Picross DS

"Picross DS is a high-quality collection of logic puzzles at a terrific bargain price."

"It's still extremely early to tell just how deep Picross can get, but from our early playthrough with the final version we can tell you Nintendo's latest Touch Generations game is the real deal, and it won't be leaving our system for quite some time. There are tons of ways to play, a full creation mode, random online battles, friend support for Picross battle and puzzle exchange, game sharing, six-player download play, daily Picross, and a slew of pre-loaded puzzles to fill in the gaps. That's a ton of puzzle goodness to get you through the summertime blues."

"The game may not look like much on the surface, but once you delve into a handful of Picross puzzles you might find it hard to stop playing. Picross DS is a brilliant, mature-focused Nintendo DS product that's incredibly addictive with near endless gameplay. If you missed out on the original Game Boy design Nintendo's got you covered: those puzzles can be downloaded off of the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection servers for free. This is a fantastic alternative to the Sudoku design, and as fun as that number puzzle is, Picross DS trounces it."

"Picross DS isn't really a traditional video game. Despite this, if you like puzzle games, Picross DS is one of the best non-games you can pick up. It probably won’t appeal to younger kids or action junkies, but fans of puzzle games can’t afford to miss this."
