A small Minesweeper variant. Nothing much to say except it's nice. A good puzzle game if you don't mind minimalist appearances. 😊 If you enjoyed this review, please check out my curator page to find more : [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45639970-Ele%2527s-Little-Recommendation-Corner/]Ele's Little Recommendation Corner !

SquareCells is a compact block deletion puzzle game in the vein of picross. You're given information on the number of blocks in rows and columns, as well as other guidelines such as the number of contiguous blocks in an area. It is fun and the music is nice.

Another nice puzzle game from the creator of the Hexcells games. The mechanics here are based on nonograms but the game uses a more complex hint system to solve the puzzles. It is more challenging than normal nonograms and based on solving these puzzles flawlessly, not on uncovering images like many nonogram games do ( e.g. like the nice Pictopix here on Steam.). Sometimes a puzzle is only solvable by looking at the "still to remove" counter to discard other remaining possible solution. You need various ideas to solve all the puzzles and to identify fields that are either empty or occupied.

Playtime: 8.9 hrs A pretty straight forward puzzle game just like the other ones made by the dev. Very relaxing and not too hard so overall fun game.

This game was not what I was expecting it to be (I hoped it would be more nonogramy), but it is still a pretty nice and enjoyable puzzle game.
