To all people saying there is some guessing involved. It is not true - in all levels there is exactly one solution and there is always a way to deduce it. It is just that later on, the deductions need to be more complex and involve considering the consequences of a few clues combined in order to make a correct move. Moreover even in later stages there are often more clues then are strictly necessary, so there is more then one way to get to the solution as well.

got through 88 levels, closed the game to go to work, came back and none of the stages i completed saved as completed.

Still not loading here, no problems on the Armor Games site.
Would welcome a feedback on the criteria matched so far (like dimming).

There should be a quick reminder of what does arrow, crown and heart do. I got back to the game after few days and it was hard to get back into it. Very nice game still, 5/5 !

New app update, new issues :P (https://imgur.com/a/MkNjr). Also, the app defaults to landscape whenever i open it and it doesn't respond to the phone's orientation. Normally, i wouldn't mind this too much, but the controls are all the way on the right side of the screen and i'm left-handed. :/

The game loads then goes to a white screen. I see the Pixoji loading screen fine, but when it fills... I get a white screen with a black rectangle in the top left.
EDIT: Right clicking the game and opening just the frame in a new window allows me to play the game just fine. I don't know why is breaks in Kong's window.

I only have 81 levels available to me, anywhere else I check tells me I need to get the free app... sorta makes it impossible to complete 150.

@jamezspr: There is only one cell in level 58 that is guesswork, (it's in a trivial region, so don't worry about it) and the rest can be deduced. The important thing for this level is that there are many regions where there are ONLY 2 possibly correct configurations, and you need to extrapolate from those effect each binary configuration would have on the surrounding cells to get the right choice.

If you are looking for some help, the author of this blog (http://winnieguide.blogspot.ca/2018/01/pixoji.html) did a wonderful job documenting all of the accessible regular levels, relaxing challenge and a few of the medium/no smiley levels. This will get you to 149/150 complete and then you need to do one more yourself! -- Just want to say THANK YOU to the author if they see this comment. I appreciate the help!

In challenge mode, after completing some levels, when the game present a new clue tutorial, it has switched to normal mode. In this case, reselect challenge mode from menu.

Hard badge counter can be stuck because the game have a bug with challenge levels: it sometimes switch to normal levels. You just have to go back to menu to select challenge levels and continue.

Anyone got any tips for level 58? I'm pretty sure it doesn't require guesswork, so I'm assuming that there's a leap of deductive reasoning that I'm missing :D

@opltw09it09w - the two in the upper left will let you grey out a square. Even without that, you can do a bit more - https://i.imgur.com/CnXhlRT.png

No guesses are needed? Really?
Please show me next logical/mathematical step (without guessing):

Also I need days for hard badge? No thank you.
2/5 because mistake system was removed.

Meh. My game bugged out and wouldn't load the 1-30 puzzle pages for the challenge puzzles, resulting in only 147 accessible puzzles (i.e. not enough for the hard badge). So I had to reload... once I did, all of my progress was wiped out.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
For everyone who's wondering, you get the hard badge by playing any level; so finish the normal levels and then move on to the challenge levels till you have all 150. You do NOT need to get the app to get the badge. If your badge is stuck at a number, it's most likely an issue with the site, not the actual game. Just send a missing achievement report once you're done

I read through the instructions, but I'm unclear on how the app communicates with Kongregate for my badges. Morse code? Smoke signals?

Normally, puzzles games of this type give a paltry 20-some levels. The amount of content in this game is incredible. Furthermore, the puzzles are not trivial - they require some cleverness and careful deduction. Well done! 5 stars!

@JohnnyBravo19 It is correct; there are only 8 squares in the line indicated by that marker. For that matter, the board is only 8 squares tall. https://i.gyazo.com/2f570bae89bbd2ba1932e427ef375d85.png

Level 13 is wrong. The 8 in the middle on the top should be a nine. I needed a picture to solve: https://zblip.itch.io/pixoji/devlog/10734/pixoji

I have finally figured out what I find so counterintuitive and annoying about the smileys. It is the fact that they count adjacents as all pixels around them, including diagonals, but for the happy pixels they are measuring adjacents exclude diagonals. Does this bother anyone else? I feel it should be the same for both - either they should only look at the four bordering squares, or should only count squares in the middle of a 3x3 block...

Hard badge progress bar not tracking properly. Mine stopped counting at 26, though I'm up to 50 in the game. Have refreshed multiple times and reloaded at different times of day; account indicates it is connected okay. Since I see a similar comment, this doesn't seem to be isolated. Please fix. I'm not doing 150 levels if I only have to re-do almost all of them after the badge is fixed.

@ZBlip, you might want to tell the player in Level 11 (the introduction of side hints) that the absence of a number along the side or in a square does not mean that it is 0. Introducing three new mechanics in a single level confuses people easily, especially if two of those are unannounced. (contrary to all other mechanics so far)

I can't complete 150 levels? I beat the 81 normal levels and started doing challenge levels so I don't have to mess with the app, but the achievement tracker isn't counting further than 81 no matter how many challenge levels I beat. That's annoying as hell.

Pretty sure level 38 has a mistake...
Please see comment #6 here:

I'd post that here but it goes over the max comment length.

Can lvl 47 even be completed without guessing? I've been at it for a while now and even restarting gets me to the same spot, so i don't think i'm missing something.

Excellent game! So far really enjoying it! Note: Once you finish 81, you may need to restart the game in order for the challenge mode ones to load. They were showing blank for me once I finished the main game, but were back on refresh.

Any chance for an insane badge for ultra completionists? I felt myself matching Sarah K's sentiments during the 'hard' badge.. but now I keep coming back to the levels I couldn't get, whittling them down one by one! Such an addictive game, thank you!

i don't see a reason why the auto save isn't turned on by default. i had to restart my progress just to get the hard badge.

Gave up at level 11, no hints and the nanogram doesn't look like anything at all :< I feel its too hard for just after the tutorial and I'm pretty good at minesweeper... No chance of adding solutions/hints?
