## What is Pixie Grid?

Pixie Grid is a cozy picture-reveal logic puzzle. Solve the nonogram, and your finished grid blooms into a warm, hand-illustrated picture — a small gift you made yourself.

No lives. No energy gates. Just you, the clues, and a calm place to think. Free to play, with ads — remove them anytime.

HOW NONOGRAMS WORK
• The numbers beside each row and column are run-lengths — how many cells to fill in a row, in order
• A clue of "3 1" means a run of 3 filled cells, a gap, then 1 filled cell
• Use logic to work out which cells must be filled and which stay empty
• Fill the grid correctly and the hidden picture is revealed
• Tap to fill, hold to mark, drag to paint a line — undo as much as you like

A COZY CAMPAIGN
• Work through a relaxing campaign across 5 difficulty tiers
• From a gentle 5×5 all the way up to a 15×15 Expert chew
• Every puzzle has one solution and is solvable by pure logic — no guessing, fair by design
• Earn up to 3 mastery stars per level for a flawless solve (no mistakes, no hints) — it rewards clean solving, never speed

A NEW PICTURE EVERY DAY
• One cozy daily puzzle, the same picture for everyone
• Share a spoiler-free result with friends — it never gives the picture away
• Keep a gentle, backfillable streak; miss a day and simply solve it later, no punishment
• A 30-day login reward calendar — play any day to claim it

QUESTS & REWARDS
• Optional daily and weekly quests with little bonus objectives — ignore them completely if you like
• Earn Credits as you play, from stars, quests, and your login streak
• Collect procedural background skins to make the game your own

NO-FAIL, NO-RUSH
• No mistake counter, no game over — undo freely
• Choose a relaxing no-error-check mode or a gentle assist
• No forced timer on the board; an optional time-challenge mode is there if you want it, and it is off by default

PLAYS YOUR WAY
• Dark mode for candle-lit evening solving
• Dynamic Type, VoiceOver, colorblind-safe, and reduce-motion friendly

FAIR & HONEST
• Free to play, supported by ads — remove ads anytime with a one-time purchase
• Optional Credits buy only comfort (extra hints, a reveal-line helper) and cosmetic skins — never an unfair advantage
• Every single level is 100% solvable for free — no pay-to-win
• No loot boxes, no randomized purchases, no energy gate, no lives, no subscription
• Credits are stored on your device; unspent Credits stay with this install
• Restore Purchases is always available

Pixie Grid is the calm daily ritual the nonogram has been missing — warm, fair, and yours. Sit down, pour a cup of tea, and reveal today's picture.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1.0 — 2026-08-11

A fresh look, a bigger background collection, and a batch of fixes.

NEW
- Redesigned home screen: Continue, Quick Play, Daily and Campaign all in one glance, no scrolling.
- Quick Play: start any grid size with a single tap.
- Resume: leave a puzzle mid-solve and come back exactly where you left off.
- 15 all-new backgrounds, from quiet paper and linen textures to a drifting koi pond, a firefly meadow, city lights, auroras and two hand-built space scenes with hidden surprises on a slow loop.
- Earned backgrounds now show a labelled progress bar so you can see how close the next one is.

FIXED
- Campaign progress could stop saving after syncing between devices. Fixed.
- A hint could lock the wrong square and leave a puzzle unsolvable. Fixed.
- The Backgrounds screen no longer glitches while scrolling.
- Backgrounds you had already earned can be equipped again.

CHANGED
- Campaign level rewards are now 5 credits for 1 star, 10 for 2 stars and 15 for 3 stars. Replaying a level pays the difference when you improve your rating.
- The background collection has been rebuilt from scratch, so the earlier set is no longer available.
