Loomora
Read full descriptionHide full description
Loomora is a nonogram — picross, griddler, hanjie — reimagined as cross stitch. The board is a piece of linen. The numbers along each row and column tell you how the stitches are grouped: "3 1" means three in a row, a gap, then one. Read the clues, work out where the thread goes, and a small hand-made scene appears under your needle: a heart, a cat, a mushroom, a cup of tea. NO GUESSING. EVER. Every pattern is generated from a seed and then handed to a solver, and it is only kept if the solver can reconstruct it by pure line logic. That means the solution is unique and reachable by deduction — never by a coin flip. If you are stuck, there is something left to work out. DELIBERATELY KIND • A wrong square costs a star. It never ends the game • Marking empty squares with an X is free and never penalised • Undo goes back as far as you like, and a hint fills in a real square • No lives, no energy, no countdown, nothing nagging you to come back THREE WAYS TO PLAY • Campaign — boards grow from 5x5 to 12x12 as you do, with pinch to zoom on the big ones • Daily Challenge — one pattern a day, the same one for every player in the world, with times to compare and a streak to keep • Collections — four themed chapters of hand-picked patterns, some of them in colour, with a reward for finishing a chapter THE ALBUM Finished embroideries go into an album; the ones you have not stitched yet wait as an empty hoop. Any piece can be shared as a framed poster. FOURTEEN QUIET ACHIEVEMENTS First stitch, collector, a week's streak, a month's streak, level 25. Soft goals, no pressure. MADE TO BE READABLE VoiceOver reads every square and every clue. Colour-blind assistance gives each thread its own shape as well as its own colour, so a colour pattern is never a guessing game about hue. FREE, AND HONEST ABOUT IT The whole game is free and complete. Coins are earned by playing and pay for hints; you can buy them in packs if you would rather not wait — each pack says exactly how many coins it gives — or watch an ad to earn a hint without spending any. There are no loot boxes, no random rewards and no subscription: the only other thing you can buy is the themes, all of them at once and for good, and a theme changes the linen, the thread and the accent colour, never the puzzle. A hint fills in a square you could have deduced yourself; no purchase skips the logic, or a board. Ads pay for the rest, and one purchase removes them for good. PLAYS OFFLINE Everything except the daily leaderboard works with no connection at all. There is no account, no sign-up and no name: your progress lives on your phone.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MindPlay at none against Loomora's 5. MindPlay also leads on iOS requirement (16.6 vs 18.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
