What’s New in This Version
Connected a new ad unit to improve ad availability. This should increase the likelihood of ads loading when using hints and help improve overall fill rate.
Hints have also been improved so they always provide value. If you request a hint, you will now always receive a correct letter — even if the selected square is already correct, the app will reveal the next letter or another correct letter elsewhere.
This update also includes general performance improvements and minor bug fixes.
Thanks for playing The Clue!
