About

Musubi

Features
Read full description

Musubi is a cozy number puzzle about tying numbers together. Fill a 6 by 6 garden so every row and column holds the numbers 1 to 6, then follow the glowing sequence links, where joined tiles are always neighbours in counting and differ by exactly one. It is like Sudoku, but softer, with a gentle twist of its own. Every one of the 500 puzzles is hand-checked to have a single solution you can always reach with logic, never a guess. Start easy and grow into the challenge across five difficulties, from YASASHII (Gentle Start) to MEIJIN (Musubi Master), each with 100 levels. Play at your own pace with friendly tools: Undo, Erase, pencil Notes, Check to catch slips, and Hint when you are truly stuck. Five cute 3D friends, a Shiba, bunny, fox, tortoise and cat, cheer you on along the way. Features: • 500 hand-crafted, single-solution puzzles • Five difficulties, 100 levels each • Undo, Erase, Notes, Check and Hint tools • Cozy pastel garden art and five adorable mascots • A relaxing pace with no timers and no pressure • Free to play, with an optional one-time Remove Ads purchase • Universal: made for both iPhone and iPad No account, no login, and it plays offline. Just a quiet little garden of numbers, ready whenever you are. Tie the numbers together. You can do it!
