How to Play Nonogram
A nonogram puzzle game is a grid-based logic puzzle where players use numerical clues to determine which cells should be filled in and which should remain empty.
The numbers on the sides of the grid indicate the lengths of consecutive filled blocks in each row and column. By deducing the correct pattern, players gradually reveal a hidden pattern.
On your first tries, you can click the Show Solution button to reveal the solution which will help you understand how the game works.
Nonogram Tips & Strategy
- Start with the largest numbers. A big clue in a small line leaves very few possible positions, so it's often solvable immediately.
- Look for clues that exactly fill the line. If a row or column's numbers plus the required gaps between them add up to the line's full length, every cell in it is already determined.
- Cross-reference rows and columns. Filling a cell based on a row clue can immediately confirm or rule out possibilities for that cell's column, and vice versa.
- Mark cells you're sure are empty (right-click) as you go — it keeps your deductions visible and stops you from reconsidering cells you've already ruled out.
Frequently Asked Questions
Each number is the length of a consecutive block of filled cells in that row or column, listed in order. For example, "3 1" means a block of 3 filled cells, then a gap, then a block of 1.
Left-click fills a cell in as part of the picture. Right-click marks a cell as definitely empty (crossed out), which helps you track your deductions without affecting the solution.
Grid size (5x5 up to 12x12) sets the puzzle dimensions. Difficulty sets how densely filled the hidden picture is — 30% of cells on Easy, up to 70% on Hard.
