I have to admit, even after they played a few puzzles, I'm still horribly confused at how that works.

Dude, holy crap. I had enough trouble playing Picross on the Gameboy in 2D. This 3D stuff.... I can't handle it.

I really want this, but can't at the moment. In the meantime, I will dig out Logic Pro Adventure for the PS1. I guess I should make a page here for it too....

Well, gentlemen, you've just completely sold me on this game.
 
Such is the magic of Quick Looks, I suppose.

This is probably my most played game on the DS, I just could not put it down until I had all the puzzles completed and all the golden stars.

I'm so glad you did a QL on this, I didn't even know this was out and Picross DS was crack for me. 
 
Looks like it's time to get ridiculously addicted again

@BRINKTheMovieMyFavoriteMovie: dude seriously, I know. I also grabbed the JP version and have been crazy hooked. It's a perfect game to just zone out to while listening to music or something. 
That said I don't think I have quite as much endurance as you, I'm finally a bit burnt out. This US version will have to wait for now.

Way into this game.  Played all the way through the japanese version before I even knew it would be getting a stateside release.  Took a whole lot of lunch breaks at work to get through all those puzzles, let me tell 'ya.

I wish facebook had a better Picross ripoff than Griddlers. Will need to pick this up, apparently.

I didn't understand a thing that was going on. But it was interesting nonetheless. Not really my kind of thing though.

Those are some bitchin' tunes. I don't know if they are similar to what I'll soon refer to, but it really reminds me of Putt-Putt adventure games.
 
Which reminds me of Freddy Fish.
 
So, when's Picross3DHD coming out, with its AutoCAD models for the advanced players?
