How To Play
At each level you are presented with a Scrabble style crossword in which some of the letter tiles have swapped places, and your job is, surprisingly, to swap them back again.
You can only swap tiles of the same type: Ends, straights, corners, 3-ways or 4-ways.
If, in your innocent excitement, you make a swap that doesn't return both tiles to their original places, the crossword will be rescrambled, and you have to start over.
The Present and the Future
This first version of Crossnerd is meant as an introduction for greater things to come and as an invitation to help shape the future of Crossnerd. We have ambitious plans for the game, including the addition of new game modes, a level builder and, of course, lots of new exciting level packs. But it's all up to you.

Unique
by Ihavnoclue - Version 1.0 - June 7, 2010
Saw this on greatappaday and downloaded. It's a very unique game and with a great concept. At first I thought the like tiles rule would ruin the game but it can still require a little bit of thinking with it -

This is a great puzzle game and a fantastic app. It's as smooth and intuitive as you like with great animations and visuals. I don't do joining facebook groups (sorry dev!) but will purchase the premium version when it comes out. -
AWESOME App!
by Pjujeweled - Version 1.0 - June 6, 2010
I adore this game, it's amazing and very addictive! Go check their Crossnerd facebook profile and click "like" because they won't release it until they got 1 000 "likes" and I WON'T be the only one who wants the full version for just $0,99 ! Aweeesooomeeee -
Showin some developer love
by I Am Young Money21 - Version 1.0 - June 1, 2010
Saw your post on iPhone dev sdk. Seriously is a great game. I hope you get the amount if traffic your looking for. You just need that one big break. Definately a game I would buy. A challenging game that is beautifully designed is an A+. Keep it up guys. Nice work. -
Really fun to play!

Really fun to play!! -
Interesting take on the word game
by waysid - Version 1.0 - May 29, 2010
It's more of a puzzle game rather than a word game per se. A lot of fun and I bet it gets pretty challenging. We need the full version asap. -
Awesome!
by candipops - Version 1.0 - May 28, 2010
This is an amazing app and by that I mean absolutely AMAZING! Please add more levels!!!!! -
What a cool, fun game - will for sure buy full version
by Sheep Pig - Version 1.0 - May 28, 2010
Could not resist trying when I read review in Appletell then the reviews on Itunes. It is easy to learn and I think more challenging levels will be fun too. You can play just a few minutes or become engrossed and play longer than you think. The tutorial was great and even had a sense of humor. Hope the full version comes out soon. -
Well-designed and fun, I want more!
by juret - Version 1.0 - May 27, 2010
Really well made and unique game. Definitely want more levels. -
Proud to be a Crossnerd!
by Crosswordgal - Version 1.0 - May 24, 2010
A great game for word game/puzzle lovers. The last levels of the game are the best because they become a real challenge. Can't wait for the full version to get more puzzles! -
Really fun - would definitely by this!!!
by Julesthebee - Version 1.0 - May 23, 2010

Really nice app to have on the bus or train when going to work. I just hope for more level packs to come out soon. I would not have any problems with paying for some more levels.
