GridSwan is the most popular Android application for solving logic puzzles, also known as griddlers, hanjie, nonogram, picross, kare karalamaca, Japanese crossword, cryptopics, or pic-a-pix. The objective of griddlers is to determine the positions of black or colored blocks by using number hints in the white grid. The end result of solving the puzzle is an image. GridSwan offers support for four types of griddlers puzzles: standard (black & white), colored, triangle, and multi griddlers, and features numerous free puzzles.

Solving Puzzles: Step-by-Step Strategy

1. Analyze Clues

Start by examining the clues for each row and column. Identify rows or columns with larger numbers since they can often be filled in first.

Look for rows or columns that have a clue that matches the total number of cells available; these can often be fully filled immediately.

2. Fill in Certain Cells

Use the overlap technique: If a row has a clue of "5" in a 10-cell row, you can fill in the middle cells since they must overlap.

Mark cells that cannot be filled with an "X" to keep track of empty spaces.

3. Use Process of Elimination

As you fill in certain cells, revisit other rows and columns to see if new information allows you to fill more cells.

If a clue cannot fit into a certain space due to already filled or marked cells, mark those spaces as empty.

4. Keep Track of Progress

Use the app's features to undo and redo actions as needed. This is particularly useful if you make mistakes or want to try different strategies.

Regularly check your progress and adjust your strategy based on newly filled cells.

    I really like it! The colors are so similar that I mix them up sometimes, and a few puzzles have more than one solution which changes small details in the picture. But it's still awesome! I love the wide range of pictures and sizes. It's great that you get 10 free hints for each picture, and even if you restart a puzzle, you still have 10 hints left.

    I liked how the puzzle was done. It would be easier to use on a tablet than on a phone as the grid is too small on the phone. It's tricky to touch the squares without making mistakes. It would be helpful to have a mode that stops you from marking a square that already has something in it. This way, accidental touches wouldn't mess up your game.

    This game is loaded with puzzles. I've been hooked on it for months and still enjoy it every time I play. It's perfect for passing some time, whether you have just a few minutes or hours to spare. The only downside is that it drains your battery pretty quickly, likely due to the ads popping up constantly. You can tackle the puzzle you're currently working on even without an internet connection, but you'll need to be online to access new ones. So yeah, expect your battery to take a hit whenever you're diving into this game.
