    If you're after a puzzler, I couldn't recommend Piczle Lines DX enough. Just the amount of addictiveness and content you want, and a lot of DLC content to come as well. You won't be getting bored of it anytime soon, and being able to come and go as you please is a big plus point. A welcome addition to the Switch library.

    Piczle Lines DX is rewarding, charming, and a great game to wind down with if you want your brain to settle or you can't sleep.

    Despite a few minor issues, Piczle Lines DX is an excellent puzzle game with a tonne of content and more free content on the way. It will keep you entertained for days, if not weeks. It might be playable on mobile, but the Switch version is cheaper overall, and the option of traditional controls makes the Switch version the definitive Piczle experience.

    Besides Tetris, puzzle games have had a hard time keeping my attention. As we’re finding out with the Switch, games I wouldn't have previously enjoyed are finding new audiences with its ability to play quick snippets of games anywhere you go. Piczle Lines DX is a perfect example of a game that works great in any situation and provides so much content that only the most puzzle-obsessed fans will be able to get through them all, maybe.

    Its docked controls may be clunky, but Piczle Lines DX’s mobile roots show it was always supposed to be controlled with a touchscreen. Play it in handheld mode (preferably listening to something else) and you’ll find an addictive game with loads of puzzles to keep you busy for hours.

It is a simple game where you draw coloured lines between numbered points and try to fit everything together until a pixel art image is created. It is an excellent time waster just don't expect it to do anything else.

    The story mode is short and the puzzle difficulty increases gradually letting you learn the game without any issues but the real depth is in the puzzle mode which has received several free expansions and offers hours of content at no extra cost.

    The pixel art is well done and, thanks to the scale (up to 128x128), more detailed than the likes of Picross S.    … Full Review »
