Codeword Unlimited v6.2.4
Havos Word GamesAbout this app
Developer Description
Find the letters behind the numbers, by playing this popular word game
The words to find are in English, or you can play in 35 other languages.
For those unfamiliar with Codeword puzzles, they provide a grid of words, similar to a normal crossword, but with no clues, rather a few initially provided letters, and a number in each square in the gird to indicate its (as yet unknown) letter. All boxes with the same number must use the same letter. From that information and the few initially provided letters it is possible to work out which words will fit in the boxes. Hence you are decoding (or decyphering) the numbers into letters to reveal the hidden words. Usually all 26 letters of the alphabet are used in the codeword, although not always (and unused letters appear crossed out in the keyboard). It is fun, challenging, and a real brain teaser.
Feature list:
1) Unlimited number of codewords!! They are created on-the-fly using the application's advanced generator engine and it's built-in word list
2) The player decides the number of rows and columns (from 3 to 20). This allows the game to be suitable for all kinds of mobile-phones and tablets
3) Difficultly level can be specified by the user, which determines the pool of words the generator will use. The larger the pool the greater the difficulty. There is even an early learner mode with a limited number of words, aimed at English language learners. The number of starting letters can also be specified. Higher scores can be obtained with more difficult codewords
4) Selecting a square in the grid will highlight all places the same letter is used in that grid (i.e. has the same number to decipher). This is really handy and of course not possible when doing codewords in a magazine
5) If a game is too difficult, the application provides two useful tools to help you (see below)
6) For any word in the grid for which all squares are assigned to letters, Codeword Unlimited will highlight if that word is NOT an allowed word in the word list it uses to generate its codewords. This helps you when you have mistakes in your current assignments (saving you lots of time and frustration!)
7) An on-screen keyboard means it is much easier and more comfortable to play
8) The definition of a completed word can be viewed. This is useful if you do not know it, or you are learning a foreign language (internet connection required)
9) Choose the language of the word list, from a large range of downloadable dictionaries. 36 languages are currently available (see below)
10) Can be played in portrait or landscape mode. Just rotate your device and the display adjusts automatically
Other similar applications want you to pay for more puzzles, but this game provides you with endless puzzles, all for free!!.
Each game is assigned a difficulty level from 0 (easy) to 9 (very hard). The difficulty level is determined by the settings or the difficulty selector. Each difficulty level maintains the high scores (measured by fastest time to complete the game). The game displays the best 20 scores for each difficulty level.
If the player is in difficulty, the application provides two very useful aids
1) The game can provide another decoded letter
2) The game can show you potential answers for an uncompleted word. The game uses the letters that you have already decoded and displays the matching words
You can play this app in the following languages: English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Finnish, Polish, Hungarian, Czech, Russian, Arabic, Bulgarian, Croatian, Greek, Indonesian, Romanian, Serbian, Serbo-Croatian, Slovak, Slovene, Turkish, Ukrainian, Afrikaans, Albanian, Azeri, Estonian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Catalan, Galician, Tagalog

Don't get me wrong I absolutely love this App, keeps me entertained and my brain active... have had it on several devices throughout the years HOWEVER! When I emailed 'The Developers' sometime ago about the fact I get penalised for correct letters when I ask the game to show wrong answers on my KINDLE FIRE (latest version) the reply I got was... "Not many people have it on their Kindle as it's mostly on their up to date phones" (I don't get this on my Nokia G50 btw) C**P RESPONSE!!!
Good game, but the menu and layout seem a bit undeveloped. Would be nice if there were levels, or anything to give you a view of how many you've done. There is a x/x at the top, which I thought might be this, but it changes with every new game, so no idea what that it. The levels themselves are fine, would just be nice to have a proper menu and level/difficulty guide, even if it was a counter of how many you've done, as I assume it can pop out infinite levels.
Used to love this game. Now every time I go into it I have to either consent to all advertisers being able to access my info or spend 10 mins changing every one to no legitimate access after blocking all consent. Sorry deleting as off my find a developer who will reject all consent legitimate or otherwise without any hassle. Also deleting other games from this developer as the issue is across all games.
nice game, but ads even if you buy it
One off payment would be fine. Yearly subscription of nearly £5 is not worth it. I'll go find another game rather than be bullied because I don't want advertising snooping on me. Also as if don't consent to advertising you have to wait to play the game. The delay gets longer and then they then deduct the delay from your score. Nice app not resonably priced or friendly. Bye
