### 3/5 — Get this on Steam for free!

*2025-12-07*

This is my go-to picross game on PC as it is really well done and allows for user submitted puzzles. While their puzzles are great, what makes this game special on PC is the user-submitted puzzles, and it is sorely missed in this mobile entry. 

It also does not properly fit a modern iPhone screen.

### 2/5 — 15 by 15 level 110 is impossible

*2023-05-19*

Good game, but 15:15 level 110 is unsolvable. All the online guides show a different version of the level and it seems like it was changed since then. Someone is in my house

### 4/5 — Fun and Simple Nonogram Game

*2021-03-20*

Plenty of puzzles from 5x5 up to 15 x 15. Nicely presented with intuitive, simple controls.

One 15 x 15 puzzle appears to be impossible to solve without a fair amount of guesswork and trial and error, which is disappointing, but as it is 1 puzzle out of more than 150 I guess it’s no big deal.

### 5/5 — Well made app with no locked content or ads. Thanks!

*2019-03-25, version 1.22.0*

See title.

### 4/5 — alright

*2018-12-09*

one of the few mobile picross apps that will grey out the row when unfinished but there are multiple puzzles where it is possible to fill out all squares accordingly but puzzle will not finish because it’s not the exact image the game was thinking of (aka multiple solutions for one puzzle but any not intended are considered wrong)
overall pretty nice, i just finished every puzzle.

### 5/5 — Hi

*2018-07-23, version 1.22.0*

It’s meant to be 4.5 and I really enjoy this game. The only think I’ll ask for is a reset button or something to wipe the board thing clean. Regardless, thank you very much for the game. It’s highly appreciated and it’s a lot of fun

### 5/5 — Best Picross game yet

*2018-01-28*

This is the best game of its kind I’ve found so far on the App Store, and I’ve played at least a dozen. There are plenty of puzzles for hours of play time. Most importantly to me, there are no extra gimmicks like colored tiles, underlying stories, cutesy design touches, etc. It’s an elegantly simple design, and best of all it’s completely free!

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2017-09-19*

Just finished it, it was really fun while it lasted

### 5/5 — Fun!!

*2017-03-07, version 1.22.0*

Addicting game!

### 5/5 — Best Picross

*2016-12-22*

I have played way tooooo many of these picross, monogram, griddler, etc. games.  By far this is the best one.  Clean, neat design, no distractions, just enjoy the game and work my brain.  Highly recommend!  Thank you!!  Will you make more??!
