### 4/5 — Literally my favorite nonogram BUT!!!!

*2026-06-04, version 28.0*

PLEASE make a no ad version like i would literally pay for it. The ads are so annoying on this and now theres a constant banner at the bottom?? Girl ill spend a gross ammount of money to not have ads on this

### 5/5 — Definitely the best game of its kind, and possibly the best game on iOS.

*2026-02-03, version 25.2*

There is nothing bad about this game. There are some challenging puzzles that definitely require you to use hints. However, they earned my time watching ads. I have only been frustrated when it was an actual skill issue, not a cash grab issue. 

The only problem with this game is that there is not more of it all the time. Be infinite!!! Practically perfect game. Can’t recommend enough for fans of this type of game.

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2026-01-31, version 25.2*

Amazing game!!!

### 5/5 — 제발 문제 더 주세요

*2026-01-30*

사용하는 노노그램 어플 중 제일 깔끔하고 문제도 좋슴니다 다만 업뎃 주기가 느려서 애타게 잃어버린 애인의 기분으로 플레이중입니다 노노그램 좋아하시면 강추하는 어플입니다

### 5/5 — 제발 수정해주세요 제발

*2026-01-29*

음악 30x30 23번 오류 수정해주세요... 게임 너무 재밌게잘하고 있고 광고도 많이 보고 있습니다...

### 5/5 — Great game, ad problems

*2026-01-28, version 25.2*

For a week or so now when I watch ads for coins, I’m unable to close the ad (even when it says the reward has been earned) so I can’t receive the coins. It was a 5 star app until this started.

### 5/5 — 강력 추천하는 게임!!

*2026-01-22*

퍼즐 좋아하신다면 정말 강력 추천하는 게임입니다!!  퍼즐 완성도도 너무 좋고 몇년째 업데이트도 꾸준히 해주셔서 질리지 않고 못떠나고 하고있어요!!!bb 
좋은 퍼즐 만들어 주셔서 정말 감사합니다!! 하나 부탁은… 다른 기계에도 연동이되게 로그인해서 하던 게임 연동될수 있었으면 좋겠습니다.. 패드에서 크게 하고 싶어도 여기 하던게 아까워 계속 같은 폰으로 하고있습니다.. 곧 폰도 바꿔야하는데 연동할 수 있게 어떻게 안될까요 ㅠㅠ

### 5/5 — 광고 제거

*2026-01-01, version 25.2*

### 5/5 — 굿

*2025-12-19, version 25.2*

다운 받은지 거의 4년 된 거 같아요..❤️ 너므 재밌습니다!!

### 5/5 — Addicting. Love this app.

*2025-12-12, version 25.2*

I love this app. I’ve played this for several years at this point, and I still love it. I’ve finished all 3063/3063 big mode puzzles, and 5955/5955 normal mode puzzles, and am always anticipating the next update, which usually comes every couple months. Review updated 12th December 2025

### 5/5 — 作者様へ

*2025-12-04, version 25.0*

最近「生き物」に追加された#24と#25、イラストとタイトルが逆になっているのではないでしょうか。

いつも楽しく遊ばせていただいてます。ありがとうございます。

### 2/5 — Ad after every 2nd level played

*2025-12-04, version 25.0*

Not a happy camper. Ad after every two levels played is ridiculous. Deleted the app.

### 5/5 — Addicting. Love this app.

*2025-10-24, version 24.1*

I love this app. I’ve played this for several years at this point, and I still love it. I’ve finished all 2963/2963 big mode puzzles, and 5869/5869 normal mode puzzles, and am always anticipating the next update, which usually comes every couple months. Review updated 24th October 2025

### 5/5 — 멋진 게임

*2025-10-22, version 24.1*

멋진 게임

### 5/5 — Everything you could want

*2025-09-22, version 23.0*

Thousands of nonograms in dozens of different categories, with more being added regularly, and I haven’t even touched Big Mode yet. What’s not to love!

### 4/5 — 今のところこれが良い

*2025-09-19, version 23.0*

色々なロジックパズルゲームやって来たが、これが今のところ良いアプリです

良い点は、タイムアタックがないので落ち着いてやれること、戻り機能があること、設定機能が豊富ことですね

逆に悪い点は引き継ぎ機能が無いことです

### 3/5 — 基本的には楽しんでおりますが

*2025-09-17*

タイトルの通り基本的には楽しんでプレイしているのですが、遊んでいて気になった点があったので書き記しておきます。　
①比較的マスが多いパズルであっても完成した絵が答えのものに似ても似つかないことが時々あります。イラロジは完成した絵の芸術性も重要だと思うので絵のクオリティを上げてほしいです。　
②アルファベット/数字のジャンルは他の問題と比べるとあまりにも簡単に推測ができるため、面白みに欠けるなと感じました。　
③タップ入力から十字入力に切り替えた時の入力方法の戻し方をいつでも見られるようにしてほしいです。私は以前誤って十字入力に切り替えてしまったのですが、その時に表示された操作方法？みたいなのを見ずにうっかり閉じてしまい、どうしたらタップ入力に戻すことができるか分からず困ってしまったことがありました。
④ヒント・間違い表示で選ばれるマスが完全にランダムであり論理に基づいていないためヒントとして機能していません。実際ヒントを使用して正解できたことはほぼ無いです。

### 5/5 — Addicting. Love this game.

*2025-09-09, version 23.0*

I love this app. I’ve played this for several years, and I still love it. I’ve finished all 2963/2963 big mode puzzles, and 5691/5691 normal mode puzzles, and am always anticipating the next update, which usually comes every couple months. Review updated 9th September 2025

### 5/5 — こういうアプリを探していた

*2025-08-31, version 23.0*

操作面やパズル盤面のカスタマイズ性が高い！
私は片手でプレイしたい派なのですが、片手で塗りつぶしと単塗りを切り替えられるお絵かきロジックって実はそんなに多くなくて。
やっと見つけたと思ったものの、他の面で悶々とした使い辛さを感じることが多かったのですが、こちらのアプリは操作や盤面のカスタマイズ性が高く、しっくりくる設定が見つかりました！

広告はありますが、パズルを2つ解いたら1かいくらいのペースかつ、広告時間も短い（スキップできる）ので、そこまで気になりません。

他のアプリを終えて次を探している人にオススメしたいです。
きっとあなたにしっくり来る設定が見つかるはず。

### 5/5 — Keeps going and going...

*2025-08-28, version 23.0*

The developers keep adding more puzzles! I've been playing this game for years, never had to pay a dime. There are very few ads, and they're non intrusive. 

I never write reviews, but I figured by now I owed the devs whatever support I could provide

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — 1 minute ads, really

*2024-11-13, version 18.0*

This has been my favorite game for years but I will not sit through 1 minute ads for free hints, bye bye Nonogram999 it’s been fun, until now.

### 1/5 — Free hints gone??

*2024-10-05, version 18.0*

Have played this game for years but all of a sudden there’s no free hints? Please give them back I need them

### 1/5 — 簡単過ぎてつまらない

*2024-10-03, version 18.0*

若い番号以外ほぼ全て0手詰め1手詰めレベルのつまらない問題ばかりで全く面白くない。15×15を1分以内とか20×20を3分以内とかで終わらせられるのは作り手側に問題があるとしか思えません。

### 1/5 — update please!!

*2024-05-04, version 15.0*

needs an update with more puzzles. please

### 1/5 — もっとレビューの意見聞いてー

*2024-04-17*

ヒントコイン買ってても機種変したらデータ消えるとか姑息な稼ぎ方だと思う。 途中で違うアプリ開いたりスマホスリープモードにして戻ってくるとフリーズする。 そのタイミングでヒントコイン使ってるとヒントも貰えず無駄に消える。 どこに何問増えたのかわからない。 newマークとかつけてほしい。 問題数めちゃくちゃ多いし随時更新されるのはめちゃくちゃありがたいからもったいない。

### 1/5 — 아니 왜 자꾸 광고노래가 게임중에 나오는거에요..?

*2024-02-02, version 13.0*

나갔다 들어와도 계속 나오고 배경음악도 없는 게임에서 노래가 왜 나오는지,,

### 1/5 — 움악 좀 꺼줘요

*2023-12-07, version 12.1*

음악 끄는 방법을 찾을 수가 없다

### 1/5 — Latest update won’t load on my ipad

*2023-11-07, version 12.0*

Was a 5-star game but...As of today’s update (Nov 7 23), this app starts to open and then just quits. Reset of pad didn’t help.

Admittedly this is an older ipad, but it still has plenty of storage space left. A game like this shouldn’t really be making particularly heavy demands on it - haven’t noticed any other apps having a problem.

I play it a lot, and I’m worried that if I delete it and reinstall I’ll lose all my progress on puzzles already started/completed. So I’ll wait a couple days and see if it gets fixed with another update before uninstalling it.

### 1/5 — No Ad Free Option

*2023-09-18, version 11.0*

No option to buy ad free. 

Delete

### 1/5 — Used to be my favorite nonogram game….

*2023-08-22, version 10.1*

There are simply too many ads, and the developers don’t even give us the option to pay to remove them. I’ve used this app for a long time and the ads are continuing to get worse. Please give us the option to pay to remove them. I love this app and don’t want to get rid of it, but some of the ads run longer than it takes me to solve a puzzle. Not worth it.

### 5/5 — Endless Fun

*2026-08-06, version 29.0*

I love how they keep adding new puzzles every so often.

### 5/5 — Love

*2026-07-27, version 28.0*

Can’t get enough and I’ve played a ton of picross games

### 5/5 — Addicting. Love this app.

*2026-06-10, version 28.0*

I love this app. I’ve played this for several years at this point, and I still love it. I’ve finished all 3188/3188 big mode puzzles, and 6287/6287 normal mode puzzles, and am always anticipating the next update, which usually comes every couple months. Review updated 10th June 2026.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-04-25, version 27.0*

Been playing this game for at least 7 years. This is the game I always come back to.

### 5/5 — The Best Free Game I’ve Found

*2026-04-23, version 27.0*

I wasn’t even prompted to write this review—I went looking for a way to do it. I’ve been playing this game for years, and puzzles are regularly added. This game is a class act. While others try to make money by pushing ads in your face until they get you to quit, this game has always kept it to one ad per game, no endless arrows or Xs to click on to end the torture—and always under 30 seconds OR LESS. The best thing about these nonograms is the artist. His or her perspective on the images created is IMHO pretty genius. Always recognizable even in the easiest, most pixelated puzzles, the pictures capture the essence of both ordinary and unusual things without being obvious and with using the fewest pixels so puzzles stay under 30x30. I continue to be impressed and I hope my review is a worthwhile reward.

### 5/5 — Addicting. Love this app.

*2026-04-18, version 27.0*

I love this app. I’ve played this for several years at this point, and I still love it. I’ve finished all 3063/3063 big mode puzzles, and 6287/6287 normal mode puzzles, and am always anticipating the next update, which usually comes every couple months. Review updated 18th April 2026.

### 5/5 — BEST NONOGRAM APP EVER

*2026-03-12, version 26.1*

Not even a bot rn, this is the most user friendly and satisfying nonogram app developed. 
I like how you can change the colors, and the cursor pad really helps with the larger puzzles that have smaller boxes. Every puzzle completed is saved in each category to be later admired. Minimal ads, 10/10

### 5/5 — BEST GAME EVER

*2026-03-12, version 26.1*

i love this nongram app so much!!! please never stop making new levels, this is the best puzzle game out there

### 5/5 — Great!

*2026-03-09, version 26.1*

I’ve had this app for some years now and it awesome! No adds during puzzles unless you need a hint, and even then adds are short. And the pictures are fun. Great game all around. Keep up the great work!

### 5/5 — Addicting. Love this app.

*2026-02-14, version 26.1*

I love this app. I’ve played this for several years at this point, and I still love it. I’ve finished all 3063/3063 big mode puzzles, and 6122/6122 normal mode puzzles, and am always anticipating the next update, which usually comes every couple months. Review updated 14th February 2026.
