A logic puzzle site and family of apps from a company that supplies puzzles to newspapers. Players solve picture logic puzzles such as Pic-a-Pix nonograms, Fill-a-Pix and Link-a-Pix, which reveal pixel-art pictures, and number puzzles like Sudoku, Kakuro, Hashi and Slitherlink. The site has free starter puzzles with tutorials and solving tips, over 110 new puzzles every Friday for members, printable puzzle books, and separate apps for iPhone, iPad and Android.
Our take: A good ad-free choice for older kids and teens who love Sudoku-style logic; young kids who want quick, colorful games may find it too dry.
