Ratings and Reviews
Fun to play but doesn't work reliably
I really enjoy playing this game. I like to challenge myself intellectually and this fits the bill. At least, it does when it works right. Many times the keyboard doesn't appear and I have to completely close the program and restart it. I tried reloading the program from the web but that didn't help. I hope they get it fixed because I enjoy playing it, when it works.
Addictive & informative
I've addressed the puzzle now for about 3months on a daily basis. It is now habit to mind the gap every day at elevenses. The set is quick, stretches the knowledge and imagination at each level of the paragraph. I did run into one glitch which I reported and got a nearly immediate response and a solution. I don't think this app is good for children because it asks for and provides information which I think is more in the range of young and older adults. I would strongly recommend the app for that demographic.
Review
I like learning and I find this app provides both fun and learning new things in a variety of areas.
