## What is Zooku?

Zooku is a cozy logic puzzle starring the cutest animals on the App Store.

The rules are simple — mastering them is the fun:
• One animal in each row
• One animal in each column
• One animal in each color region
• No two animals ever touch, not even diagonally

That's it. No timers, no pressure. Just you, a grid, and that wonderful "click"
when the whole board falls into place.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
• Pure deduction — every puzzle is solvable with logic alone, never guessing
• Hundreds of handcrafted boards that grow from gentle 5×5 warmups to brain-bending 14×14 challenges
• Adorable pixel-art animals: cats, dogs, pandas, giraffes, birds, dolphins and frogs
• Mark mode (x) and place mode — deduce, eliminate, and drop your animal exactly where logic says it goes
• A built-in tutorial that teaches you by playing, not by reading
• Collect and equip 42 unique pixel avatars to make your profile yours
• Relaxing soundtrack and satisfying sound effects you can toggle anytime
• Play 100% offline — perfect for flights, commutes, or unwinding before bed

STAR BATTLE, REIMAGINED
If you love Sudoku, Queens, Nonograms, Tango or any logic grid, Zooku is your next
obsession — the classic Star Battle ruleset, wrapped in the warmest art you've seen.
