Great concept
A patient fan

Wonderful idea using stories instead of quotes. Hours of enjoyment to be had. I would give it 5 stars if not for the inane short stories of M. Stanley Bubien. His contrived dribble passing for sentimentality or irony makes me cringe. And his nonsense accounts for a third of the short story inventory. Please. No more. Otherwise keep up the great work.


Don’t care for this. When I do cryptograms I expect to finish and go on and not very well written.

One of the sentences in one of the grams was, “ One bright morning in the Chicago lying-in hospital, a man named Edward K. Wehling, Jr.” Uh,...yeah? What about him? I’m easily confused, I guess, but I hate bad grammar. I’ll find another.

Hey! This is really fun. If you like word games go for it!


Excellent way to spend my time

If you like cryptograms this app is definitely worth your while. I like that it has a good variety of different styles from short tales, ancient tales, poems, and other styles of writing. And with a repertoire of different authors each cryptogram exposes you to a different style of writing. What makes it even more fun for me, is that, by the time you’re done with a cryptogram you will have also read a new book or story, which can take as long as you want (you can pick how lengthy a tale you wanna tackle and it saves your progress automatically so you can take as many days, months, or years to finish one). And if you get bored you can always work on a new one or go back and pick off where you left off on an old one. I’d also like to add, the developer was very responsive when I submitted feedback about a small bug I came across on a prior version which was fixed pretty quickly on the next update. Thank you for taking my feedback!


Great game but can’t close ads

I really like the game - quirky stories, good functionality. HOWEVER, the ads lock up the game CONSTANTLY! It is ridiculously frustrating and I’m now looking for an alternative game. Please fix this issue! The last update said this was fixed but it’s just getting worse.


I’m confused
really good and useful

Is it me or is there no order to this game, it’s random letters assigned to other random letters. It’s just a guess and check game.


I’m too dumb for this

I’m sure that if I actually knew how to solve these this would be a great fun. But I don’t know, maybe it’s because I’m only 10. But you know. I want to know how to do this. But I don’t. ?


Ads are a problem
Mithjube

The gameplay is very enjoyable, but I can’t close the ads that occasionally pop up. The x is too far in the corner. I end up having to close and reopen the game to continue playing.


Too Hard

Way too hard


Ads

Wanted to enjoy the game but the ads are unbearable. I literally was not able to hit the x and had to close the app every time.
