This is the first time I've heard of pixel puzzles. As you no doubt also know, Google gives no useful links. Apparently the publisher/creator/bookseller is/are unwilling to give us free whatever is being sold. It looks something like sudoku. I'm intrigued, but can't see that it can possibly have anything to do with geometry.

As someone pointed out, there's an overlap between the broad areas of geometry and logic, but...

I don't know where else you could post this question, though. I rather hope that someone will respond helpfully.

I have just forwarded to you, LAKEBUNNY, a page from Conceptis showing Pic-a-Pix, which seems to be very like if not just like pixel puzzles, as nearly as I can tell without seeing the pixel puzzle books. The Conceptis site may have further interest for you.

If you want to try doing these puzzles, both with squares and triangles go to

www.griddlers.net

It has a lot of the puzzles there and watch out or you will become addicted like me :)

Good Luck

I'm addicted too, but I was getting tired of the plain old black and white puzzles. I saw a post on the conceptis site about a new book in color at www.bigflygames.com, so I bought one. This is WAY more fun than black and white! I've done all the 2-color puzzles so far and I'm working on the 3-color ones now. They look like they're getting bigger and maybe harder towards the middle and back of the book, so this will probably take me months to finish...
