Sudden malware

The game is fine. Basic crossword puzzles. All the sudden the game started trying to open up pages in safari at random with malicious intent. I would not download again if this is not addressed as it is putting people at risk.

Free?

If it’s free, why do they want a credit card number before I can play?

Fun game but…

It’s a fun simple game that can be played as a temporary distraction. My only problem is that I paid for the no ads option for a year and I’m still seeing ads. Haven’t been able to find a way to contact the developer so I’m leaving a negative review for now.

Virus

I was really enjoying the game but it keeps opening safari randomly and trying to “scan for virus”. To clarify this is the only app it is happening to on my phone. Went to go look at the reviews to see if anyone else was expecting the same issue and seems I am not the only one, hopefully they can get it fixed.

Hijack Ads

No longer an enjoyable experience. Ads are now hijacking game play. Deleted.

Help!

I have used this app for a couple years and loved it. Now every time I play a pop ad for fake McAfee scanning pops up and prevents me from playing. I tried deleting app and re-installing but it still happens.

Possible virus

Enjoyed it until recently there is some virus that keeps opening Chrome and saying I have a virus … does not happen with any other app on my iPad .. sad to say I deleted it

Virus

Don’t download. Contains a virus.

Fraudulent

The app says no ads for a one time purchase. There are repeated and disruptive attempts to sell coins , new games so that there are frequent ads masquerading as opportunities to improve the experience. My best guess is that the description was written by a “Nigerian Prince “ who for 100 dollars will give you a million. Absolute disgrace.
