends aren't cheaters. :)
Don't cheat please!

I love this app! Easy to cheat I guess but I won't and if others do it's their own bad sportsmanship! I highly highly recommend!
