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 — just numbers and time to think. Five sizes: • Tiny — 5Ɨ5. A short break. • Small — 7Ɨ7. A quick warm-up. • Classic — 10Ɨ10. The puzzle you know. • Medium — 12Ɨ12. A slower read. • Wide — 15Ɨ15. A long sit. Twenty-five hand-authored puzzle packs, each themed and arranged for difficulty. Every puzzle is uniquely solvable — 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 — 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 — no IDs, no personal data, no tracking. Your stats live on this device.

Solve the grid, reveal the paintings. Picrasso is a nonogram puzzle game where every grid hides a piece of pixel art. The numbers next to each row and column tell you how many cells to paint, and in which groups. Work it out line by line. When the last cell is painted, the picture gets its colors. HOW TO PLAY • Tap a cell to cross it out • Double-tap a cell to paint it • Drag to cross out or paint a whole line at once • The numbers show the runs of painted cells in that row or column A wrong cell costs you a brush. You get three brushes and three hints for each painting. Run out of brushes and you can watch a short ad to get some back, or start the painting over. There is no timer and no guessing. Every puzzle can be solved with logic alone. THREE ENDLESS MODES • Easy: small grids, and finished lines cross themselves out • Normal: casual grids with clean, readable clues • Challenge: bigger grids and busier clues, up to 15Ɨ15 POINTS, LEADERBOARDS AND BADGES Every finished painting scores points. Your day's and week's points go to two Game Center leaderboards, so you can see where you land against other players, and nine achievements track the paintings you finish along the way. MADE FOR SHORT BREAKS • A small painting fits in a coffee break; the big ones are there when you want to sit down with one • Progress saves after every move, so you can stop at any time • Play offline, no account needed If you like Sudoku, crosswords or other logic puzzles, give Picrasso a try. Picrasso is free to play and shows ads.
