Idea Ok, navigation and interface - disguesting. To solve the pussle I had to screenshot it and combine in my PC. Said that, I prefere just to use web puzzles. 1 star, because it's unplayable.

Great for what it is. I would also like to use this interface for puzzles entered in manually (ie help me solve an elaewise puzzle)

Love it. Please, add zoom. I can't play large puzzles on my phone.

This could be great for checking noobs know the basics. With some complexity you'd make a good practice tool. Add some details to the choice of algorithm and it would really help to cement new learning of more complex atoms. More stars if the scrolling is improved. [:-P]

If you don't know what regex is, read about it somewhere first. Fun to play. Multiple levels for everyone to enjoy :-). Some minor bugs e.g. parts of the crossword regex expressions cannot be seen when keyboard is open. Would probably give it 5 stars, if it weren't for bugs.

You can feel how it's auto generated a bit but the problem is the interface. It hijacks the scrolling some how and can only go x or y. Throwing the screen selected the first cell moving the guide and any time you let go it selected that cell. Very hard to keep the guide colours on the right cell when dragged. Just use a stock scrolling ui!

About this app

Inspired by the MIT 2013 Mystery Hunt, this is the geek version of Sudoku-meet-crossword. Each clue on the grid represents a regular expression. The row of cells it points to must match this expression exactly. You can do the original Mystery Hunt version or one of the programmatically generated ones.

This is my first attempt at constructing the puzzle programmatically so, don’t judge too harshly. If there is any interest I’ll look to improve the algorithm in the next release.
