“I wish there was a 'neutral' option because this is a really neat premise and I think it has the sauce, but its balance is absolutely all over the place. The puzzle generation seems heavily weighted to keep from giving you 'dead giveaway'…”

“I genuinely don’t have the heart to downvote this one because it’s a wildly creative mashup of nonograms/picross and roguelite dungeon crawling in a gritty dark fantasy world. One of which I love the idea, but perhaps not the execution…”

“Oh, yes. First of all, disclaimer; I've been playtesting this on and off since the earliest released versions. I didn't get the retail version for free, I did buy it. Take that as you will. I love a good picross game, and there's nothing…”

“(Review as of patch 1.0.3) CiniCross is a really interesting game because it enforces a very different approach to solving Nonograms: probabilistic solving. More specifically, in this game you have to manage time and a health pool as two…”
