Features & Capabilities

The ultimate giant crossword puzzles!

Play the world's biggest and best single grid crosswords, with over 1300 clues in every grid. The grids are all over 100 by 100 cells in size.

Can you complete these epic crosswords?

These themed crosswords are a fabulous brain game if you love solving challenging puzzles. Choose to solve the crosswords in two modes:

  • Quest mode, where each clue has been carefully crafted into a corresponding quest. There are over 80 quests to complete in each puzzle.
  • Classic mode where you play like an ordinary crossword

The crosswords have been professionally set, and tailored to suit both US and non US markets - with any specific cultural differences noted. We only use the best crossword setters!

They are epic challenges that only the best crossword solvers will be able to complete unaided. However if you're completely stumped on a clue, the game features several hints:

  • Reveal start and end letters
  • Lose unused keyboard letters
  • Reveal Word

Each puzzle also contains 140 cryptic clues to sharpen your wits, but fear not - our 'Learn Cryptic Crosswords' app teaches you how to solve those. Or just use your Hints!

The helpful 'mini grid' feature shows you where you are in the overall puzzle.

The game features in-app purchases to buy coins for hints, or you can watch reward adverts instead. Periodically adverts are shown.

Earn extra rewards by playing daily.

Did we mention the size? They’re BIG - really BIG!

A real challenge for crossword aficionados or beginners.

User Reviews

The Big Crossword shines with its huge puzzles, affordable ad-free option, and engaging clues, and updates add freshness. However, users lament frequent ads, a lack of additional crosswords, inconsistent clues with British bias, and occasional platform issues. It's highly engaging despite monetization and content limitations.
Pros
  • Very large, expansive crossword with many clues and flexible solving order
  • Affordable no-ads option (one-time purchase)
  • Engaging clues and hints; cryptic clues add variety
  • Content updates including a second big crossword keep the game fresh
  • Hours of enjoyable, replayable puzzle play
Cons
  • Intrusive ads and paywall pressure to remove them
  • Only one crossword available; players want more puzzles
  • Some clues are wrong, mixed up, or overly British in flavor
  • Occasional platform issues (noted on Android) and monetization via coins/ads
