About

Tatamo

Features
Read full description

Tatamo is a cozy Shikaku puzzle set in a quiet tatami room. The rules are simple, the calm runs deep: divide the whole board into rectangular tatami mats so that each mat covers exactly one number — and that number equals how many squares the mat contains. Every puzzle has one tidy solution. No timer shouting at you, no lives to lose. Drag to lay a mat. Get it right and it settles into place with a warm, dyed finish. Get it wrong and it simply waits for you. Fill the whole room and Tatamo — your perpetually grumpy tanuki caretaker — grudgingly approves. WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT • Pure logic — solvable by reasoning alone, never guesswork • Hand-crafted tatami art and traditional Japanese dye colours • A fresh room every game — gentle for beginners, deep for veterans • Play offline, anywhere — no account, no sign-up • Track your best solve time and climb the leaderboard Slip off your shoes, slide the door shut, and tidy the room. Tatamo is waiting (impatiently).
