Who it's for
This game is for nonogram enthusiasts who enjoy a vast library of community-created puzzles and social interaction R6. It's particularly suited for those who appreciate relaxing gameplay and the ability to create their own puzzles R5R39. However, it is not recommended for users who are sensitive to frequent ads, expect reliable in-app purchases, or play on iPhones where controls and zoom are problematic R1R111.
Evidence note: The recent reviews show a strong negative trend, particularly regarding ads, IAP issues, and app stability, which contradicts the high lifetime rating. The developer's release notes claim improved controls and bug fixes, but recent reviews directly contradict these claims, with many users reporting worsened controls and persistent bugs.

- [R6] Best nonogram game! Create as well as play 💜: This is truly the best nonogram game available. Not only are there an incredible number of games in five sizes, both online offline, you can create your own puzzles. There are amazingly creative puzzles, truly works of art. And many different stores of puzzles; so, something for everyone. There is also a great community of people who play and creat
- [R8] Social Puzzle Game: It’s an incredible app, there truly feels like their is community in the game. People leave kind comments and you can make beautiful puzzles.
- [R11] Player for Years!: I’ve played Falcross for years! The reason why I choose this Nonogram game over others is because of the gameplay and it’s community. I’ve gotten really accustomed to the Cursor playstyle that isn’t available on most other games. I also love that there are a lot of puzzles made by the community that we can share and play. The community is very lowkey, and for the most part, I V
- [R4] Thank you!: Thank you so much for updating this game with dark mode. All the changes have been great and I am forever grateful that I can now play in bed!
- [R5] Best app: Most stress free, enjoyable, creative game ever
- [R26] Played 100s of levels at this point: Falcross is beautiful and helps with analytical thought. I have thoroughly enjoyed it, and expect to for years to come. (If nothing else I recommend it as a game you can play during an airplane flight.fun and relaxing Would recommend for burning time
- [R37] Super fun and relaxing: 👆🏼👆🏼👆🏼
- [R39] Falcross: I must say this is my favorite game ever. It really provides an outlet for creativity which is amazing. Thanks for making it so simple and easy to use.
- [R2] NO MORE ENERGY: Finally removed the energy cost to play a puzzle! Best nonogram game on the AppStore!
- [R16] Premium Account Option?: I began playing this game years ago when there was an energy limit, but few ads and all puzzle packs were playable for everyone. I didn’t play for quite awhile and discovered many changes when I returned to play. The energy requirement is gone, which is good. The number of ads, like in many other games, is simply ridiculous, which is obviously not good. $2.99 to elim
- [R12] This is what I get for helping the developers?: Edit: On JULY 14th 23’, I PAID to have ADS REMOVED. As of AUGUST 3RD, I’m still getting ADS & they keep asking for another $2.99 to REMOVE them because I thought I was helping the developers. I thought it might take a few days for it to register, but it’s almost 3 WEEKS LATER and I’m Still getting them. I’m NOT ONE BIT HAPPY!!! Fix this ASAP (if ne
- [R15] Good game but….: I enjoy playing this game. Unfortunately though I am deleting it because of the ads. I paid $2.99 for an ad free game but the ads still keep coming. If I’m still going to get the ads then please refund my $2.99.
- [R24] Remove Ads doesn’t work: I have tried repeatedly to pay $2.99 to remove ads, but it says I’ve bought it already and would I like to restore my purchase. And yet ads keep popping up. I’m disappointed.
- [R27] Scammers: Charged me to remove ads and still getting near constant pop up ads. They should not be allowed to sel on the app since they are con artists.
- [R21] Frozen: I thought the frozen app was something on my end but I see others are having the same issue. When I open the app I see new puzzles from people I follow but I can’t do anything with the page. I messaged support a week ago and they replied quickly saying they would get back with me as soon as possible. I’m still waiting for a fix because I really enjoy the puzzles.
- [R22] Love this game but: This has been my daily go to game for years. Suddenly yesterday I can’t use it AT ALL. The app loads the main page comes up but nothing responds. I know people have sent me puzzles but that area remains grey. So very very disappointed that this stopped working with no apparent reason why. I’ve tried everything except deleting and reinstalling and it still won’t work.
- [R23] Frozen: I have played this game for years and it’s helped me fall asleep many many times. For the last week and a half I’ve tried to open the game and it is completely frozen. I can’t access the puzzles or anything. I reached out to support and received no response. If I delete the app I lose all the hundreds of hours I’ve put in. I guess it’s back to sleepless nights and hoping this gets sorted
- [R34] Falcross rating: I absolutely love Falcross and have been playing it for several years. Thank you for this wonderful game. 🤗👍🏻🌺 But today my Falcross game froze. I cannot figure out how to get it working again. I have probably completed a thousand puzzles and I am afraid that if I delete this app, I will lose everything I’ve learned and completed. Can you help me, please? Thank you!!!, Chrystab
- [R7] Fav: Loveee this game! So addictive. My only issue is that I want to join the community, but every time I try to sign up, it says my email is already in use :( I’ve tried a bunch of different emails and usernames but can’t get an account set up. Still love the game, but would like this fixed!
- [R9] sign up not working.: Ive tried to sign up. Its not working. dev, fix tomorrow.
- [R14] Can’t sign in: I tried and tried… please fix this!!!!
- [R40] I love it but...: I really love this app but I’ve been having an issue where when I try to log in with my account I just made it tells me that my log in information is wrong when I know it’s correct. I e-mailed support about this issue and I haven’t gotten a response. :(
- [R1] New update: I love this game but the cursor controls with the new update are really bad:(
- [R104] LET ME ZOOM: this has been my absolute favorite game for the longest time but in the new update i can’t zoom with 2 fingers anymore??? it’s such a small thing but it’s ruined the entire game for me. at least make it an option i can turn on please
- [R111] Game is solid, wouldn’t recommend on an iPhone though: The game itself is great. Plenty of puzzles, great ui, and custom made levels, making it a delight to play. However, the cursor is really really hard to control, and since you can’t zoom in on large puzzles, 20x20 and 25x25 puzzles are literally unplayable on my iPhone XR. It’s incredibly frustrating to keep accidentally clicking on tiles whil
- [R261] Not as good after the last update: I recently updated the game and I really dislike the new interface. It’s not as enjoyable to play as before. The big part at the bottom is really big and my fingers hit it accidentally all the time. I also don’t like the new visuals, it tires the eye after a while and you don’t really want to open the game.
- [R20] Used to be the best!: Hate playing now! Before, you only had to watch ads if you wanted to get more “currency” and now there are ads that play like every 3 games you win. On top of that, there is a running ad just below where you change from filling in to x-ing out and I’ve clicked it almost every game. Now you have to pay to get rid of these ads and for a game that requires concentration, these a
- [R25] Ads are out of hand: This game used to be fun but now it’s inundated with ads. I get interrupted a lot when I play, every time my screen times out I get an ad and it seems like there’s an ad every two or three puzzles. So, unless you want to pay to play, I’d suggest a different game.
- [R87] Unskippable Ads: What the title says
- [R146] Update today: Just updated it and i went from over a 1000 red dots to 248.... not happy about that at all..
- [R220] Help me get my progress back!: I love this game and have played it for years. BUT after the 5.2 upgrade, I lost my progress. There are no instructions with the release to fix it!! I WANT MY PROGRESS BACK! Please answer my emails.
- [R376] Upgrade to v5 reset all my progress.: Latest upgrade reset all solved puzzles.
- [R47] Lives again: I just want to play, not die because I put my finger on wrong square
- [R112] I Like the game but it could be better...: I just started getting into Picross so I downloaded a couple picross apps. This one caught my eye because you can make your own puzzles! It’s like any other picross game (which isn’t a bad thing) but the one problem is energy and lives. Every time you mess up on 1 tile when playing a puzzle, it’ll take a life away, once you run out of lives, you have to r
- [R132] I agree with “Game Ended” reviewer: I really don’t like that you are only given so many chances to pick the right squares. I should be able to finish a game regardless of how many wrong moves I make. I guess this isn’t the game for me. I’ll look for something else similar without the”wrong move” errors ending the game early. Too bad. I liked it otherwise.
- [R135] 3 stars: Would be 5 stars if you didn’t have to wait for it to reload lightning to play puzzles.
- [R129] No customer support: I quite like this game but there seems to be no way to get a response from customer support. I wanted an answer to a question about a very offensive player name (they were also making strange puzzles) and received no response. Looking at others’ comments in their suggestions area it is common to get no answer. Please reply to customers! Other than that there are some smaller
- [R307] Falcross: I am addicted to falcross only wasn't impressed when the price put up for the Help and having to use those to play the online games
- [R309] Loved this game but not now: I had been playing this game for about a year or more and I had purchased all the levels, everything. Since updating the game, they are now going to charge me £1.99 per level and I had already made this purchase before the update. I would not recommend downloading unless you want to keep paying for the levels that you have already purchased. SO ANGRY ABOUT THIS!!!
- [R328] Great game, some glitches with latest update: I am addicted to this game! As such I purchased all the games for the one-off price, however the latest update offers new games to buy at individual prices but still offers all the games for the same one-off price, surely if someone can pay the same price now for all games as I did previously then the new games should be included for me too!? Also, tr
- [R92] Potential, but...: Commits the one unforgivable sin of a logic puzzle - accepts incorrect spots, and provides no way to undo it. In one instance, I accidentally put in a whole row of X’s and the game accepted it, then gave me no way to either undo or overwrite. The only way is to restart the puzzle, which is a non-starter on a 25x25 grid.
- [R117] I wish there was an undo button: I want to love it, but I hate having to reset a game because I click the wrong square. Please make an undo button?
- [R125] Great for the most part: I am enjoying it a lot. Relaxing and fun. I agree with previous reviewers though that it’s annoying when it automatically tells you that u did something wrong. Sometimes my finger accidentally hits the wrong square and i am penalized for it. It is more fun to figure out my mistakes on my own. Perhaps it could be an optional feature. I also agree that sometimes the individu
- [R160] It’s okay: I think this game would be good for someone just starting out on these types of games. For me, I really dislike the energy because I can only play a few games at a time and it takes forever to get more energy. I also don’t like how it immediately tells you if you made an error. It makes it less challenging, and honestly more boring.
- [R42] good game: I really like the game but I have two issues. 1) I now have to pay tokens to publish a puzzle even when I want to choose the free option. 2) I think you should be able to use all the colors from all the pallets. When i switch to a different pallet all my colors change. Can you please make it so I can use all the colors on one of my puzzles?
- [R58] Color choices: Great game! The only reason I’m not giving a 5 star review is the lack of color choices when making puzzles! There’s times I look and say I could use one from each pallet. I feel that’s limiting the puzzles I would make
- [R60] I Adore This Game, But...: I honestly am in love with Falcross and I can’t get enough. My only complaint is that there’s not enough colors to choose from. If there was a way we could make our own pallets or choose from an endless amount of colors, this game would be 5 stars hands down. But as it stands, there’s a lot of puzzle ideas I have I can’t do because of the lack of colors.
- [R59] Making a static noise: I realized recently that whenever the game is open on my phone or even running in the background there is a weird static noise, I have the music and sound turned off and my phone doesn’t make the noise with any other app. I’m not sure what’s causing it, but I’d be a liar if I said it didn’t make me a little paranoid
- [R67] Please fix this!: I used to love this game, and if it worked right I still would. However, since the latest update it only works part of the time. First, I cannot join the community. Every time I try, I am told that my password needs to be only lower case letters and numbers when it already is. Then I was booted out every time I spun the prize wheel. That was fixed, but now I can’t play more
- [R72] Updated app: I love this game, it’s relaxing, and makes me think. However in the updated version the developers took away the daily pack. I always looked forward to it being new.
- [R91] Daily Puzzles: I can’t access any of the online parts of the game even when I’m sure I’m connected to WiFi or have data But the puzzles I do have are fun
- [R165] Needs fixed: Love this game. Since the recent update the blocks are being whited out. I can’t see the blocks I am choosing anymore. Makes it almost impossible to complete a level now.
- [R143] It’s a fun game, but...: I love the puzzles, this game is great for that, but the whole “energy” concept has really turned me off to the game lately. It’s a game I like to play while I watch tv, and I can only do a few puzzles before I run out of energy and have to stop playing. I love puzzle games, but I don’t like apps that punish you for using them.
