## What is Shikaku?

Squarely is a calm, beautifully simple logic puzzle. Split the grid into rectangles: each one holds exactly one number, and its area equals that number. That's the whole rule — and it gets surprisingly deep.

THREE FRESH PUZZLES EVERY DAY
Easy, Medium and Hard, the same for everyone in the world. A few minutes each — a perfect coffee break.

HAND-MADE FEEL, NEVER A GUESS
Every puzzle has exactly one solution and can be solved by logic alone. Difficulty is graded by the techniques it needs, so Easy is truly easy and Hard is truly satisfying.

BUILD A STREAK
Play daily to grow your streak. Missed a day? A streak shield has your back.

SHARE YOUR SOLVE, NOT THE ANSWER
Share a spoiler-free result card, or a short replay video of your solve with its little soundtrack.

PICTURE WORLDS
Solve a board and its pieces paint a hidden pixel picture. Travel through 23 worlds and 330 pictures, earn three stars on each, pick up new twists like fog and locks along the way and race the boss at the end. The first world is free.

RACE YOUR FRIENDS
Race up to three friends on the same puzzle, live, with Game Center. Nobody around? Friendly computer players fill the empty seats. Send any puzzle as a link: friends can play it right away, even without the app.

MADE TO FEEL GOOD
Smooth drag-to-draw, satisfying sounds and haptics, home and lock screen widgets, Siri and Shortcuts, Game Center leaderboards, dark mode and iPad support.

NO ADS. NO PRESSURE. WORKS OFFLINE.

SQUARELY PLUS (optional)
The daily puzzles and Endless Easy and Medium are free forever. Plus adds Endless Hard, Expert 12×12 and Marathon 15×15, the full archive of past puzzles, 3 streak shields a month, unlimited hints, color themes, sound packs and detailed stats. Without Plus you get 3 free hints a day, and small hint packs if you want more.

• Hints now come in two steps: first a gentle nudge toward the number to look at next, then the piece itself if you still want it.
• After each solve, a stamp marks one true thing about it: a new best, a solve with no mistakes, your first Hard without hints.
• Key move: see the placement that cracked the puzzle, replayed from your own solve.
• Home is now a notebook page for today, and the tutorial is one short board.
• On iPhone Duo and on iPad in landscape, the game and today’s page spread out into two columns.
