If the NYT hadn’t dropped its anacrostics puzzles, I would have given a 5-star rating. I wish the anacrostics could be brought back, even if only as archives for old time’s sake.
Great games but the constant reminder to subscribe is annoying!

I love doing the different puzzles but the app is set up to show you all the things you don’t have access to unless you subscribe. If you don’t decide to subscribe you get reminders on the top in every game and it won’t let me see what the bot says for the wordle because the ad to subscribe keeps coming up. At this point I’m much closer to deleting than subscribing. The sad thing is I would spend more money buying packs and spend more time playing if the app wasn’t so obnoxious with trying to get you to subscribe at every turn. I’m sure it works to get people to spend money but I gladly support apps that feel like they care more about the users experience than just money.

Spelling Bee is no longer playable
Veriteraison
The latest update has rendered Spelling Bee unplayable. I hope this issue will be fixed soon, as I really miss being able to play this in my phone.
