PicrossST: AC 2008 Edition

PSTAC2k8E is a special tournament edition of PicrossST released on the Atari Convention 2008 in France.

Like the ”real” PicrossST, it is a ”nonogramme” puzzle where a grid must be filled according to numbers placed on its sides. However, the AC 2008 edition is a test of endurance and fast thinking. All puzzles are random-generated so that it is not possible to solve the puzzle by trying to see a picture in it. Furthermore, it is very unforgiving, with a fast countdown. Time is added to the countdown when the player marks a filled cell in the grid correctly. Controversely, erroneously filling a cell results in a big deduction on the time available. The aim is to get as high a score as possible, rather than just playing for leisure.
