Crostix Free

I love these puzzles! Some of them are pretty tough, and I have to ask the Internet, but then I do my best to remember and voilà… I’ve learned something new! Here’s a quick tip for those of you who have finished them and want to start again. Just uninstall then reinstall the app. When it prompts you to buy puzzles, click already purchased and you can restore them, blank and ready to go again.

I love that I can see the clues and the puzzle at the same time and the size is easy to read. The clues are challenging, but not impossible. I don’t consider it cheating to use the internet and a few hints!! Hours of enjoyment for the price.

Just right in difficulty for me. Love the literary sensibility of the quotes. The “letter” hints are a big help.

Nice layout and nicely challenging. Welcome spread from easier to harder. Well worth the $.99. Only real disappointment is that the explanation of the source of the quote is often minimal, sometimes not even mentioning the book!

Clues are way too hard, even for easiest sample puzzles!! Bummer because I really like the app’s layout and design! 4 stars for everyone better than me!! I can’t even get it by doing the quote without using many hints!! Recommend a super easy level. Developers are obviously wow smart ;-).

Love this app. That is all.

Love acrostics? Get this app. Easy to use, lots of books (you'll totally get $.99 worth of enjoyment out of each)!

Very nice game. The one small change it needs is to stop the words on the grid from wrapping.

My only problem with this app is that I ran out of puzzles months ago, and they only added more very recently. For some reason, I couldn't buy the new puzzles on my old downloaded version even though I updated it, so I had to download another copy. Since it's free, that's not a big problem. Anyway, I have loved doing crostics for many years, and was very pleased to find an app for them. It works fine on my rather old iPad.

I like games like this anyway to try to keep my "brain age" down, but this one is so much fun! Thanks!
