WA_Puzzler: Sadly it is time for this series to be put to bed. I had fun making the puzzles and putting the series out there all those years ago, and it was the first serious bit of geoart in Western Australia. The maintenance has been on thankless task though, so au revoir WAGB Arrow.

JAPANESE CROSSWORDS

Japanese crosswords, also known as nonograms or pixel puzzles, are puzzles which have pictures encoded in numbers. The aim of these puzzle is to restore this pictures in full.

Japanese crosswords can be of two types – black and white and colour. In black and white crosswords the picture contains only two colours – black (we paint using this colour) and white (background colour). In colour crosswords the picture is reproduced by several colours against white background.

A field of a Japanese crossword is lined both horizontally and vertically with lines. The picture in a Japanese crossword is formed by painting separate squares (central part) using necessary colour. While an unpainted square is supposed to be white.

Numbers are shown on the left and above the crossword.These describe the groups of painted squares (which go in sequence, no blanks) horizontally and vertically accordingly. The order of these numbers describes the order of location of these groups, but it is unknown where each group starts and finishes (in fact it is the task of the puzzle to define their location). Each separate number means a separate group of the given size (i.e. number 5 – means a group of five painted squares in sequence, 1 – a group of only one painted square). In black and white crosswords we always paint the square black, in colour ones – we paint the square using the colour by which the number is marked. Between the groups of one colour there should be at least one unpainted square (otherwise they would make one group). Between groups of different colour there can be no empty squares.

Sounds complicated?

They can be extremely complex, or relatively straight forward, like the one below.
