Nintendo’s puzzle-art game Picross is getting its Pokémon edition.

Pokémon Picross is coming to the Nintendo 3DS next month, the publisher said during its Nintendo livestream today. It is a “free to start” game, which means it will feature microtransactions to purchase more puzzles. As the name suggests, in this version of Picross, you’ll have to make pictures of different pocket monsters. The game has “over 300 puzzles” but Nintendo didn’t provide many details on whether that is including with the free download or if you’ll have to pay for them all individually.
