Game play was very fun, definitely felt the hype. One suggestion would be to make the AI adaptive because I destroyed it on my first try. Great job overall!

Nice idea of a game within a game within a game. I liked that the AI is on the move behind the scenes. I took a long time on a nonogram game because I was AFK and then when I returned the AI got like 3 boxes on the tic-tac-toe and I was like what?! I though it would wait for my input but that's not the case. Quite fun.

Santa PC Please!We have like 50 board games to choose from, which do you want to play?
The Devs: Yes.
This was a really fun submission. Thank you for making it. This would be a pretty awesome multiplayer game.

Swords to PlowsharesFantastic idea! I really like the "gameception" or games inside of a game. The game was on the easy side but for a game jam it's better to be more cautious as you can always add difficulty options later. I also like the little touches of the scrolling backgrounds when playing tic tac toe :)

My Beautiful Creations!Love the idea... Nonograms tend to repeat themselves a bit making the game a bit too easy (which isn't always bad). Also love how you added customization options.

Cheddar's BonkThis is such a stupid idea for a game, but it works SO DAMN WELL! The bot is pretty stupid, but even if there's not a whole lot of actual difficulty, racing against the clock is still pretty great. You should honestly add a timer and keep track of people's best times.

FactoRHYTHMI gave your bot a beatdown lol. I think adding a difficulty bar for your game would be exceptional for people who want to try hard versus not tho the bot is moving pretty fast I know some people really think they can beat a computer lol. Also, you may want to explain what a nonogram puzzle is before people start playing the game I still don't truly know but put the pieces together rather quickly! Overall very fun was not expecting an inception-type strategy game!

Dont Forget To SmileUnfortunately I got the glitch on browser that other person mentioned where you can't see the connect 4 tokens, neither the nonogram squares getting colored. Besides that, the idea is super clever and I would play this for hours on end! Great job.

Doki Doki GardenIn case you're interested, another commenter mentioned that she was using Chrome on a Mac as well, so I think that combination just might not work for some reason. You can try another browser, or if you have access to a Window machine, that seems to be working as well (both web and download).
Thanks again for the bug report so I can warn others! I'll stop spamming you with replies now 😉
Very creative idea! I had a good time playing it :) this must be insane if you make it multiplayer hahah. Good job :)

Tower StackerThis was SUPER clever! It would have been more enjoyable for me if I knew what a Nonogram was 😅. After the tutorial, when you see the game the AI is playing, it all of a sudden gave the game a sense of tension and thrill. This was a lot of work for 96 hr jam! Well done!

Scale WizardThis is one thing I definitely wish I could have gotten to - randomly generated puzzles (and puzzles slightly bigger than 4x4) would have made the nonograms much more interesting. There's only 20 puzzles, and when you get 9 per tic-tac-toe board, that's definitely gonna lead to a lot of repeats! Thanks for playing!
Very cool concept, I think this would be really fun to play against real player, especially with friends in local multiplayer.

Pixel RushBest game I've played so far.
I knew those years of Twilight Princess Picross would pay off.
