User Reviews on Picross mobile
Looking for more information? Read a comprehensive review of Picross mobile below:
Great app! Keep up your good work~
Love this app!! We purchased more and can’t get enough!! Please make more puzzles to purchase!
This is our favorite picross app – the puzzles are intricate and challenging. The only thing is the prices for the in-app purchases aren’t listed anywhere in the app, making it extremely difficult to determine their price short of buying them blindly. Please make this more clear!
Are you going to update to IOS 11?
We downloaded a whole bunch of picross games and liked this one the best. The puzzles are challenging and we love the colored picross as well. The only thing we would change is better controls.
We couldn’t restore our puzzles we ever bought.
The games are great, the curser issue however needs to be fixed. We would give a 5 star rating except for the frequent crashing of the controls, making the game unplayable. We have bought many games but again am unable to play. Please fix the glitch!
The only set back on the game is that the control isn’t the best. But we love those puzzles we even bought extra! We love that they are difficult! We hated the ones you have to tap three times to switch to fill, empty or back to empty.
There’s a bug that needs attention. The cursor loses control and runs around the board. It’s pissing us off!
We really enjoy the puzzles, but the controls get messed up pretty often to the point where it’ll continuously be scrolling and it won’t stop. The only thing that seems to fix it is to completely close the program and then we lose progress on our puzzle. We never even noticed it until we paid for the extra puzzles, which annoys us.
The pictures you make are really good and we also like the control pad setting since we are using a small screen. We do not like that the x’s do not get skipped over. We also like the colored pictures, but the met requirements do not cross out. Over all an ok version, but not our favorite.
We would totally love this version of this game, however, a lot of them take quite awhile to do, and it does not save your progress. Because of that we will probably be uninstalling and trying another that saves progress. It’s too bad, we really like the puzzles in this one.
After working some fun puzzles, the curser became uncontrollable. We could not mark blocks. Had to delete and reload app. We had to redo the puzzles. Then the curser once again became uncontrollable. We became frustrated and will delete and forget about this one.
This app has some potential but not to much. Its really hard on a phone to control the cursol, since your thumbs will end up covering the screen. Some puzzles we found had a lot of errors (I got all green on ‘boat’ but it made a pig? And it never finished either, either the puzzles is wrong or the system doesnt count some errors) which, acutally yes this program also seems to hve trouble picking up on when there is an error too, we had one that had to many blocks, but still gave us all green…
We were really enjoying this app, too bad it has a bug that makes unplayable.
We played this app a few times ( there’s much better nanogram apps out there), and it prompted us to buy more puzzles. We figured why not, we starting to like this app. For $1.99 it gave us about 20 color puzzles. So then it prompted us to buy 621 puzzles for $2.99. We figured what a great deal. Well all 621 puzzles are in black and white and our 3 year old could do them. We’re very frustrated and annoyed!!!
Impossible to play on phone. Don’t waste your time or money!
We had previously purchased the expansions for this app on our previous phone. When we tried to play it on our new phone all our purchases were erased and it was telling us we need to purchase again. We feel like we have been ripped off. In addition, there is NO way to contact the developer to fix this. We did like the game but now we are very annoyed. If you are the developer please restore our purchases.
The controls are impossible. We were unable to use the app at all.
It was great, but we needed to reinstall it after buying all the b/w and color puzzles but the app wants us to pay for them. We would like to restore our purchase.
It was impossible to play! It would keep marking whole rows of boxes instead of just one box, or groups of five boxes. Totally unusable.
Very labor intensive to add color. LAME.
We’ve tried several pic-cross apps, and keep coming back to this one each time. Couple of features I’d like: hints; ability to review completed pictures at full size; save on exit (if you return to menu, it saves, but you loose all if you exit while still in the puzzle.)
Since the update every new picture we start restarts if we leave the app. Not to happy especially when we have to restart on a picture that we’re almost done with. :/ other than that we love this app it’s a lot of fun especially if you want to pass the time. :)
We think we have solved soother (pacifier), sonic, and pelican correctly but am not credited.
Horrible interface, don’t waste your time downloading this game.
By far one of the BEST and most addictive nonogram games available!!! We spent weeks (and dozens of hours!) finishing up all levels. We anxiously await the arrival of more puzzles!!!!! Five stars, for sure!!
Puzzles are challenging and fun.
But must be updtd for ipads, ciz of not so comfatable usage.
Since updating to the most recent version, all previously completed crosses show as white squares in the menu. Also if we leave the app midway through a cross most of the time it now forgets all our progress. Neither of these were problems before this. Please do some bug squashing.
(FYI this review only applies for those using phones. Tablet experience may vary.) There are some basic things that make this game just… Not playable. For one, it’s in Engrish (english poorly translated from another language). Also it only displays sideways, not good for those who prefer to hold the phone upright. But the BIGGEST problem is that it’s TOO SMALL. In order to fit a whole puzzle onscreen, every tile is tiny. Like way smaller than the tip of any finger or stylus. Can take many tries to hit the tile you’re aiming for, which is made worse by the need to tap a tile 2 or 3 times consecutively to change modes. This might be fine if w could simply zoom in & out, but THERE IS NO ZOOM.. This app might work fine on a tablet, but it is definitely not suitable for an iPhone.
The description of this app states that there are 150 puzzles included there was actually less than half of that when we downloaded it this morning :-( And there is no apparent way to contact them other than to leave a review… The app support link goes to a Safari page that does not exist! Given all the negative comments about this update we’re not sure it’s worth even trying…
We enjoy the challenges! We would love more puzzles! We like that you are not sure if the answer is right or wrong. Great puzzle game!
Best pic puzzle in the app store!
Great game. Very good controls. Needs more puzzles.
The controls work great. We have a question though it states ten new puzzles everyday but we dont see this happening. We see 7 new ones that have been there for a few days now. We were going to ask under app support but tells us no site? Would have rated higher but we want what is advertised. Still waiting for more games. PLEASE.
This is one of the better nonogram games on the App Store but the bugs greatly diminish our pleasure in playing it. The biggest problem is that some puzzles don’t display all the clues for a given row, which makes solving that puzzle using logic alone (as opposed to guessing) nearly impossible. Maybe this isn’t a problem on an iPad, but as we play solely on our phone, it’s a major issue.
Hundreds of games — many hours’ worth — for so little money. Nice range of challenge, well-done images, lots to love, little to dislike.
Good and enjoyable application.
We love this game for a couple reasons – the picture/puzzles are really nice, and there are what seems like thousands of them. Unfortunately, the app doesn’t like to remember our work, so if we don’t finish in one sitting, we have to start over, which can be a bummer when you’re 3/4 done with a particularly complicated one. Also, we love the joystick controls for the iPhone – makes it feasible to do the larger puzzles – but the touch on the rest of the screen isn’t disabled, so it’s easy to accidentally mess up, which can have far-reaching consequences. Fix these two things and ill upgrade to 5 stars!
Great nonogram puzzle. Great controls and reasonable price. We only wish it had a zoom function for iPhone. And of course, optimize for iPhone 5.
The best picross app on the iPhone! We love it. We paided the $1.99 for all the puzzles. A small price to pay for 600 picross puzzles!!
Been looking for a game like this for a long time. So pleased with it!! No problems, but we hope we don’t end up having to pay for new puzzles later.
Not perfect. Just wonderful in this imperfect world.
Best drawcrostic so far. A lot of freebies, good challenges, and no glitches w/app yet.
This is a good representation of the genre. We love the aesthetics of the design. The controls take a little getting used to and a demo/training level wouldn’t go amiss. Our big complaint that keeps this from 5 stars is that some puzzles have the hints off the edge of the screen. In certain cases, the puzzles are essentially unsolvable without excessive amounts of guess work. Otherwise, it’s great.
