Cross word Jewell’s
Very confusing game
Fun Game
I love this game. Very well designed and user friendly. I wish there was another level of difficulty between “Easy” and “Medium”. Easy is - easy, but medium is more like difficult.
My favorite of all my puzzles!
I LOVE this one!
Brainwave
It keeps the eyes and brain working alert. From U.N.W.
Greena
Really love the game. Wish there was a home button. Or, I guess I wish I knew where it was.
Crossword jewels
This is a wonderful game to play the challenges a person or it can be very simple for a younger person. I love it and have learned a few words I actually did not know existed… all the Boy Howdy games are really great and are my favorite games to play… keeping me challenged in my elderly years
This is not a crossword puzzle
There are no clues as in a traditional crossword puzzle. For one thing, many letters are already filled in and you’re left to simply guess what the remaining letters might be. If you enjoy using your knowledge to solve a puzzle based on written clues, look elsewhere. Deleted.
Get rid of the red blinking boxes
Love your games. This crossword is well done, challenging and interesting. But please fix: when I click on “check my work,” those blinking red boxes drive me nuts. They blink several times and linger.
Never enjoyed an app so much
Love, love, love my Boy Howdy games. I’d recommend them to anyone looking for great games that challenge you and are so satisfying. Warning: you’ll want more and more of them every chance you get to play. I must play them before bedtime to sleep well. Great easy to use formats…great company. Thank you BH.
Reqires checkup
Was brilliant now is frequently buggy, locks up and has to be restarted surely I am not the only one to notice.

Very Enjoyable
I’m enjoying it a great deal. I’ve done more than 2,000 puzzles so far.
Could be good
Advert shown whilst doing the puzzle. Play in landscape only. You have to keep an eye on where you put you fingers. Deleted it.
Boy Howdy is Best!!!!
Their games are fun, challenging without being draining, but best of all SMALL BANNER ADS at bottom of games! I have all of your app games and regularly jump btwn them all to get my fill of solitaire, crosswords, and Yatzy fun! Thanks for lots of fun and NO ANNOYANCE!!!!
Fun!
Challenging and no baby stuff
Please stop interfering....
I have many of your free games & they are all great ....but suddenly when I'm just in the middle of one the screen goes blank & then it's shifted to opening an app for a different game !! It's very frustrating to have this interference & if it continues I will have to delete all of your games!! They are spoiled by this interference & I really love them all but this is such a NUISANCE...PLEASE STOP IT...L
Stimulating Game
Love this game! Makes my brain think, get excited when I make a word & get lots of letters.
Great time water
Enjoyable app for filling in lost moments
Great app
I really like this app. It's almost perfect. No annoying ads after every game is the best feature. The only thing I wish they tweak is the nber of times squares flash when you check for errors. It gives me vertigo. It flashes five or six times. Also it flashes all the blank squares as well, which is unnecessary.
Quite addictive
A great little gem.
One Favorite
One of my favorite Favorites!!! I am a Big Fan of Boy Howdy Games. Thank you for these “no timer”, “no ads” games. You are the best!
Crossword Jewels
I'm addicted to this game, my grandkids think I'm a brainiac! I get them to try on the easier levels.
Excellent game,
The best Crossword I have ever played. Congrats!
Challenge variation
I like this different way of completing a crossword. Challenges your word and spelling acquisition. Allows you to choose varying levels of difficulty depending on your abilities or mood.
