    Pictonico isn't just a Wario-free WarioWare on mobile; it's its own thing, with a fun selection of mini-games, a bright and snappy interface, and a relatively low price in the grand scheme of things. What's on offer here is a bit of silliness, something you can play with family and friends and get a laugh out of, even if it won't keep you coming back for the longest time. When people say Nintendo don’t do silly things anymore, you can point them directly to Pictonico.

    If you’re in need of a laugh, or you know your friends could do with one, this really is a gut-busting time. Nintendo so rarely gets experimental these days, and it’s fantastic to see the company hasn’t lost its touch.

    Pictonico! successfully turns your personal photos into a collection of fast-paced and genuinely funny microgames. While the concept is creative and often hilarious, the limited gameplay variety, reliance on touch controls, and lack of WarioWare's signature personality prevent it from reaching its full potential. Still, it's an entertaining experience for fans of quick party-style games looking for a few laughs.

    So Pictonico! is a perfectly decent little mobile game, but it's also very clear what it is: a fun idea, a quick laugh, a moment of image-based light-hearted entertainment, and then not much else. It's Nintendo at its weirdest, which I basically love, but it's not Nintendo at its most brilliant.
