Oh yes, give me a myriad of Albedo puzzles pls! :D
I hope it gets localized, if only because I don't want to use noney on my Japanese eshop account. That's for demo downloads only.

I can't be the only one that thought this was a crossover with that weird Pikmin-like Overlord game from a decade ago?
Picross 3DX Professor Layton, exploring the world and solving Picross puzzles to solve the mystery and find clues.

1 new game, "Picross Lord of the Nazarick" is the title, it's an Overlord-themed picross game.
They're really on top of the game. Although the Konami Picross was extremely well done too (just one guy!)
OP

not yet, but the last licensed one was localized so it's likely that this one will as well.
Don't bother. S2 and S3 are purely 'Ainz strong, gruesomely murdering humans' without any meaningful plot development. I loved S1 and defended S2, but S3 was just dumb in how oddly sociopathic it was.

I'm going to buy every version of Picross they make. A Castlevania branded one would be soooo good.

it would be great but i think it's not very likely since konami has their own picross game now.
Konami's Pixel Puzzle Collection was my first ever exposure to Picross. It has shittons of puzzles (which I'm nearing completion of) and it was free (with ads). Other than what seems to be higher production values, why should I be paying this much for what seems to be the exact same gameplay? Am I missing something?
OP
OP
no reason, basically. it's the same exact game. it's just more puzzles with [imo] the best UI of any picross game.
edit: i guess the mega mode is something that i haven't seen in other picross games. it's a really cool take on picross and adds a lot of challenge to the puzzles.
i doubt they have the budget to do VA.
Today I learned that I missed Kemono Friends Picross. Guess I'll be picking up two Picross games.
Overlord completely lost me early on in season 1, when an ally to the main character got brutally murdered, her eyes gouged out and all, and the main character not being able to muster any kind of emotion. Him losing empathy is a plot point, but not one I care for.
That said, chibi Overlord works in the humorous Isekai Quartet show.

Color picross, better UI, better controls.
Also, more puzzles.

If you own a phone, there's literally hundreds of free Picross games. Many are better than the ones Jupiter keeps low-efforting.
never played a picross but love Overlord so I'm in.
Really hope the golbin army is in this, and Lamp, def need lamps
if S4 is Goat tier CGI, idk if I can stomach it...

i just remembered something! i really hope there's some acknowledgement here if you do a puzzle with no assists. normal S games have that for every puzzle as well as every mode if you do all puzzles in that mode with no assist, but [as silly as it sounds] i didn't buy the kemono friends picross game because it didn't have that.
It's still pretty funny that Nintendo own the "Picross" name and other companies buy a licence to develop those games like we're talking about Tetris.
OP
OP
other companies are free to develop picross games without paying nintendo, they just can't call it picross. picross is a made-up name anyway, the original name is nonogram.
Such a bizarre oversight on that one. It's inexplicable why they omitted it.
EDIT: Oh, sweet! Worldwide simultaneous release, wooo! Totally missed the thread title edit and skipped over the earlier posts confirming it. I guess we can expect this trend to continue with all Picross games moving forward. (Let's just forget about Picross e9 though.)

I have zero familiarity with the source material it's based on but I'm always in day one for a Jupiter made Picross game
Oh, slay, localization is great news! I'll have to burn through a couple of volumes of the LN before next week so I'm not lost on story stuff.
Is it the same with Tetris? You can make a Tetris game without the licence, you just have to name it "Falling Puzzle" or something like that?
OP
OP
not really. the creator of tetris came up with its concept and mechanics and trademarked them along with the name, whereas nonograms as a concept are free game and belong to no one in particular. what nintendo has done is just put a specific name on the nonograms names they've published, and since those games have been so popular their brand has become synonymous with the concept.
