Uncover hidden pictures one cell at a time in Nonogram, the beloved picture logic puzzle also known as Picross. Use number clues along the rows and columns to determine which cells to fill and which to leave empty, gradually revealing a delightful pixel art image. The numbers tell you how many consecutive filled cells appear in each line -- multiple numbers mean multiple groups separated by at least one empty cell. Start with rows and columns that have large numbers for guaranteed fills, then use overlapping possibilities and elimination to solve even the trickiest puzzles. With carefully designed puzzle packs ranging from quick 5x5 grids to sprawling challenges, Nonogram offers hours of satisfying logic puzzling. Mark cells as definitely empty with X markers to track your progress, and watch as each completed puzzle reveals a charming picture.
