Great game with minor flaws. The quotes are engaging and entertaining. Game play is intuitive and enjoyable. Ads are not too intrusive. In a game like this, it is important there be no punctuation errors, but these types of errors are common and impede solving the puzzles. The categories are helpful for solving, but terms like funny and inspirational are not topics... merely moods, leaving the topics to be virtually anything. The keyboard colors could be more distictive.

I love this game. I always wait to post a review until I've played the game for a while, at least a few weeks. I'm on puzzle #65, and the app has stayed consistent and fun. Most of the puzzles are challenging but not too hard, and some are easier. THE ADS AREN'T EVERYWHERE! They're only between puzzles, and you don't need to watch one for a hint if you get stuck.

Thanks for your detailed review, Katelyn! I'm not a fan of ads, either, and have tried to strike a decent balance for covering my expenses. For those who really don't like the ads, there's a very reasonably priced one-time purchase to remove them. I'm so glad you've been enjoying Cryptogram so much!

Downloaded the app today and have been playing for a while now. The puzzles vary in difficulty, most of them being decently challenging. Ads are not disruptive, one playing after every few puzzles, and all I've encountered so far are skippable after five seconds. Often ads in apps are aggressive, in your face, and annoying, but they're hardly a bother in this case and are, in my opinion, perfectly reasonable for a free app. I've encountered no bugs so far. Overall, a great experience!
