Each cat has a unique story and specific requests, blending traditional puzzle-solving with a heartwarming pet-care simulation. The game is playable offline and features a charming, hand-drawn art style.

Our Expert Score

89/100

Meow Tower: Nonogram Puzzle is a delightful blend of logic puzzles and 'pet-collector' cozy vibes. The core gameplay revolves around nonograms (also known as Picross), which are solid and well-implemented with a clean interface. However, the real 'hook' is using the rewards from those puzzles to build and furnish an apartment tower for stray cats. Each cat you attract has its own personality and specific furniture requests, which gives you a great reason to keep solving levels.

The art style is incredibly cute and the overall atmosphere is very relaxing, making it a perfect 'before bed' game. It can be played offline, which is a huge plus for commuters. While some of the 'exclusive' cats are behind a paywall, the amount of free content and the satisfaction of seeing your cat tower slowly fill up with happy felines is more than enough for casual players. It turns a standard puzzle genre into a wholesome, rewarding experience.

Meow tower is so fun
Sun Dec 07 2025 Abigail’s iPad

I love meow tower because you can care for cats. I love cats and if you are a cat lover you should totally get this game. I love that you can make music boxes. You also can reach a maximum level on the cats so then you can get presents for them and learn more about them if you press the notebook button, because if you press it you can see how many hearts you have for that cat , see a page of their dairy, learn about secrets, and what you can describe them. Meow tower is also so relaxing and exciting at the same time, that is what I love when I am mad, to do something relaxing like meow tower. Here are some things that I want to change/ don’t like: I want the room keys to be less expensive, and don’t want to have to pay for special cats every holiday if you want it. Can it be if you have 50 gold cans and have to pay like that not with real money? I also dislike that you have to either have to pay with real money or watch an ad to get pencils, I do not want to get pencils to do ether hard or easy logic puzzles. Here are a couple reasons why I love meow tower( look Back at the top if you don’t remember). Here are recommendations for the game: can there be a feature that you could instead of buy (with real money ) the special cat that changes every season, you could just work for 50 gold tuna cans so you do not have to buy it ( with real money ). I also really want a feature that I can play with my others. Thank for reading and PLEASE GET THIS GAME.

If you like nonograms, play this game

Visually, it's awesome. The nonograms are fun, of course. The other part of the game is basically furnishing cats' apartments and it's very satisfying to finish the rooms. It's very cute and calm and I just really love this app. I hope they add more cats and maybe other stuff to do with the game in the future. Oh and the ads are so so so much better than any app I've seen--barely there and when they are, they're not horrible to wait to click out of. You can watch an ad every time u need more pencils which is good, it means u can play the game for as long as u want if you just take 30 second breaks basically. The only issues I have are minor. First, the squares are very small, so even using a phone stylus will cause me to bump other squares which means I make more mistakes. This is frustrating because if you make too many mistakes you lose out on cans, which means you have to restart the same puzzle to get them back. For people with shaky or unreliable hands, this will probably be more frustrating than fun because of that. Two, placing down an "x" counts as a mistake no matter what, which means you can't use them to help you figure out the solution. It makes me kind of sad, because it really helps with how small the squares are, to have a reliable way to count them without losing my place or anything. It was hard for me to adjust to this after playing nonograms my way (using the "x" however I need to) for so long. Overall, this game is very good and anyone who likes nonograms should try it!

Paw-some game
Tue Oct 10 2023 Crunggthedino

This game is incredible cute and draws you in with the graphics alone, but what makes you stay is the fun storylines, the beautiful and interesting new characters and the motivation to collect all of the furniture, and the fun and challenging nonogram puzzles! I’ve already shown this game to multiple of my friends and I can’t wait for more content. The game contains hundreds and hundreds of unique nonograms that will keep you occupied with many different sets and themes to collect all. The designs of the rooms were so adorable and made me want to see what the other rooms would look like when fully decorated, and they really looked like places these cats lived in! There are many unique cats all with interesting dialogue and multiple dialogue options, and an incredibly cute story. As I went along I found myself wanting to befriend all of these cats, and deciding who my favorite is (It’s Dino, I seriously love dinosaurs). Although I wanted to keep playing it cost a certain amount of energy to keep doing puzzles, luckily you could get more energy through minigames or watching an ad. Once I finished collecting all of the cats, my motivation to finish the puzzles dwindled, as I no longer had a goal to work to, but hopefully as they add more cats and furniture that will change! There are also many cute skins to collect and really so much to do without distracting from the main focus of the game. Besides the fact it is the most adorable game I have played in a while, the game itself is very fun and I would recommend it completely!

Best Nonogram App Ever
Mon Mar 24 2025 faelsafe

FIRST: Just a quick point of feedback to the team as someone who's willingly paid for every Special cat and been Ad Free since the beginning; I would pay to permanently double the max amount of pencils that could be recharged, since the Hard puzzles cost 2 Pencils instead of 1 I only get to play 4 puzzles at a time when I'm caught up to the Easy ones. I'd also love the ability to move the cats around so I could put my favorites up top or organize them by theme. NOW: I've played a lot of different nonogram games and all of them have gotten deleted off my phone within a couple weeks of downloading them because it didn't feel like there was a real tangible reward for finishing puzzles (or the reward is a Narrative Story which ends too soon). Meow Tower's art and compact story are the perfectly balanced option to giving me larger goals to work towards and I'm always excited when new cats release, which they've been doing consistently since launch. There are limited time / premium Cats that appear and while $12 might seem like a steep price I'm personally always happy to continue supporting the developers in this way. The premium cats usually feel like they have more items packed into their room and always come with a bunch of bonus pencils and themes for your game board and tower so it feels worth it from a gameplay perspective too.

Very cute and fun, but there’s room for change
Fri Aug 16 2024 Gamegirl🎮

TL;DR: Daily bonuses would be nice I’ve had this game for over a week now, being one that enjoys Nonogram puzzles, and I must say this is probably the best Nonogram game I’ve played thus far. It’s very cute, I love the art style, and I enjoy the achievements, items and cats I can get for every puzzle I complete. Plus while your mistakes can affect how many cans you get, you don’t have to be perfect to get 3 stars. Nor do you lose lives or pencils for redoing one. That is a nice feature to make the game less frustrating on difficult puzzles But there’s at least one thing that I would want to change. The max pencils we can have is 8 and honestly, it doesn’t feel like enough. Especially if you’re doing Hard puzzles that cost 2 for each. So you don’t get to play for very long and would have to wait an hour or two to get them back. The only way you can have endless pencils is if you pay for it for one day. Or buy a truckload for even more. If I may make a suggestion, perhaps daily bonuses could be added? There is a stamp card that at least gets filled up after a week but that’s it. Perhaps to encourage players to play daily for a good amount of time, they could get little items or bonuses for every day they play. Like Day 1 can just be a Hint, then Day 3 you get 15 minutes of infinite pencils. Something like that. All in all, it’s a good game, but there can be more development.

Very Well Made Game

I never (and I mean NEVER) write reviews on games because I personally haven’t played any outstanding games despite playing a lot of mobile games. (And I’m not the type of person to leave bad reviews because I know people have families to feed.) However, Meow Tower is genuinely one of the most well-written games I’ve played in a really long time. Right off the bat, when you open the app, you can tell the creators put a lot of time and effort into it! Everything about it is super cozy and aesthetically pleasing!! It totally shocked me when I found out the production team only consists of two people. Aside from aesthetics, the game has an amazing concept! I’m in love with the kitties and their individual personalities. The puzzles are really fun and not too difficult to solve! And the most important part- there’s not a million ads popping in your face!!! Of course, there is some ads once in a while, which is completely understandable because the creators need a source of income, but they only come once every 20 minutes! I already love this game so much, I even recommended it to my sister, which is totally out of character for me. It saddens me how this game isn’t already on the top charts!! But i’m sure with time, the creators’ hard work and passion will pay off and this game will become super popular! Anyways, DEFINITELY DOWNLOAD!!!

this is the cutest mobile game i’ve ever played!!!

i dont usually write reviews but i just need to express how much i love this game. i dont even remember how i found it but it’s an adorable little hidden gem amongst all the slop clogging up the app store. there’s very few ads and microtransactions. i dont mind the few ads there are, i’m happy to be able to support the devs, and you dont NEED to buy anything to progress in the game at a reasonable rate. the puzzles are fun and there’s a good range of difficulty, the puzzles slowly get more difficult and you can choose between 10x10 and 15x15 depending on what youre feeling. i do hope theres an even harder difficulty level that can be unlocked eventually as the puzzles do start to become a bit too easy after a while. *i also really wish you could turn off the feature that prevents you from making mistakes!! just to add a slight extra challenge.* if i could change one thing abt this game, it would be that. but the best part is not the puzzles but the CATS!!! the art style is so cozy and all the cats are absolutely adorable. they all have unique, funny personalities that are reflected in their room decor. completing the puzzles is so rewarding because you get more opportunities to interact with the cats. all the conversations you have with them are so fun and i love how you slowly get to know them better and their personalities are revealed to you over time. they all feel very 3 dimensional and real while still being silly and cartoony and fun. this game is so relaxing and cozy, the art is gorgeous and the cats’ personalities and dialogue are so precious. im so glad i found this game <3

Super cute but a little easy
Sun May 18 2025 Lady Bellaphram

I cleared out the last picross game I played so I was excited to find a new one that’s cute and not full of ads or microtransactions! (There are still some but it’s no more than you would expect from a free app) I like that completing the nonograms lets you buy furniture for each of the cats and that they all have different personalities. Unfortunately the main reason I play is for the picross puzzles and I find them just a little too easy :( . Not the puzzles themselves, but the fact that the game won’t let you make a mistake. If I misclick a tile, which is easy to do in both tap and button mode, I immediately know if it’s supposed to be filled in or not. And I can’t unfill in the tile either. It really takes some of the fun and satisfaction of solving the puzzle myself when suddenly a misclick has completed 3 rows of a 15x15 puzzle. I understand this mechanic is probably appreciated by people who are newer to nonograms but I do find myself wishing I could turn it off. That’s my only complaint though! The game is super cute and I don’t find that I run out of pencils too often, and even when I do I just watch an add and my bar is completely refilled. It’s great to have on the go and as something to do while watching tv in the evenings!
