Played this and replayed Mario Picross 1 and Super Mario Picross but only logging this one.

It's picross, you already know if you're gonna like it or not. This one has a lot of character, probably the best of the 3.

Pretty sure this was the first time I ever bought a Japanese copy of a game. Anything for my beloved Picross.

huge picross slut so naturally i had to play one of three picross games with wario in it, and on original hardware no less. stangely, my friend told me loose copies go for like $50 at conventions. i got my copy off ebay for like $11.....

Game Review - originally written by ???

Go and play this game. I am serious. I took a look at this game when I was working at Emucamp (which was rare since I hardly ever tested anything), and I had to add the news the next day, because I was so busy playing it. :) My roommate wondered what the hell I was doing, so I sent him the rom and got him hooked, and my friend walked in on the two of us playing it and HE got hooked, and even started making a PC version of his own, which didn’t last very long. Yes, it is that cool. Everyone go play. There’s even an in-game tutorial, so shut up about not knowing how to play.

Had no idea this existed until not too long ago. It's pretty similar to the first game, though it's wayyyy bigger. Each puzzle is split up into four individual grids which each have their own puzzles, so they can take up to 20 minutes to complete at times, especially in the later levels where things become more complex. Still, it's a lot of fun to blast through them. I did only technically beat half of the game, however, as there is a mode where you play as Wario, and the game doesn't tell you when you make a mistake, which adds a layer of depth to the puzzle solving I don't really enjoy. I didn't do many puzzles on Wario's mode but I completed Mario's which felt plenty satisfying. 4/6

Not as good as Mario's Super Picross on SNES, but pretty solid nonetheless. Worth playing if you like Picross.
