I'm not sure whether "Illustration Logic" (1591) is commonly used. In DAT we used "Illust Logic" (0679). I've seen also "Illust-Logic".

That this should be used because イラスト while said Irasuto (Illust) is obviously the Japanese borrowing Illustration (or Illustrate) from English. I felt this was supported even further given that the entire title is "Japanised" English.

Yes, on the japanese romanization discussion it was suggested to use the full spelling of the "katakanized" foreign words/expressions when those were clearly a "cool" or "cute" Japanese interpretation (Pro Wres example by NGEfreak). I agree with that.

But what I mean is that doesn't apply here because "Illust Logic" or "Illust-Logic" seems to be an accepted expression by itself, please check this wiki entry.

As an example to my point of view: according to current 1591, we should use "Picture Crossword" instead of "Picross". IMHO this would be an error.

Ok, I was unaware of the Illust-Logic name for those puzzles. I agree that in this case Illust Logic should be used.
