Acrostic Crossword Puzzles
文字
$190.00 · App內購買
Acrostic puzzles 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. By 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 Anacrostics, 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 7100 puzzles!
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.
If you like word games, crosswords or cryptograms, acrostic puzzles are a fun way to exercise your brain!

4.10.7 2024/03/31
A quick fix to restore Puzzle Baron Volume 1 for people who bought Acrostics prior to September 1, 2016 when it was included (before we had multiple publishers). Also fixes an overactive "Restore Purchases" spinner. If you have any purchasing problems at all, please get in touch! We updated some purchase code last week (to use Apple's latest greatest purchasing improvements) which should be better overall (e.g. no need to tap Restore Purchases on new devices), but despite our testing more problems may arise. Rest assured we're fixing these as fast as we hear about them.
Email support@eggheadgames.com anytime with questions or comments.
4.10.6 2024/03/15
