Mychildrensstore.com Product Description |
Picross 3D is the single player sequel to the popular Picross DS puzzle game. The original game was a number-based grid puzzle that challenged players to reveal a hidden picture. Picross 3D ratchets up the challenge, moving the action into three dimensions. Blending the logical challenge of a sudoku puzzle with the excitement of discovering hidden images, Picross 3D is a must-have for any puzzle fan on the DS. Additional features include multiple categories of puzzle challenges and wireless functionality that allows puzzles to be shared both via the Internet and over a local Nintendo Wi-Fi connection. Gameplay
Picross 3D is a single player puzzle game in which players must reveal a 3D image hidden inside a larger rectangular block composed of smaller squares. To do this players utilize a variety of numerical clues placed upon the rows and columns of the larger rectangular form. Where they exist these clues indicate the number and possible grouping of blocks within that row or column. Where these are absent, the player must use logic and what the clues related to surrounding areas indicate to determine where blocks should be removed or left in place. Use logic to unlock images.
View larger. | To remove blocks players use the DS stylus via the game's mallet functionality. In standard play mode the game will give gentle limited warnings if blocks are incorrectly removed. Players can also use paint brush functionality to indicate which blocks they believe are part of the final 3D image. For success in exposing images players' actions are rewarded with a puzzle-solving rating, which aid in the unlocking of additional puzzles, and in-game animations that become part of the game background. The game also features an assortment of additional activities, including timed and no-miss challenges, the ability to create your own puzzles and share them with the greater Picross 3D community via the Nintendo DS' wireless Wi-Fi capabilities and even DS download functionality that allows players to share some puzzles with other DS owners locally without the need for additional game cards. Key Game Features - Players start with a solid block of cubes marked with numbers. Each block contains a hidden object. Each number represents the number of blocks in that row that are part of the hidden object. If a row of six blocks is marked with the number five, one of those blocks must be eliminated. But which one? Players must deduce the answer based on the number clues marked on adjacent rows and columns.
- Once all the appropriate blocks have been chipped away, a fun object will be revealed. There are more than 350 unique puzzles to solve and objects to discover in the game.
- Picross 3D lets players create their own customized puzzles. Players can either share their creations with other Picross 3D players via a local wireless connection or use their broadband Internet connection and Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection to submit their puzzles into a monthly themed puzzle challenge. Winners will have their puzzles featured in free weekly downloads available to all Picross 3D players for a limited time after the game is launched.
- Additional brain teasing puzzles will be made available throughout the year in themed puzzle packs via the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.
- If multiple people want to play Picross 3D, game owners can also send a sample puzzle to others via DS Download Play without the need of a second game card.

Extremely Addicting |
I am always looking for good DS games that are fun to play and are good exercise for your brain. I believe this game hits both of those points incredibly well.
This game is so fun because it is such a simple concept and so easy to play. It starts out really slow and easy so you can really get the hang of it. Then it steadily becomes more and more challenging. It's so much fun to knock out blocks and uncover the mystery shape.
I am not sure if this would be the most exciting game for kids, but if you are a little older(I am 26) and like to pass some time playing brain games. This game is the best. It really makes you think.
I highly recommend this game if you like such titles as Professor Layton, Puzzler world, and the Zelda games. I say that because those are some of my favorites and I really like this game.
I hope this review was helpful. I am not a critic, but that is what I thought. Def worth the money. |

good puzzle game |

I am 59 and this is a good game to keep the mind working but in a fun way. I simply cannot go one nite without attempting a puzzle. |

Now for poor eyesite |
Although this is a really good game, it has one big drawback. I couldn't see it. In order to view the different squares, I had to zoom in. When zooming in, you lose the square count. So you have to zoom back out to find out how many squares are to be filled in or cut out.
This is a game that really makes you think logically and its totally addicting. I would spend hours perfecting my time. I would reccomend it for the adults who need to stretch their brains abit. |
