Description

Lovatts' popular Handy Acrostic puzzles are included in this Australia / New Zealand version, as well as other international & US language puzzles.

Acrostics are crosswords with a twist: find the hidden quote. This combination of crossword and cryptogram provides an entertaining brain workout. Each letter in the quote is linked to a letter in one of the clue answers. As you fill in more and more answers, more letters will begin to fill the quote grid, until eventually the entire quote is revealed. Once the quote is partially filled in, you can also do this process in reverse – each letter you add to the quote will fill in the corresponding letter in the clue answers, Working back-and-forth, eventually the entire quote and all clue answers will be revealed.

The app includes 60 free quality puzzles with no ads, ever. They range from beginner to expert from renowned publishers like Acrostica, Acrostics by Cyn, Lovatts Puzzles, PennyPress Crostics, Puzzle Baron and Spanish language puzzles from Tav Ripo. Additional puzzle packs containing 48 to 50 puzzles are available for a small fee; the full library is over 6350 puzzles!

Designed for fast and easy play, Acrostics lets you concentrate on solving the clues without all the erasing of pencil and paper solving. The result is pure puzzle solving fun with no ads or distractions!

Advanced play features include automatic grid updating and indexing, see related cells, multi-level undo, remove errors, and hints. A wide range of difficulty levels will challenge beginners and seasoned players alike.

Acrostics includes more than 50 additional puzzle packs available for purchase, each for about the price of a cup of coffee. Pick your favorite author or try something different. These will provide HOURS and HOURS of fun!

If you like word games, crosswords or cryptograms, acrostics are a fun way to exercise your brain!

Great variety of difficulty

Really enjoyed these puzzles

An Old Favourite Returns

I used to love Games Magazine then got too busy. These puzzles are a return to the fun I had with Games magazine, love them. Also his Logic Puzzles are a return of an old favourite.

Lacking

When I first downloaded this, I found the puzzles to be fun. There was a good selection of easy and difficult. But when you add packages, they don’t tell you the difficulty, you just choose one, and I found they were WAY too easy. There’s no challenge when you can finish it as fast as you can type! I’d recommend listing the difficulty in the additional packages, and offering some more challenging ones.

Good point. The 60 sample puzzles are from each of the 6 publishers. This is intended to give you a feel for which you might prefer. However I agree this could be more explicit. I’ll try to improve the descriptions. Also, you can email support@eggheadgames.com at any time to request a refund or replacement volume. Happy Puzzling! Cheers, Michael
