Jupiter Corporation*, a Japanese developer famous for ‘It’s a Wonderful World’ and the PICROSS series of games, have officially announced they are bringing the latest in the PICROSS series – PICROSSe3 – to their North America and European fans. PICROSS** is a cell based logic puzzle game in which a grid must be colored or left blank according to numbers at the side of the grids to reveal a hidden picture.
“You’ve never played a PICROSS platformer like this! You will become addicted to this and will enjoy over the holiday season”. said, Norichika Meguro, a Director of PICROSS series at Jupiter. “I would like to emphasize 2 points for this title. First, there is the regular PICROSS mode, off course, but in PICROSSe3 there is also the new MegaPicross. Granted a patent with Nintendo® in 2007, MegaPicross has big sized numbers, mega numbers and small size regular numbers as hints. The rules for those mega numbers are; (1) Mega numbers should be considered as a cluster. (2) Mega numbers should use 2 lines. (3) Mega numbers in the same row or line won’t touch the other clusters”.
“Second, there are 150 questions in this title including 30 MegaPicross. Now, PICROSS has more complex rules to enjoy, massively addictive questions. For this version, the players are able to modify the rules; if you don’t want to be penalized for a wrong cell decision, change the rules and you won’t”.
For fans and new comers alike, PICROSS e3 delivers a whole new world of challenges and fun for the holiday season and beyond.
