Playing... Picross S5?!
Not exactly the kind of game people would expect me to be playing given my posting history, but I do enjoy those games and often use them as a palate cleanser when a need a break from my usual RPGs/VNs.
Current status: Picross 150/150, Mega Picross 140/150, Color Picross: 10/30, Clip Picross: 0/150, Extra: 0/5.
I won't necessarily wait until I finish this one before starting another game, in particular because I have an extended 4-day holiday which is helping me relax and get my head back in a good state for gaming, but I'll tell you how things went next week.
Did you just did all those puzzles in a week? I am always playing a Picross games, by which I mean I start the next one as soon as I finish one, but I play a puzzle here and a puzzle there, taking many months to finish one game. I think I started soon after Picross S released, and I am still at Picross S4. There are so constant for me, I don't even mention them in my Currently Playing.
Also, how long does it take you to finish a whole Picross game? Number of hours taking me to finish these games is embarrassingly high.
No, I do same you do and always have one Picross game "unfinished" and go through it slowly. This week however I was not in the mood for playing other stuff so I did a huge batch of puzzles, I think it was close to 100.
The games show a clock with the total time once you finish all puzzles, I just checked and it took me 25-30h to complete each of them. I've finished S1-S4 and also the Genesis/Master System one.
Wow, 100 puzzles are a lot.
My crrent status: Picross 117/150, Mega Picross 115/150, Color Picross: 0/30, Clip Picross: 113/150, Extra: 0/5.
I used to finish one mode before moving to next, but changed it up a bit this time. I do a page or sometimes just a row of Picross then move to Mega Picross, and when I am caught up move back to Picross. Enjoying it a lot more like this.
As for Clip Picross, I am doing them as soon as they come up.
I've only finished S1-S3, and since I deleted them, can't check their time, but as per my Switch profile, I am already over 30 hours for S4.
