## What is RULE?

You are shown two or three examples. Something happens in each of them — the same thing, every time. Nobody tells you what.

Then you are shown one more, unfinished, and four ways it could end. Only one of them follows the rule.

That is the whole game. No timers, no lives, no streaks, no penalty for being wrong. Just the quiet moment where you see it.

NINE WORLDS, 240 HANDMADE PUZZLES

CHANGE — things become other things
POSITION — where something sits is the message
COUNT — how many is the answer
DIRECTION — orientation carries meaning
INSIDE — what contains what
MIRROR — reflection and symmetry
SEQUENCE — order that keeps going
RULES — two rules at once
EXCEPTION — a rule can leave something out

Each world takes one idea and goes as far as that idea can go.

EVERY PUZZLE IS PROVED

Before a puzzle reaches you it is tested against a catalogue of 556 rival rules. If any of them explains the same examples while pointing at a different answer, the puzzle is not shipped. That is why a hard puzzle here is never a guess: there is exactly one answer you can defend, and when you see it you will know.

A NEW RULE EVERY DAY

One Daily Rule, the same for everyone, free forever — whether or not you ever buy anything.

ENDLESS

Puzzles built on your own phone and proved by the same code before you see them, for as long as you want them. No two runs are alike.

A HINT THAT DOES NOT SOLVE IT

Every puzzle has one hint. It tells you where to look, never what to think. Hints are free everywhere, and using one takes nothing away from you.

NOTHING TO INTERRUPT YOU

No ads. No account. No sign-in. No notifications. No timer, no score, no rank, no leaderboard, no streak to protect. Nothing is collected about you, and there is no server to collect it. The whole game works offline.

WHAT IS FREE, AND WHAT IS NOT

Free: the first three worlds — 60 puzzles — the Daily Rule, and every hint.

One payment, once, opens the rest: the remaining six worlds and their 180 puzzles, Endless, the archive of every rule you have discovered, and the full statistics. No subscription. Nothing else to buy, ever.

IF YOU BOUGHT RULE BEFORE IT WAS FREE

You keep everything, automatically, with nothing to restore and nothing to pay. It is already yours.

Built for VoiceOver and for every text size, from the smallest to the largest.
