Codeword Unlimited is an application to play the popular word game known as Codeword (also known as Cipher crosswords).
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).
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 8 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 children and English language learners. The number of starting letters can also be specified. Higher scores can be obtained with more difficult codewords.
4) When a player touches a box, all boxes with the same number are highlighted.
5) 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!).
6) The game will show the player if a completed word is wrong (is not in its word list).
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) You can choose the language of the application's word list, by downloading the appropriate dictionary onto your SD card. Available dictionaries are English, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, French, German, Italian, Indonesian, Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Greek, Hungarian, Polish, Portugese, Romanian, Serbian(Latin), Serbian(Cyrillic), Slovak, Slovene, Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian and more coming later.
Other similar applications want you to pay for more Codewords, but this game provides you with endless puzzles, all for free!!
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. It gives these letters to the application called "Crossword Help and Word Solver" (also free to download), which displays the matching words.
Additional Features in the Pay Version:
- No advertisements.
- More difficulty levels
The pay version is available for a small fee.

Go to the "Select Dictionary" option on the Menu button to change the language of the word list. Remember to use the "Early Learner" word difficulty level if you are relatively new to the language.
2) Performance improvements mean start up time is at least two times faster, the app also uses less memory than before.

Fab to pass the time, keeps the grey matter ticking over, like the challenge of beating the previous time set and getting a perfect score.

This is a good app, easy to use, only downside is that it tends tobuse only American spellings, l have to constantly remember this when solving the puzzle, it's ok once you have got your brain in the right gear.
