What Nondle is
Nondle is a daily logic puzzle that combines deduction with a picture-reveal twist. Each day you get three nonogram grids—a 6x6 Mini, a 10x10 Daily, and a 12x12 Challenge—and your goal is to fill the correct cells to uncover a hidden image. The puzzle set refreshes at midnight Eastern, so there's always a fresh challenge waiting.
How to play
You read the numbers along each row and column; each number tells you how many filled squares appear in that line, and separate groups of filled squares must have at least one empty square between them. You fill cells, mark cells as empty with an X, or clear cells as needed. When a line is fully correct, Nondle locks it to prevent accidental misclicks. If you complete a line incorrectly, you add a 10-second penalty to your time. The timer only starts when you press Start, and pausing moves your run out of ranked competition. You can also drag to paint a line of filled or empty cells for faster solving.
Tips
- If you prefer to control every empty cell yourself, turn off the auto-mark option—it's saved on your device.
- Start the timer only when you're ready; pausing removes the run from ranked competition, so use it if you need a break.
