About

Picrasso

Features
Read full description

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 15×15 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.
