Our take on Piczle Lines DX+α
The bounce point arrives in the later puzzle packs, where grids grow to 128 by 128 and the one-color set raises the challenge further. Players comfortable with small, varied picture puzzles may stop there, especially if they do not want to work through increasingly large boards.
