I've been enjoying the Luna Story picross (nonogram) games for a couple of years now and have started my way through the "Story" portion of this edition. I love the story so far (including from Luna Story 1 and 2) and look forward to getting through this one. I just have one major gripe: All Of The Ads. I get it. You need ads to keep the game free. I don't mind that. What I DO mind is getting an ad after EVERY SINGLE PUZZLE. And to make things even worse, it's legitimately the SAME FREAKING AD EVERY TIME!! And even WORSE is that there's no button to skip the ad like there was in the other two games. "Just buy the Premium No Ads, 4head." Is what I hear in response, but for $6.99?? No way! If it was $1.99 or $2.99, then maybe I'd do it just to get rid of them between puzzles. But not for $6.99! I recommend the game for the story and the sheer amount of puzzles to do alone, but fair warning to anyone that actually reads reviews: the amount of ads is bonkers, ridiculous, insane, crazy, and several other synonyms that I can't think of at the moment. Developers, PLEASE do something about them!
I am a (mostly) happy ad-free customer and I really enjoy these puzzles, but the ads for extra tries are too lengthy and repetitive. Especially in the 20x20 puzzles, it’s too easy to bump the wrong square (whose tiny fingers can accurately touch the intended square every time?)… and if I’m on my last try, I have to sit through a 30-sec ad just to get one more try. Please consider using 10 to 15-second ads when rewarding one extra try, or please, reward 2 or 3 extra tries per 30-second ad, if you are not interested in opting for shorter ads from your sponsors. Thanks for reading, and keep up the good work. It’s a beautifully-designed app, and I’d gladly rate it 5 stars one day, perhaps after you make these changes, or I’m forced to whittle down my finger tips just to ace these 20x20s.
I played the original PicrossLUNA and then PicrossLUNA2. I took a break from Picross games abs was thrilled to stumble across this next version. There are tons of picross games in the App Store but I keep coming back to this one. It’s the best aesthetically and functionally. I love how the game automatically fills in the Xs when a row is completed so I can save time. I love the interface especially as the grids get larger. These apps have gotten me through some very stressful times including 3 pregnancy’s the last several years. I highly recommend all of them!
