I love the game, but at this point, it’s repeating the puzzles. New ones need to be added on a regular basis.

The title of any given puzzle can be somewhat arcane. I previously reported that the Clue button was malfunctioning, but I was probably mistaken.

Too Many Repeats

Why bother to number the puzzles at all if they are going to be duplicates of prior levels? This is an awesome concept but sadly underdeveloped

— AuntStephieRulz

★★★★★ United States · v2.15 · 10 Apr 2026

Very nice

I am comparing this to the NYT game. It has just one small failing: if a word is on the list ( but not that puzzle), it shouldSHOW that it gets credit for hints.

Careless errors

It’s “Zinnia,” not “Zinna.” “Kelvin”is not a unit of measure. It’s a temperature scale on which “degree” is a unit of measure.

This one is extremely hard - unless you’re South American and have knowledge of such things. Is there no way to skip it and try the next puzzle?

Aggressive Ad Tab

If you accidentally press the wrong spot on the screen, a web page is opened dozens and dozens of times. I searched online how to disable this and read it’s part of the app. I could have paid to disable this in the app but decided to delete the app instead.

I enjoy playing this game, but once you get into the 100s levels, it begins to repeat the same puzzles, but in different order.

Good, but needs more puzzles

I do enjoy the game, but there is only 100 or less puzzles before the repeat indefinitely. I think even if you asked the community to help make some of the levels we can get a lot more for all of us to play.

Glitchy play

I love this game, but playing it is frustrating to me. It’s sometimes difficult to keep the letters highlighted and it can be hard to tap the letter you want without tapping a different one. I use a pencil on my tablet, but this game only lets me use my finger. I like playing, but I’m aggravated by the glitches.

needs more puzzles

they start to get repetitive very quickly. they’re also not nearly as challenging as the NYT strands which makes sense, but i still wish there was more variety.

LOVE! But wish ….

I love this game so much, I have been playing it daily …but I guess I loved it too much because it seems there are only so many puzzles before it resets back to the start. Developer: Any chance you will be adding new puzzles to the game? And if so: Will we be allowed to jump ahead? Or do we have to replay our way to the new ones?

Topic # 511

There is a flaw in Topic # 511 (Units of Measurement). After finding 3 words to get a clue, nothing is revealed. This prevents me moving to the next Topic. The game was fun and challenging through Topic #510 even though there was some repetition.

Don’t pay for this

Like many others, I really enjoy the game, but as soon as I paid for the ad free version, the UX fell off a cliff. The screen lags when trying to connect letters make the game unplayable to me. Sometimes it takes 4 tries of retracing the same letters very slowly to get them to register. I’d much rather tolerate the ads than this experience.

Topics Hidden Word Search

Needs more polish. Using on iPad, occasionally the clue and word count displays leave screen in portrait, reappear in landscape but then letter matrix overlays the display info for guess entries. This occurs randomly. App does not keep track of where I left off on a puzzle sometimes, causing a puzzle restart. But the game is enjoyable, just fix a few minor screen bugs.

Please speed up your game

The game is so laggy. Takes forever to register a press and when I start it’s swipe, I’m three to 4 letters into the word and it just starts doing the draw animation that doesn’t even pick up the last 3 letters. Very frustrating

Enjoying it!! But…

I’m really loving this game, however I think Topic #62 has an error and I’m unable to complete it. I think the word is “intestine”? But the letters are placed so you cannot make the word. Great little game otherwise :)

Game is stuck

I paid my $10 and now I find an error on topic 30 and I cannot move past that level because of it. What a waste of money. I wish I could get it money back, this game isn’t worth even $1.99. Brutal. Do not recommend. This isn’t the first error I’ve come across, it’s the first one I can’t get past. Now what?!?!? Highly disappointed. Don’t waste your money. Or your time.
