### 2/5 — Add Hints and Make it Easier a Bit

*2022-12-28, version 1.0*

After level 15 it’s clearly impossible w out guessing. Add something to help with hints or make it a bit more clear but still challenging.

### 3/5 — Needs hints

*2023-01-05, version 1.0*

I definitely the game a lot but now I’m stuck on level 14 and can’t get past it definitely should have a hint button

### 3/5 — Good game but needs a hint system

*2023-01-04, version 1.0*

Got to Lv. 15 but couldn’t figure it out and resorted to guessing and still couldn’t solve. Game needs a hint system to help you when you get stuck.

### 3/5 — Love the game, but could use a save button

*2022-12-24, version 1.0*

I like how challenging this game is! But it would be a lot better if there was a save button or if it would save your progress when you left the app. 
A hint button would also be helpful!

### 3/5 — Good idea but no hints

*2022-12-23, version 1.0*

Loved this game until level 17. Couldn’t get past it so I just quit playing.

### 3/5 — Great but good be better

*2022-12-15, version 1.0*

As someone who loves both Sudoku and nonograms this game is right up my alley.  I do wish the game offered hints or the ability to skip puzzles though.  It is frustrating that you have to play the same puzzle repeatedly until you figure it out. I see myself getting tired of the game quickly if there doesn’t end up being a way to skip puzzles.  This is unfortunate because I do like the game quite a lot.

### 3/5 — Lots of fun but…

*2022-12-14, version 1.0*

I really enjoy these types of games. The logic is sound and it’s rewarding to figure it out. 

What I’d like to see implemented is an ability to “sketch” a possible square with a guess. 

Maybe add a hint option for times when you just get stuck. 

Really fun though!

### 5/5 — Great game BUT….

*2023-03-15*

We need to be able to save out progress when you can’t finish in one sitting.

### 5/5 — 5 stars ⭐️

*2023-01-19, version 1.0*

So…
I downloaded the game, started playing it, got stuck on level 14, then level 17. I read the reviews and everyone was stuck in this game at some point. I kept trying to pass level 17 and almost gave up, but then I finally passed it and guess what? The game is easier than I thought it would be. Right now I am on level 135 on my phone and level 101 on the iPad. Yeah I got so addicted to the game that I play it on both devices, whatever. Anyway, I think after level 17 the levels started repeating, so it was easier to pass them cause it was the same thing over and over, that’s how I got to level 101 and 135. To make it easier I made screenshots of the hardest levels cause I couldn’t memorize all spots for the squares. It gets easier with time, just eliminate the spots where the blue squares 🟦 cannot go. And I think the developers of the game didn’t create a hint button because it’s actually a really simple game to play. Good luck to everyone, I’m going to continue playing the game, hopefully I’ll reach the end of it.

### 5/5 — Just needs a “settings” button

*2022-12-14, version 1.0*

This game is fun. It just needs a settings button/option to turn the sound off. Sometimes I want to play without hearing the clicks as I am listening to something else on my phone at the same time.
