Love this series. I've played nonogram games on other platforms, but nothing comes close to the level of quality Jupiter puts out.
Hope they do end up making more collaborations!
- Yeah, love the Picross games. Jupiter games are really polished.
  For some reason I didn't know about Picross X, going to give it a try.
  
  Yeah I'd also never heard of that one. I'm not a big fan of the really small puzzles though. I've got enough Picross to last years from the mainline series anyway :D

Waiting the day Jupiter makes also a Ken Ken game
- Never heard of KenKen, just looked it up and played couple of games. It feels fun. I won't mind if Jupiter starts making some of these other puzzle games too.
  
  I’ve always enjoyed Ken Ken a lot more than Sudokus, kudos for trying something new!

This is cool stuff - glad to know they're thinking about what to do with the 3DS ones as well, fingers crossed for a rerelease! I had a big sweep of the 3DS/Wii U eShops before they closed to just pick up anything I wanted before they went, but I completely forgot about the Picross e games.
