Pic-a-Pix

• Goal: Fill in cells to reveal a hidden picture based on number clues
• Row/Column Numbers: Show how many consecutive filled cells are in that row/column
• Multiple Numbers: Indicate separate groups of filled cells with at least one empty cell between them
• Left Click: Fill a cell (black)
• Right Click: Mark a cell as definitely empty (X)
• Click Again: Clear a cell back to empty

Start with Large Numbers: Look for rows/columns with large numbers or many groups - these are often easier to place initially.

Edge Logic: If a number is more than half the row/column length, some cells must be filled regardless of position.

Cross-Reference: Use completed rows to help solve columns and vice versa. The intersection of constraints often reveals definite cells.

Mark Empty Cells: Use right-click to mark cells you know are empty - this helps visualize the remaining possibilities.

Work Systematically: Focus on one row or column at a time, but switch when you get stuck to gain new information.
