## What is Mystery Mosaics 2?

Once scattered throughout the land, the Mosaics of the Ancients have been gathered and brought together at the cradle of their once-glorious civilization. As the only one with the knowledge to decipher their riddles, it now comes to you to free their magic and use it to restore the City of the Ancients and bring a new Golden Age to the kingdom.

Mystery Mosaics II is nonogram (aka Picross, Pic-a-Pix or Paint-by-Numbers) with a colorful twist: This time around, each mosaic is made up of three colors of tile, each of which must be solved separately for three times the fun. The more precise and efficient you are in solving the game's 100 levels, the more points you'll earn and the faster you'll be able to rebuild the structures of the ancient city.

*2023-08-27, version 1.1*

Très bon jeu pour la logique.

### 3/5 — Pretty good

*2023-08-13, version 1.1*

Good logic puzzle game. It let me play about 10 levels by watching ads. After that the only option was to pay $12.99, which is a bit too expensive.

### 3/5 — 'Needs more levels

*2023-05-04, version 1.1*

Needs more free levels price a bit high ads annoying

### 5/5 — Mystery Mosaics 2

*2022-10-09, version 1.1*

Good Game

### 1/5 — Buyer Beware

*2022-03-28*

I hate bait and switch tactics.  Fine if you want to give players an opportunity to try before buying, but say that up front.  I wouldn’t have wasted my time on this if I had known it was going to cost $8.  I’ve played far better games than this for less.

### 5/5 — Great

*2022-03-24, version 1.1*

Love it

### 2/5 — Deceiving

*2022-03-05*

This game is fun until you are asked to buy the game in order to finish the puzzles and the game.
