### 4/5 — Amazing but…

*2026-03-04, version 1.8.14*

I love this game… adore it…. I play literally every night to go to sleep. HOWEVER, there is one single level that black screens the game every time I try to click it. It’s the jellyfish level on the animals section. I’ve competed the rest but the jellyfish I am heartbroken…

### 4/5 — Well done

*2025-07-21, version 1.8.14*

A fun Nonogram with lots of levels, progression in difficulty is very steady, keeps the game relaxing and challenging at the same time.

### 3/5 — Pets

*2025-04-12, version 1.8.14*

Is every pet a dog? Or am I just randomly solving dogs? I’m not even going in order.

### 4/5 — Perfect game except for…

*2025-03-16, version 1.8.14*

I love this game -it’s extremely well done! Nice interface, lots of levels, the ads aren’t overwhelming, and the facts at the end of each puzzle are interesting. The only thing I really dislike is that it’s not more obvious to me if I’m filling a square or marking it, so I frequently lose lives thinking I have the other option toggled on. 5 stars if this could be improved!

### 5/5 — Best nonogram / picross I’ve found

*2025-03-02, version 1.8.14*

Great images, soothing music, an overall great experience.

### 5/5 — Needs more Levels

*2025-02-18, version 1.8.14*

Disappointed that I am running out of levels.  I wish there was more.

### 3/5 — Horrible controls

*2025-01-26, version 1.8.11*

The gameplay is great. However the gameplay is brought down by bad controls that don’t work half of the time.

### 3/5 — too many ads

*2025-01-12, version 1.8.10*

the game itself is fun but having an ad everything level is quite unpleasant

### 5/5 — addiction

*2025-01-02, version 1.8.10*

i have an unhealthy addiction to this game and i’m completely okay with that

### 5/5 — Loved it

*2024-11-30, version 1.8.10*

The game is simple, fun, and not bloated with ads. A diamond in the rough.

Pls add more devs… I finished it and now I’m sad.

### 5/5 — My everything

*2024-10-28, version 1.8.10*

This is the best app ever!!!! I’m begging you to make more evolution ones 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤞🏼❤️ I play every night and need this 😢

### 5/5 — Love it but

*2024-10-05, version 1.8.10*

Love this game but I’ve finished it and there’s no more levels. Are there any hidden or extra levels?

### 4/5 — Amazing but

*2024-08-24, version 1.8.10*

Some of the puzzles seem wrong with the number blocks. I can complete it but because the numbers aren’t matched it won’t let me move onto the next puzzle. I then have to restart and sometimes these puzzles take 10+ minutes and I don’t want to have to reply the level I just beat because the game decided to bug out. Other than that it’s perfect, just gotta figure out why the puzzles aren’t working properly

### 5/5 — More puzzles please!

*2024-08-16, version 1.8.10*

I love this game. But I've finished all the puzzles. More please, sir!

### 3/5 — App crashes

*2024-07-23, version 1.8.10*

The game is awesome! Really fun and relaxing. But for some reason, it keeps crashing.
I’ve uninstalled it and reinstalled the game and this is the second time around and it’s starting to crash again. I like everything in the game, just wish it wouldn’t crash, because I want to play it!

### 5/5 — Great nonogram app

*2024-07-22, version 1.8.10*

Easy to use and fun! A lot of games too!

### 5/5 — Absolutely solid game

*2024-07-06, version 1.8.10*

I mean it does what is advertised. Its a amazing puzzle nonogram game and doesn’t have an atrocious freenium business model. I’m not gonna suggest this to everyone I know but its good if you like puzzles.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Israeli propaganda

*2026-05-10, version 1.8.14*

I immediately uninstalled it once i saw it included israel into its fun fact. Disgusting.

### 1/5 — Small UI

*2024-04-01, version 1.8.10*

The UI on here is awful. There’s got to be a better way than what you’ve got set up, because it’s frustrating to interact with.

### 1/5 — Errors in the game

*2024-03-04, version 1.8.10*

The set up and play are nice but there have been errors in the last 3-4 puzzles I have played, with number clues that don’t match the color blocks. Even if you manage to solve the puzzles despite the errors the game won’t recognize them as finished so you have to quit the finished puzzle and leave it unsaved. Knowing these 2 things might happen take the fun out of all the puzzles

### 1/5 — Ads

*2023-11-12, version 1.8.10*

The app keeps opening some survey as if I’m tapping the banner ad even though I’m not touching the bottom of the screen. This happens every level that I play and is extremely irritating.

### 1/5 — Ads…..

*2023-07-19, version 1.8.7*

Love this game, so much so that I bought the “Ad free” version. 
I am STILL getting adverts to watch for extra lives.
I want a refund………or better still……….no adverts!!!

### 1/5 — Life system is dumb

*2023-03-23, version 1.8.6*

This game features a life system that basically makes this trial and error rather then a fun puzzle game and there is no way to turn it off

### 1/5 — The puzzles are just wrong

*2023-03-14, version 1.8.6*

Great atmosphere but can’t really play since the puzzles are actually wrong.

### 1/5 — Stolen content.

*2022-11-27, version 1.8.0*

The game is fine. However I’ve discovered that not only are many of the item descriptions wrong (a strawberry is not a multiple fruit, it is an aggregate fruit), the description of the lotus plant is copied word for word from theculturetrip.com. I appreciate a lot of effort goes into making a game but if you’re gonna quote something exactly, please give credit where credit is due.

### 2/5 — No hints

*2025-09-02, version 1.8.14*

If you run out of hints you have the option to watch an add. But it doesn’t work. Tharp stays on add page and there isn’t a way to get back to the game. If you close app and reload the game there still iarent hints. Frustrating and needs to be fixed.

### 3/5 — Level 100. Still waiting!

*2026-05-31, version 1.8.14*

Still waiting for level 100 in the animals puzzle pack to be fixed. It been almost a year!

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Nice game

*2026-03-14, version 1.8.14*

I like this game and level so beautiful

### 5/5 — Enjoyable overall

*2026-02-08, version 1.8.14*

The hypostomus is glitched where it’s stuck on a black screen

### 5/5 — It’s good but…

*2025-08-28, version 1.8.14*

I know this game is fun and there are endless levels to play with but can you fix one problem? In the animals selection when I get to the hundredth puzzle it’s just a black screen, so I suggest you should fix it, it’s still good by the way

### 5/5 — 100%

*2025-08-11, version 1.8.14*

I completed the whole game and I miss it already. It has no in app purchases and short ads after each puzzle but if you turn off your internet it’s just straight puzzles

### 5/5 — Please add more levels

*2025-07-21, version 1.8.14*

This game I’ve very relaxing to play. I loved playing it while watching tv in the evenings. The only downside is, I’ve finished all the levels. 
Developers please add more levels.

### 5/5 — Level 100

*2025-07-20, version 1.8.14*

Level 100 in the animals puzzles is not loading for me please fix soon. Thank you

### 5/5 — Well worth it

*2025-06-27, version 1.8.14*

Sometimes I just need something to quiet the noise in my mind for just a few minutes. This app is perfect!  And the info about the image when you complete it is a fun little reward.

### 5/5 — Lion

*2025-06-06*

The lion level puzzle 99 (the one after the Kalij Pheasant) in the animals section I bugged. When you click into it, it doesn’t load it’s just a black screen please fix soon. If possible. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Lion

*2025-06-02*

The lion level in the animals section I bugged. When you click into it, it doesn’t load it’s just a black screen please fix soon. If possible. Thank you.

### 5/5 — I won

*2025-03-21, version 1.8.14*

After over 1500 puzzles I’ve finished and I can safely say it was pretty good
