Nonogram: Picture Cross

A nonogram — also called picross, griddler or picture cross — is a logic puzzle. The numbers along each row and column tell you how many squares to fill and in what order. Work it out line by line and a picture appears.

720 PUZZLES, SIX GRID SIZES
Start with quick 5x5 warm-ups and work your way up to 30x30 grids that take a proper sitting. 72 packs, 10 puzzles each, spread across 5x5, 10x10, 15x15, 20x20, 25x25 and 30x30. Every puzzle is hand-drawn rather than machine-generated, so what you uncover is always a recognisable object, animal or scene.

TWO WAYS TO PLAY
Classic — a wrong square costs a life. Three mistakes and the level is over.
Zen — no lives and no interruptions. Fill in whatever you like and press Check when you want to know how you are doing.

CONTROLS THAT STAY OUT OF THE WAY
• Line lock keeps a drag on a single row or column, so a slipped finger never paints a stray square
• Completed lines cross themselves out
• Undo any move
• Two-finger pinch and pan on the larger grids
• Hints for when a puzzle stops making sense

A NEW PUZZLE EVERY DAY
The daily puzzle changes at midnight and keeps a streak counter. The grid grows as the week goes on: a short one on Monday, a large one at the weekend.
