Nonogram: Legends

Nonogram: Legends is the grid logic puzzle also known as picross, hanjie or griddlers, built for phones in portrait mode. The numbers on the edges tell you how many cells in a row to fill in each row and column; fill the right cells and a picture appears in full color, among sakura petals. The story takes place in Kagemori, a kingdom of feudal Japan, where scribes, messengers and ink masters compete for the favor of a daimyo.

Every picture has a single solution and can be solved with line logic alone, with no guessing.

NEW IN VERSION 2.0
• 3D look: the board has depth, painted cells become ink blocks and the picture is revealed in full color.
• Bigger campaign: 16 levels in 4 chapters.
• Daily reward, with a coin calendar and a day streak.
• Daily challenge: the same puzzle for everyone, one a day.
• Saved games: close the app and pick up where you left off.
• 15 achievements to collect.
• If you already played, your progress, coins and stars are kept.

HOW IT PLAYS
• Two modes, Paint and Mark (X), each with its own big button.
• Drag your finger to paint or mark several cells at once: the stroke sticks to the row or column where you started.
• Undo and redo as much as you like.
• The row and column under your finger are highlighted.
• When a line is satisfied, its clues are crossed out.
• Hint: reveals one correct cell and costs coins. You start with 30.
• Check: marks the wrong cells. In the campaign it costs 5 coins; in Quick Play it is free.

CAMPAIGN IN KAGEMORI: 16 LEVELS
• The Scribe's Notebook: Hikaru teaches you to count cells and read the numbers.
• Yumi's Garden: among cherry trees and pines, the Honor rule kicks in (long strokes alternate between row and column).
• Kuroda's Towers: 12x12 boards and counted ink drops, where mistakes show up right away.
• The Daimyo's Hall: the watchful fox, the mask and, at the end, the boss Akane, who draws rules for the board and writes a brand-new rule halfway through.
• Earn 1 to 3 stars: 1 for solving, plus 1 for solving without a hint or check, plus 1 for finishing within the target time. There is no clock that ends your game.

44 PICTURES
• Five sizes: 5x5, 8x8, 10x10, 12x12 and 15x15.
• The 15x15 grid has zoom through the + and − buttons and a Move button to pan around the board.

QUICK PLAY AND GALLERY
