Screen 8/10
It has a very refreshing minimalist style, the background is a soft gradient color, and the letter squares are round and cute. There are no fancy special effects, it doesn't hurt your eyes, and it's suitable for staring at for long periods of time. However, the interface is a bit ordinary and lacks a little design surprise.
Gameplay 7/10
The core mechanism is to slide letters to spell words, and the rules can be understood in thirty seconds. But the difficulty curve is a bit confusing: the first few levels are too easy, just paddling; in the middle, unfamiliar words suddenly popped up, such as "quixotic", which I have never seen even in level 4 vocabulary, and I was stuck for half an hour. However, this sense of challenge is also addictive, and you have a strong sense of accomplishment after completing the level. The disadvantage is that the finger stroke judgment is occasionally not sensitive, especially when the fingers are sweaty and the touch is easily broken.
Krypton Gold 10/10
Completely free, no in-app purchases. Yes, there is no charge, and there are very few ads. Occasionally, a rewarded video ad can skip the level. This is a breath of fresh air for a puzzle game of acceptable quality. The developer, Nanjing Moxie Network Technology Co., Ltd., has a conscience.
Social 6/10
There are leaderboards and friend battles, but the social system is relatively simple and you can't chat or form teams. However, for this kind of stand-alone crossword game, social interaction is not the core requirement. Being able to compare scores with friends is enough.
Overall rating 7.8/10
It is suitable for people who want to use their spare time to learn some English words, or players who simply like the challenge of solving puzzles. There is no forced krypton money and no disgusting ads. It is much better than some games that claim to be free. The only point of dissuasion is that the vocabulary in the later stages is relatively difficult, and those with a weak English foundation may have to look up the dictionary frequently. But I do think that looking up words while playing is a good way to accumulate vocabulary, right? 😉
