MedCross is the crossword game built for medical students. Instead
of grinding flashcards, you solve puzzles - unlocking real medical
terms across 800+ hand-crafted levels.
Each puzzle is a medical crossword: solve the crossing words with.
letter-by-letter clues, earn coins, and watch your Medical Library
grow term by term. The more you play, the sharper your clinical
vocabulary becomes.
FOUR WORLDS, ONE CURRICULUM
• Morphology — the body's architecture: anatomy and structure
• How It Works — physiology, biochemistry, genetics, immunology
• How It Breaks — pathology and microbiology
• Think Like a Doctor — clinical vignettes that tie it all together
WHAT YOU'LL MASTER
• Gross Anatomy — organs, structures, spatial relationships
• Histology — tissue types, cell layers, microscopic detail
• Embryology — developmental stages, germ layers, landmarks
• Physiology, pathology, and clinical reasoning
HOW IT WORKS
Every level presents a main medical term with intersecting crossings
— one per letter. Solve the clues, reveal the main term, and add it
to your library. Definitions unlock level by level, so your knowledge
compounds as you climb.

Ratings & Reviews
This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
This update sharpens the puzzles and makes battles fairer:
• Clearer clues - puzzle and daily-level clues rewritten to be shorter and easier to read, with abbreviations spelled out.
• Fairer battles - both players are now guaranteed the exact same questions every round, and a match can no longer accidentally pay both players when the connection drops.
• Rebalanced coin economy for a better-paced progression.
• Privacy-first ads - added a consent flow and honored your tracking choice, with fewer interruptions.
• Various fixes, including the Easter Egg collection now scrolling properly.
Thanks for playing! We read every review - keep the feedback coming.
