THE PLAYBOOK · SUDAANMO
Getting started with Nonogram
Start Nonogram by looking at the playing area and its controls. Shade the grid so every row and column matches its run-length clues. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.
Work through a collection of twelve 5×5 picture puzzles.
Something to practise
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Keep the objective visible.
Your goal
Shade the grid so every row and column matches its run-length clues. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Check the rules when you are unsure.
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.
Input guidance
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. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.
See how the rules apply
Clue 2 1 requires a run of two, a blank separator, and a run of one. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Take a moment to compare.
Check this before moving on
Do not merge two separate runs. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
