Build cute little towns by solving Picross / Nonogram type puzzles.



That's basically it, that's the concept.





As you fill puzzles, you fill in an area map before progressing to the next one.



Normally Picross puzzles reveal little pixel art images, this is an experiment to see if the basic puzzle mechanic is still fun when used in this manner.

What do you think? Is there something here worth exploring further?

Sometimes when I’m tired, I solve similar puzzles in https://www.griddlers.net/fi/home

Concept graphics look very nice. Perhaps multi-colored squares could be utilized instead of using only binary ones? Colors would affect the graphics in the final image: red for building, green for farm plot, blue for roads or something similar.

The visuals are very good, the gameplay seems to be a good fit for mobile games

Thanks for the kind words, makes me motivated to keep going!

Yeah me too I love winding down with a good Griddler / Picross / Nonogram puzzle as a way to relax. I like the simplicity of the binary approach but really I'd be happy to switch if that's what most players prefer. I'll see if I can get a bit more feedback on it and what the consensus is.
