Arrow Words is a classic crossword app with a useful twist. In arrow words puzzles, the clues are shown right in the puzzle grid, making them easy to view and play on the iPad screen.
This lovingly produced app includes 400 all-new Arrow Words puzzles in 4 levels. Easier levels use simpler words and a smaller grid, perfect for a short break. Harder levels have tougher clues and larger puzzle grids for hours of challenging fun. Also, careful editing and a huge pool of words ensure that clues don’t repeat too often.
The sound and graphics are also designed for true crossword aficionados. Choose from three visual interfaces that recreate the atmosphere of the crossword in the Sunday paper. If you miss using your favorite pen to solve puzzels, you’ll love the optional sounds of a moving pen as you fill in the squares, custom recorded for each letter!
PLEASE NOTE: our puzzles are created by British puzzle editors especially with players from Commonwealth countries in mind. Of course, North American players are welcome to join the fun.
Features:
• Once you’ve solved an Arrow Words puzzle on the iPad, you’ll never go back to paper!
• 400 puzzles, 4 difficulty levels and grid sizes
• 3 interface options: Classic, News, Colour
• Optional sound effects and background music
• iPod function support
A great way to kill some time while waiting at airports, appointments, etc. Keeps your mind working with the different levels.
It seems to be british so for the US there will be different uses of words and spellings. But it's still doable. I like the set-up.
I have to keep remembering that it's British. I've never encountered some of the words. The clues are sometimes impossible to read, the font is so small.
I've enjoyed playing - great clues and words. But the keyboard keeps disappearing, so I have to turn my iPad off and on again to continue playing. That's no fun.
So far I'm really enjoying this app, there's multiple levels of difficulty so as you get more practice you can advance your skills. My only gripe so far is the white on white grid background makes it sometimes difficult to distinguish how much of the puzzle is left to solve.
