User Reviews

Cross Boss offers a fun, competitive multiplayer crossword experience with an easy-to-learn UI and an engaging concept. However, users repeatedly report iPhone notification failures, heavy ad load, and problematic input flow (keyboard/entry) after unlocking clues, plus some inconsistent UX. These recurring issues appear across multiple reviews and detract from the overall experience.

Pros

Fun, competitive multiplayer crossword experience.
Easy-to-learn user interface.
Engaging concept: crossword-based word play with online competition.
Multiplayer matches can be exciting with unpredictable outcomes.

Cons

Notifications not working on iPhone (turn notifications not received).
Ads are intrusive and frequent, with long ads and potential delays in multiplayer.
Keyboard/word-entry flow can be broken or missing after unlocking a clue (input issues).",

This is a very fun way to play competitive crosswords. My only complaint is that the notifications to tell you that it’s your turn stopped after the first day. I’ve doubled checked all my settings, and nothing seems to make the notifications work. Otherwise, lots of fun!

There are two guys that write these crosswords, Mark and Peter. Mark’s puzzles are fun, but Peter’s are full of obscure clues that only Peter and his mom know the answers to. It seriously takes the fun out of the game. Also a LOT of ads, but you can just close the app and they disappear. We demand more Mark puzzles, Peter needs to go play Sudoku or something.

I had to remove the app and find another. While I understand there is a need for the ads, it’s not worth making two moves and then having to watch for such a long ad. Sorry!
