World Mosaics 6
Also known as nanogram, picross, griddlers, paint by number, and any other name that refers to logical number games. Similar games available here at BFG are World Mosaics 1-5, Gemsweeper, World Riddles: Animals, & Arizona Rose & the Pirates Riddles. In past WM versions you restored the Atlantis World Museum,then went on as an apprentice and had schooling in chronology. Traveling through time seems to be a trait of each edition. This version you are gathering evidence against a cat burglar named LaForge who has stolen the hour glass from the Atlantean Museum, LaForge taunts you by leaving these puzzles behind as clues to where he is traveling next.

Requires 1024 RAM and 72MB hard drive. On the main page along the bottom of the screen are the following: Options, Credits, Bonus, Tips, & Quit, the Play button is in the center of the screen. Options, allows you to set a slider for your music & sounds. Then there are boxes to check or un check for Disable Hints, Custom Cursor, Right Click swap, Show selection of Numbers, Full Screen and Stretch screen which allows you to customize the game to your own preferences. Bonus content is 150 bonus puzzles in addition to the 100 puzzles in the main game.

Upon completion of each puzzle your time used, hints used, mistakes made are listed so you can replay to improve your performance.

A few sounds are reused from the past versions, but the majority of the music is new, to me it sounds like Jazz detective music, I liked it, but for those who don't, the slider can easily turn it off for you.

The first location was in one of the old Soviet countries and involved ***[color=#ffffff]guards, barbed wire and nuclear weapons being launched.[/color]**** There were 10 boards in that section & all were 10X10, the picture in the background was dreary, to say the least. Each completed board earns you a puzzle piece but the game puts them together, not you, which was a lost opportunity in my opinion. The second area had 10 boards also, & was a past Dutch Olympic location.

Two of the sample boards on the BFG game page show 15X15 boards so they will get bigger but I had almost finished the second group of 10 when my demo time ran out, and had only solved 10X10 boards so far. Hopefully there will be larger boards and SOON. Up to now the boards have been rather easy.
I will be purchasing with a pcc. Show less

I recommend this game!

My husband & I have been waiting for the new WM. I bought it 20 mins after it came up as "Tomorrow's Game Today". Couldn't wait. This is a game that you either like or you don't. Try any of the demos before you buy, but I always recommend trying ANY game before you buy.

I've been a great fan of World Mosaics since the beginning of the series, and am delighted to say that this one is my favorite so far. There's a touch of humor, the puzzles are fun, and an enjoyable storyline in Version 6. If you enjoyed the previous versions, you'll love this one. I highly, highly recommend!

I recommend this game!

I bought this game without previewing it because I LOVE these games! I don't care about the storyline or if the picture is good/clear or whatever...I just love the game. I played two levels last night (yes it came out at 3am!) and was NOT disappointed! Unlike other games of this type, it did not start with a 5X5 but 10X10...and was NOT overly easy!

Finally a game that I can get into.
I love these games and always buy them. Like others have said the story is not the main grab factor in these games, the challenge of the puzzles is.
You have more options to how you input the squares and pins, which I really like as you can make it as easy or hard for yourself.

Personally the story seems a bit better then the others, more suspense and wonder then just finding artifacts.
I only played about 5-10 minutes and decided to purchase, seeing I had a free game coupon I figured this is the one to spend it on. :D Show less

I've been waiting for what seems forever for the WM to come out. These are at the top of my favorite games and I was thrilled to finally see #6. I only have one minor complaint - on some of the screens, because of the background, some of the tiles are a bit hard to see. Not enough to ruin the game - it's still great!

I only have one minor complaint - on some of the screens, because of the background, some of the tiles are a bit hard to see. Not enough to ruin the game - it's still great! The WM's are a lot of fun if you like puzzle games. For years I used to look forward to the next logic puzzle books to be published because they always included a paper version of these games. I was thrilled to find them reinvented as computer games. Show less

This series appeals to those who love challenges that require reasoning and elimination skills to solve the puzzles. You might as well use those skills rather than getting docked for using a hint because there's plenty of chances for errors of which you'll only get docked once for making the amount allowed. Almost every mistake I have made could have been prevented had I stayed focused.

Almost every mistake I have made could have been prevented had I stayed focused.

I'm not much into history or war stories but the story doesn't take away from the game at all. If you do like war stories from the past, you'll like this one because it is quite imaginative. I find myself returning to this game quite often. Especially when I want to be challenged. I definitely recommend this game and it is at the top of my list of my favorites. I also recommend all the rest of the mosaics games in this series. Show less

But the music is AWFUL!!! It's worse than a funeral. Play some other music if you can... or better yet - please, please, developers -- change the music!! It is SO sad!!!

Otherwise - wonderful addition, thanks Big Fish!! Show less
