User Reviews

Users generally enjoy Crossword Challenge for its fun, engaging gameplay and daily-play appeal, with reviewers praising the game quality. However, the experience is hampered by an overwhelming ad load that interrupts play—often after every move—even when a one-time no-ads purchase is supposed to fix it. Readability issues (small text and hints) and occasional glitches or freezes also detract from the experience, as do occasional crossword spelling errors. Overall, gameplay is strong, but ad frequency and reliability problems are the main pain points.

Pros

Fun, engaging, and addictive crossword gameplay.
Widely loved by players who report daily play and positive reception.
Brain-stimulating puzzle that keeps the mind active.

Cons

Frequent ads interrupt gameplay—ads appear after almost every move, and paying for a no-ads option doesn’t consistently remove them.
Text and word hints are too small; no option to enlarge hints.
Glitches and freezes disrupt play, sometimes causing the app or device to lock up.
Occasional misspellings in finished crosswords.

The download said no ads, and there are ads

I love the game but they have too many ads and no way to get back to your game after you submit. They don’t have an X to get out and back to the game. I love the game but I hate the trouble it takes to play.
