OK, so perhaps I’m a bit of a broken record, but if you’re a fan of Picross but wish it would throw a greater degree of challenge at you this is really the series you should be checking out. Now, right off the bat, this is the same structure and setup as both of the previous outings, just with a boatload of new puzzles, but I can respect that since the gameplay is so rock-solid. If you’re not sure which one to buy you can cover your eyes and pick one at random, aside from the accompanying art style there’s no real difference, just multicolor puzzles with massive grids, a great power-up system (which you often need at some point), and a very intuitive and easy-to-use interface whether you’re playing with the touchscreen or a controller. It may have an aesthetic people would consider mobile-y or disappointing in some way but you can’t argue with the gameplay.
