One problem
By Pennyesq (Pcmac user)
The problem with these the app Crosswords is that they're going to run out and I'll be bereft. Teazel generously gives you 18 free puzzles (took in each of nine sets) and for some very low purchase price opens all of them, which is approximately 180 puzzles. It's actually a bit more because there one or two sets that have an extra game.
If you're a the app fan like I am, this is a feast of puzzles. I tried to hold myself to one —or maybe just two — puzzles per day but I ended up like a kid in the cookie jar, unable to resist.
There is an option to erase an entire puzzle but I'd really love the option to erase them all in one "swell foop" so I can do them over again. Even better would be to have a new set of the app puzzles, but if Teazel won't provide new those, I'll try their regular crosswords to see if they also present a pleasurable challenge.
One caveat for those of us in the States, it helps if you quite a bit of British slang (or can find a translation dictionary) but since it seems the Brits produce lots of good cryotics.

Hours of fun!
By ArmadilloNut (Pcmac user)
I am relatively new to the app crosswords and this presents the right level of challenge and accessibility! I don't have time to do them often, so I definitely feel like there are plenty of puzzles, and I am getting my money's worth.

Challenging Cryptic Puzzles
By Micros864 (Pcmac user)
I’ve been solving the free sample puzzles and they are very enjoyable. Not too easy, but hard enough to make them fun.
I’ll certainly buy the entire set once the samples are completed.

Great puzzles—please add more!
By LouiseTX (Pcmac user)
The puzzles are great if you’re a this app enthusiast (with the caveat that they are written by Brits, so Americans need to think British English). I wish there were more puzzles available.
