THE DAILY NONOGRAM
One picture a day. Solved by logic alone.
Inkgrid is a daily nonogram, hand-drawn and proven to have exactly one solution. No ads, no account, no guessing, and a streak that waits for you until tomorrow.
A new puzzle every day at midnight, your time.
HOW IT WORKS
Numbers in. Picture out.
-
Read the clues
Each number is a run of filled cells in that row or column, in order. A row marked 3 3 holds two runs of three, with at least one gap between.
-
Fill and cross
Click or tap to fill a cell. Right-click, or switch to Cross on a phone, to mark a cell you know is blank. Drag to paint a whole run. Undo anything.
-
Watch it appear
Fill the last right cell and the grid lets go. The crosses fade, the lines fall away and the picture is yours, with its title and your time.
WHAT'S INSIDE
Everything a solver wants. Nothing they don't.
-
Exactly one solution.
Every picture is checked by a line solver and a solution counter before it ships. If logic can't finish it, it isn't in the book.
-
Play your way.
Mouse, touch or keyboard. Arrows to move, Space to fill, X to cross. Drag to paint runs without wrecking your crosses.
-
Undo without fear.
Every stroke is one step back. Redo, Clear, and Ctrl+Z all work the way your hands expect.
-
A streak that's fair.
Solve today's puzzle on its day to keep it going. The count waits until tomorrow, so it never looks broken at breakfast.
-
An archive that turns into a collection.
Miss a day? Every past puzzle is there. Solved ones show their picture; unsolved ones stay hidden, so nothing is spoiled.
-
Quiet by design.
No ads, no sign-up, no hints, no mistake-checking. Your progress and times live in your browser and nowhere else.

RUN YOUR OWN
Your puzzles, your name.
Inkgrid is built to be adopted. The name lives in one constant and the pictures live in one file,
# for ink and . for paper. A test runs every picture through the solver and fails
if any of them has a second solution, so a puzzle magazine, a library or a club can publish its own daily
grid without ever shipping a broken one.
