@gametitle["Paint By Numbers" "paint-by-numbers" "Logic Game"]

The object of @game{Paint By Numbers} is to discover which cells
should be colored blue and which should be colored white.  Initially,
all squares are grey, indicating that the correct colors are not
known.  The lists of numbers to the left and above the grid are your
clues to the correct color of each square.  Each list of numbers
specifies the pattern of blue squares in the row beside it or the
column below it.  Each number indicates the length of a group of blue
squares.  For example, if the list of numbers beside the first row is
@onscreen{2 3} then you know that there is a contiguous block of two
blue squares followed by a contiguous block of three blue squares with
at least one white square between them.  The label does not tell you
where the blue squares are, only their shapes.  The trick is to gather
as much information as you can about each row, and then use that
information to determine more about each column.  Eventually you
should be able to fill in the entire puzzle.

Click on a square to toggle it between blue and gray.  Hold down a
modifier key (shift, command, meta, or alt depending on the platform)
to toggle a square between white and gray.  The third button under
unix and the right button under windows also toggles between white and
gray.

For some puzzles, hints are available.  Choose the @menuitem["Nongram"
"Show Mistakes"] menu item to receive the hints.  This will turn all
incorrectly colored squares red.
