I can't believe this is still being sold! It's a nightmare! July 24, 2008
Ms. A. J. Smith (Kent, UK)
I googled for this game and found what I thought was the same game in two different covers. I thought one must be the UK packaging and the other USA. So, I bought the one that was available over here after reading reviews of the other. I got it and started playing it. I wondered where all the good stuff was that I'd read about and it was nowhere to be seen. This game says it's got three skill levels. No, it hasn't. You can complete a small puzzle, a medium one or a big one. The clues are all similar and there's no difference in how hard the questions are. So many of the clues are things like...number plates of different countries, nobel prize winners (spelt 'price' in the game), winners of medals in the Olympics and places, rivers and distant tribes that I wouldn't have a clue about. There are loads of other rubbishy questions too. I'm amazed that this game is still being sold. I haven't had any fun with it at all and can't even link to another DS without them having the same game...and NO WAY am I going to buy another one of these in order to do that. I'd rather play Ping Pals...and that's saying something! Don't buy this or you will be very sorry, but, if you see the other game which has the same name but a different cover design...BUY THAT ONE INSTEAD! That one has anagram games and word searches in it. This one only has small, medium or large crosswords that will do your head in. I think I've made my point.
Complete waste of time and money June 28, 2008
G. Davies (UK)
As a crossword addict I looked forward to receiving this game - what a disappointment. Clues are repeated crossword after crossword and mainly consist of the international letters for countries, nobel prizewinners since the year dot, the initials of the news agency of every country and olympic games medal winners. Does not even warrant one star.
Completely agree with everybody else June 27, 2008

I'm just adding my review, so that nobody will even think of wasting their money on this title. I agree with every single point made by the other reviewers.
Stupidly difficult. Feel very let down June 25, 2008

I have waited for ages for this game to be released. It arrived today and I have already decided to sell it. The questions are repeated throughout. They are also stupidly difficult. I was hoping for a game with various levels of difficulty (as described) so I could play a nice simple puzzle before bed and a real brainer when I fancy a real challenge. However, the difficulty levels are not defined by the questions but the size of the crossword. The questions seem to be the same throughout. I woud advise against buying this game. there is aother DS crossword game that I am going to buy as soon as i have sold this one.
Total Waste of Money - Very Disappointing June 23, 2008

Being a lover of crosswords I ordered this game many months ago but now that I've got it I really wish that I hadn't bothered. I am so disappointed with it. All the puzzles are the same, you keep getting the same questions time and time again. Unless you know who got medals at the olympics from the last 40 years, Asian and African mountains and rivers, Nobel prize (or price as they word it) winners from years ago, abbreviations for countries and the international plates for different countries then don't bother as these questions are repeated every game and even 2 or 3 times in each game. It also seems to consider pigs, geese, moose etc. as domestic pets!!! All in all a complete waste of money and time waiting for it.
