Picross e

Picross e is the first game in the titular video game series, developed by Jupiter for Nintendo 3DS.

Gameplay
The difficulty curve and gameplay details of this game is pretty much similar to the previous Picross games: The modes Easy and Normal penalize the player for each mistake by adding to the elapsed time, which is unlimited (similar to the DS entry); whereas the modes  Free and EXTRA do not. The player can choose for a hint at the start of each puzzle - revealing a row and a column - and for the first time in the series, there is a "Navigation" option which highlights the rows/columns that have at least one certainly solvable cell. (Both these features are disabled each five levels, i.e. for the puzzles at the top-right column of the puzzle select menu.) Also, the pixel art of the puzzle appears in colors only if it's solved under 60 minutes.
