What is a Nonogram?

A nonogram, also known as Picross or Griddlers, is a logic puzzle where you reveal a hidden picture by filling in cells based on numerical clues. These clues indicate how many consecutive filled cells appear in each row and column. By using logic and deduction, you gradually uncover the hidden image pixel by pixel.

Nonogram Tips

Getting Started

  • • Start with the largest numbers in rows and columns
  • • Use X marks to indicate empty cells
  • • Look for completed rows or columns first

Advanced Tips

  • • Cross-reference between rows and columns
  • • Look for overlapping segments
  • • Use edge cases to your advantage

Nonogram Strategy

Basic Strategies

Simple Boxes

Start with rows and columns where boxes must be filled due to size constraints.

Edge Working

Work from the edges inward to establish definite filled and empty cells.

Advanced Techniques

Forcing

Use known cells to force the position of other cells in the same row or column.

Contradiction

Identify impossible arrangements to determine correct cell states.

Nonogram Puzzle Types

By Complexity

  • • Simple shapes and patterns (5x5, 9x9)
