Ten years ago, Picture Cross launched as World’s Biggest Picture Cross, with a bold mission: to become the premier nonogram experience on mobile. Today, the game stands stronger than ever, boasting over 10,000 handcrafted puzzles and celebrating a major milestone—its 10th anniversary. To mark the occasion, the developers have introduced exciting new game modes, fresh puzzle routes, and additional content to delight both longtime fans and newcomers.

If You Haven’t Played, Now’s the Time

Picture Cross offers a vast library of puzzles, featuring grid sizes and difficulty levels ranging from Easy to Expert. The core gameplay stays true to the beloved nonogram format—use numerical clues to determine which squares to fill and gradually uncover hidden pixel art images.

Each solved puzzle reveals part of a larger picture, often grouped into themed packs or hidden poster scenes. With more than 60 themed collections available, there's something for every interest. Speed through 100 adrenaline-fueled challenges in Motorsport, or launch into the cosmos with Moonshot, a space-themed set that’s out of this world.

Relive the charm of the greens in Mini Golf, rock out with Rockstar, or explore futuristic frontiers in Sci-Fi Celebration. Dive into mythical realms with Mythical Monsters and Fairy Tales, or unearth ancient secrets in the Archaeology pack. For more everyday adventures, uncover scenes in A Day At The Races or The Airport—each offering a unique visual story.

And if you’ve mastered the full catalog, the Encyclopedia of Picture Cross delivers reimagined puzzles for an extra challenge, ensuring the fun never runs out.

Celebrate the 10th Anniversary with New Features

To enhance the journey, Picture Cross now features a Map View, letting players chart their progress and choose their preferred puzzle route. A new Tournament Mode has also launched, offering competitive players a chance to test their skills against others.

Every mode includes both classic black-and-white and multi-colour puzzles, supported by an in-game playing guide filled with solving strategies to help you improve. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned pro, the tools and variety are there to keep you engaged.

Pete Williamson, CEO of puzzling.com, expressed his gratitude to the game’s loyal community, thanking players for a decade of support. He also hinted at upcoming updates rolling out in 2025 and beyond, promising even more content and innovations on the horizon.
