Glyphweaver is a hand-crafted nonogram roguelite for the players who quietly wish their picross puzzles had a story to remember.

You are a Weaver. The Lattice — the underlying weave of the world — has frayed. You repair it, glyph by glyph, nonogram by nonogram, in the only language the Lattice still understands: pattern.

A FOUR-ACT JOURNEY
• 60 nonogram encounters per run, across 4 hand-illustrated biomes.
• 7 NPCs in the Sanctuary Between Threads, each with a multi-stage relationship arc.
• 5 Weavers, each with a unique signature power that bends the puzzle rules in their favor.
• 50 boons (Glyphs, Sigils, Echoes) that snowball into wildly different builds — flawless, aggressive-hint, glass-cannon, snowball, and more.
• 4 boss encounters, each with hand-authored signature nonograms AND a rule-bending mechanic that mutates the board mid-fight.
• An NG+5 ladder that reshapes the run beneath you.
• A true-ending epilogue for the players who walk all the way.

ALSO KNOWN AS PICROSS, GRIDDLER, OR PAINT BY NUMBERS — but Glyphweaver is what happens when you treat the picross logic puzzle as the heart of a 40-hour single-player narrative roguelite, not a casual time-killer.

Often called a "roguelike" — technically a roguelite (each run leaves permanent meta-progression in the Sanctuary), but if you love deck-building roguelikes like Slay the Spire or Balatro, you will feel right at home.

A QUIET, DELIBERATE MEDITATION ON A NOISY GENRE
• No ads. No in-app purchases. No premium currency. No battle pass. No paid DLC. Ever. One purchase, the game, and that is the whole contract between us.
• No telemetry. No analytics. No tracking SDK. Your save data lives on this device alone, in the OS-private application directory.
• No login required. No online check. The single-player nonogram campaign is fully playable in airplane mode forever.
• 8 languages at launch: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese, Simplified Chinese.

ACCESSIBILITY IS A FEATURE, NOT A FOOTNOTE
• 5 colorblind palettes (deuteranopia, protanopia, tritanopia, monochrome, standard).
• Text scale 80%–150%.
• High-contrast cell borders for clearer nonogram grids.
• No-fail mode for story players.
• Hint floor — every puzzle, always, has at least one free hint available.
• Reduced motion mode.
• Full haptics control.

YOU FINISH THIS GAME, YOU WILL HAVE FINISHED A GAME.
