Link-a-Pix rules
Link-a-Pix are exciting Picture Logic puzzles that form whimsical pixel-composed pictures when solved. Challenging, deductive and artistic, this original Japanese invention offers the ultimate mix of logic, art and fun while providing solvers with many hours of mentally stimulating entertainment.
Link-a-Pix is a clue-linking puzzle based on a grid with a pixilated picture hidden inside. Using logic alone, the solver determines which squares are painted and which should remain empty until the hidden picture is completely exposed.
Link-a-Pix puzzles come in B&W and colour, and are available in many sizes and difficulty levels taking anything from five minutes to several hours to solve. However, make one mistake and you’ll find yourself stuck later on as you get closer to the solution...
If you like Pic-a-Pix, Sudoku and other logic puzzles, you will love Conceptis Link-a-Pix as well! In addition to the descriptions below a tutorial page is also provided.
B&W Link-a-Pix
Each puzzle consists of a grid containing clues in various places. Every clue, except for the 1’s, is half of a pair. The object is to reveal a hidden picture by linking the pairs and painting the paths so that the number of squares in the path, including the squares at the ends, equals the value of the clues being linked together. Squares containing 1 represent paths that are 1-square long. Paths may follow horizontal or vertical directions and are not allowed to cross other paths.
