Block-a-Pix: Block Puzzle – Entertainment Game Review
Block-a-Pix: Block Puzzle is a Entertainment/Puzzle/Board game from Conceptis Ltd., first launched in 21st December 2016.
It’s rated 4+ and currently has 295+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Block-a-Pix: Block Puzzle Stand Out
Find the blocks, fill with color and discover a hidden pixel-art picture! Each puzzle consists of a grid containing clues in various places. The object is to reveal a hidden picture by dividing the whole area of the grid into rectangular blocks according to the rules.
Block-a-Pix are exciting logic puzzles that form whimsical pixel-composed pictures when solved. Challenging, deductive and artistic, these puzzles offer the ultimate mix of logic, art and fun while providing solvers with many hours of mentally stimulating entertainment.
The game features a unique fingertip cursor which enables playing large puzzle grids with ease and precision: to create a block, press and hold fingertip on a clue, wait until cursor fills the square and start dragging to neighboring squares. To delete a block, double-tap or use the eraser button above the puzzle.
To help see the puzzle progress, graphic previews in the puzzle list show the progress of all puzzles in a volume as they are being solved. A Gallery view option provides these previews in a larger format.
For more fun, Block-a-Pix contains no ads and includes a Weekly Bonus section providing an extra free puzzle each week.

Community Insight:
No ads, 125 free levels, many many more for not too much money, super fun brain teaser, and overall we really dont think you could ask for more from a game :D.
We don't know how these guys do it but they've come up with yet another new and exciting puzzle. This one, like the others, is highly addictive. Thanks for another puzzle. Love it.
This is the best game ever! No ads! No Wi-Fi required! But there is one thing. They are five free packs? Well thats not too little but it could be better. We paid for one of the packs,(world wonders and more 1) thats 100×65 size and 65×100 size! Anyway, we highly recommend this cool game! Omg! Best game ever! Dont always look for games that have ads and that are garbage! This is one no ad game! No Wi-Fi game! Oh and yeah, why do you have to pay for 1 sextillion packs!!!!!!!???????????? Omg love this game.
We enjoy working the weekly puzzle. Ended up buying more puzzle packs.
We totally enjoy this game and probably spend way too much time on it.
These are a little tougher than the other apps we have tried so far, which makes these a lot more enjoyable to try to solve. Im still on the free & weekly puzzles, but Ill be purchasing more sets to play reall soon. Another great game by Conceptis.
Its been a while since we played this game but never deleted it. Recently, Im been getting tired of the apps popping up too often on some of our games. Ive always loved this game. So, Im coming back.
Another fantastic picture puzzle from Conceptis.
This game literally WILL NOT STOP asking us to rate it, no matter how many times we say No. Its been at least 7-8 times now.
Pricey, but no glitches. Wish one could sort puzzles by level of difficulty as only very hard levels are challenging but one must look for those sets. However, didnt take us long to realize theyre the expensive packs, hence the 4 stars. Lower (cheaper) difficulty levels are too easy to be worth the purchase.
These puzzles are fun and not too challenging. Children can find enjoyment with these puzzles since they come in different difficulty levels. These are our favorite online puzzles.
In todays complex world, we need a space to just relax with a bit of fun and challenge. Love this game.
We really like the game however they only give you 50 free puzzles then you have to pay for more and each is only 20 more puzzles. The ads arent too bad you can close them quickly. If you could advance to another packet of puzzles by completing a packet Id have maybe given 4 stars. We dont pay to play games.
This is both simple and challenging. You have to rely on the times tables for the larger blocks. To make the picture correctly, there are no spaces. This takes thought. It also makes it easier. We love this game.
Love this app! Every time we open it we are challenged and pleased.
We've been a fan of this game from the time it was paper-pencil. The app is great and the latest features make it even more fun.
We don't know how they keep coming up with such varied but interesting puzzles. This is another great one, try out the free starter puzzles to see what you think. Edit: After doing bunches of the free puzzles, we are regularly downloading packs of hard and hard plus puzzles and really enjoying the way these puzzles stretch our thinking.
Excellent interface. Easy to zoom in and out. We love the Check feature. We highly recommend.
We love apps that can challenge you not only logically, but with new ways. Even though you may have to pay for these packages, it is well worth the time that it takes to solve each one. Ive had the Conceptis Pic-a-Pix for several years and Im barely into the vast number of volumes of puzzles available to us. We like the subject matter and the types of puzzles that you can choose from. Please, keep coming up with new logic puzzles! ***On a side note, if possible, could you make an app that has 3D sudoku, or different types of sudoku, besides just basic sudoku? Even 3D word searches would be cool! Keep up the awesome work.
Fun to play, and we would be willing to pay one price for all, but not what you are charging.
This is a great puzzle game challenge. It could do with a a couple of tweaks, like the color page could have the check button on it so you dont have to switch pages or leave the error as you go on. Warning ! Addictive :).
Love most of the Conceptis games. Fun, easy to play, and try before you buy.
This is a fun game! Most puzzles are challenging, but still doable. We do wish there was a hint option, in addition to the Solve option (which solves a puzzle for you, but doesnt show you how). Some of the puzzles are 90% completable, but the last 10% seems unsolvable (we have spent hours on a single puzzle, unable to find the one or two options that work). So, a hint, showing a possible option to try would be preferable to the Solve option, so we still have a chance to try.
Block-a-Pix is a great time anywhere.
Cant wait for the new puzzle each week.
We love how its so easy and fun to do.
This is a must-have for lovers of picture-logic puzzles! This simple, easy-to-learn puzzle is rewarding in all sizes and variations. Download this app.
This is a logic block puzzle that is very addictive. We wish the app came with more puzzles.
Love this new game! Started doing Conceptis games with Paint by Numbers in Games magazine and it's been off to the races with all the games since then. Keep it up.
Another great puzzle game by this publisher.
Thanks for this game. Please keep up the great work.
Good game, well written. Never ran into any bugs. While the execution is spot on, we just didn't find it as fun as some of their other games. It doesn't have as much of a challenge or additiveness.
Thanks for changing the game back. We hated the "up-grade". We're so glad you changed it back. We like the game, again.
We love this game. Great stress reliever and gets our mind going in the morning. We would like the option of having the 1s filled in though.
This game is great! We highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys picture logic puzzles.
We love this game it is so much fun and easy to learn.
Conceptis has fun puzzles with brilliant user interfaces. Very well done.
Another awesome logic puzzle game. Conceptis has this thing down at this point and every app runs smoothly and is REALLY easy to use.
We enjoy puzzle games. This is a good one.
Another great puzzle from Conceptis. Just took a minute to learn and we were solving pictures. A whole new way to think.
We love nanogram/pictogram games. This game does not disappoint! It's relaxing. The interface is easy to manipulate.
Issues zooming and moving around on screen.
