Nice game

good twist on tetris and sudoku

This is a fun challenging game. I would descibe it as mastermind with words. I have played a lot of word games and this is an orginal one. I like it.


Good

I agree with the comment above mine. Good game you can tell some effort was put into this game


A new take on an old classic

Jargon MG

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, I used to spend hours playing Mastermind with my sister and anyone else who might be interested.. Those colored dots were both the source of agony and exhilaration.. The author of this application has taken that classic and breathed new life into it, using letters, rather than colored dots (although the background colors tend to remind me a lot of those dots).. I've owned this app since version 1.0, and the improvements are outstanding and show a lot of well-thought out efforts by the developer. The latest version is no exception, and having the "floating tips" on the iPad app help focus your concentration when you're staring off into space wondering what 6 letter word to guess next. I would give this app 5 stars, and do hope for continued success. I do have one request, which is to be able to skin the UI so that there are times I can escape my youth and not be so distracted by the colors.


Fun

Simple concept and pretty easy to play in a line while waiting. I'd love to see the graphics changed from the purple color splash screen and the main screen background; and the iPad layout optimized a bit more for the space.


Love it!

Very original and lots of fun.


Update on a classic game

If you played any word games growing up you would love Deduce. My kids like playing it and with the suggest feature they didn’t get stuck thinking of words. It allows you to save games and share them with friends. A fun game to fill a few minutes.


Excellent Game

Deduce Player

Great game to pass the time, especially if you love word games. The UI is not super intuitive, but makes sense if you read the instructions. This is a minor complaint though, as the play is engrossing enough that you quickly forget about the UI.


For the logic minded

This is a modern and certainly slicker version of an old game that probably died when Jotto was born. I have enjoyed it for many hours and in a series of e-mails have appreciated the developer's willingness not only to give support but to consider modifications in coming versions. What is now missing but possibly in it's future is the ability to "duel" in real time with an adversary over the Internet with each selecting a secret word chosen to stump the other! It will get my five star rating when that appears.


This game kicks my butt!

I'm usually pretty good at word games but this one has definitely been a challenge! Awesome game - definitely gets my brain cells working.


Almost Great

Why can't we just use a keyboard? Why can't we unmark letters by touching them again? Why is it that I can't find the common letter usage info without touching the hint button until it either offers it or runs out of things to tell me without having offered to let me see it? I like this game a lot, but those things are irritating.
