About
Two logic puzzles, shared by everyone, every day. Trail asks for one line through the whole grid; Orchard asks you to place the queens. Solve either one to keep your streak, and see how your time stacks up.
TRAIL
Start at checkpoint 1 and draw one continuous path across the grid. Visit every numbered checkpoint in order, pass through each cell exactly once, and never cross a wall — reach the final number to finish. The clock starts on your first move, so plan before you draw.
ORCHARD
Place the queens: one in every colour region, one in every row, one in every column, and no two touching, not even diagonally. Every board has exactly one solution, so it can always be reasoned out — no guessing.
• Two shared Daily puzzles for everyone — the same boards worldwide, with a day counter, one streak that covers both games, and Game Center leaderboards for Trail's time, difficulty, and streak
• Difficulty grows through the week: easy Mon–Tue, medium Wed–Thu, hard Fri–Sun — Trail from 5×5 to 7×7, Orchard from 6×6 to 8×8
• Unlimited mode for extra puzzles in either game at any difficulty — 3 free every day
• A full archive of every past Trail Daily
• Hints in both games: Trail reveals the next three cells of the solution, Orchard points out a misplaced queen or the next one to place — plus a backtrack counter and a first-move timer in Trail
• A new look of printed paper and ink, with a night mode for solving after dark — choose paper, night, or follow the system
• A home screen widget, restyled to match, shows your streak and today's status at a glance
• An optional daily reminder at a time you choose, skipped automatically on days you've already played
• Share cards for your results, satisfying haptics and sound
• Trail is also free to play on the web at puzzlealmanac.com — the same Daily puzzle, no app required

Orchard — a second daily puzzle Place the queens: one in every colour region, one in every row, one in every column, and no two touching, not even diagonally. A new board every day, next to Trail — and one streak covers both, so solving either daily keeps the day. A new look, too.
