I became addicted to this game recently and have spent many hours of my time playing this game. I don’t mind the annoying ads popping up since I can do other things while it plays, but recently an issue for me has arise and is that when ever I tried to get on it shows the game icon but then I receive a black screen and it crashes. I’ve tried to reinstall it and discovered all my progress is gone but I don’t mind that since I play it to just to pass the time but I still get the black screen and crashed app. Is there anyways to help this because I’ve been going on other apps similar to this and it’s not as fun as this one. I’d like to play again but for now I guess I’ll stop since I really can’t play because of this issue.

I downloaded this game because I love picross games. I’ve poured hours into Picture Cross and completed it’s thousands of puzzles. However, I was extremely disappointed to realize this is a simply a copy of that game, Picture Cross. After playing a few puzzles of the main board, I realized the puzzles are on the exact same spot and the solutions are copies of the Picture Cross puzzles. The only difference is the finished image which is colored differently, often leading to confusingly colored images that don’t fit what the image represents. I wouldn’t be surprised if the entire board was an exact copy. Even the same tutorial is used (Easy as Pi)! Such low effort used as it’s essentially a copy of a game released years ago. Not to mention the way rows and columns automatically fill with X’s when it detects it’s filled, and erases all of them again when a square is removed. This often leads to frustrating moments when I had manually X’ed a box only for it to be removed later. There should be an option to disable this automatic X’ing. Actually, I’ll just play Picture Cross, which is the original game where Pixel Cross stole all 400 solutions from. Developers, try to be original next time. It can’t be hard to create original pixel art puzzles, but I suppose stealing 400 from another game is a much more effortless way to create a game. What a shame. 1/5.

My big issue is the ads. You try to watch one to get some diamonds or coins, and it says it not available. This can go on for days just to get one ad. That’s pretty ridiculous that have to wait days for 10 gems or 250 coins. The cost of puzzles is also ridiculous. Some puzzles cost up to 35 gems. Combine that with the earlier issue and you have the recipe for a game I forget about for days at a time. Finally, it’s very difficult for me to figure out these puzzles with logic, and I often need hints. Even then, they don’t always help. It’s not just me; I have another picture cross game that I can work out logically, and I only need one or two hints for. And even then that’s not on all puzzles. Overall, I would suggest Nonogram for your picture cross puzzles and not this. The puzzles are free, you have daily pictures, and you don’t have to worry about restarting the whole puzzle cause you did it wrong due to the life system.

Lately I’ve been not being able to watch adds to double my daily awards to to get more diamonds. So you guys get money for us watching adds but it just popsJust the black works saying loading... but nothing loads no matter how many times I click it or restart the game it’s been doing this for over 3 days now and I would like to be able to watch adds for more diamonds. I know this might be a strange review because people usually hate adds but you know when you’re watching to get stuff and you can’t it’s kinda upsetting and irritating.
