Nonogram Puzzle Game Marks 10 Years on Mobile

by Finn May 27,2025

A decade ago, Picture Cross burst onto the scene as World’s Biggest Picture Cross, heralding a new era for nonogram enthusiasts on mobile devices. Today, with a staggering collection of over 10,000 puzzles, Picture Cross marks its 10th anniversary by introducing exciting new modes and an array of fresh puzzles.

Play the Game if You Haven’t Already

Picture Cross offers an extensive variety of puzzles, catering to a wide spectrum of skill levels from Easy to Expert, and featuring diverse grid sizes. The gameplay remains true to the classic nonogram experience, where you use numerical clues to fill in the correct squares, gradually unveiling stunning pixel art images.

The puzzles you solve unlock entire themed packs and hidden poster scenes. With over 60 themed puzzle packs, the game ensures there's something for everyone. Dive into the adrenaline-pumping Motorsport pack for a hundred fast-paced puzzles, or explore the cosmos with Moonshot, a space-themed set of 100 challenges.

For a touch of nostalgia, try Mini Golf, or if you're a music aficionado, Rockstar awaits. Sci-Fi Celebration caters to fans of aliens and warp drives, while Mythical Monsters, Fairy Tales, and Archaeology offer mythical and historical adventures. For a more down-to-earth experience, A Day At The Races and The Airport present fresh scenes to uncover. The Pirates! pack offers a thrilling shipload of puzzles. And for those who've conquered it all, the Encyclopedia of Picture Cross provides a remixed collection to keep the challenge alive.

Celebrate Picture Cross 10th Anniversary with new Routes and Modes

To celebrate this milestone, Picture Cross introduces a Map View to help you plan your puzzle-solving journey. A new Tournament Mode is now live, perfect for competitive puzzlers. Alongside these, a comprehensive playing guide offers strategies for tackling both classic and multi-color puzzles across all modes.

Pete Williamson, CEO of puzzling.com, the creators of Picture Cross, expressed his gratitude to the fans on reaching this 10-year milestone. He teased that more updates are planned for 2025 and beyond. You can dive into the game by downloading it from the Google Play Store.
