Years of enjoyment. Even after solving everything, more content comes along at a decent rate to keep me coming back. I've been doing cryptograms (or cryptoquips in the old newspaper column) for most of my life. There are hundreds of puzzles with a good variety of difficulty, from very easy to very hard, with most being in the easier side of middle range for me - if you see word patterns it helps. The quotes are generally positive. Interface is nice. Change fonts & size. Easy to switch puzzles

I enjoy cryptograms and there is a nice variety here with no ads which is wonderful. Not too keen on the type selection, it's too easy mix apostrophes with commas, but not too bad once you get used to it. The scoring is based solely on the time it takes to solve the puzzle. To be honest a timer is all I need. Not sure what kind of scoring rubric would work better than what's here. Hope everyone enjoys this app as much as I do.

The app is pretty clean and intuitive, and has some nice display options. Unfortunately, I didn't play it long because I couldn't find an option to turn off all instances of a letter being filled in at once, and because it seems like all of the puzzles include some pre-filled letters as hints. The latter seems pretty standard in cryptogram apps, but I do wish there were an option to turn it off. I do like that you can change how the puzzle is encrypted, though!

Thanks for the detailed feedback, Ken! Early feedback led me to build the game on the principle of matching characters, so I'm afraid changing that to allow manual entry is a big, long term task. You can adjust the difficulty slider to completely disable revealed letters in the settings, however. Let me know if this isn't working for you.

What’s new

No more fiddling with revealing letters: you can just ask for a hint!
