I mean it's more Picross... what do you want?

I no longer see the world in colour. There is only black and white squares...

You know what to expect from the Picross S series by now. It's good. The Clip Picross story was cute and taught me a little bit about the story referenced. Only negative is that the music was... honestly pretty bad, but I play this on mute in bed anyway.

So going by Simpsons season logic, this will be the last good game from this series and it will start falling apart in Picross S9. I'm wondering how they fuck it up. NFT Puzzles? Train Sim World-esque DLC? Useless annoying characters who try to strike up conversation while you're playing? Perhaps they'll come up with a way to have the Switch punch you in the groin for every three minutes you take.

Personally I'm hoping they come out with another villainous Pokemon one that asks you for your social security number and home address to send hired goons to beat the shit out of you for every second wasted, along with all the money it vacuums out of your bank account for every two puzzles you want to do.

A wonderful time to be both a picross and pokemon fan.
