Medium

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 is filled — mark those first.
Watch for lone single clues. A clue of just 1 boxed in by solved lines can often be pinned down early using the cells already fixed around 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.

This puzzle is a 20×20 grid. For the full method, edge logic, and tougher techniques once you're ready to level up, read our complete guide to nonograms and advanced nonogram techniques.

About This Puzzle

This puzzle's silhouette combines a wide, scalloped dome with a slender pole and a squared-off hook — good practice for tracking a stepped curve across several columns before switching to a long, thin vertical run. Can you guess what it is before you finish solving?
