Description
Acrostics are crosswords with a twist: find the hidden quote. This combination of crossword and cryptogram provides an entertaining brain workout. Each letter in the quote is linked to a letter in one of the clue answers. As you fill in more and more answers, more letters will begin to fill the quote grid, until eventually the entire quote is revealed. Once the quote is partially filled in, you can also do this process in reverse – each letter you add to the quote will fill in the corresponding letter in the clue answers. By working back-and-forth, eventually the entire quote and all clue answers will be revealed.
The app includes 60 free quality puzzles with no ads, ever. They range from beginner to expert from renowned publishers like Acrostica, Acrostics by Cyn, Lovatts Puzzles, PennyPress Crostics, Puzzle Baron and Spanish language puzzles from Tav Ripo. Additional puzzle packs containing 48 to 50 puzzles are available for a small fee; the full library is over 6350 puzzles!
Advanced play features include automatic grid updating and indexing, see related cells, multi-level undo, remove errors, and hints. A wide range of difficulty levels will challenge beginners and seasoned players alike.
If you like word games, crosswords or cryptograms, acrostics are a fun way to exercise your brain!

Updates expert awards for puzzles completed when no rating existed. This should be a popular release for long time Acrostic puzzlers! As more puzzles are played, we (anonymously) gather solving times and calculate an "expert time" for every puzzle. If you solved a puzzle before a time is calculated (e.g. a new volume of puzzles), then awards were never given. This should be fixed now, and many of you will find that prior puzzles might now tagged as "Expert" and the badge values will change. A quick reminder, if you use hints in a puzzle, you can't get an Expert rating. Also, if you don't like any of this badge & rating stuff, use Zen mode to hide it all.
Of course, if you're playing Cynthia's new volume (from last week), they don't have solving statistics yet, but when enough of you play, they will be updated!
Also fixes an annoying bug where the keyboard would sometimes hide the current clue (started with recent iOS updates).
As always, email [email protected] if you have any problems, or find us on Facebook or Twitter. Cheers, Michael

I'm sorry. I messed up when we released volumes 35-40 of Penny Dell puzzles a couple of months ago. They were duplicates of volumes 28-34. A sharp eyed player noticed and patiently explained the problem. This release completely replaces those volumes with the brand new no-repeat puzzles. If you've played any puzzles in Penny Dell volumes 35-40, I suggest you tap on Solved Puzzles and clear them. Also, in the last release there was a problem making consecutive volume purchases. This is vastly improved now, so please go ahead and buy lots of volumes :). As always, tap Help – Contact Support to reach me or Drew anytime.Thanks, Michael @ Egghead Games.

Reverts the prior version's "fix" for clearing puzzles, as some completed puzzles were now being cleared for no obvious reason. I'll go back to the drawing board and see if I can work this out. MANY apologies to those affected by this bug. Thanks for your patience while I worked on it. Thanks, Michael @ Egghead Games
4.7.1
2021-12-23
Fixes a bug with clearing Solved Puzzles so they can be played again. Several wonderful customers patiently explained that sometimes after resetting a bunch of puzzles so they could be enjoyed a second time, a few days later they would revert back to being solved. Also fixes a problem with sometimes mismatched "Puzzles Left" counts and a couple of rare crashes.
The clearing bug was a real challenge to find and fix, as it ties into the automatic iCloud backup system, as well as syncing between multiple devices, but it should work as expected now. If you play on multiple devices and have any problems sharing between them, please tap Help – Contact Support in the app and let me know.

Adds Zen mode to hide badge information. Updates and adds Expert times to more puzzles.
** Version 4.6.5 **
It is now simpler to clear puzzles to play them again, or review recently solved puzzles. The new "Solved Puzzles" button near the bottom of the main screen replaces the separate library tab. The bottom tabs have been removed completely and Help is moved to the top of the screen above the badges. This frees up space on the screen and overall simplifies the app (and hopefully I won't get emails asking me how to re-play puzzles anymore!). The User Guide has been updated with information about expert ratings and clearing puzzles.

Best Acrostic Puzzle App Ever
I love acrostic puzzles because the best of them set my brain on fire. This app, especially with v 4.8.9, lets me be fully immersed as I bounce seamlessly from clues to grid and back. I can see what’s important at each stage and enter or erase flawlessly. Egghead Games’ Acrostics is the best acrostic app I’ve ever used, and the range of puzzles goes from easy right up to the acrostaholic pinnacle. My favorite puzzles usually are the themed CynAcrostics, which I find comparable to the New York Times’ acrostics. (Later.) But right now I’m having a wonderful time on her American Acrostic Volume 10, “Puzzling American Music”. I literally can’t put it down as one puzzle feeds into the next!
ptt50,
Loved this app until recently
This is by far the best acrostic format I have played. I have made more than 75 in app purchases for additional puzzles. Lately, it seems the “new” purchases are repeats of old puzzles. I don’t know if I should purchase any more add-ons. I don’t want to buy the same puzzles I have already completed. Can you tell me if this trend of repeating old puzzles continues?
Update: I have updated this review to 5 stars. Michael with customer support worked diligently to correct the problem of repeated puzzles. Resolved the issue and kept me informed all along the way. Would highly recommend!

Great Puzzle App
This is one of my favorite apps. I’ve enjoyed acrostics since I was a kid, but doing them on paper required lots of transferring letters from one part of the puzzle to another (it reminded me of double-entry bookkeeping). With this app, both halves of the puzzle are kept in synch, so it’s easier to guess words and see if they fit. The puzzles themselves are well-constructed, with a mix of tricky and easy clues. And the add-on packs let you keep refreshing new puzzles at a reasonable cost. Many thanks to the developers!
PJ Craigg,
Good puzzles; bad main screen remodels
I love this app bc it makes my favorite kind of puzzles so much more accessible. However, I would really like to be able to delete or at least hide puzzles I do not wish to complete. Also, when I opened the app just now, the “library” was gone, and it looks like I have to do puzzles in the random order the app assigns instead of going in the order of the publishers I choose to do. I give three stars because this is now two updates where the interface has gotten less user friendly and more rigid. Please give an option to hide or delete unwanted puzzles, and/or let the user go by just the publishers and numerical order they want. Thank you

Fun, Challenging Word Puzzles
My Grandma introduced me to acrostic puzzles many years ago; we spent a lot of happy hours chasing down the right word trying to solve the quotations. I love this digital version that I can play anywhere, even while waiting in line at a drive-thru. The puzzles are enlightening as well as challenging, and help keep my old brain in decent functional order. In addition, the support for this app (from Egghead Games) is phenomenal! I’d rate it 10 stars if I could.

If You Like Acrostics, This is the App to Get!
I used to look forward to the Charles Preston Quote-Acrostic in the newspaper every weekend until it was discontinued many years ago. This app is a great replacement! The challenge of the puzzles is the same and the functionality of the app is spot-on. And I don’t have to wait until Saturday for a new puzzle.
Great support! There was a display issue with Dark Mode in iOS13 so I contacted support. The developer, Michael, contacted me a day later to let me know the fix was available in the App Store.

hway61,
Excellent
I’ve spent much too much time solving these double acrostics. I really enjoy this app.
My only complaint is the occasional puzzle where a clue references another clue by its letter. While this is standard in double acrostic puzzles, it slows down the flow by making you count the clues, since they’re not labeled in the game (as they had to be on paper). Since that’s my only complaint, I think we’re doing really well.

Erinreid,
Great acrostic app!
I love this app! However, since the 4.8 update of June 2022, there seems to be no way to purchase puzzle packs on ipad. I've contacted support with no response, I'm hoping posting something here will get someone to notice. I've tried many times and while I can see the packs for sale, there is no way to purchase them. Please help! EDIT: problem fixed in new 4.8.1 version! Support was great!
D147258369,
Good; could be great
Good puzzles and interface. However, unlike nearly every other word puzzle, this one lacks the option to skip already filled spaces. Especially at the end, when filling in the last spots scattered through the quote, it's tedious to have to either re-type or to select each box individually. Please include this option and I'll buy puzzle packs and I'll give you five stars.

No support for Apple Pencil
4 stars because I like acrostics. That rating would be an easy 5 if Apple Pencil were supported. I’m playing it on an iPad, and the size of the quotation is very small and tapping on an individual letter is difficult. I understand there’s a lot of info to display and compromises must be made. That tapping would be much easier if a tap with an Apple Pencil brought up the keyboard, rather than the drawing interface, as it is done in Cryptograms, another 5 star app by Egghead.
