Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Love it. Nice and big also for easy on the eyes. Great app to make you think.
Fun game to try and win. Would recommend to anyone.
Fun to play. Challenging, but not impossible.
This is our favorite game. Instead of drinking a glass of wine, we do about 5 crazy puzzles and our stress level goes down. Thx for the latest changes.
Great app! Challenging and very enjoyable. We'd play this even if there were more ads. No kidding folks, it's fun, a great time-passer, and it grows brain cells! Well, maybe that's an exaggeration, but it really does exercise your gray matter. Get it, you'll enjoy playing while you keep your mind sharp.
Love this game. Addicted to it and 2 other games by Boy Howdy. Brilliant and fun "brain" game. Excellent mental challenge and it's free.
This app is so much fun!! Especially since it's free!! No hidden gimmicks, just lots and lots of puzzles. We just wish they had an option to stop the ads, although we must say that this sweet app really only minimally has ads that are out of the way and hardly noticeable.
Enjoyable for word addicts with a variety of difficulty levels which get much harder.
Good fun. Challenges your vocabulary.
Nice app … Simple but varied mix of words makes it challenging.
Different levels make this always fun.
We bore easily when it comes to games. This one keeps us coming back. We can feel our brain cells waking up.
Keeps your active on the hard and crazy hard levels.
Challenging puzzles at each level.
This has, quickly, become our favorite game! It's challenging and, once, the solution is achieved – very satisfying.
This game is perfect. Challenging, interesting, simple to learn, not too long to play one game, just the right availability of hints when we ask for them, interesting and varied word choices. We love the "check our work" option. Yep, this game is perfect.
Terrific game. No hassles, no time limit. Very entertaining.
Great app. Lots of variety in the puzzles.
We like this game a lot! Most crossword apps are disappointing – not this one ;).
Helps us wake up every morning. Not too time consuming to play a game or two. We like that you can check for errors if you get stuck. The ten seconds of flashing boxes during the error check is annoying though.
Give it a try. It teaches you to do the impossible.
Love, love, love our Boy Howdy games. Id recommend them to anyone looking for great games that challenge you and are so satisfying. Warning: youll want more and more of them every chance you get to play. We must play them before bedtime to sleep well. Great easy to use formatsgreat company. Thank you BH.
Im enjoying it a great deal. Ive done more than 2,000 puzzles so far.
It's one the better game apps we've played no down side to it so far and we can play offline.
Love, love, love this game. We play it every day and it's still just as fun as the first time we played it. Even if you're not a fan of crosswords, this game is totally engaging. We really appreciate the different levels of difficulty. At this point we play Hard and Crazy, but it's great to be able to go to Easy when we're trying to entice someone new to the game…..muah ah ah.
Very good game, we play it all the time.
Very interesting concept…crossword w/o clues. It's addictive.
Thoroughly enjoy this app– keeps your mind engaged.
We enjoy playing this alone. We also use it as a learning tool for our children.
Great game for sharpen you word skills.
Can't seem to put it down. Very addictive . . . In a good way.
This crossword app is just right. The user can chose the level of difficulty, and the interface is straightforward and simple.
Half the time we try to get more coins the "free" sites doesn't give them plus it's all more buy this! We love the site but can you reward us with free coins.
We really liked these puzzles until today. A few times we were asked if we wanted to change an answer, because this was a "family friendly" game. Our worst word was "dork". Today one puzzle we did had the word "pimp" and the next one had the word "copulate". This is "family friendly"? We do these with our grandkids, but no more! We deleted this game.
Love this game! Makes our brain think, get excited when we make a word & get lots of letters.
We really like this app. It's almost perfect. No annoying ads after every game is the best feature. The only thing we wish they tweak is the nber of times squares flash when you check for errors. It gives us vertigo. It flashes five or six times. Also it flashes all the blank squares as well, which is unnecessary.
One of our favorite Favorites!!! We are a Big Fan of Boy Howdy Games. Thank you for these no timer, no ads games. You are the best.
The best Crossword we have ever played. Congrats.
We LOVE this game! We cant get enough of it. Its fun but also challenging. We also really think it helps with maintaining long term memory that Doctors are always worried about. So thank you.
We love this game. Very well designed and user friendly. We wish there was another level of difficulty between Easy and Medium. Easy is – easy, but medium is more like difficult.
We like how you can choose difficulty level. No ads and fun! Keeps your brain active as you age.
Like all games we have tried so far from this publisher this is fun and as easy as you want but still challenging, or hard and nearly impossible as you want it to be. The best part is the ads! No obtrusive ads, no irritating selling of other games. Refreshing!! Love it.
Really love the game. Wish there was a home button. Or, we guess we wish we knew where it was.
The best word game we know of or have played ever. Really tests your vocabulary and your understanding of English spelling rules. Multiple levels but difficulty changes even in a level based on random beginning setup. Enjoy it for peace and fun.
Great twist on word games; lots of variation in challenge levels. Has become a favorite.
We are elderly & having trouble with the mind, so we play this game to help our brain. Once we get started, it's hard to put down.
Have been playing the game for some time & love it.
Lots of fun to play, great levels of difficulty.
We enjoy doing crossword puzzle, it is awesome.
Love this game. It never gets old.
