Homgard

Very nicely playing nonogram game with an interesting discovery mechanism and some nice twists with different kinds of clues. It goes quickly, but is really deep.

I'm frustrated by this game. I don't make a habit of writing reviews, and something really does have to move me in a specific way to get that distinction. I wanted to love this game, a lot. But the AI content of it made me frustrated enough to refund it outright. Why would you make this much beautiful artwork just to ruin it with AI slop?

A recent review called the game "Minesweeper on steroids", and that's pretty much on point (I wasn't aware of nonograms before playing this, & Minesweeper was my first comparison as well). Hence, I can only add that it's damn good, with just the right amount of hair-pulling at times, and no hints required if you put some little grey cells into it. Sorry - or not - to say that I didn't pay any attention to the story, but then again I'm not a story guy. Definitely recommended. I'll certainly buy the next installment.
