### 4/5 — Need more levels!

*2026-04-14, version 2.4.3*

There are 17,023 levels. I love the game enough I am awaiting more. Last update was 9 months ago. So minus 1 star for that.

### 3/5 — Pas les dessins promis

*2026-04-11*

Les dessins sont moches

### 3/5 — Hello

*2026-04-03, version 2.4.3*

I hate this game

### 3/5 — Pub trop longue

*2026-02-09*

Pour ne plus avoir de pub bien sûr il faut payer mais est ce définitif ou faut-il re payer au bout d un certain temps ????????

### 3/5 — Easy

*2025-12-20, version 2.4.3*

It is really easy at the beginning levels. I think that it is going to take forever to get to harder levels

### 3/5 — Fun game, but lots of ads

*2025-11-30, version 2.4.3*

Fun game but way too many ads. There's an ad between every level and sometimes another just to get to the home screen. I'd consider paying a one-time fee to remove the ads but the developers want $5 per week. Seems a bit expensive.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-10-06, version 2.4.3*

I don’t know what people mean by too many ads. I’ve gotten 1 every 5-6 levels. Great game! It’s actually like the ads and is really fun.

### 3/5 — Meh

*2025-09-19, version 2.4.3*

Too cutesy. Lose the timer. Too easy.

### 4/5 — Review

*2025-07-29, version 2.4.3*

Love this game so much it tests my brain and really helps exercise it and I play it before I go to bed during the day anytime anywhere it is amazing the only bad thing is there’s adds but otherwise this is one of the best mins games I’ve ever played

### 4/5 — Needs Update

*2025-06-19, version 2.4.2*

Great game but needs updated more often.   Once you finish the puzzles it seems to be 6mon to a year before you will get more

### 4/5 — Very good game recommended to get this

*2025-05-28, version 2.4.2*

This game is pretty nice I recommend getting this game for stress relief

### 5/5 — Super fun!

*2025-05-28, version 2.4.2*

Great experience just a little ads that’s all for a wonderful experience

### 5/5 — FUN(BUT TOO EASY!)

*2025-05-22, version 2.4.2*

Really good game and little to no ads when I play if I could 💯

### 4/5 — Yep

*2025-05-03, version 2.4.2*

It’s so good but I’ve only just got it and I’ve done 10 of them and I have not even been playing for 5 min

### 3/5 — Where did it all go?

*2025-05-03, version 2.4.2*

You used to have more large pictures and packs before the last update are you going to bring them back?

### 5/5 — 제발 20*20으로 많이 만들어주세요

*2025-04-30*

15*15만 나와서 너무 지겨워요ㅠㅠㅠ 20*20더 많이 만들어줘요 특히 여러개로 그림 완성시키는 그거요

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Don’t want a timer

*2026-02-05, version 2.4.3*

This game has a timer on it, which is fine if someone wants that option. But there is no way to turn it off if you don’t want that.

### 1/5 — Extremely sexual ads

*2026-01-14, version 2.4.3*

I have been using this app for years with no issue and I have personal adds turned off. Was treated today to soft core pornography of a sex training app including a between the legs shot of an actor crouching in tight clothing revealing a camel toe and gyrating. Absurd. This game is rated 12+.

### 1/5 — Not even played

*2026-01-05, version 2.4.3*

I downloaded this game because I love puzzles and especially nonogram puzzles given the reviews I thought I’d give it a try but when I open up the app I don’t even load I get stuck on the clouds every single time

### 1/5 — Does not honor purchases

*2025-06-10, version 2.4.2*

I bought the ad free version years ago. It worked great and I enjoyed this game. When I got a new iPad, it did not carry over. I contacted support and sent a copy of my receipt and I still get ads. Deleting this game.

### 1/5 — App keeps crashing

*2024-10-15, version 2.3.7*

This game keeps crashing while in the middle of a puzzle.

### 1/5 — Packs

*2024-07-05, version 2.3.6*

Downloaded for the packs shown in the advertisement, but they don’t actually exist in the game. So disappointed!

### 1/5 — I hate it

*2024-07-05, version 2.3.6*

Pls ban it i hate it its boring and just🤮🤢its so hard and to many ads i know people love it but no

### 1/5 — I like it but…

*2024-06-15, version 2.3.6*

All you do is tap x and it is kind of boring

### 1/5 — Endless ads, freezing levels

*2024-06-13*

I paid to remove ads, but am still required to watch about 6 ads per level I complete. It is incredibly sensitive and unforgiving requiring you to buy large amounts of coins or watch tons of ads as each incorrect click puts you back to restart level or pay coins that are slow to obtain. Also the ads will freeze your game 10% of the time requiring a force close. It is very frustrating and not fun after a ew days, there are better games.

### 1/5 — Ads WAY TOO LONG

*2024-06-12, version 2.3.6*

The ads are from 15 seconds to over a minute. No ad should be longer than 10 seconds.

*2026-05-11, version 2.4.3*

Have finished all the packs and all of the main levels too, hopefully an update will come soon with more levels

### 5/5 — Nostalgia

*2026-04-19, version 2.4.3*

I love this so much,it’s good and not too hard to my opinion.i can beat till 20 by 20sb,after it’s impossible to me

### 5/5 — Ce jeu est trop bien

*2026-04-06*

Ce jeu est parfait pour se reposer et sa relaxe le cerveau pour te détendre. J’accorde ce jeu à tous les gens qui regardent commentaire, il y à même pas de pub, ce jeu est vraiment trop trop trop trop trop trop bien, je mets cinq étoiles, même ça si je pouvais le mettre

### 5/5 — False advertising, but good enough game to excuse that.

*2026-02-17, version 2.4.3*

An incredible Nonogram mobile game. The energy system is never felt since it’s pretty hard to lose levels and you likely won’t do so many in a day and keep getting given infinite energy for an hour, and I appreciate the instant feedback if you do something wrong, even if I find the number of mistakes allowed a bit harsh. It autofilling x’s when you get a row right is satisfying, and the number of ads between levels is low with long levels meaning that the ads are far apart when you do get them. You can also play on airplane mode and avoid them entirely. It’s an incredible game.

My only criticism is the false advertising of doing a small piece of a larger nonogram not being an actual feature. You can do small puzzles to work towards a larger one, but these puzzles are not actually part of the larger artwork. That being said, the game is good enough in my eyes to make up for this false advertising. I just would prefer they didn’t.

### 5/5 — Favourite games
