Comments on: Guess The News! http://www.iphoneapptips.com/200909/guess-the-news/ Reviews of the best iPhone apps Wed, 16 Feb 2011 19:24:02 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Isabella http://www.iphoneapptips.com/200909/guess-the-news/comment-page-1/#comment-30 Isabella Sun, 27 Sep 2009 00:04:42 +0000 http://www.iphoneapptips.com/?p=214#comment-30 Hi Jeff, Thank you for an awesome review! We greatly appreciate your support. You mention one issue: "I have found some to be blank so the only hint to the solution is the actual category I’m in." Sorry, we didn't put this in the documentation. After each article, until a player clears the level (e.g. wins a bronze medal) the amount of text in the hint (i.e. the article caption) is purposely reduced to make the stages progressively more difficult. For example for Classic-Easy the maximum amount of words displayed in the hint for each stage are: 50, 30, 20, 15, 10, 5. Hope this clarifies the progression :) Looking forward to have you check out our next creation! Isabella Hi Jeff,

I do have to make a correction in the review though. The comment I made about the hint from the article being blank is actually intentional based on what level you are on. This was done to make the harder levels more difficult. A very clever way to toughen the playing field. Look for more to come from this company, they definitely know how to make a game interesting!

I love puzzle/word games and have been hearing/reading about this game on Twitter. So I started to search the Internet for reviews ... just to double check on what others think about it. I'll be heading on over the App store to give this game a whirl! Thank you for a great review. I love puzzle/word games and have been hearing/reading about this game on Twitter.
