Cryptogram Tale

I would have considered giving this game 5 stars except that the ads do not honor sound settings. When I don’t want sound, I don’t want sound.

I love this app. Solving cryptograms while reading classic literature. It forces me to pay attention to how the masters honed their craft. Excellent entertainment across multiple genres!

I love cryptograms, so to do entire stories is a lot of fun. Unfortunately, lots of the “classic” stories are becoming more disturbing/offensive as I move from one to the next, and I feel that I’m usually pretty gracious with others’ taste. I do believe that good literature should make people think, but after so many of these stories, I’m really starting to wonder who selects them. There are so many stories, which is super cool, but I’m starting to lose interest due to the selection. I wish there was more variety.

These are the best! My favorite way to pass the time.

This game falls into the cash trap of “we can’t load ads even if you have great internet”. This happens some times in other mobile games too.

It's a great way to wind down at night or to pass a little bit of time. I love that theres an ongoing story with it. It really sets it apart from other games like it

Only game I play that first freezes, then crashes my iPhone 15 Pro, impervious to repeated manual attempts to reboot. The whole freeze, lock, crash, restart process takes 10-15 minutes to complete, and happens at minimum twice a day. Bad enough that it’s so annoying, but killing my time and my phone is wearing me out. To reiterate, I have had no other game in the years I’ve used mobile apps, cause this issue. Please address, help, fix so I can go back to the 5 Star Joy this game has given me.

I am not that into cryptograms, but gradually revealing a story as you decode is really entertaining. My spouse and I spent all evening on the first dystopian story, deciding to buy the full version after 15 minutes, and it boggles my mind how much content is included with this. This is right up there with GeoGuessr for repeat entertainment value.

This is my favorite game. But it is frozen and I’m in th middle of war of the worlds.

It’s like reading and solving a puzzle at the same time! The stories are enjoyable to read, the gameplay is fun, the interface is user-friendly. My new favorite game!
