## What is Numoku?

Numoku brings the satisfying feel of a physical wooden sliding puzzle with your fingers. Slide tiles with a natural swipe gesture, arrange numbers in order, and feel every move with real haptic feedback — just like holding the real toy in your hands.

THE CLASSIC GAME
The sliding puzzle (also known as the 15-puzzle or 24-puzzle) is one of the world's most beloved brain teasers. Numoku captures its tactile charm with a gorgeous wooden board design, smooth spring animations, and authentic sounds that make every slide feel real.

SWIPE TO SLIDE — IT FEELS NATURAL
Swipe any tile toward the empty space to move it. The tiles respond with spring physics, subtle drag feedback, and a satisfying "thunk" when they land. It feels exactly like pushing a real wooden tile.
