My controls don't work very well, I'm stuck with a slight drift to the right (with no keys stuck down). Impossible to play this way as I can't stay on the lift long enough to find the way off at the top. I'm sure this is an isolated incident, but after the super long loading time (much longer than any other game) I'm not too keen to try reloading just yet. I'll save rating it for later.
Chris, the harder computers rely on more skill than luck. The reckless CPU will pretty much just keep rolling, so it looks like they win more. But it actually zilches a lot more than the harder opponents, because it doesn't know when to bank. I suggest anyone that doesn't know how to play this game start out against Cautious instead of Reckless, especially if you're inclined to be cautious yourself.
Sometimes a piece will be completely seperate from the remaining entangled blocks but it won't disappear, and I pull it so far it goes off the edge of the screen XD Haven't had this impair my ability to solve the puzzles, but then I couldn't solve that many of them anyway :P
The kill all people button is the SAVE and RELOAD button. Sure, you won't get souls for that. But the other alternative is to sell your life upgrades, which will impact the next lot of people
This game has also been around as a separate game (not inspired by picross) for ages. What is with you people that have played no pen and paper puzzle games except picross?
NinjaNo1, that's because in a lot of cases people will say that even though it is only vaguely like the game in question. If it was really that similar, you'd report it to the person who made the original game, not complain in the comments or harass this game's developer. I think it is kinda like cannon fodder, not the PC game, but the mac game from many years ago.
