Nice selection

I like that there are different choices in this app. Fun little way to take a break & use your brain.
Wonderful app

My one complaint is the anagrams in puzzle mode often make more words than are listed. It would increase the difficulty of the anagram puzzle were more answers required which I would like because I'm playing this type of game not only for fun but also to combat brain fog from a medical condition. The word searches also follow noticeable patterns, but I've always had an easy time with them. In the anagram puzzles at least one very crude swear word is often an answer, (c**t), this should be changed. Overall it's an enjoyable game, just a little on the easy side.
Frustrating!

The easy level is fine, but the medium level crosswords are all messed up. The answer grid does not match the clues given. The only way to complete a puzzle is to guess words that might fit the spaces. Please fix this mess! So glad I didn't PAY for it!!
It would be great if it weren't broken

I really like that there are all different types of games on here, but the crossword becomes unplayable after the easy level. The clues to the across words are all messed up: the numbers are wrong, some of the hints don't even exist on the puzzle, and if you happen to get the word by chance it clearly does not correspond at all to the clues. I was contemplating buying the full version, but not now, because it would be a waste of money on a broken product.
Fun Until it Breaks

My favorite was crossword puzzles, but starting at Medium 3 level the "across" numbering is messed up.
Too many problems

I mainly like the anagrams, but often the letters make many more words than there are spaces for. So if you come up with six 4-letter words and there are only spaces for four, the last 2 are not counted, so it feels like you're not getting acknowledged for the skills the puzzle is supposed to reward. More frustrating: when I try to watch the "watch to unlock" ads, the screen goes blank and no ad plays, so nothing is unlocked. I've completed the puzzles I had been able to unlock, can't unlock any more, so now this app is an inert waste of space. Too bad, it was fun for a while.
Flawed at best

I'll grant that the individual puzzles are fun, but the glitches and ads reduce the overall value of this app significantly. Some puzzles appeared twice under different headings, some changed identities after I closed the app and came back, one puzzle simply had too few letters to be solved, and a particular word search even refuses to remember that it's been solved: whenever I reopen the app, it says it's untouched, but I look and all the words are still circled. Very poorly executed, too buggy fir completion-oriented people like me, too slow with ads for casual players, not an app I would recommend.
