Better than scrolling through twitter. -- Davekerrvault2, 2024-12-15 ### ***** "Cryptic" Great selection of crosswords, excellent value -- GRM544, 2024-12-04 ### ***** "Entertaining" Excellent mix of anagrams etc. -- Thinkers., 2024-09-21 ### *---- "Not free" I only got 2 free games then it locked, requesting money. No thanks . -- kev b 1954, 2024-07-19 ### ***** "Brilliant" Great app lots of crosswords with no annoying adverts -- Isaw3ships, 2024-06-19 ### ***** "Great Fun & Very Good Value" Really enjoyable. Reasonably difficult without being impossible and they are UK centred crosswords. Extremely good value for money. -- Trevlac1812, 2024-02-25 ### ***** "V good" Got this one after completing the Learn Cryptic Crosswords app, would highly recommend (although I do miss the explain answer feature - turns out my vocabulary isn’t as broad as is needed to crack cryptics!) -- somebickname, 2023-12-23 ### ***** "At last!" After trying a dozen or more crossword apps over many years I’ve finally found one that is really good. I find cryptic crosswords far more challenging, and it’s English rather than American. I liked it so much after trying a couple that I purchased all 6 packs straight away, and that is the first time I have ever made an in-app purchase in the 12 years of iPad usage. Just brilliant, thanks.
