Ratings and reviews

I use this app purely to get my brain going whilst drinking my early morning coffee. I only used the Quick and the Clueless crosswords (they're free to play) and between them they while away a decent 7 minutes or so. Quick often takes longer, but I'm learning new words or alternative definitions I hadn't realized. I'm 72, I should know better!!

I really enjoyed the free subscription, wish I had the budget to keep it going since we can no longer watch ads for tokens. Developers have explained why in response to some other reviews. Content wise, some of the clues are a bit weird and occasionally repetitive, but still far better than any other free crossword apps I've tried. The difficulty is unpredictable; I finished some of the classic puzzles in 3 minutes, but struggled for hours on the cryptic ones!

This is the best crossword for beginners. If you want to be good at crossword puzzles then practice here. The puzzles are very small and easy so it keeps your interest at peak. Because in other apps wgile solving regular crosswords which are so large and difficult that we start to lose interest when we get stuck. and that's the reason most people don't want to do crossword instead they will play Candy Crush Saga or Temple Run.
