How to play Nonogram
Use a short break to learn the rhythm of Nonogram. Shade the grid so every row and column matches its run-length clues. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Compare the starting position with the example in the Guide. Look at what changes after your first action.
Work through a collection of twelve 5×5 picture puzzles.
Build a steady rhythm
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Notice the feedback after each input.
Your goal
Shade the grid so every row and column matches its run-length clues. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Start with a deliberate move.
Step by step
- Cycle a square between filled, crossed and blank.
- Keep separate runs apart by at least one blank.
- Combine row and column deductions.
- Check puzzle verifies the finished grid.
Controls
Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Use one clear input at a time.
A useful example
Clue 2 1 requires a run of two, a blank separator, and a run of one. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Keep the game’s format in mind.
Watch out for this
Do not merge two separate runs. Check the rule before repeating the action. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
