Downloaded a sample copy. I learned all about the book but did not get even ONE puzzle to try out and how it would work on my iPhone.
Also tried Vol 2 same lousy results.
Very crappy.

No sample of the actual puzzle made me mad, but seeing as I’ve always loved crossword puzzles I figured “how bad could it be?” and this probably was it.
When I downloaded the full “book” the page where the sample let off said something about if this was a sample, play some for free here – this was NOT in the sample!
I tried it out though and found that to solve the puzzles you needed to be on the web the whole time. You need to register on their website (haven’t been a member for long enough to know whether they spam me or not), and then you get to start playing.
And here’s the other thing: the puzzles are way too simple! I get these clues, to a crossword puzzle not even in my native language, and I figure it all out before I would an easy puzzle in my own laguage.
Basically: no sample, doesn’t work on the plane or if you’re in a country with no whispernet, and it’s all way too easy.

I was excited to see a crossword puzzle book for kindle but it is very slow and cumbersome to play. You would be better off just playing a regular written crossword puzzle.

I have never been into crossword puzzles before, but since this was only 99 cents, I thought I’d give it a try. I love the way you can check your entries. It tells you which letters are right and which are wrong so you can delete the wrong ones and continue working the puzzle. It took me a few minutes to figure out how to use this as I kept trying to type the letters in the squares whereas you type in the hint dialog box. You also have to make sure your browser is in Advanced Mode, and Java is turned on. Once I got it working, it is great. Be sure to save your entries often as my Kindle glitched a few times and reset, and I lost some entries. If you have never tried crosswords or found them too hard, this Kindle version might be easier and more fun than printed book crosswords.
