Play Mario no Super Picross Online

Mario no Super Picross is that one SNES game you probably missed back in the day but absolutely should’ve played. It’s Picross—you know, those grid puzzles where numbers tell you which squares to fill—but with Mario characters popping up to cheer (or heckle) you as you go. Wario’s especially smug when you mess up.

At first, the grids seem simple, but halfway through, you’ll realize you’ve been staring at the same 15x15 puzzle for 20 minutes, second-guessing every move. The pixel art reveals are worth it though—seeing a shy guy or a question block slowly take shape never gets old. And yeah, the timer adds pressure, but in a good way, like racing against yourself.

It’s got that SNES charm—bright colors, chiptune music that worms into your brain, and zero fluff. Just you, a grid, and the sudden urge to shout "I knew that square was empty!" after hesitating for five minutes. If you like puzzles that make you feel clever (or occasionally very dumb), this one’s a gem.
