Addicting!

For people who love soduko and kakuro, this is the next new addiction!


Truly challenging!

I am addicted to all Conceptis puzzle apps, and this is one of their best. Endless puzzle packs of all levels and extremely easy to use. Thank you for challenging my brain!


An enjoyable puzzle game

Conceptis Puzzles does it again! A top notch logic puzzle app that will provide hours of entertainment and keep your brain from going to mush.


Difficult but satisfying

The puzzles can be quite difficult, and there's no function to suggest a deduction that can be made when you're stuck, as there is in some other logic games. Nonetheless, the puzzles are well done and the interface is great. Add a good "show me a deduction" feature and it would get five stars.


Great game and suggestion.

Like others I stumbled on this game (through Games mag) and had to find it as an App. Now I am addicted. It's a great way to wake up your brain int the morning. My only suggestion to Conceptis is visual. If you could make "skins" so that players could choose a different look/color scheme just to keep things interesting and personalized, that would be cool. Maybe by building the game where you achieve levels (and can buy skins) is the way to go. Great game otherwise!


Good app; very expensive, though

Buyer beware: you could end up spending thousands of dollars on Conceptis applications. Read on for details. This review includes the eight applications published on the iOS app store by Conceptis (Nurikabe, Tic-Tac-Logic, Link-a-Pix, Pic-a-Pix, Hashi, Sudoku, Slitherlink, and Fill-a-Pix). First off, their applications are well built and include many fun puzzles. I especially enjoy the weekly free puzzles, though it is a little irritating that they go away after four weeks and are not saved. However, the biggest problem—and I've noticed this mentioned in some reviews for these applications—is the high cost of puzzles. They are well done and fun, but when the costs are summed, they are rather high. There are 31,380 puzzles total (as of today) across the eight applications, ranging from very simple to rather complex, which would cost you a total of $3511 (not including tax). This is on par with the cost of licenses for professional-level applications. I think it's quite disingenuous of Conceptis to charge so much for the puzzles. When averaged (across all 8 applications for the entire range of puzzles), they total just over 15 cents/puzzle. That may not sound like much, but it can add up quickly. To contrast this, LogicPicColor, an iOS app like Pic-a-pix, has 16,778 total puzzles which cost a total of $30 (plus tax), averaging at a third of a cent per puzzle, about 50 times less than those from Conceptis. Now, LogicPicColor has some shortcomings and is not nearly as well done as the apps from Conceptis. Nonetheless, I don't believe Conceptis's apps and puzzles are worth that much of a premium, and will therefore be satisfied to look elsewhere. Perhaps someday they'll offer sales or discounts for puzzle bundles—ever since the apps were released, I've hoped for this, to no avail.

Best Nurikabe app

I've tried them all; nothing else comes close, especially with the huge volume of add-on puzzles available (albeit at a price).

I enjoy all conceptis puzzles. Packs are priced similar to puzzle books at stores and give weeks of solving enjoyment. Get a free puzzle weekly but always easy introductory type...good puzzle game
