2.7.0
September 12, 2026
The biggest update since launch. NEW WAYS TO PLAY • Puzzles — 24 positions with a win you can force, if you find it • Board shapes — Donut, Diamond, Cross, Pillars and Gates. Walls change which cells are corners, so the whole strategy shifts with them • Hints — two per game, showing the move the Expert would play • Offline play — local, vs-AI, campaign and puzzles all work with no connection, and your results sync when you are back A MUCH STRONGER OPPONENT • The Expert AI has been rewritten and now searches ahead properly instead of judging one move at a time • It reacts to how the game is going, and rings the cell it is about to take so you can see the move coming ONLINE • Correspondence games — up to 3 days a turn. Close the app and come back later; Your Games on the home screen keeps your place • Challenge a specific player from the leaderboard, and answer challenges from your inbox • Recent opponents, with your head-to-head record against each • Share a link that opens the app straight into your game • Rematch from the end of a game, win or lose POLISH • The board is clearer to read, and each side's orb count is now on screen as you play • Daily login streak, and achievement unlocks now tell you about it • The Ring/Silent switch is respected FIXED • Report an Issue and Suggest a Feature could stop the app responding • The leaderboard podium mislabelled placements and could move its crown between refreshes • Some screens showed "Rank #" with no number before you had finished a game
