Gizmos: Spooky Adventures

An enjoyable nonogram game that took me about 25hrs to complete. Should be suitable for most players, although it's possible that the largest levels may be difficult for young players or those with visual difficulties or difficulty concentrating. - Puzzles start off as 10x10 and increase in size each chapter, ending with 30x30 size puzzles. - 6 chapters, with 20 levels/puzzles chapter. - There is a story, although I wasn't really able to follow it very well. - Occasional jigsaw puzzle is thrown in at the start of certain levels. I found this a bit irritating/difficult due to visibility issues, but they're very small and there's no time limit. Jigsaw puzzle image becomes the new background. - Hints are available, and fill in a few random cells for you. - The game is fairly forgiving. You can make multiple mistakes before you have to restart the level. - When you hover over a square the clues for that line & row are lit up slightly, but I wish it had been more noticeable (especially on the largest puzzles). - Autofill is optional. There are also other settings you can change. - Achievements are much more relaxed than some other games in this series. I found the most difficult achiev…

Just a fun game if you like puzzles. It's like if sudoku and minesweeper had a baby!

starts easy, finishes fiendish

Some points about this game, from most positive to most negative (#1 rates the recommend on its own, while #10 almost ruins that recommendation.) +++1. A LOT of picross/nonogram/griddlers in one package. If you're into them, this supplies many hours' worth of enjoyment. ++2. The price for the package is very reasonable. +3. Most of the nonograms (with one exception, to my experience) can be solved logically, without guesswork. +4. There's even a simple puzzle game from time to time. Skippable and not achievement based if you're not into it. 5. While it does give a lot of hours, mine might be inflated, as I have a bad habit of wandering away from the computer. 6. With a few exceptions, most of the nonograms only vaguely look like the image they're trying to replicate. Most nonograms have that issue, though. -7. Not that I'm very good at these, but the time achievements seem like something that while not impossible, would be accomplished by someone who is so reflexive to the game that I wouldn't see how they would enjoy it. -8. "Gizmos: Spooky Adventures" has such terrifying subjects as Pinocchio and Hansel & Gretel. Maybe the title was slapped on? --9. "ALL HAIL THE GIZMOS", and all…

I just love nonograms, man. I don't know why. I'm not even that good at math. But here I am, spending my free time putting together these puzzles. I skipped through all of the dialogue because I don't like the voice acting, so I have no idea what the story of this was. That being said, I thoroughly enjoyed this game and put 50 hours into it. If you like nonograms, try this one. Turn on easy mode and just enjoy yourself.

Fantastic gridders game! Lots of options if you prefer a more casual version e.g. to play in black and white and/or without being timed or having to start again due to mis-clicks. Great theme and graphics. Kept me busy for hours and I will play again as there is lots of replay value. I bought this game as part of a 4 game bundle but will now seek out more by this developer.
