Misadvertising. There's zero challenge in this game. Game description: "a challenging logical puzzle game, like Nonogram in 3D". Reality: absolutely trivial, mind-numbing levels that you solve on full autopilot while listening to podcasts or talking on the phone. This game has nothing to do with Picross/Nonogram mechanics, it's basically a glorified Paint By Numbers where you're told exactly what to draw so you draw it. I can't even describe the game as "too easy" because that would imply there is at least some challenge that exists here. To demonstrate, I recorded myself playing through one of the level packs (10 puzzles) for the first time. Note that it's a level pack located past mid-game. Result: solved in ~4:40. At least half the time was spent on level transition animations so it puts us at about 15-20 seconds per puzzle. Yeah. It's that bad.

Honestly it was a waste of time but I just wanted to see how long it'll take. I wouldn't downvote a game for just being too easy as there's an audience for this. But I was mislead into buying this thinking it's a challenging nonogram-like (exactly as the game describes itself) but it's not. I suggest you try [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1158470/Voxelgram/]Voxelgram[/url] which is an actual 3d nonogram game where you'll have to do at least [i]some[/i] logical deducitons from time to time.

You like picross games and think this one looks like fun? Please think twice.. I love picross games but this one is more a "struggle with controls" kind of game than a relaxing puzzle game and seeing the response of the developer on the steam forums, this is by choice. Their response on somebody pointing out the struggles they had with the controls is as followed: [i] Thanks for the feedback, we're considering a different controlling way to Picross, this is more like a retro adventure or puzzle game style, that you need to solve the puzzles by limiting controlling ways.[/i] Putting blocks on the ground level isn't a problem, everything above that is a struggle because to place a block on a higher level, you need to place blocks under it first, place the right block and then remove the blocks below again. I was turned off very quickly while I was looking forward to another 3d picross game. I know that my playtime is very little, but that is how unbearable the controls were to me. They removed the demo, so sadly it isn't possible anymore to try it out before buying the game. Another disappointing point is that there is no save options for the levels. You have to finish a level in one sitting or lose your progress.

I'll be honest - I set my hopes too high with this one. I really enjoy Nonogram/Picross games, and was excited by the idea of 3D puzzles as someone with a very spatially oriented brain. Ultimately this is a very simple and cutesy kind of game, without much creativity in the puzzles. If nothing else, it's motivated me to look for the kind of game I actually wanted out of this. The controls are nice.
