Although I thoroughly enjoy playing this game, it has been increasingly frustrating on the hard levels, as the boxes are sooo small. Even if I'm careful selecting, sometimes it would mark the ones next to it causing me to lose lives (I have quite slender fingers as well). I have stopped playing the app altogether. Is there a way a zoom button can be implemented at least on those hard stages?

I hope the devs are taking these reviews seriously. Ads after puzzles are fine. But having 3+ ads DURING a hard difficulty puzzle is ridiculous. Sure, they're only 5 seconds, but they are the type of ads where you have to hit skip, then another screen with an arrow, then a third screen to finally close get back to the puzzle. I understand you guys have to get paid, but this ain't it.

This game is truly amazing and very relaxing, no time limit. But I do have one problem. The expert mode, it not because it's difficult, I'm really good at the game, my problem is that on expert mode the squares are so small so I keep accidentally hitting the wrong square by accident. I don't have big fingers, I have small hands so this is a problem, other than that, I do recommend! 👍

My one complaint, how have I played nearly 600 levels of this and not had 1 "expert" level? The game will alternate between easy, medium(both 10x10) and hard(15x15) and in the collections tab youll see there's also an expert category but I've never had one. Other than that though this is one of the better apps. The touch accuracy is perfect, ads are mostly skipable after a few seconds, look is clean. I just wish I could get to some of the more challenging stuff and phase out the easy stuff.

I've had this game for 2+ years and it's one of the few I've kept. There's always an optional event going and the best part is that it doesn't bombard you with ads (only short 5 second ads with every other puzzle completed). Also, the game saves your progress if you stop a puzzle mid solution. Would recommend to anyone especially if they want a quick game they can pick up and put down at any time.

I absolutely LOVE this game!! It is my favorite 'mindless', time-killing game to click when I have a few mins. In terms of the GAME, I'd give it 10 stars. The problem is that the game doesn't always save my progress! After exiting the game and coming back, it'd start me over. Sometimes when I click off the game during the Xtra life ad, the board is clear & game starts over when I return. It is so frustrating. Makes me not want to play unless I have unlimited time.

Player of pic cross for years and this one drives me crazy. I am a very visual person, I put blocks down to see how they don't work, as how they work. They penalize for that, can turn it off with classic mode, great. But they have a max square count; if you put all those squares down and one is wrong a pop-up asking if you want to start over. No I don't, I just misplaced one, but it's too easy to hit that restart and loose it all. Then it takes it out of classic mode! So then ❌ and I'm triggered

I love the game. I'm uninstalling it. The ads have progressively gotten worse. It was one thing when it was in between every level, but I just had 5 ads while doing 1 level. I also get an ad when I start the game half the time. I get they make money with ads, but this is excessive.

Great value and variety, but impossible daily goals and event challenges. TONS of puzzles to solve with fun themes and varying difficulties. Only issue is with the Daily Goals and events. These typically require you to complete anywhere from 50-80 puzzles in a day to gain that day's extra puzzle or the event's prize puzzle to add to your collection. The daily goals and events need to be more achievable and realistic.

There are too many and too long ads. Down from 5 stars to 2 stars because of a painful ad experience. I'm looking for alternatives in the same category now. *Responding to developers:* ads used to be like you described, but now, the ads don't give the option to skip until you watch the whole 40-second repeated ad.

The ads stop the game but they don't actually play. So you just get a blank screen that you can't exit out of without closing the app and losing all of your progress on the level. Has been going on for weeks and is very frustrating. Won't play the game and waste time anymore until this is fixed.

Simply put; an easy enough game to understand and play, not really that many ads—albeit, the same ones each time—but, in summary, some people will be FLOORED by this game, and others such as myself, will think, "eh... it's okay, but, nah..." The reason that there's not really 'lukewarm' fans with this game in particular is because [it] becomes VERY repetitive; not THE ADS, but THE GAME itself... Also, the intro tutorial is more "stylized" than thorough and effective, too... A SOLID 3/5 stars. 😌

I liked it on my android tablet until 3 days ago. I shut down my tablet completely several times in hopes it would solve the problem. Nope. The annoying ads stopped loading when I needed to buy a free try. I have to close and start the app. Sometimes that loads the ad and sometimes it doesn't. So, I can't really recommend an app that doesn't have the ability to know that an ad isn't loading or playing or completing its process. An app that can be frozen by an ad isn't good programming.

The game itself is one of my favorite puzzle games, but the experience around it needs tweaking. First, it automatically switches me from Classic to Standard when I just want to reset the board, resulting in more ads from misclicks, and also making solving less engaging. Having to hit undo 100s of times or go into options for a simple reset ain't it. Some ads are fishy, but I'll trust the report feature mentioned. Also, no dark mode. The game itself is great though, I do recommend.

I love this app, enough that it only took about a day for me to pay for the ad-free version! Without ads, getting another hint or another life is just tapping a button, no ad watching required. My only complaint is that some of the daily tasks are way too time-intensive. For example, one of my tasks for today is to 100 puzzles; if I try to get it, that's probably three or four hours of my time! Maybe if I was doing only easy puzzles it would be faster, but also much less interesting.

i had loved this game for months- only a small amount of ads, lots of challenges and levels, and it was good for my brain. but, recently the app has been crashing. my screen will freeze and not let me make any moves, and then the app stops responding and i have to rerun the app. it was fine every once in while, now i can't even complete an easy puzzle without the error. please fix this asap. thanks!

I came back to edit my review. My opinion dropped from 5 stars down to 3 because of the ads. I normally don't mind ads, but lately some of the ads don't function at all. The screen will go blank as tho an ad is about to start, but then nothing happens. And it stays like this...just a black screen with my only option being to exit the game and reopen. However, when I go back in, I then have to watch more ads, and I've usually lost my progress the puzzle. Very frustrating.

Very fun, even got ad free.. However, the bugs seem to get worse and worse. The worst one is that I manually have to tap each square. If I try to drag a whole row, the game will bug out and make it so I lose a life. They also recently added animations throughout levels. It ruins the flow imo. I get why some people may like it, but personally, it's an annoyance for me. Last but not least, I feel like lately, there have been too many challenges to finish. It makes the game feel more stressful imo.

I LOVE this game But - I've been stuck on one level, being forced to restart it over and over again because when an ad happens, it sometimes messes up the game and either closes or restarts it. Either way, resetting my progress on the level. Please fix this so I can change this to a 5 star review!!!!

Honestly, it's a pretty perfect nonogram game. I knocked off a couple of stars because of one problem - they seem to think everyone has infinite time to play. Daily goals routinely involve playing 80 - 100 puzzles, and there's often at least 2 limited time events running concurrently. I will likely uninstall this as soon as I find an equally well-done game that respects my limited time.
