Has a lot of good to it, shop w/items, attacking enemies, Moving pictures, only thing, anything after 15 grid is hard not to make mistakes since you can't zoom. No big deal, but you lose money to gain money, can't farm but little so run out quick in later levels, and grids get smaller w/o zoom so constant finger slips. All excusable with a free game but for a priced one & 5.50 at that, that's a Big ask to excuse at a big price. And nobody wants zen (invincibility except for money) mode!

I like the idea of mixing picross and RPG, but this game doesn't do it that well. The RPG-elements are really only a facade of what is effectively just a time limit to complete a puzzle. A miss-click can be all it takes to force you to start again. Completing a picross under a tight time limit is not that fun and all it does is encourage memorisation and repetition. As the puzzles get larger, it also becomes very hard to see properly on a phone screen and I've basically had to throw in the towel at 15x20 size. Edit: Zen mode definitely helps, so thanks for letting me know! If all you want is a regular picross game though, then there are better ones out there (for free) that also include more features.

Hi Andrew, thank you for your feedback! Actually, there is a zen mode you can enable on the option page. We hope the game will be more enjoyable for you this way.
