“It's a bare bones version of nonograms, but you can't beat the price. The user created levels available from the in-game workshop tend to be better than the levels from the main game. I like to have a low engagement…”
“Great free game! The picross puzzles that come with the game are too easy for experienced players, in part because they are often symmetrical and always paint some picture. But there's still the workshop with thousands…”

“The concept is easy to understand, and the gameplay is simple. I just think it is better off being played on mobile when you have to kill some time, not on a laptop or PC.”

“Very nice picross game. A little too much symmetry to be totally interesting but there's definitely some fun puzzles. The workshop is also a nice touch”
“It scratches the itch, although it's pretty basic. For free, though, with no microtransactions? Really good.”

“one of the very few recommendable nonograms on steam. mid-level saving, individually fading clues, undo, etc. the official levels are a bit boring, too much symmetry, but there's a whole lot of workshop levels to go through. half the challenge will be finding decent ones among…”
