Puzzle Iroiro series

The Puzzle Iroiro: Gekkan Crossword House series was released in association with the Gekkan Crossword House magazine via DSiWare in Japan and was published by Nintendo. Since then, all games in the series are now delisted.

Puzzle Iroiro: Gekkan Crossword House is also attributed to Kosaido and Tose, and may be considered part of the Picross series, but with no known involvement from Jupiter except possible supervision/licensing. Despite the Gekkan Crossword House name, the puzzles include more than just crosswords; and includes puzzles based on the nonogram/Picross concept popularised by Jupiter.

• Puzzle Iroiro: Gekkan Crossword House Vol.1
• Puzzle Iroiro: Gekkan Crossword House Vol.2
• Puzzle Iroiro: Gekkan Crossword House Vol.3
• Puzzle Iroiro: Gekkan Crossword House Vol.4
• Puzzle Iroiro: Gekkan Crossword House Vol.5
• Puzzle Iroiro: Gekkan Crossword House Vol.6
