User Reviews and Ratings

★★★★☆ Great app but no updates for several years!

I love this app, but there have been no new puzzles for several years. It's easy to use and most of the puzzles are information and fun to solve. I like the more complicated puzzles, not the gag lines. However, the Sherlock Holmes puzzles are extremely difficult. I exhausted the Mumford puzzles quite a while ago, which makes the current version of the app worthless. PLEASE add more puzzles soon!

★★★★★ My favorite Anacrostics in electronic form

I’ve always loved Anacrostics. I’ve been doing them with pencil and paper for years. This app works just like the printed ones, but once completely filled in, you get immediate feedback as to whether all entries are correct. They’re fun and challenging, especially at the higher difficulty levels.

★★★★☆ Great app

One of the few I’ll actually pay for which says a lot. I’ve always loved this kind of puzzle. I’d love it it started with some “free” letters on the puzzle to get you started but all in all I really enjoy playing.
