DTOID:
I thought I knew exactly what to expect with Pokémon Picross. Picross, but with pictures of Pokémon. Sold. That's all I need. Give it to me now.
I even joked with our reviews director Chris that I could probably write this review without having played any of it. As it turns out, I couldn't; there's more to it than just that. At its core, it's still Picross, but there are a handful of tweaks and additions. It's mostly for the better, but some of the new mechanics could be a turnoff.
Alex DS. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "It’s the beginning of the end for the Nintendo 3DS. After Nintendo announced that they would be ending credit card support for the 3DS eShop, it’s clear that both of these systems will officially ride off into the sunset over the next year or so, at least on the digital side of things. This means that the countdown is on before many of the 3DS’s best games are lost forever."
With the release of Picross S on the Switch, it's a great time to jump into the puzzle game series! But what about the lore? It's true, the deep, complex narrative of the Picross games can be a bit difficult to sort out, so [Michibiku is] here to help with this guide to the timeline of Jupiter's long-running franchise.
Michibiku's Jenni Lada writes, "All the numbered blocks
methodically filled in;
Picross is the best."
