The rules are simple: arrange the letters in each section so every word is valid, across and down. Each puzzle may seem difficult at first — but like all my favorite newspaper puzzles, it gets easier as you progress. Each step guides you naturally towards the solution. This is the kind of game I've been trying to make my whole career — I'm amazed Jack and I discovered this design. We hope you like it. -- Terms of use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Information Seller:Zach Gage Genre:Puzzle, Word Release:Apr 28, 2022 Updated:May 20, 2024 Version:1.0.23 Size:507.5 MB TouchArcade Rating:Unrated User Rating:Unrated Your Rating:unrated Compatibility:HD Universal Stronsay Well-Known Member Aug 6, 2015 987 230 43 #2 Stronsay, Apr 28, 2022 V clever concept; more elaborate than that other word game - having to think in several directions at once. solarnya Well-Known Member Jul 22, 2015 907 287 63 Male Close to Tokyo, Japan #3 solarnya, Apr 28, 2022 is it easy word game?

It is not seeming to show my progress from my iPhone on my iPad, although right now I am in an environment with very slow WiFi so maybe it is that. stfj Well-Known Member Sep 18, 2009 227 39 28 Male #5 stfj, Apr 29, 2022 Thanks! I don't think it's super easy, but there is a variety of puzzle sizes and the game is designed to be approachable. I'd suggest downloading it for free and trying a monday puzzle It doesn't yet, but we're hoping to add iCloud support very soon.

Gotters Well-Known Member Oct 27, 2016 114 31 28 #7 Gotters, Apr 29, 2022 Whilst I understand this I'm not really feeling it yet - I think my issue is I'm approaching it like a logic puzzle, whereby there is a logical correct move that you can play to start, where in reality it's not that sort of thing and you can make an educated guess on a first go, but its not a given. For example the second puzzle has ABL at the top, but LAB, ALB & BAL are all legitimate words according to the dictionary Stronsay likes this. Stronsay Well-Known Member Aug 6, 2015 987 230 43 #8 Stronsay, Apr 29, 2022 Took me a while to get into the flow of solving these puzzles. My approach now is viewing them as crosswords without clues, and, you are right, there can be multiple answers. I tend to go with the most common words, but take into account that they also have to mesh with others so that can limit choices. Sometimes I just guess. It’s easy to erase and try something else if it doesn’t work out. ShinHadoukin Well-Known Member Feb 20, 2015 972 143 43 #9 ShinHadoukin, Apr 29, 2022 Where are the theme settings?

There is so much free content that I fear many folks will not be motivated to make any purchase. I will definitely buy the lifetime version as soon as the developers add the feature allowing me to switch playing between my iPhone and my iPad.

V clever concept; more elaborate than that other word game - having to think in several directions at once.
is it easy word game? (especially for non native speaker of English) I love Zach's games so I want to support him, but sometimes it's impossible to pass many stages probably
Does this game use iCloud to mirror your progress across your IOS devices? It is not seeming to show my progress from my iPhone on my iPad, although right now I am in an environment with very slow WiFi so maybe it is that.
