Pictopix is a fun nonogram game with a lot of puzzles ranging from easy to hard difficulty. The thing I love most about this game is its intuitive UI, making it easy to solve the puzzles as is. I always need my hit of nonogram after a while and I can say that this game does it for me. This is one of the best nonogram games on Steam, definitely recommended!

Honestly the best picross game I've played. Very clean and polished, with an expanse of content.

The UI is terrible and has no accessibility whatsoever. It's too tiny and if you have a high resolution monitor prepare to suffer eyestrain or be forced to lower the resolution so much the game becomes blurry and ugly (but at least the UI will have the size it should've from the beginning). That being said, at least the puzzles are decent and the game is cheap. Some better QoL would've been great but for the asked price it's alright.

Very fun little picross with some challenge levels that reset every half hour, and an extensive Steam Workshop to draw from

Probably the best instance of Nonograms/Picross/what-have-you available on PC. If your interest is purely in playing Nonograms without any fluff or strings attached, this is your absolute best option. Huge level selection, level editor, and even some easter eggs to find. Absolutely wonderful game that accomplishes everything it sets out to do.
