Pictolo
Solve the squares. Reveal the picture.
A cozy nonogram — also known as picross, griddlers, hanjie or paint by numbers. 258 hand-drawn puzzles, and every single one is solvable by logic alone.





Never a lucky guess
Every puzzle is verified to have exactly one solution reachable by logic alone. No 50/50 coin flips, no dead ends. If you're stuck, there is always a next move to find.
258 hand-drawn puzzles
Twenty themed chapters drawn by hand rather than churned out by a generator — from gentle 5×5 warm-ups up to chewy 15×15 challenges.
A new puzzle every day
A fresh daily picture cross each morning, a streak to keep alive, and streak freezes for the days life gets in the way.
Collect what you solve

Built to be comfortable
Drag to paint whole runs, auto-crossing lines, hints, undo, a forgiving hearts system and a full dark mode for late-night solving.
