At the beginning the picture is hidden, leaving you with the task of reconstructing it from the clues(numbers on the side). | ||
Lists of numbers representing the number of black squares are added to each row and column. | |||
Each number represents a group of black squares so, for example, 3-2 means that on this row there is a group of 3 black squares to the left of a group of 2 black squares, with one or more white squares in between (There must be at least one white square between the groups, or the 3 and 2 would join up to become a 5). | |||
The numbers are always in order, so 3-2 means 3 black squares to the left of 2 black squares, and 2-3 means 2 to the left of 3. | |||
Fill in or cross out the tiles based on the clues given. When all the tiles have been correctly filled-in, you win. | |||
