RULES:

Find all of the islands. The completed grid is a sea of Blue water with White islands. The numbers tell you how many White squares are in each island. Every island is isolated from every other island vertically and horizontally but they may touch diagonally. Any Blue water square can be reached from any other (i.e. they are connected). 2x2 Blue water blocks are NOT allowed (2x2 White island blocks are).

User Reviews

Some grids have incorrect solutions, requiring a water cell where there should be a land cell. This leaves a 2x2 square of water and an island one cell short. The buggy grids occur intermittently, not every game.

It randomly generates a Nurikabe, as advertised. Pros: -100% free. There’s ads, but they’re not intrusive. They only appear when you beat a puzzle. They’re short ads, too. -No hints but will show you the solution if you get stuck. Cons: -You can’t choose the difficulty. I’ve done 6 so far and all are pretty easy for experienced players. Difficulty seems to be increasing. Could be wishful thinking or due to an algorithm. -It pauses Spotify and iTunes music at the end of each puzzle and during ads.
