People speedrun installing Linux. Is that a video game?
Anything can be a game if you want but your game should pause the timer during loading screens or people running NVMe will have an unfair advantage over those with HDDs.
I love Picross! It’s so relaxing, but I haven’t played in a while due to my 3DS power button being broken.
Surely the consolerepair sub has migrated here! Lol.
If you want to dig deep into picross, check out Griddlers
Holy hell those are gigantic
I love nonogram type games. Nonogram Katana on Android has a lot of really cool user created puzzles.
I second Nonogram Katana! You can also play in the browser, but there’s seriously soooo many puzzles to do.
And if that isn’t enough of a game for some people, there’s a whole guild system of resources and upgrades. Not to mention a dungeon mini-RPG they added in the last year
Not that Picross isn’t a game, but there are speedruns of Microsoft Excel. I’m not convinced something having a speedrun proves it’s status as a game.
But excel is a game.
Picross 2 (1996; Game Boy) with the English translation patch is the tits.
Yes, currently playing Mario Picross on my Miyoo Mini and I have a blast
I’m still picking my way through the DS game, it feels like super chill Minesweeper 😁 Knowing there’s SO MANY MORE Picross games pleases me for when I eventually finish this one. Love that there’s translation patches for all the Japan-only entries now as well. Will end up throwing some of them on the trust Retroid Pocket 3!
Picross is my life whenever a new one comes out on the switch. Hope they bring back the 3D picross at some point, those were a neat change, and I think the current gen of games have kinda stagnated :(
Picross 3d round 2 is legit one of my favorite games of all time. It’s so insanely good it is criminal they haven’t made another 3d one
Nonograms that take color into account (like Pic-a-Pix Deluxe) make a great game even better imho.

I thought it was something that Only existed on game boy…
I love it and if a Nes game wasn’t a game… what is it?
I miss Pokémon Picross. That game was SO funnnn
You can still sideload it on a hacked 3DS, with a program you can have unlimited lives
I still have my 3DS XL in a closet which should have it installed. I’d love to play it on a different system though, I should look into some emulation options!
I was really sad the day I completed the last Picross S game on Switch. I had run out. I was playing in bed to unwind my brain at the end of the day. Found a clown on Steam that’s decent, but my Steam Deck is too big to play lying down in bed comfortably. 😥
I found Picross Katana on Android, it’s really great
I love love love picross. I have played so much of it over random various games and browser websites lmao

vimspeedrunnerAh, gatekeepers. So easy to anger.
