What Makes Mystery Riddles Stand Out
A doubly puzzling magical adventure!
The most powerful magicians in the kingdom of Mysteria were once the Pictomancers, who had the power to imbue painted or woven images with arcane energy. They have all but disappeared from the land, taking their secrets with them, but the Great Tapestries they created in their heyday have kept Mysteria from harm… until now.
With the Great Tapestries fraying and darkness returning to threaten Mysteria it's up to you, the last Pictomancer, to quest throughout the kingdom and restore these powerful images and save the kingdom. Take on the journey in one of two modes, tackling either the always-popular Pic-A-Pix puzzles or the brand new Fill-A-Pix!
Each mode offers 100 exciting levels to tease your brain (200 total), making this a game you're going to want to play through at least twice! Mysteria needs you and its riddles await: Are you up for the challenge?
- Two different game modes – Picross and Fill-a-Pix
- 100 levels in each mode, 200 in total!
- Huge puzzles – grids up to 30×30
- Rich game world, with 10 mysterious locations to explore
- Beautiful painted backgrounds
This Puzzle game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
Enjoying it very much. We have played several of their games and enjoy all of them.
This is fun. Here is review for more levels.
So far, so good. Still playing.
We have gone back and restarted this game and played from start to finish many times. Thanks for updating enough to keep this game active! We bought this game years ago and still enjoy it.
What a crappy way to get good ratings. Its a good game but not 5 stars. Id normally give it 2 or 3.
This game has clear instructions plus we enjoy the background music.
Only giving a 5 star review to get/play a few more levels.
Actually a fun game, and haven't seen enough other apps like it. But c'mon, at least be up front about your pay-to-play mechanic.
The nonograms are great in this game.
Lot's of fun. Relaxing music. Very addictive.
Leaving the review because it's required for extra levels.
We're really enjoying these puzzles. No time limits, just pure fun.
Best and only enjoyable mosaic game for iphone.
Great game only wish had more levels.
We wish there was more levels but we love.
We've always enjoyed these games and live that it's now in the phone. Fun game.
Great way to pass the time on the iPhone.
Fun game! Good level of difficulty. We enjoy Mystery Riddles.
We really should be doing dishes right now.
We love the stories and pictures.
It's fine. Don't like to be forced to give a review to play.
Love this game. Have a similar one on our computer and they're totally addicting.
Seems fun. Reviewing so we can unlock more free levels.
It's a good game but the free levels go fast and then you are forced to review or buy to get more levels.
Great game, awesome mental workout.
We are enjoying the game and other games like this.
Great pictograph game!!! And we have played a lot.
We love this game but it is very addicting wish there where more like this game out in the game world.
This is a great app! Lots of fun. No problems so far. Very addicting.
We have recently become addicted to this type of puzzle and this is the very best app we have found to play it with.
Fun but too much involved to keep playing.
This is definitely a fun nono game. We had to think for a minute to see if we could come up with anything we didnt like but reallythe only thing would be that there isnt a color-switch option like other nonos.
Its confusing with every other game being more than one color. Wish you could choose to just do one color or more than one.
Dont be fooled by all the 5-star reviews – after several free levels the app forces you to pay or else to leave a 5-star review in order to keep playing a few more free levels. Im skeptical that they can track whether we left a 5-star review or a 1-star review (doesnt seem right if they can), so Im leaving it at 4 stars. Its kind of relaxing, good background music while you solve the puzzles. We were looking more for a real mystery game type app, but these puzzles were pretty chill. They get more difficult as you go, but they are doable.
This is the first time we've played a puzzle game like this. We are enjoying it, but wish there were more levels without having to review.
If u like picross then you'll like this.
We enjoy doing it when we need a no brainier activity. Or something to let us calm down. It's a great pastime.
Love the game but want more of it.
Reminds us of world mosaics so far.
We enjoy playing these types of puzzle games. This is a good quality game.
We play a lot of games and really like this one. The story line is hard to follow but other than that it's a good game.
We love puzzle games! So fun and easy to learn.
Not many levels and making you leave a review is tacky.
Just doing this to unlock levels.
App keeps crashing. Won't allow us to purchase-requires a review to continue. We like it better on a PC but the game itself is challenging and enjoyable.
Alright but don't like having to write a review so early in the game.
The game is fun with great graphics and helps to pass time, but after only playing 10 levels of both types of puzzles, they want your money to buy the game UNLESS you give them a rating and then it says they will let you play a few more levels. We don't like being pressured to leave a review, thus the low rating. Secondly, it would have been nice to have played 10 more levels WITHOUT leaving a review just so we would know, #1…how we truly felt overall about the game. And #2, if we would want to purchase it.
Writing to continue the level. We love mosaics.
We love these types of games and this was a good one!! If it was free we would certainly not complain about it. However, we had to pay $7 to play the full game, and it only took us half a day to finish! That just doesn't seem right.
Love the game but it stinks that you have to buy additional levels.
