Play Picross NP Vol. 5 Online
You’re solving Zelda-themed picross puzzles—slowly revealing pixel art of Link, Navi, and other OoT characters by filling in grids. Same satisfying logic as Mario’s Super Picross, just with a Hylian makeover.
Picross NP Vol. 5 came out for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1999, published by Nintendo. It was part of a special Nintendo Power subscription series, arriving late in the SNES lifecycle when most players had already moved on to newer consoles. This volume focuses entirely on puzzles themed around The Legend of Zelda, specifically Ocarina of Time characters and items.
You don't control a character in the traditional sense; instead, you solve nonogram puzzles by deducing which squares to fill or mark empty on a grid. The goal is to complete each puzzle to reveal a small piece of Zelda themed pixel art, like Link's face or a Cucco. Key mechanics include using numbered clues on the grid edges to determine correct placements, and making use of an optional hint system if you get stuck. The pacing is methodical, and some larger puzzles require careful attention to avoid errors. It feels like quietly untangling a knot, one logical step at a time.
