Picross S8

If you’re looking for a few hundred more puzzles to add to the collection of what must be over a thousand by now, then Picross S8 is the game for you. If a good entry point is what you're after, Picross S8 is a decent spot, but we’d recommend you at least watch the first two seasons of the anime to get a somewhat decent grasp of the premise. Anyway, this game radiates so much power that it made the preceding seven games (or ten, if you count the spin-offs) better through updates that added universal touch support and four-player multiplayer. So go buy it. Now.

Both newcomers and long-time veterans will be able to find enjoyment when playing Picross S8. With plenty of tutorials and support available, it is easy to learn the ropes, and for anyone already in the know of the ancient art of Picross, these can be skipped or disabled. Picross S8 is the perfect title for some relaxing downtime!

The iconic series adds well-implemented multiplayer to the mix, clearly making itself king once more

Once again, Picross S8 is an excellent example of a logic puzzle. Its main novelty is the co-op mode, but, at least right now, it doesn't feel like a major new feature for the fans of the genre, as solving these [mental] challenges is usually a lonesome, reflective and intimist experience. Even so, the elegant design, simple Portuguese tutorials, quality of life resources and rich content make it a phenomenal experience and consistent [in quality] with its predecessors.
