This is the first picross game I've ever played and it rules. Basically sudoku but good.

It's picross, picross is great. There's no theme or anything except for just doing picross puzzles, so I'd probably recommend Puzzle Makeout League or Murder By Numbers over this, but still - it's picross.

Can't go wrong with a bit of the old Picross can you


setting my completion day as today cause it's the day i finished all the normal levels, i'm not even gonna bother with mega picross that shit's hard!!!

Its very satisfying to complete puzzles and makes you feel smart for doing so.

It's picross. At the moment this one is the most basic of the nintendo switch picross games. But, it's the best for beginners to get start with.

It’s picross babey! It’s good, if somewhat basic. I did not do the no assist puzzles for mega Picross because fuck that honestly, part of the fun of completing Picross puzzles is revealing the cool pixel art and mega Picross is just old puzzles with a more incomprehensible gimmick. I feel like when I get to the games with color picross that’s gonna be a nightmare but they at least give you fun animations.

Lots of time spend playing this game with my girlfriend. There's not much to explain here, you either have fun with this kind of game or you don't. I happen to quite enjoy it.

Normal people when they get a Switch OLED: (test it out on vibrant, beautiful exclusives like Zelda or Mario)
Me when I got a Switch OLED: I'M GONNA FINISH ALL OF MY PICROSS PUZZLES.

I am using this to rate the entire series. Picross is so fucking good. This game provides like 40+ hours of content alone and there's like 6 of these.

I'm going to be playing Jupiter's Picross games for the rest of my life aren't I.

Good.

Mais um picross delicinha pra conta.

Melhor tipo de jogo para meditar sozinho no banheiro, fazendo algo que ninguém pode fazer por você.

Como todos os outros picross, a jogabilidade é a mesma, o que muda são só o formatos dos puzzles, mas é uma fórmula que contínua divertida, talvez nem seja bom mudar mesmo.

a wonderful game to scratch that picross itch, with good quality of life features that i miss in other nonogram games.

a nice rendition of picross, though the lack of coherent theming made it a bit less interesting to me than something like mario's picross

Picross S is, well Picross... Dunno what else to say, it plays fine and it has 300 puzzles (150 regular, 150 Mega, although they're the same images) so it'll keep you busy for a while. If you like this type of puzzles then this is strongly recommended.

I fucking love picross, completed 100% with no assist mode

How can a game both make you smarter and rot your brain at the same time?

Comfy puzzle game, used to do these a lot as a kid. I break it out every now and then whenever I want to feel stupid.

Picross is amazing and it has some nice QoL features such as the count feature and the mark feature.

Gosto bastante de Picross e tinha grandes expectativas para essa série (já tem mais de 8 só no Switch), mas saio um tanto decepcionado desse primeiro título.
Estou acostumado a não achar a figura gerada pelos puzzles muito parecidas com o que deveria ser, mas por ser um jogo de Nintendo Switch eu senti falta de ter um propósito maior de terminar cada desafio. Basicamente terminei todos os do modo Picross sem usar assistências e a única coisa que aconteceu foi aparecer uma medalhinha e aparecer um "Obrigado por jogar".
Várias coisas podiam ser acrescentadas como imagens diferentes de acordo com a performance em cada puzzle, um ranking de tempo, poderiam ser liberados itens, ou os puzzles poderiam ser mais temáticos.
Desanimei de terminar os Mega Picross e dei o jogo como encerrado.

While I appreciate the sheer amount of content in this game, it all feels pretty devoid of character. There is no theming whatsoever (think Picross DS) and the Mega Picross puzzles are just repeats of the regular ones. Additionally, there is exactly one music track that plays during gameplay, which WILL force you to turn it off after hours and hours of listening to it. In one word, it's dull.

[PT-BR] Como usuário compulsivo de Picross, fiquei feliz quando essa série do Switch chegou no Brasil, mas a reação com o primeiro da série (que hj tem 10 jogos) foi morna! UI e UX ótima, mas falta um tempero que lá em 1995 já tinha em Mario's Super Picross e até o freeware Meow Tower para celular tem.

Picross é gostoso de um jeito diferente...

Surprised that they backported quality-of-life updates from later games, such as the cell-counting from S2, touch controls from S7, and 4-player co-op from S8. Solid game, and series overall, for watching friends' streams or work downtime.
