it's okay. think the more difficult part about it is that some of the words are ones that wouldn't be used in other parts of the world like ices for example and alot of the lantern questions are to do with American history. it can also become quite repetitive with multiple puzzles having the same clues or words for example ski comes up at least once every 2-3 puzzles. and the ads after every level can be a bit annoying especially if it only takes you a couple of minutes to finish a puzzle.

Wouldn't recommend it. Firstly, the game wasn't as advertised. It was a crossword game and not a fill in the missing blanks. The crosswords weren't too bad, but the amount of adverts were unreal and they seemed to go on forever. Then in-between all of that, they are constantly asking you to pay for this bonus pack or that bonus pack. I don't pay for games. It was very clicky just to get to play an actual game.

have been flicking through mutliple different games recently, but this is the only puzzle/word game that hits the spot for me. I have paid for the ad free as it is not too much and makes the experience better. I hope this game continues to get updates to keep it going for a ling time as I love it. Good to keep the brain ticking, and helps pass quiet time at work.
