ShipPuzzle is a logic puzzle based on the ship guessing game. It is played in a grid of squares that hides ships of different sizes. Numbers alongside the grid indicate how many squares in a row or column are occupied by part of a ship. In ShipPuzzle, an armada of ships is hidden in a square grid of 10×10 small squares. The armada includes one battleship four squares long, two cruisers three squares long, three destroyers two squares long, and four submarines one square in size. Each ship occupies a number of contiguous squares on the grid, arranged horizontally or vertically. The boats are placed so that no boat touches any other boat, not even diagonally. The goal of the puzzle is to discover where the ships are located. A grid may start with clues in the form of squares that have already been solved, showing a submarine, an end piece of a ship, a middle piece of a ship, or water. Each row and column also has a number beside it, indicating the number of squares occupied by ship parts in that row or column, respectively. This app has original engine which create a puzzle automatically. The player can enjoy this game for a very long or seemingly endless time.

The desk lamp is low, the corkboard is pinned with index cards, and one line-up of the night is true. Alibi is a daily logic-grid deduction puzzle set in a 1920s detective bureau — the classic zebra / Einstein-style elimination puzzle, dealt fresh every night. Every case pins four suspects, four rooms, four weapons and four times of the evening. Exactly one arrangement lines them all up, and a full sheet of clues sits beside a cross-reference grid of - and x cells. Read a clue, mark the grid: tap a cell to cycle blank → - → x, and every - auto-crosses the rest of its row and column, just like working a paper grid with a pencil. Cross out what the clues forbid, and the lone survivor in each row and column is the truth. When the whole board is pinned, close the case and name the culprit. The clue set is always complete and self-consistent, so straightforward elimination always reaches the one answer — there is never a guess, and never a puzzle without a solution. Right the first time is a clean solve; every wrong mark is counted against you. • One deterministic case at midnight, the same board for everyone in the world • A true logic grid: clues on the left, a -/x cross-reference grid on the right • Auto-crossing rows and columns do the pencil-work, so you can think • Name the culprit — the suspect matching the coroner's time of death • Streaks, a clean-solve rate, and a spoiler-free share card • Practice bench with unlimited fresh cases once the daily is closed • Entirely offline and private — nothing collected, ever Four suspects. One is lying. Work the board.
