Nonogram: Falcross 12+

For years I’ve looked for a game where you actually can have fun and not have to feed the parking meter continually. Began to think none existed. Also, I’ve been practicing drawing for stories for my son. This platform allows its community to make the puzzles. So far I’ve encountered a Grandma who took in a puppy with an injured eye, an artistic former circus performer who reaches out to the community with puzzles, as well as so many beautiful quilt patterns I can dream of snuggling under. There is a Worm who has just started traveling the world. I couldn’t sleep one night and was happy to design a flower basket for someone who had a puzzle “Where’s my Easter Basket” There are some adds, but the developers are generous with tokens. A lot of other games got down to “I’m going to beat this level today or tomorrow or next week just to not have to constantly pay out. When I pay It’s a lot more fun to thank the developers for their work, instead of them making it a grudge match. Thank you Falcross!

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 VERY MUCH appreciate that—but lately I have been noticing problems with plagiarism. I understand art is difficult and every artist gets inspiration from others, but it’s not fair when art and artists who have blatantly plagiarized multiple other artists are feature in daily puzzles/grid. I wish the moderation was a little more stringent (or at least responsive) to reports in general. In the past month, we’ve reported the same “artist” on multiple “pieces” yet they’ve been continuously featured instead of the original artists. For now, plagiarism isn’t a huge issue in the Falcross community, but it is taken very seriously in the art community as a whole and I wish it would be addressed so.

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 are very distracting. I didn’t want to download the new version, but the old one kept freezing so I had to delete the entire app and was extremely disappointed when it came back. Too much animation and I was unable to log back in to my previous account even changing my password didn’t work because their online site lags and honestly looks like it hasn’t been updated for a decade. Very sad that my favorite game is like this now. I would ONLY get this if I were prepared to pay $2.99 to remove the ads (that WEREN’T there before)!! So annoyed- this is the best, WAS the best nanogram puzzle game with a huge selection and constantly growing but it is just hard to relax when you can't even help but to click on ads and then they play immediately when you finish a puzzle too.
