Quing

Quing is a calm logic puzzle. Place one crown in every colored region — but no two may share a row or column, and they can never touch, not even diagonally. Every puzzle has exactly one solution, and every solution can be reached by pure logic. No guessing. Ever. WHAT'S INSIDE • 100 handcrafted levels, from gentle 5×5 boards up to demanding 9×9 • Five difficulty tiers — every board size starts easy and builds up • Daily Challenge — one fresh puzzle a day, the same one for everyone. Compare your time with friends and keep your streak alive • Master mode — unlocked once you finish all 100 levels. The hardest fair puzzles the game can generate, endlessly • Random puzzles in any size and difficulty, generated on your device • Achievements, best times and detailed statistics HINTS THAT TEACH Most puzzle games just show you the answer. Quing explains the next logical step: which region is trapped in a row, which cell can be ruled out, and why. Follow along and you'll learn to see it yourself — that's the whole point. BUILT TO FEEL GOOD • Tap to mark a cell, double-tap for a crown — or swipe across a row to rule out several at once • Undo, redo and a reset are always one tap away • Ten visual themes, from neon sci-fi to clockwork brass to soft candy • Gentle sounds and haptics you can switch off any time QUIET BY DESIGN No ads. No tracking. No account. No timers pushing you. Everything works offline, and your progress stays on your device. There is one optional Supporter Pack for people who'd like to support development — it unlocks three extra themes and nothing else. Every level, every mode and every feature is free, forever.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Quing at none against Minesweeper Classic's shown. Minesweeper Classic's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
