## What is Papaya Peg?

Can you leave just one peg standing?

Papaya Peg is a cheerful peg solitaire puzzle game for iPhone and iPad. Jump pegs or marbles over their neighbors, clear the board, and chase the satisfying one-piece finish.

Browse Classic Boards, Today's Challenges, Variant Boards, and Quests from a refreshed card chooser, then jump straight into the puzzle that fits your mood.

Play classic peg solitaire boards, larger variants, and calendar challenges:

- Triangle - a compact triangular board with quick rounds that fit nicely into short play sessions.
- English - the classic cross-shaped board. Jump horizontally or vertically and try to finish with one marble in the center.
- European - a wider expert-style board with more holes and a roomier challenge.
- Triangle: Six-Row and Triangle: Seven-Row - larger triangle boards that unlock as you solve.
- Daily Challenge - a shared board each day with saved progress and local streaks.
- Weekly Challenge - a harder solver-verified puzzle released each week.
- Quests - unlock opening challenge paths, replay cleared stages, and try for extra-satisfying one-peg finishes.

New in 1.7: Papaya Peg is now localized in Spanish. Menus, gameplay labels, Store text, High Scores, challenge pages, Quest copy, tips, and Settings have all been prepared for Spanish-speaking players.

Your progress can follow you across devices. Papaya Peg uses your own private iCloud account to keep Shared Papayas, classic results, Daily and Weekly results, and Quest progress in sync - no new account, just the iCloud you're already signed into. Offline play still works everywhere; sync catches up automatically once you're back online.

Papaya Peg includes optional move guides and available-move highlighting (Settings), first-play tips, swipeable board cards, undo and redo, an in-game Pause, local high scores, saved progress, optional Challenge Notifications for new Daily and Weekly boards, sound effects, and haptic feedback.

Stuck on a Daily, Weekly, or Quest puzzle? Tap the lightbulb Hint button for a free solvability check. If your current position can still be solved, reveal the recommended move with a Hint credit or a short rewarded video. Undo credits work the same way: watch a short video anytime - from the Store page or right from the undo button mid-game - to earn Papayas, shared across every board and challenge. Prefer not to watch a video? Papaya packs are also available to buy from the Store, and purchased Papayas sync across your devices through iCloud.

Game Center is optional. Enable it to share eligible scores and earned achievements with Apple Game Center, including eligible progress from offline play. Offline play still works without signing in.

No required accounts. Ad-supported, with non-tracking banner ads and optional rewarded videos you choose to watch for in-app rewards. Just a bright, tactile board puzzle you can play at your own pace.

Download Papaya Peg and see how close you can get to the perfect finish.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.7 — 2026-08-14

Papaya Peg 1.7 adds Spanish localization, new mascot moments, and several gameplay polish updates.

- New: Spanish localization across the app, including gameplay, Store, High Scores, challenge pages, Quests, Settings, and tips.
- New: the mascot now appears in more places, including Store, High Scores, stuck/no-moves moments, and completed-game celebrations.
- New: Hints are now available in Quests as well as Daily and Weekly Challenges.
- Improved: High Scores is cleaner, with recent results collapsed by default and zero-count assists hidden from score summaries.
- Improved: Daily and Weekly challenge pages can show completed status after iCloud sync from another device.
- Improved: challenge and Quest copy now reflects the current lightbulb Hint icon and the expanded Hint behavior.
- Improved: board transitions, Spanish button fit, and several localization edge cases have been polished.

Offline play still works without Game Center, iCloud, or any account.

### 1.6 — 2026-08-10

Papaya Peg 1.6 adds iCloud sync across your devices, a way to buy Papayas directly, and optional Challenge Notifications.

- New: Papaya Peg now syncs your progress across your devices using your own private iCloud account - Shared Papayas, classic results, Daily/Weekly results, and Quest progress all stay current everywhere you play. Offline play still works exactly as before; sync happens automatically once you're back online, and Papaya Peg only asks you to choose which game to keep on the rare occasion two devices both have an unfinished game on the same board.
- New: Papaya packs are now available to buy from the Store, in addition to earning Papayas by watching a short video. Purchased Papayas sync across your devices through iCloud.
- New: optional Challenge Notifications let you know when a new Daily or Weekly board is ready, with a separate toggle for each and a countdown to the next one in Settings.
- Improved: swiping up or down to move between board groups is noticeably easier and more reliable.
- Improved: watch-video and Store prompts now show the exact Papaya reward and destination up front.
- Improved: iCloud sync reliability, including a fix for a rare case where two devices syncing around the same moment could show a sync error instead of finishing normally.

Offline play still works without Game Center, iCloud, or any account.

### 1.5 — 2026-07-30

Papaya Peg 1.5 adds a new Hint feature, reworks how Undo credits work, and cleans up the in-game button row.

- New: a Hint button for Daily and Weekly Challenges. It checks for free whether your current position can still be solved, then reveals the recommended move for a Hint credit or a short rewarded video. The revealed move stays highlighted on the board - as an animated path in its own distinct color - until you make a move or undo, instead of disappearing on a timer, and the Hint button holds while a hint is showing or no legal moves remain.
- New: Undo access is now a shared, ad-earned credit economy used everywhere - watch a short video from the new Inventory page, or right from the undo button when you run out mid-game, to earn more credits usable on any board or challenge. Hint and Undo credits each cap at 99 stored at a time; the Inventory page explains it plainly once a wallet is full instead of letting a watched video go to waste.
- New: an in-game Pause button that hides the board and stops the clock; Hint, Undo, Redo, and Reset are held while paused so a paused game can't quietly change.
- New: the Quests group card now shows a live spinning preview of your Triangle and English boards, matching Classic and Variant Boards.
- Improved: the game screen's button row is decluttered - available-move highlighting and move guides are now Settings toggles (off by default, applied to every game) instead of in-game buttons, and Hint now uses a lightbulb icon with its own credit-count badge, freeing space on smaller iPhone screens.
- Improved: Daily and Weekly Challenge lobbies show both your current and best-ever solve streak, and a bug where the streak incorrectly reset to zero the moment a new day began is fixed.
- Improved: High Scores now shows one clean, merged ranked list per board instead of separate categories for each undo setting, with hint usage now shown alongside undo count; existing scores are combined automatically.
- Improved: the in-game board no longer appears off-center on smaller iPhone screens.
- Fixed: a missing icon on the Undo credit prompt and Inventory page now displays correctly.
- Behind-the-scenes reliability fixes to Game Center, ad loading, and ad configuration validation.

### 1.4 — 2026-07-12

Papaya Peg 1.4 is a polish and quality release.

- Smoother, more reliable card swiping in the game chooser.
- Refined title bar and card presentation.
- Better battery efficiency from lighter background and board-preview animations, and improved support for Reduce Motion.
- Improvements to Quest accessibility, including VoiceOver support for selecting individual Quest stages.
- Various copy and layout polish across challenge cards and results.
- Behind-the-scenes reliability fixes to undo limits and best-result tracking.

Offline play still works without Game Center or any account.

### 1.3 — 2026-06-30

Papaya Peg 1.3 adds more reasons to come back for one more solve.
