Play Nonogram with the rules at hand
Open Nonogram, check the instructions and begin a round. Shade the grid so every row and column matches its run-length clues. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Make your first input carefully and watch the result. Look at what changes after your first action.
Work through a collection of twelve 5×5 picture puzzles.

Aim for this result
Shade the grid so every row and column matches its run-length clues. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Take a moment to understand the current position.
From the start of a round
- 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.
Using the playing area
Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.
One way to understand the rules
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. Notice the change in the playing area.
A common point of confusion
Do not merge two separate runs. A different version of the game may use a different rule. 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.
