Crosswords for Everyone!
Choose from more than a thousand crossword puzzles or hone your word
skills with Wordsearch or Anagrams. No matter which type of puzzle
you choose, you can easily save your progress at any time and
return later to finish. Crosswords DS is designed for all players--
just select your difficulty level and start off with a basic four-
by-four puzzle. As you progress, the game will increase in
difficulty and puzzle size. Use the DS stylus like a pencil to
write or circle your answers on the touch-control screen. Erasing
mistakes is as simple as writing the new answer over the old one. A
hint system is also included in case you need some friendly
assistance.
In Crosswords DS, you'll find puzzles perfect for everyone
regardless of age or experience. Exercise your word skills in more
than a thousand touch-control word puzzles to challenge every skill
level.
Crosswords DS offers crossword puzzles at multiple skill levels to
engage any player, all controlled with the Nintendo DS stylus.
Simply use the stylus to write your answers on the touch screen.
Erase your mistakes with a quick tap on the screen, or write new
answers directly over old ones.
An interactive hint system helps you move along at your own pace. For
particularly puzzling problems, tap the "Hint" button to receive an
additional clue, reveal a letter or have the word solved for you--the
choice is yours.
The wordplay doesn't stop with crosswords. "Wordsearch" challenges you to
find words hidden among random letters, while "Anagrams" will stretch
your imagination to see how many words you can assemble from a group of
letters.
Crosswords:
- Puzzles are designed for stress-free completion and are broken into
three difficulty levels: Easy, Medium and Hard--plus an unlockable
fourth level.
- Unlike paper puzzles, Crosswords DS can offer help if you get stuck.
By simply touching the hint button above the puzzle, players can
choose to receive another clue, fill in an unknown letter or even
reveal the entire word.
- To input a letter, simply touch a square on the screen and write the
answer just as you would in a paper puzzle. If you make a mistake,
simply write the new letter over the old one--no more messy eraser
bits.
Wordsearch and Anagrams:
- Wordsearch is just like the classic word searches you played as a kid.
Use the DS stylus like a pencil to circle words hidden in a letter-
filled screen. The more difficult the puzzle, the larger the block of
letters you'll need to scan.
- In Anagrams, players are given six random letters that must be
arranged to spell out three-, four-, five- or six-letter words. Even
if you don't identify every suitable combination, you only need to
find a majority of possible words to move on to the next level.

fun for all ages in faily
We took this to the beach and the whole family enjoyed the 3 different games offered on the Crosswords. Even my younger sister(27 yrs.) who never had a nintendo decided she wanted one just to have this game to pick up and play whenever. It has a pause and save so you can stop and play later. |  | Reviewed on 2008-07-08

CrossworDS vs New York Times Crossword
I've played the New York Times Crossword game and was looking for a change of pace when I heard of CrossworDS. Well...I have to say that I like the New Tork Times game better even though CrossworDS has Anagrams and Word Search. I found the game play for CrossworDS to be annoying with the "pink" and "blue" across and down control scheme. The New York Times version is more efficient. That's all I can say in 25 words or less. If anyone out there is a fan of pure crossword play check out the NYT verison. However, CrossworDS is a nice diversion with it's Anagram and Word Search games. | | Reviewed on 2008-06-27
Pretty Neat
This is a good way to idle away time if you are into crosswords and don't have a newspaper handy. Maybe not the greatest game, but you will have to think a little. I look at video gaming (and I include games like this in that) as a good way to kill time when there is nothing better to do or when you are watching TV. This falls into that category very well. I'm only a little way into each 'game' that comes with this, but it is entertaining. Relax and enjoy. | |
