    If you're happy to keep paying for very similar Picross games, you'll get more than your money's worth out of this. [Aug 2014, p.87]

    Picross e4 is an episode that summarizes the work made with previous entries without any kind of surprise or innovation.

    It doesn’t have too many additions, but ti brings the best of the series. If you like the Picross puzzles, then you already know if this game is for you.

    Picross e4 offers very little new from its predecessors.

    We cannot really say this is an evolution. The game continues with the same minimalist design and the game modes are essentially recoveries from previous editions.

    It's always good to have more puzzles and E4 delivers on that front, but leveling difficulty by the bottom will disappoint the veterans, along with the return of the Micross mode. A positive mention, though, for Picross' equivalent of a fidelity program and its rewards on the 3DS.

    If you enjoy a light puzzler this collection is for you, but it won’t change your mind about the series if you’ve already decided it’s not your thing.

    This is just another update, including more than 100 new puzzles, but it's totally worth it if you're in love with the formula. And you'll probably be pleased that Mega Picross and Micross are featured.

    Best one in the series so far. More puzzles, including some that unlock if you played previous games, and the same phenomenal design. There isBest one in the series so far.
