Review CodyCross: Crossword Puzzles

Are you tired of those boringly formatted crossword puzzles in newspapers and magazines? Try this app as an alternative.
A new Dutch question will appear each time. It is up to you to type the correct answer. Often one or more pre-chewed letters can help you with this. Can’t figure it out? Then first go to the next question or request a hint. In the latter case, drag the yellow fly to a box of which you want to know the letter. Once you run out of chips, you can no longer ask for hints.

CodyCross starts with simple questions, such as ‘Lying doll with a long nose’ and ‘Hangs on the wall with a wise saying on it’. The further you get, the harder the riddles become. If you get something right, you unlock some bonus letters for the next answers.

A plus is that you do not need to create an account for this game. You can, however, log in with a Facebook profile. In the free version, an advertising banner is visible. For a fee, you can hide this advertising, but that is unfortunately very expensive with a monthly rate of 10.99 euros.
