by Finn May 26,2025

A decade ago, Picture Cross launched under the name World’s Biggest Picture Cross, with the ambition to be the ultimate nonogram app for mobile devices. Now, celebrating its 10th anniversary, Picture Cross boasts over 10,000 puzzles and introduces new modes and additional challenges to keep players engaged.

Play the Game if You Haven’t Already

Picture Cross offers an extensive collection of puzzles, ranging in grid sizes and difficulty levels from Easy to Expert. The gameplay remains true to the classic nonogram format, where players use number clues to fill in the correct squares, gradually revealing captivating pixel art images.

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

For those who love nostalgia, Mini Golf offers puzzles reminiscent of classic courses. Music enthusiasts can enjoy Rockstar, while Sci-Fi Celebration caters to fans of aliens and warp drives. Delve into mythical creatures with Mythical Monsters, relive classic stories with Fairy Tales, or unearth secrets with Archaeology.

For more grounded experiences, A Day At The Races and The Airport provide fresh scenes to uncover. Pirates! brings a wild shipload of puzzles to the table. And if you've conquered all these, the Encyclopedia of Picture Cross offers a remixed collection to keep the challenge alive.

Celebrate Picture Cross 10th Anniversary with New Routes and Modes

To mark its 10th anniversary, Picture Cross introduces a Map View to help you plan your puzzle-solving journey. A new Tournament Mode is now available for those who enjoy competitive puzzling. Additionally, a comprehensive playing guide offers strategies to enhance your solving skills. Both classic and multi-color puzzles are accessible in all modes.

Pete Williamson, CEO of the game's creators at puzzling.com, expressed his delight at the game reaching this milestone. He thanked the fans and hinted at more exciting updates coming in 2025 and beyond. You can explore Picture Cross on the Google Play Store.
