Everybody's Picross

"Everybody's Picross" is a challenging online puzzle game absolutely for free! Traditionally the game "Picross" that was born in Europe but now is so popular in Japan consists of a grid with numbers. Your goal is to mark in black the squares so that the hidden mysterious picture would appear. Usually those are easy pictures: animals, flowers but it's not easy to find out its shape and location of the image. The numbers tell us how many squares in that particular row or column should be marked. Consequently, the player has to use his logic thinking and memory to win and to reveal the hidden puzzle.



Originally this game is supposed to be played on the paper but its online-game version gives the player more possibilities. So why is it called "Everybody's Picross"? If the original game is rather complicated and suits only people with very developed logic skills, this variant online puzzle game has larger target audience. What happens is that you can set up two different modes of the game: arcade mode and the real one.



As stated in the tutorial, arcade mode is perhaps less realistic but much easier to play. The arcade mode of this free online game you start with the token and the computer gives you some hints of where the picture actually is located. But there is one minus: while choosing the arcade mode, you are penalized with time so you have to be faster. Speaking about a huge advantage of playing an arcade mode, even if you're not that good at Picross but if you are patient, you'll always be able to solve a puzzle through memory, trial and error. In case the player prefers the real mode he is not provided any token and is not penalized with the time. On the one hand it's better so the player doesn't have to hurry up but on the other hand you can go a long way through a wrong road if you're not careful. Remember that in real mode being cautious is your key to win.



In order to mark the square click on it using the mouse. To unmark it just click on it again. Although the game's concept seem to be clear still the Picross is considered to be one of the hardest puzzle games to play.

The nice detail is that you can also choose music for the game according to your tastes among the provided options. Have fun and enjoy the challenges of this free online puzzle game!
