How to play Nonogram
Fill squares to match the number clues and reveal a hidden picture.
The rules
- The numbers beside each row and above each column list the runs of filled squares in that line, in order.
- Runs in the same line are separated by at least one empty square.
- Fill the right squares and a picture appears. Every puzzle can be solved by logic, with no guessing.
How to get started
- Start with the biggest numbers: a run of 8 in a line of 10 must cover the middle 6 squares wherever it sits.
- Tap a square to fill it, tap again to mark it empty (✕), and once more to clear it. Drag to fill several at once.
- A line whose clue is 0 is entirely empty.
- When a line is complete, mark its remaining squares ✕. That gives clues to the lines crossing it.
- Ask the coach which line to work on next.
A tip
Work on the line with the biggest total of clues plus gaps: it leaves the least room, so more squares are forced.
