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! Quality Software by Egghead Games. Contact us at support@eggheadgames.com or www.eggheadgames.com. We stand by our products and will happily refund your purchase if you’re not completely happy.}

I have played these Acrostic games by Egghead for years and absolutely love them. The format of the puzzles runs smoothly and I like the fact you can have a little help if you want it. The content of each puzzle is interesting and often amusing. A good form of entertainment that keeps me on my toes mentally. I had a problem with my iPad and lost all of my purchases. Egghead responded immediately and restored everything right away. Good people to work with.

This is one of my favorite apps. Really like the different challenge levels. My favorite game is Acrostics by Cyn. Would like to see more of those. If you like word games and haven’t yet tried an acrostic, you should give this one a try. When I recently had a problem with the game not opening, I couldn’t believe how responsive Michael was. He had the problem fixed in no time. Really appreciate it!

This is a great acrostic app. I’ve bought dozens of puzzle packs. Tech support is very good too. They went to great lengths to help me with a problem.

This is a great acrostic app, but the rewrite of its Store page prevents me from buying any puzzle packs, rendering the app useless. Most of the multi-pack sources have reset at volume 1. I can’t see which volumes I’ve purchased, or find unpurchased packs to buy them. It’s a shame because I really enjoyed the app and bought dozens of puzzle packs.

Over 40 yrs ago, my mother, sister & I would sit around and solve these puzzles only using printed puzzle books. Later when both mom and sis passed away, I didn’t bother. Now that I am retired and need exercise my little brain cells and to conserve our trees, I found this app. Boy, so easy and thoroughly enjoyable. Keep them coming…..

I been happily using this app for several years and played each puzzle at least twice. But they don’t seem to be adding anymore puzzles. When I attempted to email them from their service page, after I’d filled out the email form it told me that using that form was forbidden (say what?). Anyway, I’d love it if they’d add some more acrostic collections but I guess I’ll have to find another app. Ce la vie!

The PennyPress acrostics are not as satisfying as the other brand.

I do these daily, why did you take away my volumes? If this is a new system it stinks. I would like my volumes back Linda Hoffman

Such a great challenging puzzle!! Puzzle Baron is the best one, due to size of puzzles and fitting on cell phone!
