Nonograms: Pixel Garden

About Nonograms: Pixel Garden

Nonograms: Pixel Garden is a coloured nonogram game built entirely on logic — no guessing, no timer, no competition. Fill cells according to numbered clues along rows and columns, and a picture gradually takes shape from the cells themselves, then settles into its place in the garden. The collection spans 168 pictures ranging from compact 5×5 grids to expansive 30×30 grids, organised across 14 garden corners, with a fresh daily 10×10 puzzle added every day.

Large, high-contrast numbers keep the clues readable at a glance. A big grid opens already zoomed in, and a "Whole field" view lets you see the entire puzzle at once.

How to Play Nonograms: Pixel Garden: Fill Cells, Reveal Pictures

Each number beside a row or column represents the length of a consecutive run of filled cells, and its colour identifies the colour of that run. When multiple numbers appear, they describe multiple runs in that exact order. Runs sharing the same colour must have at least one empty cell between them.

Game Modes

• Random puzzle: choose your preferred size and difficulty
• Daily puzzle: a new 10×10 puzzle every day
