"I wanted something more challenging than my daily newspaper crossword, and this app delivered. It is the perfect 'brain gym' for my morning coffee. The 'accessible' puzzles were a great way to learn the ropes of cryptic logic. It is rare to find such high-quality content without being bombarded by annoying ads. Excellent value for 300 puzzles!"
