Community Insight:
Hello! Want to take you both for creating wonderful games! We are an Activities Director and we utilize them everyday with our residents during our Brain Boot Camp! We cast the games to our huge TV screen and off we go…..brain push-ups are piece of cakes now! Wishing for more games! Get going….we are counting on you.
We love these kinds of puzzles. This app is so fun. We use it daily on our Facebook page. #Cartoonacy. We hope there is an update soon.
……….By the time we stop laughing over the cartoons, we have lost points to taking too long to answer!!!! This is absolutely fantastic brain game….we love the illustrations and cannot help either groaning at the puns or laughing over the cleverness…we hope you intend to do more! We now have most of your games, gang, and they are a delight to play….There are enough games by this crew, so no matter your mood, theres a game for you! Oh our Goodness….The puns are sooo good! They get the appropriate GROANS from us…. Im in the second set of cartoons and am looking forward to playing all the sets? By the time we finish these, we HOPE there are more to go! (HINT, HINT!!) FYI: YOU CAN REMOVE WRONG LETTERS BY TAPPING THE LETTERS! They go back nicely into the pack.
We cant write a review on the game itself because every time we click PLAY, then click on the first set of free cartoons, it immediately crashes. Tried it several times with the same result. Then we tried to click on the next set that you have to pay for and the window to pay pops up. No crashing. Aint nothing free anymore.
We used this app as a brain break for our middle school students in class. We would do several a day and they LOVED it. They begged to do more and wanted it every day. We just wish that more would be created to play.
This game is cute, but way too easy and boring. Maybe it would be ok for kids to play.
This game couldn't be any more fun, or any more clever or creative. Tore ourselves away from its brilliance just long enough to post this, and then we're back in. Great stuff.
Loved the game and especially the cartoons.
We just got this game and its SO ADDICTING!!!!! The user interface is really nice and simple. The cartoons are very creative. What's not to like.
The silly fun and great idea. Just what everyone needs a dash of every day. Make many many more.
Different than anything else we've seen on the App Store.
This game has great potential, really funny and challenging However there is a glitch If you put the wrong letter in and then swap it out and make the correction the game does not acknowledge it and there is no button to submit your corrected answer we would be wary to purchase the rest since the free version keeps hanging up.
Nice, fun, sometimes challenging game. A little buggy at times. Correct answer entered but doesn't accept. Have to re-start and re-enter same answer. Would also be nice if there was a way to "clear" an attempt without having to move every letter out one by one.
Could be a fun game, but doesn't let you make corrections. So if you accidentally type a wrong letter, the puzzle will not be solvable.
