CryptoQuip is an authentic reproduction of the classic puzzle game where you decode famous quotes.

To solve the secret message you drag and drop alphabet tiles from your stock onto the spaces on the board. The immersive game play is intentionally calm and engaging, with your game play saved automatically as you drag and drop.

Small details and animations enhance the classic game without losing that classic paper feel. Its your mind versus the witty, wise or obscure quote. The game works in any orientation, and purposefully avoids distracting timers.

Just in case you get stuck, there is an option to show yourself a hint (and were not counting).

With 15 puzzles included, CryptoQuip will keep your brain engaged for hours. If you want to play more you can buy 1000s of puzzles right inside the game.

You can also turn off all the ads through in-app purchase.

The game takes advantage of newer iOS features and layou, but also works well on older devices running iOS 9.3.

Happy code cracking!

Pros and cons of CryptoQuip app for iPhone and iPad

CryptoQuip app good for

There is not enough time to look at the puzzle once it has been completed. As soon as the puzzle has been solved, the screen is cleared. Also, it would be great if each puzzle promoted you with one clue, without having to ask for it, like the crypto quips in the newspapers. Otherwise, a really fun puzzle!
The new feature lets you see the solved puzzle, and the extra puzzles are nice too! Fun gameplay!

Some bad moments

Crashed! I tapped the question mark and then resume game and got a white screen. I want my money back.
Me, too. Tapped the question and got a white screen! When I was able to play this game, it was great and would give it five stars. With this white screen, I wouldnt give this any stars; but Im obliged to give one star.
I love crypto quip from the newspaper...thats how I got started. But, the light blue squares at the top of the page, especially, are too light. Also, it would be nice to have funny sayings/quotes/play on words, etc. Still, crypto quip is fun!
I installed the update, but it still doesnt have the red letters and It still has the disappearing letter issue. Otherwise, I enjoy the puzzles.
Game works fine, but just one set of puzzles is awful limiting. And apparently you can only do them once. I was expecting to be able to work a daily puzzle with the app. Wont support that. Disappointed.
Puzzles OK, but moving letters into position is a clumsy move. This needs a keyboard or a tap technique as used in other puzzle formats
