Love it

I love this app just wish they could add strands

Horrible game

When I first started playing the game it was very fun and enjoyable but then I clicked on a game and it said something and then I clicked on the game and it wanted to read it and then got back to it it would not let me continue playing the game and that is why I is a horrible game.

Daily, stimulating fun!

I do some combination of Wordle, the Mini, Spelling Bee, and the Crossword every day and find enjoyable challenges in them that I don’t want to miss. The only reason I don’t give five stars is that with the clue – word connection, there is a line between obscure or perhaps ultra-witty and nonsensical, and the Crossword too often goes over that line.

Bad worlde bad

Pretty good app but man the wordle creators are lackkkking.. smh

NYTimes

Always superior crossword puzzles

I love the NYT crosswords!

One thing I wish you would change: your puzzles during the week are available only after 9:00 CST. It is 5:00 CST on the weekends. Please consider changing the availability of all puzzles to 5:00 CST. No matter, I will always be a fan. BTW, I’ve been a subscriber for decades. Robert Early

Have to pay for spelling bee hints now?!

I’ve played spelling bee for years and suddenly today when I ask for hints a screen comes up about NYT all access and if I click the X to get out, it goes back to the puzzle😡 I paid for access to all the games - it seems that hints for the games included in my package should be included! I’m hoping this is a bug rather than a policy change.

Fun games, tough puzzles.

I have to admit I wasn’t happy when NYT stopped providing the file for crossword puzzles. I was a fan of across lite and had been using it for many years. Thing is the app has other games and diversions that are really fun. It’s been a couple of years now and I quite like the solving experience that the app offers.

This is the worst game

This is the worst game! Period

Great App!

Great app super useful to keep my Wordle streak going. New WordleBot feature is really fun and all around a great app. Would love to see a dark mode for the app though.
