About this game
Color Cross is a picture puzzle game similar to Picross , where the objective is to fill all the correct cells in a grid to form a picture.
Each row and column has a series of numbers as clues, indicating the groups of continuous cells that must be painted.

The player must use logic to discover the remaining spots and complete the figure.
The main difference this time is the addition of multiple colors per picture, instead of the monochromatic approach of other titles.
Players can select back and forth between colors by clicking on the palette at the side of the screen.
Cells can be painted individually or as a group by clicking and dragging across them with the cursor.
In each color option, cells can be marked with an X to point them out as incorrect places.
Any mistakes are corrected automatically, affecting the final score.
New levels are unlocked with each completed picture.
They are organized by picture theme at the level selection menu.
Every time a line or column is completed, the clue numbers become grayed out and a shower of candies, fairies and other theme-related items fall from it to the bottom of the screen.
About Nintendo DS
The dual-screen, touch-enabled Nintendo DS (2004) became the best-selling handheld of all time, helped by its huge and genre-diverse library. Cartridge-based DS games have held up well physically over 20 years, and complete-in-box copies of the system's biggest sellers (Nintendogs, Pokémon, Mario Kart) remain very accessible for new collectors starting out.
Gamevaro tracks Color Cross for Nintendo DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Color Cross to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NDS release dates back to 2010.

Market insights
Rarity & condition

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
