“Dingbats is perfect for those who love logic puzzles or are wordsmiths. The app is very well-designed with smooth physics and nicely contrasting colors. This app is well worth the price tag, so go give your brain a workout.” - AppSafari.com

“Dingbats is a fun, but challenging game. Some of the puzzles are not too difficult to figure out, while other puzzles can be quite difficult. The game is entertaining and definitely passes the time. If you are into word games, you can not go wrong with Dingbats.” - CasualGamerChick.com
