Crossword Jigsaw Puzzles – Education Game Review
Crossword Jigsaw Puzzles is a Education/Puzzle/Word game from Sarah Pierce, first launched in 26th September 2013.
It’s rated 4+ and currently has 288+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Crossword Jigsaw Puzzles Stand Out
A crossword puzzle has been broken into jigsaw pieces. Can you put it back together?
To solve the puzzle, look for pieces that can be joined to make words. Try to build up until you have assembled the whole thing!
The easiest level has just four pieces, while the hardest level can have more than 40. This makes the game perfect for both beginners and experts.
We dare you to conquer the fiendish Impossible level! It might seem like it is ACTUALLY impossible at first, but I assure you it is doable. (While making the game I practiced a lot, and now I looove this super hard level).
Features:
- Unlimited free puzzles
- 5 free levels
- 10 total levels
- Tracks your records and averages
- A fun way to keep your brain sharp!
This Education game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
We have a select group of word games we play every single day and this is our favorite. Its challenging at times but fun at the same time. You wont be disappointed. No ads either which is a big plus.
Sarah, you start out by misspelling across in the directions. Not a good start for a word game.
Fun and challenging, and very different from all the other puzzles. Love it.
This is a fun and challenging game that keeps your brain sharp. Our kids like to play with us and they love it.
Great game for puzzle and word lovers.
Skeptical at first the way others have reviewed. Now its a great job.
Whether we have a little time or a lot. The puzzles match our time. Great fun and relearning to spell.
Wish we could rate six stars. This is sudoku with words keeps the player mentally sharp by analyzing a 3 or 4 or 5 letter group to determine how it can fit into a larger word. Fun to play with school age kids. It shows them prefixes, suffixes, etc and how they fit with the root word. Congratulations on an excellent app.
Awesome game. Ive been playing we for years and still love the challenge.
Fun game plus the hints every once in awhile help.
It is challenging and fun. The app helps boosts your thought process and spatial.
This game is exactly what we were looking for! Smart and fun, not your everyday crossword puzzle.
We love this app! It is addictive.
Love this app! The puzzles are both fun and challenging. The only thing that bothers us is that we can't see how many of each type of puzzle exist — how many tiny, how many small etc. Our OCD wants to complete all of them and be able to keep track! ;-).
Love the fast pace and the challenge. Makes us remember how to spell rather than using texting type shortcuts all the time, which is refreshing to our brain.
One of our all-time favorites. Simple yet addictive, it will get your gray matter moving.
Great game! It definitely exercises your brain. We love it! It's tough & fun.
Question: we cannot update apps from outside the apple store. That is due to a password vanishing from our memory which disallow updating the app.
We just downloaded this and we are in love already.
This is a wonderful and challenging game.
This is a great entry level game.
Actually makes you think–it's all right there, but not.
It's fun when we can solve them fast, a little less so when it takes longer to solve a smaller puzzle than a huge one. Also, small glitch where we can stop the timer by pausing, going back to the menu, and going back into the puzzle, which can nullify the point of the fastest time table (oops).
