Reviews: What People Think About Acrostic Crossword Puzzles

Rating: 5/5
This is by far the best acrostic format I have played. I have made more than 75 in app purchases for additional puzzles. Lately, it seems the “new” purchases are repeats of old puzzles. I don’t know if I should purchase any more add-ons. I don’t want to buy the same puzzles I have already completed. Can you tell me if this trend of repeating old puzzles continues?
Update: I have updated this review to 5 stars. Michael with customer support worked diligently to correct the problem of repeated puzzles. Resolved the issue and kept me informed all along the way. Would highly recommend!

This is one of my favorite apps. I’ve enjoyed acrostics since I was a kid, but doing them on paper required lots of transferring letters from one part of the puzzle to another (it reminded me of double-entry bookkeeping). With this app, both halves of the puzzle are kept in synch, so it’s easier to guess words and see if they fit. The puzzles themselves are well-constructed, with a mix of tricky and easy clues. And the add-on packs let you keep refreshing new puzzles at a reasonable cost. Many thanks to the developers!

I love this app bc it makes my favorite kind of puzzles so much more accessible. However, I would really like to be able to delete or at least hide puzzles I do not wish to complete. Also, when I opened the app just now, the “library” was gone, and it looks like I have to do puzzles in the random order the app assigns instead of going in the order of the publishers I choose to do. I give three stars because this is now two updates where the interface has gotten less user friendly and more rigid. Please give an option to hide or delete unwanted puzzles, and/or let the user go by just the publishers and numerical order they want. Thank you
About Acrostic Crossword Puzzles
Acrostic puzzles are crosswords with a twist: find the hidden quote. This combination of crossword and cryptogram provides an entertaining brain workout. Each letter in the quote is linked to a letter in one of the clue answers. As you fill in more and more answers, more letters will begin to fill the quote grid, until eventually the entire quote is revealed. Once the quote is partially filled in, you can also do this process in reverse – each letter you add to the quote will fill in the corresponding letter in the clue answers. By working back-and-forth, eventually the entire quote and all clue answers will be revealed.
