## What is Pictosaurus?

How are your visual recognition skills?   What about word recognition?    You'll need both in order to figure out the many puzzles that are in Pictosaurus.   

You'll be presented with an image that is zoomed in on an object.  You need to try and figure out what that object is, from the hint of the image, and the 14 available letters.   

You have 3 kinds of helpers.   A- will remove letters from the possible combinations guiding you toward the answer.   A+ will give you a letter in one of the letters slots of the answer.    Finally, the Zoom hint will zoom out a little more on the image giving you a better view of the object. 

There's no time limit, you can ponder the image as long as you like.   You can even use Facebook and Twitter to take a snapshot of the screen and post it for your friends and family to see if they know what it is, and help you out.

Sharpen your recall, spelling and recognition with this word game that the whole family will enjoy!

### 5/5 — A review

*2025-04-13*

I have all the Donkey games and can’t say enough good things about it, except I hope they make more. 5 stars is not enough. Challenging but not impossible. Try them, you can’t go wrong. By far my favorite apps. Well done Donkey!!

### 5/5 — Fun

*2020-01-28*

Very fun, somewhat challenging. One of my favorites

### 3/5 — Don't quit the game, or else . . . .

*2015-10-08*

...You will lose all the coins you've collected as well as the current magnification setting of the photo you're playing.  Finish a level and use up your coins before quitting .  Also, the option to earn coins for watching video continues as an option apparently even when no more videos are left....click click click, nothing happens annoying

### 5/5 — Lots of fun!
