🖼 A hidden picture is waiting inside the grid. Use the numbers above each column and beside each row to work out which squares to fill in — the answer key sits at the bottom, fold it backward along the dotted line before you start.
A logic-grid picture puzzle (also called picross or griddlers). Use the number clues to fill in the correct squares and reveal the hidden image.
Each number tells you how many squares in a row to fill in that line, in order. A clue of 2 2 means: fill 2 squares, leave at least one blank, then fill 2 more.

How to Solve This Nonogram
Nonograms (also called picross, griddlers, or hanjie) are logic puzzles that hide a picture inside a grid of numbers:
Start with the biggest clues. A row or column clue close to the full width tells you the whole line (or most of it) is filled — mark those first.
Watch for lone single clues. A clue of just 1 sitting between two solved lines can often be pinned down early using the cells already fixed above and below it.
Work the overlap. When a clue number is more than half the line's length, the middle cells must always be filled no matter how the run shifts — mark those immediately.
Not sure where to begin? Here's exactly how Mr. Puzzle opens this grid. Rows are numbered top to bottom and columns left to right.
The widest part. Rows 5, 6 and 7 each have a clue of 15, the full width. Fill all three. Rows 1, 2 and 15 have no clue, so mark them blank.
The shrinking rows. Row 8 (13) gives you columns 3 through 13. Row 9 (11) gives you columns 5 through 11, and row 10 (9) gives you columns 7, 8 and 9.
The outside columns. Columns 1 and 15 have a clue of 3, and rows 5–7 already provide it. Mark the rest of both columns blank.
Row 4 (6 6). With columns 1 and 15 now blank, only 13 squares are left. Two runs of 6 plus the gap between them is exactly 13, so they fit only one way: columns 2 to 7 and columns 9 to 14.
Stuck? Click for a nudge
The heart is a mirror image left to right. Column 8 is the centre line, and the very bottom row with a clue (row 14, just 1) sits right on it.
Why It's Rated Easy
Three full rows, a steady staircase of shrinking clues, and perfect symmetry make this one of the most relaxing grids on the site. No scattered single squares and no guessing. A great one to print for someone trying nonograms for the first time.
Spoiler: what does this puzzle hide?
A simple, symmetrical heart shape — an ideal starting point for beginners still getting used to reading row and column clues, with no tricky gaps or scattered single squares to trip you up.
