Picross S8 Description
Picross S8 is the eighth main part of the series of puzzle games, based on the rules of the puzzle known as "painting with numbers". The game was developed by the Jupiter Corporation studio supervising the development of the series.
Game mechanics
While playing Picross S8, we paint the fields of diagrams in such a way as to obtain pixelated images. Around the board there are numbers, which tell us how many boxes in a given row or column should be painted with a certain color to get the desired effect.
In the production in question, 485 such puzzles are waiting to be solved. 300 were prepared for the Picross and Mega Picross modes, 150 were developed for the Clip Picross variant, 30 were created for the Color Picross module, and the remaining 5 are bonus puzzles.
Game modes
Picross S8 can be played solo or in local multiplayer mode for up to four people.
Technical aspects
The two-dimensional, minimalist graphics of the Picross S8 game do not deviate too much from what we are used to from previous parts of the series.
