Picadoo for iOS

Picadoo is a puzzle game that challenges you to identify which objects go together and then enter in the word that unites them. Solve puzzles to earn coins and work your way up to more and more challenging levels. Then, cash in your coins to get help when you need it the most.

The main screen of Picadoo offers you the options to play or get info about the game. The info page gives you a brief overview of the mechanics of the app, as well as the ability to turn the sound on and off. When you're ready to play, you'll see a grid of 12 images that could be anything from a rainbow to a banana. To solve the puzzle, you have to select three images that you think are connected. If you're right, you'll then be prompted to enter the word that unites them into the proper amount of blank spaces using only the letters displayed below the boxes. With one group down, it's time to find the next group of three from the remaining nine images, and repeat the process. When you've made all of the connections, you've cleared the level and can move on to the next one.

While playing, you'll see a toolbar at the top of the interface with options to share a puzzle with friends on Facebook or Twitter, an action for which you earn an extra 30 coins. There is also an icon to access hints, but each hit costs you coins, so you don't want to use that unless you're completely stuck. Your coin total is displayed on this toolbar, as well, and you earn three coins for each level you complete. This game is free, fun, and addictive, so if you like photo puzzle games, it's worth trying out.
