Nonograms Katana: Sharpen Your Mind!
Nonograms, also known as Hanjie, Griddlers, Picross, Japanese Crosswords, Japanese Puzzles, Pic-a-Pix, "Paint by numbers," and other names, are captivating picture logic puzzles. These puzzles challenge you to color or leave blank cells in a grid based on numerical clues provided at the grid's edges, revealing a hidden image. The numbers serve as a form of discrete tomography, indicating the count of unbroken lines of filled squares in any given row or column. For instance, a clue like "4 8 3" signifies sets of four, eight, and three filled squares, in that order, with at least one blank cell separating each group.
Solving a nonogram requires discerning which cells should be filled (boxes) and which should remain empty (spaces). Marking spaces with a dot or a cross is crucial, as these help in later stages to determine the spread of clues. It's essential to rely solely on logic and avoid guessing, as a single mistake can compromise the entire solution.
