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.
