So here's my honest take on Minute Cryptic. I've tested a bunch of word game and puzzle apps, and this one's a pretty solid option. I like how it breaks down the tricky world of cryptic crosswords into bite-sized daily challenges. The video explanations are super helpful for learning the tricks. And it's free to play, so you don't have to spend money to get the full experience. On the downside, the puzzles can start to feel a little repetitive after a while. And the hint system, while useful, doesn't always give you that 'aha' moment of solving it on your own. But overall, it's a pretty fun and accessible way to get into cryptic crosswords.
