Each block of pixels is listed by row and by column. You are to use these numbers to help you reveal the picture. The number hints are like clues in a crossword puzzle - hence the name Picross.

Battle Picross is different than similar types of picross games. There is a lower time limit in this game. However, you are allowed to use items that you collect to help reveal the puzzle. It is a more franctic game that causes you to think just a little faster than with other puzzle games.

Installation

BattlePicross.mb is the multi-Boot version intended to be used for link cables that allow games to be uploaded to the GBA without a flash cart.

Due to the fact that no cart is intended to be used with the multi-boot version, the cleared puzzles and items will not be saved between sessions.

To save your game progress, please run the regular version BattlePicross.gba on an emulator or with a flash cart on the GBA hardware.

You mainly control the chizzel tool on the puzzle surface. You use the chizzel to to reveal the puzzle.

To chizzel a part of the puzzle, position the tool accordingly, and then press the A button.

If you know that a certain tile is not part of the puzzle, it is wise to mark it with an "X" so that you don't forget this fact.

Marking "X"s on the puzzle is not required to win the puzzle. It is only there to help you remember which tiles are not part of the picture.
