Pixel Restorer

You are the city's last pixel restorer, bringing faded photographs back to their original glory one rectangle at a time. Split each image into numbered regions, box them into exact sizes, and watch pixel artwork appear. Easy to learn, quietly tricky, and set to relaxing music.

Boxing numbers into pixel pictures

Every photo arrives faded and sealed away, already split into regions. You drag the mouse to draw rectangles over the cells, each one holding a single number that has to match its cell count. Get them all right and the level clicks shut.

You drag a long thin box across six cells marked 6, erase it when it overlaps, then hit refresh and try again. Hints and a peek at the full image sit on three buttons at the side for when a region stops making sense. The controls stay simple, the puzzles stay fair, and finishing one means another carefully drawn picture waiting behind it.

Retro pictures and quiet music

This is restoration work at a very relaxed pace. The art is retro pixel style, colorful and cute, made to be uncovered slowly rather than rushed. There are a large number of levels, each one easy to start and still able to make you pause and recount a stubborn corner.

Relaxing background music keeps the mood soft while you draw, erase, and redraw rectangles. No timers, no pressure, just faded photographs turning bright again under your mouse.

What else should you know?

How do the puzzles actually work?

Each level gives you a faded photo divided into regions. You fill every region with rectangles, and each rectangle must contain exactly one number equal to its cell count. Draw by holding the mouse and dragging over cells, erase the same way. A level ends when every region is filled correctly.

Can you get help when you get stuck?

Yes. Three buttons on the left let you refresh a region, get a hint, or look at the full image you are restoring. Useful when you have one rectangle left and the math refuses to cooperate.

Can you play it solo?

Yes, it is made for solo play. You work through the levels alone, at your own pace, with nothing to coordinate and no one waiting on your next rectangle.
