GAAAH so hard... *goes back to play again anyway for the umpteenth day in a row*

[A Black Falcon]

I would just like to say that yes, I'm still hopelessly addicted to this game, and am still playing it on a daily basis; it's the only game I've been playing constantly so far this year. Picross 3D is hard, and sometimes unfair, but between memorization and skill, I'm working my way through it... and overall I've come to absolutely love the game. As before I think I do like this 3d version more than regular 2d Picross, though, so I'm not looking forward to finishing this -- yes, you can download more puzzles from the internet, or I could make some myself (yes, the game has a puzzle creator, and online level sharing!), but that's not a full replacement for a new game... and as of yet, there isn't another 3d Picross game, atl east not from Nintendo. It's sad. :(

Anyway, now I'm working my way through set 9 of Hard mode. The game has three main difficulties, Easy, Medium and Hard, each broken up into 10 sets of 12 puzzles (10 standard, plus two you unlock by getting the required number of no-miss puzzle completions in that set of puzzles). There are also several special puzzle sets along the way, for maybe 14-15 sets of puzzles per difficulty. And yeah, I'm nearing the end now, only a few dozen puzzles left... but yeah, they've gotten HARD! This is definitely a tough game now, even more so than before. My skills have improved over time -- this game does a good job of gradually increasing in difficulty as the players' skill improves -- but the game's gotten harder again... and yes, when I fail a puzzle repeatedly, it's frustrating. But yes, I keep coming back. :)
