PicrossDS is a port of the GameBoy version Mario's Picross, with a SNES successor that never came States-side. Picross is also known as Griddlers, Picto-crossword, CryptoPics. It is made with PAlib.
Installation

User guide
Picross is a puzzle based on a grid of black and white squares which form a picture. At the beginning the picture is hidden, leaving you with the task of reconstructing it from the clues(numbers on the side).
Lists of numbers representing the number of black squares are added to each row and column.
Each number represents a group of black squares so, for example, 3_2 means that on this row there is a group of 3 black squares to the left of a group of 2 black squares, with one or more white squares in between (There must be at least one white square between the groups, or the 3 and 2 would join up to become a 5).
The numbers are always in order, so 3_2 means 3 black squares to the left of 2 black squares, and 2_3 means 2 to the left of 3.
Fill in or cross out the tiles based on the clues given. When all the tiles have been correctly filled-in, you win.
