Editor's Overview

Nonocross is a puzzle game application developed by Jared Forrest, packaged as a single Android APK of version 1.3 weighing in at 2.79 MB. The package targets Android 4.1+ and above.

Install Checklist

  1. Only download through the button on this page — never from third-party mirrors or shortened links, which are the most common way malware spreads.
  2. File size is a light 2.79 MB, so it installs quickly even on modest connections.
  3. This build is signed by "Jared Forrest" — always verify the developer name matches what's listed on the app's official store page before installing an update.
  4. After install, Android may prompt you to allow "Install from unknown sources" — approve only this one install, then revoke the permission in Settings > Apps > Special access.
  5. We link directly to the APK file or the publisher's repository; we do not modify the binary. Always run a virus scan after any sideloaded install.

About this app

What's Nonocross

Nonocross is a simple number puzzle game based around grids. The game is known by many names Nonograms, Picross, Griddlers, Pic-a-Pix, Hanjie and various others.

- Modes
There are two game modes. You can either practice on a pre-made grid, or you can play a randomly generated grid with custom parameters.

- How to play
The game is relatively simple, the number in each row/column corresponds to the number of filled cells in that row/column. So '3 5' at the beginning of a column means there is a block of 3 cell and a block of 5 cell in that column which are not touching. Once you have the grid in front of you it will all make sense

- Notes
