Hungry Cat Nonogram 4+

Been playing this app for a couple of years now and absolutely love it! The puzzles are fun and easy to do, but sometimes provide a nice challenge. However I have been done with all but the weekly puzzle for a long time. Please update with the 2017 set and more puzzles!!

Update- Logged in today to see that the entire app has been revamped. It’s not the same anymore... I just wanted the 2017 set, not a whole new app.

Update- After spending more time on the app with this new update I am rather enjoying it. They’ve given a lot of new puzzles to play and I haven’t even explored all of the new stuff. I do wish that we didn’t have to start back at level 1, with all of the previous playing of this app you’d think it would give you lots of levels. Oh well.

When I first got this game in 2016 or 2017, this game was fun. It had little to no problems, and I am a fan of Picross games in general. But then an update came, and I thought it was fine too. I liked the update, until I figured out that they decided to add something VERY horrible to the game that killed the game. The problem is that you can’t replay a puzzle unless you erase it. You used to be able to retry a puzzle, no matter what. Even if you canceled and didn’t finish the painting, it wouldn’t erase the painting. But now you have to erase the painting and then try to solve it again. Now, this is fine for very easy puzzles, since it’s very easy to memorize the pattern and where the colors go, but if you completed a hard puzzle and you wanted to retry it, then too bad! You have to erase it. And if you quit the puzzle before you finish it, then it still stays erased. HOW STUPID ARE YOU GUYS TO CHANGE SOMETHING LIKE THIS?! I would not recommend downloading this game because of this one stupid update. Unless you’re fine with not replaying puzzles or erasing puzzles to actually replay them. And for you, developers of this game, if you’re reading this, please, please change it back. I am not playing this game until you add the option to restart the puzzle and not erase it, like how it was when I first downloaded it. This is downright ridiculous.

I have really enjoyed this game for a while now. However, after getting my new iPhone XS Max, I’m liking it a lot less. The problem is that the row of paintbrushes at the bottom of the screen are ALL the way at the bottom, which is the same place where iOS puts the horizontal bar that is used to swipe up to get back the phone’s home screen. Because the brushes are so low on the screen, half the time when I tap to switch brushes, the OS thinks I’m beginning an upward swipe to exit the app. This results in the brush not being changed, but I don’t notice that until I start painting squares with the wrong color. If I simply slow down I can avoid this problem, but on the harder levels I’m trying to go fast to get three stars. There is plenty of screen space to move the paint brushes a bit higher on the screen and avoid this problem. Hope the developer sees this review and makes the change.
