Knotwords

Such a cool app, as always

Mini puzzle streaks fixed, but puzzlebook achievements are still broken.

I really like the concept and execution of this game. I like playing it a little bit each day. I use an iPad Air 2 and it gets quite warm when playing. I wonder if some optimisations could be made for older devices to reduce power use when playing.

One such example, in July’s tricky puzzle #16: Exactest is not a word. And your definitions for clues are wrong, or awkward, most of the time. July 9: daily classic: Ripes is not a word. Daily twist: wests is not a word.

Today I reached one full year of Mini daily puzzles! They are the first thing I do when I pick up my phone before breakfast. ❤️

Play just about everyday. Love that I can recover my streak on the few days I have missed.

I have over 700 days playing this game so, obviously, I do enjoy it. However, there is a quirk I wish it would fix. When I have completed a word correctly, and am filling out other squares, I don’t think the program should allow a letter to be inputted in a section where the word is already the correct word. I find it frustrating to think I know the next word only to find that the program has stuck letters where I didn’t want it and now I have to go back and correct what it has done. That’s my major complaint. Otherwise, I do love it, and believe that paying to be able to play the extra games is worth it.

There’s a section for the puzzles for then entire month and without buying the subscript you only get 10 of the 30/31 puzzles for the entire month. They also have a daily classic and mini puzzle but some days you have to skip unless you pay. So once the 10 puzzles for the month is done you may get 0-2 puzzles to play a day. I deleted the app after learning this.

SUCKED. It’s one thing to try to stretch people’s minds; it’s another to show off your own brilliance by including words that NO ONE USES in WAYS NO ONE USES THEM.

This game is fun and I keep coming back every day, but there are two annoying things that bother me. One, when selecting a daily puzzle and tapping on the name of the weekday, it highlights the button rather than just opening the puzzle. Every other button in the app requires a single tap, but this one requires two for some strange reason. Second, haptic vibration is enabled without any way to turn it off. I would much prefer to disable this so I can play in silence. Other than those two annoyances, I recommend this game and appreciate the lack of ads and tracking.
