Thank you! Now I can get my daily Jumble fix without lugging around my big anthology books! 😊 Only aggravation is the random reset of daily bonus. Will work up to 20-coin bonus, for multiple days in a row, only to have program glitch, fail to recognize daily play (despite multiple games played), reset to start all over at 2 coin bonus. Frustrating and annoying to return to same old words, without the hard-fought payoff. Makes me cranky.

Just came back to this game to start playing it again. Big mistake! The ads are so pervasive and intrusive that it has ruined the gameplay. You finish a game and you are required to sit thru a couple ads for other games. I'm actually going to uninstall this game. Too bad. The game is really enjoyable... The experience of playing it is not!

App appears fixed, so have amended my recent review from 1 star to 4; would be a 5 if my previous player data wasn't lost, but can't get back to how it was; had appx 4,000 coins, and had done at least 500 puzzles; not the first time this has happened; always have to restart at 1st puzzle, 0 (100) coins. But at least app works normally again, so thanks for that fix.

Super addictive, but you get only 2 or 3 coins for solving a puzzle in total, but if you need to ask for clues, help with only 2 letters within the entire puzzle it's a total of 80 coins. Do you know how long it takes to get 80 coins? Awhile. The help shouldn't cost quite so much it kinda takes the fun out of things. And every time it's asked me if I would like to watch a video to earn extra coins I've of course clicked yes and each time the screen just sits there as though I'd never been asked.

I have always loved doing the jumble in the newspaper, now I can do them whenever. Just wish I didn't have to purchase something to get rid of all the annoying ads. way too many!...since my last rating, I had to download the update. now way too many repeat jumbles . no fun if you already know the puzzle. had to download another update! now getting 2 points per jumble! I'm done with this app. just not fun anymore!!

Challenging and fun. Some of the puzzles are really tough! The graphics are great, and the clues are somewhat helpful. Very easy to use interface. A favorite pastime. The only thing I might suggest is to allow skipping a puzzle if you are stuck. When I'm stuck I send the puzzle to my daughter and have to wait until she solves it before I can continue. Otherwise I love solving the puzzles. Thank you to the developers and puzzle creators!

Fun and challenging, keeps me alert. Having fun with figuring the solution from the clue. Passes the time quickly. Still enjoying the game. Really enjoying solving the puzzles. Cannot get rid of ads...help. I think the puzzles are very clever. Help me get rid of the ads, please. Looking forward to playing each day, a fun way to pass the time. I am so disappointed that the game is not updated and available, it's a big letdown especially during this time of social confinement.

This is a great app! Fun, fast, and almost no ad interuptions, I've had about 3 in the 3 weeks I've been playing. Little chincy on the coins. Highly recommend!! UPDATE: I was on level 260 and about to receive my 40 coins because I play it everyday, then it froze. it had everything on the screen except for the letters nothing worked not even the back button. I had to uninstall it and reinstall it and start over from square one which sucks! I really hope that doesn't happen again. I still recommend

I enjoy this. Wish it were more like the newspaper where you solve words then get cartoon/jumble. Also more points for bonus play -- those are harder than the cartoon/jumble. I'd pay for this app no need for advertising. I've changed phones and lost all my good work. That's the _ _ _ _ _. (HINT: Sounds like pits)

I really enjoyed it, challenging and interesting. I am upset having to delete the game because I could not solve one. I gave up last night, hoped we would go to another word. Not without buying more points. If I had an account to do that I would have, but am not connecting my bank account to the phone. I am elderly, that is one of the things we are warned to Never do..... I am disappointed as it is hard to find something that IS actually challenging. it deserves a 5, but I went with 4.

Love it, but not as good as the newspaper version. The picture puzzle has the solution letters without requiring you to unjumble 4+ words to get said letters. Instead it's 2 stand alone rounds where the bonus level is 4 jumbled words with no relation to the pictures. This makes it too easy. After playing for a few months I have over 3700 coins and rarely need to use them for hints.

This game is just challenging enough to be in the category of games that require thinking, not just matching shapes and finding things. But it's also not hard, and it's "cute" and fun. The little jokes that are in the final captions are clever, and I appreciate the fact that they and the cartoons are created by actual people! It's a fun little pastime that's not stressful.

This is reasonably good, but I bought coins to get rid of the ads. That worked for a while but in the last couple days the ads are back. What gives? Update: ads have become way more annoying, not even offering a way to mute them, and it's still not clear what the rules are on how much ad free time one gets for a given amount of coins. I'm done with it.

Aw shucks! I played to the end of the game--I just found out. Hurry with more puzzles please! It's challenging and fun. Graphics are really neat! I do think that the bonus deserves more coins if completed. Maybe 3 or 4. 1 coin for each word, as it's harder when we can't scramble the letters. Please? 🙂

This was one of the most funnest games I ever did play. I don't allow many games on my phone and I'm sorry to see this one end. I wish it had stats at the end. I have 25,000 coins and never bought one hint. Privately knowing my standing would be preferable to a leaderboard. I know I'm not the smartest or close to the top 25 but I'll bet I'm in the top 100. Yay!! They added 84 new levels in 04/'23. I have something to do for another couple hours. Best puzzle ever. Amen!

I was excited when I found this app. After jumping in with both feet into what I was hoping was the deep end of the pool, I was disappointed to learn that I merely landed in the kiddie pool. The game is easier than in the newspaper, I suspect to appeal to a broader audience. I've played roughly 20 games and have noticed no increase in difficulty. Still, I am enjoying it immensely, and it's now one of my favorite games. I'm upping my rating to five stars in spite of my wanting more challenges.

Always fun to play. Really keeps my brain challenged & sharp. There is a resign button if you want to quit. But I never use the resign button. If I don't finish a puzzle, when I exit out, I lose that puzzle or bonus. I wood like to see something there, where I can save the puzzle or bonus I haven't finished, so I can go back to it when I return to the Just Jumble app. Thank you for this great game.

Although I love it and gave it 5 stars, be aware it's not exactly like the newspaper in that you don't unscramble 4 words with circled letters and then use those letters to form the final answer. You just solve the cartoon puzzles individually, with no letter clues (you can use "coins", which you earn, to get clues if you need them), and/or unscramble a list of 4 words, with the option to time yourself. It's still fun, and it's a game you can play just a short time without getting too addicted.

I always do these in the paper & also bought a 8 pack of the PennyPress Jumbles but I wanted it on my phone too. I'm shocked that unlike most apps you didn't get greedy & flood the game with ads. Tysm!! I do wish you could track your best time as I like to speed solve them. Maybe a stats screen that showed how many you've solved, best time, etc. I also wish the bonus round came before the picture riddle & the letters were circled so it is more like the newspaper. But fantastic game!

My Dad used to do these puzzles in the paper every morning. Us kids would try to solve them before he could because they were too fun. Those ones, of course, had the clue puzzles which led to the answer puzzles, so there was a little more to it. (Versus just having the bonus jumbles.) Still, it was great finding this app. It reminds me so much of my dad and the time spent on the morning paper each day. Feels like time travel to a bygone era!! 😜
