I am willing to pay but the Pay/shopping cart option doesn’t work ### 4/5 — Amazing, but… *2025-03-02* This game is one of my favorite childhood games. I love it so much! The puzzle and cute story, a beautiful game it’s also VERY underrated and deserves more players and bigger attention. Biggest issue is ads. If the game had no ads it would’ve been wayyy better. The ads are very annoying. ### 3/5 — beautiful graphics *2023-08-30, version 7.3* There’s a lot of repeating within the chapters. ### 4/5 — Relaxing *2023-05-14* This game is so relaxing. I used to play this game before, but it was on another device from multiple years ago. It doesn’t matter because the game itself is something worth playing again. All the years I didn’t get to play this game have made me excited to see if the experience still holds up. The nights I spent playing this game instead of sleeping.. ### 4/5 — Relaxing *2022-12-17, version 7.3* Relaxing and satisfying. ### 5/5 — Beautiful *2022-08-30* It takes talent to have nonograms that are challenging but not frustrating in difficulty. The artwork is lovely, nice storyline and the ads are there but not oppressive. My very favorite nonogram game. Good job! ### 5/5 — とても面白い *2022-07-24, version 7.2* 他のゲームより癒されるゲームです♪ ### 4/5 — I love it!! *2022-07-20, version 7.2* The art is great, playing to ease stress is a good idea. Light music, love it☺️ ### 4/5 — ヒントボタンの位置… *2022-06-27, version 7.2* ヒントボタンが一番下の真ん中辺りのマスに少し被っているせいで、誤って使ってしまい正直邪魔です。 ### 5/5 — must play 🥰 *2022-06-08, version 7.2* very beautiful and chill, nice game ### 5/5 — <3 *2022-06-02, version 7.2* Todas las veces que he cambiado de celular, me descargo este juego, se me hace muy adictivo aunque ya haya leído la historia completa un par de veces, realmente me encanta. Los pixelarts, la historia, los gráficos y diseño de personajes, estilo y coloreado, simplemente, lo amo tanto que lo recomiendo totalmente<333 ### 4/5 — Nice game *2022-03-18, version 7.2* It’s adorable, not especially difficult but it’s cute and the art is delightful. I enjoyed it. ### 3/5 — Solid and Fun But With one BIG annoyance *2022-01-22* Every time you leave the app, it takes you all the way back to the main menu where you have to tap a button, then tap another button, then tap another button, then sit through animations that are only skippable if you wait for them to start, then hit the skip button. Every. Time. Developer: PLEASE make the app remember where we left off! Or at least give us an option to disable animations. Such a pain… ### 5/5 — 💖💖💖 *2021-12-23, version 7.2* I love this 💖💖💖 ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2021-11-21, version 7.2* I love this game. ### 4/5 — 画面構成 *2021-11-20, version 7.2* ヒントの位置が悪い タイル画面に被っているのでヒントを使う気が無いのに 押してしまう事が有る。 それさえ無ければ⭐️5ですね。 ### 5/5 — Amazing game! *2021-11-13* This is my all time favorite game. I completed it about 2 months ago but it was very fun and challenging at times. I really like the mechanic where you can turn off the lives. ### 5/5 — It’s a great game *2021-10-22, version 7.2* I’ve just started playing so take this as you wish, but so far the puzzles haven’t been too difficult and the scenery of the game is fantastic! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — WAY TOO MANY ADS *2025-10-01* I first found this game YEARS ago and I loved it but had to delete for storage on my phone and forgot about it. Saw it recently when going through previously downloaded apps and decided to download it again. Same game, but there are ads after every single level. Even the non-story options. Which, if you take a bit to finish them then I guess it’s not a big deal but I finish these levels really quickly so I have to sit through an ad every 5-10 seconds. And if I exit out to try to avoid the ads, I have to go back through the menu and it takes just as long as the ads to get back to the level I was on. Super frustrating. I miss when games were literally JUST games and not full of ads. I get the concept of ads and why they’re there, but it’s annoying as h e l l. ### 1/5 — 出来ない *2021-10-12, version 7.2* チャプター1？指示通りしてたけど画面固まって何も出来ない。 ### 1/5 — Short game? *2021-04-19, version 7.2* Played the tutorial and the game ended. Not much of a game, when you can’t play more than that. Unless there’s a trick to continue. Waste of time. ### 1/5 — Hate this developer s games *2020-11-01* The first game I played by them was very nice but none of the rest have worked since. Every game I’ve tried freezes up during the first screen. Will not be downloading any more of their apps. ### 1/5 — 재밌으나 아이폰 X max 안됨 *2019-05-03* 가려짐 **Developer response:** 게임 이용에 불편을 드려 죄송합니다. 1.4버전에서 문제를 해결하였습니다. ### 1/5 — 設定ボタン邪魔 *2019-04-29, version 1.0* なんとかしてほしい。 ### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne pas sur iPhone 4S *2019-04-28, version 1.0* Impossible d’ouvrir l’application, qui quitte immédiatement après l’écran d’accueil. ### 2/5 — 广告太多 *2025-07-22* 画风还不错但是平均过三四关就会弹视频广告 ### 2/5 — Good but too many ads *2020-07-06, version 7.2* One ad every 2 puzzles ### 2/5 — Leider verbuggt *2019-10-13, version 7.1* Das Spiel an sich ist ganz nett, auch wenn die Story sich mir noch nicht so ganz erschließt. Ich bin in Nonogramm-Rätseln ziemlich gut, deswegen ärgert es mich, dass bereits im ich glaube 7. Level die ersten Fehler waren. Darin gab es gleich mehrere Fehler in den Reihen und Spalten. Bsp: angezeigt ist 5 1, wenn es man es entsprechend korrekt ausfüllt, zeigt er einem die 5 als Fehler an und macht daraus 3 1 1. Schade, da wechsel ich lieber wieder zur Konkurrenz ohne Musik und Story, dafür mit korrekten Rätseln. Bei euch lernen auch Neulinge nicht, wie das Spiel richtig funktioniert. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Ravie de l’avoir retrouvée! *2025-08-26, version 7.3* J’ai peinée à le retrouver des années après, mais la recherche en valait la peine! Un jeu qui répond aux attentes du joueur : casse tête avec juste ce qu’il faut de challenge, des illustrations riches, sans trop de pub, et avec une histoire immersive et efficace. Il mériterait selon moi beaucoup plus d’attention pour ceux qui cherche un jeu qui fait travailler les méninges tout en détendant de par son atmosphère! Merci à l’équipe derrière ce jeux qui m’a beaucoup satisfaite de par son gameplay simple et efficace👌 (Non je n’ai pas été payée pour mon commentaire ce jeu m’a juste vraiment plu x)) ### 5/5 — Sequel/More Lore??? *2025-07-12, version 7.3* I adore this game sooo much when I was younger and up until now, I was quite relieved it would still be here in the AppStore after some years of not playing. I have just finished the First and Second Story of the Main game and I am now heading onto completing the Normal Levels. This game truly has inspired me to love Nonogram puzzles to the fullest; and I just feel sad about almost completing everything in this game. Developer, I would understand clearly if you don’t have any plans on continuing or doing anything with the story or game itself; but I would be entirely happy, just hear back from you after so many years, on any opinion you have about the game’s future, and whether this game will unfold into something new, or stay where it is 👍❤️‍🩹 ### 5/5 — Relaxing and can be quick *2025-02-05* It’s a perfect game for me because you can pick it up at any time, and play for a short time or as long as you want. I like the music. I’ve finished the whole thing a couple times and have replayed it over the years. ### 5/5 — Love it *2024-06-26* I absolutely love this game. Peaceful yet addictive. I enjoy it so much that Ihave played start to end so many times. I finish the game and reset and start over. Also love the graphic design. This game has given me so many hours of joy. Huge Thank you to the developer. ### 5/5 — Really Great *2024-02-04* I don’t really like nano grams nor am I good at them but I wanted to try and like them. I think what really hooked me was the storyline and visuals ### 5/5 — Best nonogram *2023-12-28* Very relaxing. The colors, art and music are all perfect. I play this before bed to help me relax and wind down. The 20x20 ones are a little too big to play easily on a phone screen, so I just play the 10x10s and 15x15s over several weeks then reset it and play them again. I have some other nonogram games but this one is my favorite. ### 5/5 — Captivating *2023-08-07, version 7.3* Strangely addictive. I feel smart when I solve the nonograms, giving me happy hormones ### 5/5 — Best Nonagram Game *2023-05-17* I refuse to play any other nonagram game, this one is adorable and has a lovely storyline, and the game itself is very fun and forgiving. Love this game so much!! ### 5/5 — Great game, must try *2022-11-23, version 7.2* I bought a No Ads as a token for my gratitude, your game was so great, i do enjoy alot, more relaxing music please, suit for me much, thank you. ### 5/5 — Meditative fun that stimulates the brain a bit *2022-09-27, version 7.2* An excellent alternative to checking social media on my phone, and a good stress-buster. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
