Very fun, relaxing word puzzle game
Wise&stillyoung
Will be excited to learn if there are new puzzle packs coming out anytime soon. I think the developers did a great job. I was able to solve most of the puzzles quickly, but it's a satisfying quick use of your mind.
Fun, until you finish the handful of puzzles they give you.

Its a nifty game until you easily finish the three levels of puzzles they give you. Then they dole out one new puzzle a day (finish-able in under 10 seconds). And even then, only a few 'back-days' are available. So not worth the price.
Waste of Money

The game is WAY to short and WAY to easy. It comes with 120 "puzzles" - through them in about 30 minutes. That, and there is nothing challenging about any of them nor is the puzzle design that unique. Simply find words in awkward accrostic poems. I found myself wondering what was the difference between easy and hard. With so many free word game apps, don't waste your money on this game.
Very satisfying (at first)

Updated review-- I love words, spelling, clues, crosswords, and creative visual or kinetic concepts, so this game concept is a lot of fun for me. It's very simple but elegant. I just hope they create more puzzles. I finished all but the daily puzzles in about an hour. The game developers are not reliable about posting a daily puzzle, and once it is posted, it takes me about ten seconds to complete. I have also seen daily puzzles repeated and errors in the puzzles that made them impossible to solve. My theory is that this app has flopped and is being abandoned, so those of us who paid $ for it will soon be out of luck.
A relaxing, challenging game

Enjoyable concept, wonderful sound, beautiful design, and excellent gameplay that provides a nice distraction that is simultaneously relaxing and challenging. Compared to other iOS games out there, it's like eating strawberries instead of potato chips—you feel better about yourself afterward.
Very pleasant experience

Audio and visual are very pleasant. You can slide or tap letters and they have different UX for each. QUESTION: how do I get it out of easy mode? I couldn’t find a way to do this. The level I’m on I would probably do with a young child, but would love to experience the other levels.
Pretty good word puzzle

The beginning 3-word puzzles are very simple to solve. I do appreciate the uniqueness of this game though. Hopefully as I progress they will become a little more challenging, and that I will find 600 puzzles, as promised in the description (go through them very fast).
