Exactly what it seems to be!

This is the first app I've ever decided to actually buy. I only got into cryptic crosswords about a month ago, and I truly adore them. There aren't any good places to learn the intricacies of the rules to how the clues are built, or, well, none that are as coherent, accessible, well-paced and well phrased as this app―at least to me. Sure, the information exists on the internet, but I still felt like a headless chicken trying to discern when to apply what logic and why. That is, until tonight.

Anyway―go read the description and look at the screenshots, and you'll know if this app is for you or not. All I can tell you is, that for me, it was exactly what I hoped it would be judging by what it seemed like here in the store. Thus, after having completed the first chapter, I made this the first ever app I ever threw money at in all my thirty years on this planet.

Well done, developers; well done. And thank you.
