### 5/5 — Fantastic daily puzzle game

*2026-08-03*

I’ve never done a review on here but I had to for this one. 

I always like having a daily puzzle game for my short commutes but I run into the issue with most where you eventually “solve” them. They aren’t a challenge anymore because you know every trick they’ll throw at you and you’re done immediately.

You’ll catch some tricks with this game, but there’s usually so many ways they can make you uncertain about a move and change how you think about a puzzle. It can sometimes have a little trial and error, but not much and it has an undo that helps make retrying easy.

Love this game.

### 5/5 — Great puzzler!

*2026-07-31*

An ideal mobile puzzle game. The mazes are satisfying and rewarding to solve, but rarely punishingly difficult. The recent achievement update is also wonderful!

### 5/5 — A rare genuinely good iOS game

*2026-07-14*

Generous free-to-try system. Scratches the same kind of itch as picross and (to a lesser extent) sudoku and minesweeper type games.

### 5/5 — Five Stars!

*2026-06-21*

Love this game! A little tricky to figure out at first but there’s a lot of depth to the puzzles and tricks to pick up. Very relaxing vibes and climbing the leaderboards is fun

### 5/5 — My new favorite game!!!

*2026-05-31*

It’s a great mix of challenge and fun!  Get to understand the tutorials and use hints when you need.  I’m definitely hooked - so far have completed 490 of 500 Medium levels and 320 of the Hard levels.  I play it every day!

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2026-05-30*

This hurt my brain

### 5/5 — Hedgemaze? More like Hedge-amazing

*2026-05-30*

Great puzzle game to pick up for 5 minutes or to grind for hours improving times.
Everyday fun racing for the top spot on the daily challenge. 
I’ve sunk 30+ hours into these puzzles and I feel like I’m still learning new tricks to speed up my solves.

 100% recommend!

### 5/5 — Can’t get enough

*2026-05-29*

This game is a great mixture of challenging, puzzle and fun.  You’ll have to pry this game out of my cold dead hands 😂

### 5/5 — Fun challenging game

*2026-04-21*

This game is similar to Sudoku but more fun and just the right amount of challenge. It’s relaxing to go through the levels and I enjoy the competitive edge of the leader board and beating my own stats.
