About

Quiet Pixels

Features
Read full description

Quiet Pixels is a cozy nonogram puzzle game. Each puzzle is a grid with number clues along the top and side. The clues tell you which cells to fill in. When the grid is right, the filled cells reveal a small picture. No timer in cozy mode, no streak penalty, no noise โ€” just numbers and time to think. Five sizes: โ€ข Tiny โ€” 5ร—5. A short break. โ€ข Small โ€” 7ร—7. A quick warm-up. โ€ข Classic โ€” 10ร—10. The puzzle you know. โ€ข Medium โ€” 12ร—12. A slower read. โ€ข Wide โ€” 15ร—15. A long sit. Twenty-five hand-authored puzzle packs, each themed and arranged for difficulty. Every puzzle is uniquely solvable โ€” there's always exactly one answer, and you'll never need to guess. Each puzzle plays in Cozy mode (mistakes are blocked) or Strict mode (mistakes count). One daily puzzle picked at random across all five sizes. Seven languages: English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch. Five themes โ€” Light, Dark, Paper, Dusk, and a colour-blind-friendly Accessible palette. Soft ambient music and gentle haptics. Every sound has a tap-mute on the Home screen, no settings dive needed. No ads. No accounts. No real-money purchases. Anonymous product analytics only โ€” no IDs, no personal data, no tracking. Your stats live on this device.
