About Nonogram Nights

NONOGRAM NIGHTS is a spooky puzzler where you use logic to uncover a mysterious picture.

A nonogram, also known as a picross or griddler, involves using number clues to reveal a hidden picture in a grid of squares. The numbers along the side indicate how many consecutively shaded squares appear in each row or column. Solving the puzzle slowly unveils a mysterious image, but watch out—the pictures are spooky!

Every NONOGRAM NIGHTS puzzle is uniquely solvable, so you never have to guess for a solution.

Explore a haunted mansion in adventure mode. Solve 20+ spooky puzzles to defeat the monsters that lurk around every corner.

In random mode, you can play an infinite number of (solvable!) puzzles that are different each time.

The game also features a quick tutorial, an options menu, and some secrets!

This game is completely free. It has no ads.

[b]My Playtime:[/b] 2h (finished the game) [h1]Intro[/h1] [b]Nonogram Nights[/b] is a Halloween-themed Nonogram, featuring 25 puzzles ranging from 5x5 to 15x15. [b]Pros:[/b] - 25 puzzles - Hints in the option in case you are stuck [b]Cons:[/b] - Puzzle isn't saved if you leave the game midway - No reset button [b]Specs[/b] Intel Core i5-9300H 2.40GHz, 8GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 [h1]Should you play this game?[/h1] [b]Yes.[/b] [i]If you enjoy Nonograms or just want to play a short puzzle game, play this game.[/i] [hr][/hr] [h1]In-Depth Review[/h1] [h3]Visuals[/h3] The visuals aren't the best department in this game. The UI looks cheap, with only usability designed in mind. The game uses a font selection that is suitable for a Halloween theme, but the red color just hurts the eye. The background animation that shows some emojis might be a great idea on paper, but it doesn't match the spooky theme at all. [h3]The Game[/h3] [b]Gameplay[/b] The game offers a tutorial level that consists of a 5x5 puzzle for you to learn how Nonogram works. As someone who already knows the rules, it just serves as an extra puzzle for me, especially since the puzzle still gives a nice picture …

QUICK REVIEW: OVERALL: 9/10 DIFFICULTY: EASY TIME TO BEAT: Less than an hour or 2 (Ignore my Playtime, I left the game running overnight by mistake). OVERALL A fun little quick game I played to pass the time. Would recommend.

This is a pretty short game but I really enjoyed playing it! I really like the mouse controls, it was incredibly satisfying to be able to put x's without moving my cursor. (Checked received for free box because item is free on Steam as of this review and when I downloaded)

Many nonogram games have large boards and eventually recognizable pixel art that shows after you complete part of the pattern. This one does not. There is an "adventure" path that has preset puzzles that you solve that turn into the pixel art. But, the art is usually not recognizable until the post puzzle tells you what the image is. As a free game, I am ok with that. I think this one works really well for people new to nongrams. Ignore the image, and focus on the numbers. Once you complete the predesigned puzzles, you have a random mode that you can do that just gives you random puzzles with names like "spooky trash" or "colorful blood". In reality, they are just random puzzles without a predetermined pixel image. If you have never played a nonogram, give it a play.

If you want a free game with typical nonogram puzzles and nothing terribly fancy, this game will suit you for the most part. Pros: - Simple interface. Direct. Nothing over-the-top. No cheesy or cartoon-like graphics that make me feel like I am playing a game for a two-year-old. - You can choose your puzzle size on random puzzle mode. - No forced timer. - Nice background that makes it easy to see what you are doing and does not obscure the lines of the squares in any way. - No microtransactions. Just play the game. - A cross section highlights in light blue showing the row and column your mouse pointer is on. - You can click once and drag your mouse across squares to add X's or filled squares, depending on which mouse button you are pressing. You do not have to click each one individually. Cons: - When you finish a puzzle in one of the modes, the game is slow to respond and close out of the puzzle. - The pink squares hurt the ♥♥♥♥ out of my eyes. There is no option to change the color. - No auto-completion available. For example, when you fill in all of the necessary squares for a row or column, any remaining squares do not fill in with X's.…
