Piximo is a nonogram puzzle game — also known as picross, picture cross, and griddlers — where every logic puzzle you solve reveals a cute piece of pixel art. A cosy brain game for a quiet moment to yourself.
Nonogram puzzles — also known as picross, picture cross, griddlers, hanjie, pic-a-pix and Japanese crosswords — are logic puzzles played on a grid. The numbers beside each row and column tell you how many squares to fill. Read the clues, work out what must be filled and what must be empty, and a hidden picture slowly appears. No maths required. Just logic, patience and a quiet moment to yourself.

An interactive tutorial teaches you by doing, not by reading. You will solve your first picross puzzle in under two minutes, and you can come back to it any time.
EVERY PUZZLE IS SOLVABLE BY LOGIC ALONE
This is the promise we care about most. Every single nonogram in Piximo is checked by an automated solver before it ships, and only puzzles with exactly one logical solution are included. You will never be forced to guess, and you will never hit a dead end that was not your mistake.
180+ HAND-CHECKED PUZZLES ACROSS SIX PACKS
Work through themed collections of picture cross puzzles:
• Cute Animals
• Yummy Treats
• Cosmic Quest
• Ocean Splash
• Wild Nature
• Holiday Fun
Grids range from gentle 5x5 warm-ups to challenging 20x20 boards, so there is something for a two-minute break and something for a long evening.
A DAILY CHALLENGE AND A STREAK TO KEEP
A fresh nonogram every day, the same puzzle for every player worldwide. Build a streak, watch your flame grow, and come back tomorrow. Miss a day? A one-time Streak Repair has your back.
COLOUR PICROSS
Multi-colour nonograms where the clues are colour-coded too. A completely different kind of logic puzzle once you are ready for it.
