Pic-a-Pix: Nonogram Color 4+

Great puzzles!

I’ve been doing this kind of puzzle for years. These are some of the best. This app includes genuinely challenging puzzles. You don’t have to spend money to try some harder puzzles. And after you get through them all, there’s also a free weekly released puzzle. I liked it so much, i did buy a couple of puzzle sets. I really enjoy this developers puzzles and I want to support him or her. (If you haven’t seen the other puzzles, you should really check them out... personal opinion, they’re all good.)
I like the interface... the way you choose color or lack of color is intuitive, and the ability to lock the row and column selector is a great feature I don’t remember seeing anywhere else. It’s epically usefully for the large puzzles.
I highly recommend this to experienced puzzle players.
Beginners, there are a few easy games and a set of instructions, but it puzzles get harder fast. I’d say try it. If you find the puzzles too difficult, check out any of the dozen or more competitive apps that have a full set if easy puzzles to warm you up, and then come back and try these again.

Love this BUT...

Absolutely love this game. Conceptis has, by far, the best version of it. My only gripe is that, for regular users, they really should offer WAY more medium plus, hard and very hard versions (color and black and white) in the 35x45 or under range. I'm not ancient, I'm 53, but I still have too much trouble seeing the gigantic ones on my iPad, my eyes start to water and it's not worth it to me. I'd bet money they'd increase their sales on new games and reduce the number of people, like me, that just keep playing puzzles we've already purchased due to lack of variety.

I received your response and understand what you're saying. Thank you for telling me how to do the extra large puzzles and reason for them. Unfortunately I have to jump around the puzzle so much that using the zoom feature and the other options you mentioned just don't allow me the enjoyment I'm looking for. My point is that you should offer MORE puzzles in the range I stated previously. Surely you can create more puzzles in this range. And, for those of us who want medium plus, hard and very hard puzzles, spending money on "packs" that include easy and medium seems like a waste of money.

Developer Response ,

The difficulty levels of Pic-a-Pix puzzles is proportional to their sizes. There is no way one can make the puzzles harder without making them larger. So, although the 35x45 can be very tough in themselves, they are still easier compared to the 60x45. In other words, the 35x45 are labeled "medium" only because they are easier than the 60x45.
Regarding the visual issue, there are various accessibility tools provided in the app which can help seeing the large grids:
- Zooming the grid
- Locking the clue-panes and making them smaller
- Using the rulers
- Using the precision-cursor
There are more explanations in the Help Section. Hope all these tips help

Fantastic game, I'm addicted!

FYI you get 42 puzzles free and one new free puzzle a week. Other packs cost like 2-3 dollars and come with like 20 puzzles. But they're so fun. And it actually has good pictures. I can't find other similar apps that make as good of pics or are as fun to complete. Also I love that there are themed packs—I bought a romantic theme and it had all these cutesy pictures of love and it was adorable! I would totally recommend this game if you like logic puzzles.

Edit: I do have one complaint about this game. I play it on a phone and primarily use my thumb, but the color choices are on the top of the screen, so they aren't comfortable to reach. The bottom of the screen is completely empty, and it seems like it would be a good idea to put the color choices down there where they would be easy and comfortable to reach. It's a little thing but something that's begun to irritate me after playing for a long time. I would love to see this changed in a future update :)
