Logiart Grimoire out on Switch next week

Jupiter, the studio behind the Picross S games, has set a release date for Logiart Grimoire on Switch. The title will be available on April 18, 2024.

Logiart Grimoire was previously announced for Switch last August. We knew it would be arriving sometime this year, but when exactly was unknown.

Some information about the game can be found via the following overview:

Jupiter Corporation launched a crowdfunding campaign for their new puzzle game, “Logiart Grimoire,” and it was an instant hit. The title secured funding easily and also locked in a Switch release at the same time, and now we know when the game’s set to launch. You’ll be able to enjoy Logiart Grimoire on Switch come April 18th, 2024.

You, who have taken hold of the Logiart grimoire, encounter Emil, the custodian of the grimoire.

Originally, it was the grimoire that could solve “Logiart”, but the cast magic has gone awry, transforming it into the enigmatic grimoire. Most of the “Logiart” can no longer be unraveled.

As one led by the Logiart’s grimoire, you can solve it and once again restore the ability to solve “Logiart.”
Let’s work together with Emil to unravel the mysteries of this enigmatic grimoire and restore it to its original state.
