## What is Rumba?

Rumba is the daily Binairo+ puzzle for everyone who loves Takuzu, Binoxxo and binary logic. Simple rules, deep thinking, and a fresh grid waiting every morning.

How to Play: fill the grid with two symbols. Follow the rules:
1. Every row and column holds an equal number of both symbols.
2. Never more than two identical symbols side by side.
3. "=" joins cells that match, "x" joins cells that differ.
4. Every puzzle has exactly one solution, so you never have to guess.

Features:
- Daily Puzzle: a new grid every day, in the difficulty you pick.
- Weekly Challenge: a longer puzzle with no timer and no ranking. Take the whole week.
- 39 Puzzle Packs: five tiers from Beginner through Advanced, Expert and Wizard up to Genius. Replay any pack whenever you like.
- Grids from 6x6 to 24x24: start small, then take on boards most binary puzzle apps never offer.
- Hints That Teach: the solver explains the technique behind each move, from pairs and gaps to forced triples and chain reactions, so you improve instead of just getting unstuck.
- Strategy Guide: Rules, Basics and Advanced chapters, plus an interactive tour that walks you through your first grid.
- Play With Friends: invite friends, compare times head to head, and climb the global leaderboards.
- Streaks: build a run of daily solves, and recover one if life gets in the way.
- Make It Yours: swap the board symbols for 10 icon sets including sun and moon, animals, nature and food.
- Built for Comfort: dark theme, optional timer, quick saves, undo, redo, highlight marks, pinch to zoom, and full offline play.

Why Rumba?
Binairo, Takuzu, Binoxxo, Binero. Whatever you call it, this is binary logic done properly: hundreds of grids, a solver that actually teaches, and a new challenge every morning.

### 4/5 — Disgusting ads

*2026-07-25*

There is nothing to be said against this game. It is very well made and very entertaining. One star is subtracted, though for a certain type of ads:
Actually I do understand the necessity of ads, and them being annoying is part of their effectiveness. In fact this game uses them comparatively sparingly. However, what I cannot understand is, how on earth somebody would assume that I, playing an arcade game would be interested in some other game where people are shot or stabbed, a little girl freezes almost to death, or some king falls into a pit of lava. The scenes displayed between my games are sometimes nothing but cruel and disgusting and sometimes make me want to delete the whole thing altogether. 
Avoid those ads and you get the full five stars from me!

**Developer response:** Hi, I hear you on those ad scenes, they really don't match the cozy puzzle vibe I'm going for. Sadly I don't get to handpick the ads (they come from an external network), and with millions of new creatives rolling in, blocking the bad ones is a bit like playing whack-a-mole 😅 I do block whole categories where I can. Really happy to hear you're enjoying the game itself, thanks for playing! ❤️

### 5/5 — Super jeu

*2026-07-22*

J’aurais aimé que le premier jeu du pack Wizard soit accessible pour pouvoir acheter le pack en parfaite connaissance de cause

### 5/5 — ☀️🌙

*2026-07-22*

I came over from linked in playing Tango, and I am extremely satisfied with this app- I might even in the future support it further when I’m financially able. (Also that required ads are just ads for the subscription? Honestly it’s so nice to not have some unrelated ad before my calm puzzle time)

### 5/5 — amazing game

*2026-05-16*

amazing game 10/10 easy to learn and wizard levels are really fun and addictive!!

### 5/5 — 갓겜

*2026-03-22*

진짜 쩌는 겜이다.

### 5/5 — 넘재밋어여

*2026-03-13*

매일 퍼즐 좀만 더 어려웟음 좋겟어여

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요 강yhae님! 별 5개 리뷰 진심으로 감사드립니다! 제 퍼즐 게임을 매일 재미있게 즐겨주셔서 1인 개발자로서 정말 뿌듯하고 기쁩니다 ❤️

데일리 퍼즐이 조금만 더 어려웠으면 좋겠다는 피드백 잘 읽었습니다. 남겨주신 리뷰를 바탕으로 앞으로 게임을 더 개선할 수 있도록 노력해 보겠습니다!

### 1/5 — Gutes Konzept, Forced Triple machen aus Können ein Glücksspiel

*2026-03-01*

Schade

### 5/5 — Lovely puzzle game

*2026-02-22*

Lovely puzzle game. The creators obviously put a lot of thought into making it peaceful and enjoyable. My one complaint is that there are levels where you have to guess, then backtrack if you get it wrong. I prefer where it’s all solvable by deduction. But they’re clear about it in the tutorials so it’s not misleading. Overall happy with the game!

**Developer response:** Hi Taratrax! Thank you for the 5 stars and your kind words! ❤️ I'm really glad you find the experience peaceful and enjoyable.

I totally understand your preference for pure deduction. Unfortunately, the core game principle makes it incredibly difficult to create really hard levels without it. That's why the backtracking is needed, though I made sure to limit it to a maximum of 3 steps to keep it from getting too frustrating!

Thanks for playing and for your support ✌️😊

### 5/5 — A beautiful and clever game to unplug my mind

*2026-01-31, version 1.3.0*

I really enjoy this app. The interface is intuitive, clean, and beautiful, which makes the whole experience very pleasant. I’ve noticed one or two small UI bugs here and there, but nothing that affects the gameplay or the fun at all.

One funny bug I came across was in the Journey tab inside Friends 😂 When you open Journey and select a game, the year shown under the weekday is completely wrong, it says 1920 hahaha 🤭 (honestly, 1420 would have been even cooler, but all good!).

Anyway, sometimes all I need to disconnect my mind is a game that actually makes me think, and this one does exactly that.

Thank you for developing a game that helps me slow down, focus, and think. 😬🧠

### 1/5 — Literally unplayable

*2025-12-24, version 1.2.6*

I bought the super wizard pack and now I can't even play daily or weekly puzzles without giving them more money or watching an ad. What a scam.
