Great fun. Easy to use and good for the brain. Only addition I'd like to see is a reveal on the wordplay - sometimes you can't see how an answer was derived and it would be awesome to know as this helps you get better.

Well designed cryptic crossword app with medium difficulty (in my opinion). Well worth buying the full version. I hope the developer finds a way to sell more cryptics as an add-on or just a second app.

Great app. Crosswords are reasonably simple, but enjoyable. Interface isn't pretty, but is functional. Only gripe is that some of the puzzles are repeats from Teazel's other apps.

Huge collection of puzzles with lots of tips for beginners getting into the cryptic mindset, definitely an easier starting point than the puzzles in newspapers. Very satisfying to complete. I'm hooked!

Great App for crossword beginners like me. Only issue was that when you get the paid subscription you have to start over on the puzzles you are already working on. But not a big deal

Really enjoyable cryptic crosswords. Clues pitched at just the right level for a decent challenge without being too tough.
