Playing A Game Paint it Back PC

I fucking love picross! Nonograms! Shit is tight. And apparently I'm not the only one -- yes, we are a cult in very high esteem/notoriety/infamy.

Anyway. Paint it Back's simple aesthetic belies a stunningly rich amount of puzzle content. This ain't no bite-sized Picross e slapjob; there are, uh, 152 puzzles? That I know of? Plus a mode that throws out random puzzles, which, I don't know how many of those there are. Maybe an infinite amount? No, that's not mathematically possible. But probably a fucking lot.

And PiB doesn't shy away from complex puzzles, either. At about the halfway point, I'm already doing puzzles larger and more intricate than the endgame boards from Picross DS, my previous record-holder for most intimidating nonogram. There are some 40x30 boards I can see in the back. My brain is salivating all over itself for those.

These puzzles are at their best when they're sprawling and meticulous, forcing a patient approach to inductive logic and pattern recognition. And this game is picross at its best.

Progress: 79 puzzles complete, 151 medals
