Gameplay
A Picross is a puzzle where square grids must be filled in order to create a picture. Hint numbers are adjacent to each horizontal and vertical row, which indicate how many squares in that row must be filled. During each puzzle, a timer is given. If the player is able to finish within 60 minutes, the completed picture will be in color. The game includes three modes: regular Picross, Mega Picross, and Micross, the former two sharing the puzzles but in a different order. Mega Picross features larger hint numbers called Mega Numbers, which span over two rows. Micross consists of one overall puzzle and multiple micro puzzles. The pictures in each puzzle are based on characters and items from, with the exception of the tutorial puzzles.

Midna provides the player with tutorials and tips on how to complete the puzzles. Several help settings can also be turned on and off, including autocheck and navigation functions, and a Hint Roulette. If on, the Hint Roulette can be spun at the beginning of every puzzle, filling one horizontal and one vertical row when the A button is pressed at the start of the puzzle. Navigation provides some further hints by turning the numbers blue for any rows which can be partially solved through deduction, helping the player to solve the puzzles more quickly. The autocheck function automatically corrects any square filled erroneously at the cost of minutes added to the timer.

Upon completing a puzzle, a Miiverse Stamp is awarded based on the puzzle's solution, which was then able to be shared on Miiverse before its closure. When a mode is fully completed, a gold medal appears next to it. Once every puzzle is completed, the combined completion time of each mode appears on the title screen.
