Nonograms, also known as Paint by Numbers, Picross, Griddlers, Pic-a-Pix, kenken, kakuro, pictogram, numbrix, shikaku, nurikabe and various other names, are picture logic puzzles in which cells in a grid must be colored or left blank according to numbers at the side of the grid to reveal a hidden picture. In this puzzle type, the numbers are a form of discrete tomography that measures how many unbroken lines of filled-in squares there are in any given row or column. For example, a clue of "4 8 3" would mean there are sets of four, eight, and three filled squares, in that order, with at least one blank square between successive sets.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pixel Path holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pixel Path has 876 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Pixel Path's written reviews are positive against 80% of Nonogram Color's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Pixel Path ships an update every 2 months, Nonogram Color monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
