About Proverbs
Proverbs is a digital cross-stitch puzzle in which you complete a single grid of more than 54,000 pieces. Numbered clues from 0 to 9 show how many light tiles must be placed within one square of each clue. The puzzle uses the rules of a Mega Mosaic, which the description compares to Minesweeper.
The painting and its proverbs
As you solve the grid, you reveal more than 100 illustrations of 16th-century Dutch proverbs and idioms from Peter Bruegel the Elder's painting Netherlandish Proverbs. Many of the sayings remain familiar today.
Sound and achievements
You can listen to the built-in Renaissance soundtrack or play your own music or podcasts. The game includes more than 90 achievements and offers dozens of hours of puzzle-solving.
