Hi, I just want to let you know PEGGLES is the most addictive game ever. I used to play bejewelled. Not now. The only problem is my husband is also addicted to PEGGLES, so now there is a race to see who can get on the computer first. Thanks for making it a free game. Keep the games coming.

I have just been playing "Bejewelled". It is a very relaxing game, pleasant, AND OH SO ADDICTIVE! Lovely, thank you uplay staff.

Editor: Our Action Puzzles category has been very popular - I'm quite partial to a few rounds of Chuzzle myself. (It's funny how you only intend to play for half an hour and before you know it whole hours have gone by!)

WOW.... at last somewhere to relax after a hard day's work, getting dinner and cleaning up. there is finally somewhere to go and lose yourself before going to bed. Thank you.

Editor: Hi Lily, Thank you so much for your email and kind words. We're all working very hard on the website and future development so your positive feedback is welcomed. It's great to hear that you're enjoying YouPlay and also finding it relaxing.

Dear YouPlay, Glad to be able to do this online. I have been doing puzzles from Lovatts since I was a teenager. I entered most competitions and i cant imagine my life without doing some sort of puzzles everyday!! I just wondered if there is any quick hand/brain competition, to see how fast we could complete the puzzle, whether it's normal crosswords or sudoku. i really think i have a good chance of winning! i am serious!! ha ha keep up the good work. look forward to play online..

Editor: Thanks for your email, it's great to hear you are a long-term Lovatts fan! We are hard at work getting all the competitions ready to launch on YouPlay in the next few months. When the comps launch you'll have the opportunity to win cash - so it sounds like you could be in with a good chance. Thanks for your support & patience.

At "thepuzzleplayer.com" you kept track of my high score for Wild Words. Will you do that on "youplay.com"? I really enjoyed trying to beat my best score. Also, once you get to the double digit levels, there doesn't seem to be much difference. Do the letters drop more quickly, or are the letter choices less optimal as you get higher?

Schymmom,In the future we will be providing high score tables and individual statistics for all our YouPlay game titles. When this feature is available, it will be rolled out for most of the games at the same time. As Wild Words progresses through each level, the letters fall faster and faster until they reach a maximum speed. We will continue to tweak the settings as needed to make sure the game is challenging enough for our master players. In fun, Dr. Play

I just wanted to thank you for such an entertaining site. My favourite puzzles would have to be the Codecracker and the Addoku, not to mention the Wild Words... I just can't stop playing!
I am just wondering if we will have to pay to play these puzzles in the future? Thanks and keep the puzzles coming!

Editor: Dear Marilyn, We're glad you enjoy the site! Rest assured that all the puzzles you currently enjoy will always remain free to access. We will, however, be introducing some exciting features over the coming months which will become subscriber-based. This will allow you to enter competitions and win fantastic prizes.

To the Lovatts team, Have you no compassion for addicts such as myself? First you hook me on buying all of your magazines, and then today I am assualted with this new YOU PLAY site. Needles to say, I will be led like a lamb to the slaughter and spend even more time taxing my brainbox to try and beat any challenges you throw up. Besides all of the above, well done and thank-you. Ron Poole

Thank you so much for this wonderful new site. I was very disappointed when the Puzzle Player site was discontinued and really missed it. So I'm very happy to see something similar back again only bigger and better. Well Done! Although I don't have a lot of time to play games, I'm sure I will enjoy the site when I can find the time. GrandmaH

Have just signed up and having so much fun. TV is so boring so I will be spending lots of time doing the puzzles etc., some of which I haven't tried before so will give the old brain cells a workover. The future prizes etc will be an added incentive to get in and have a go!! Thanks for making life a bit brighter for us.Bev

Dear Lovatts, Thank you so much for telling me about these crosswords on the YouPlay website. They are easy to follow, well laid out and the Help section is so easy to follow. I also appreciate that we can fill in a word without having to jump over the letters already there. Also, that we can start a crossword and come back later. Well done and congratulations - I will be doing lots of crosswords on line. With kind regards, Maureen Jepson

Editor: Thankyou to all the puzzle fans who have sent in letters about the new site. We love to hear what you think so keep them coming! Remember,YouPlay is growing bigger and brighter every day and there's lots more exciting features and games to look forward to. If there's something you'd like to see, write in and let us know!

I have found my first trial of this intriguing site very rewarding. It has so many different puzzles and games that I will be kept busy for quite some time. Very different from other games sites. More adult in content and very mind testing. Thank you for such a good games site.

Editor: We're glad you like the site, Rae! YouPlay puzzles are a real challenge, but they're also lots of fun! Stay tuned for more exciting games coming soon...

Can you please tell me what happens to all the Wild Words? Do they disappear forever, or do they go on? I'm concerned for their welfare.
Misty-eyed,

Greetings WL. As you know, YouPlay Wild Words is a live dictionary game, which means that all the letter combinations entered are checked LIVE against an official list of more than 100,000 names, terms and acronyms. They only disappear if they're in err (or very, very rare)! So don't worry, no real words have been harmed in the playing of this wild new game. Clickingly, DP.

Thanks for such a great site for me to spend "MY TIME" on, I have even got my mum interested, she has been a lovatts books fan for years, thanks again guys.

My wife has a variety of medical conditions which leave her in a high level of pain. One of the best treatments she recieves is playing on your pages. I just want to say thanks and Jo says thanks as well. She was saying how much she enjoys Chuzzle.

This site is absolutely fantastmagorical! I have been visiting here almost as soon as this website was released publicly. About a month ago I became a member and have played every game on here since. For me, it is great to come home from school and play a variety of games that strengthen my mental abilities. My thanks for your effort in making this website as fun as possible!

A toast to 2008 - may you have health and well being. I recently went ot Japan and at the airport I was tempted to buy a hand held Adduko game but decided it is much more fun to visit YouPlay than sit and play a hand held machine. I also enjoy QuizTime and have recenly found PlayWrite. Is there a short cut to this? It takes ages for me to navigate into this site. Found this site by accident and so glad I did - it is so great to sit down and do a puzzle. Keep up the good site. Jasue
