Zotz! is an enjoyable time-waster, a form of perceptual practice, good for training the brain and the eyes; there is no timer and no score, no pressure, just a simple challenge waiting for you whenever you like. The game supposes a deck of cards, where each card has four attributes, and each attribute on any given card has one of three possible values: Number (one, two, or three), Color (red, blue, or green), Fill (solid, hazy, or empty), and Shape (diamond, oval, or rectangle). All you have to do is to spot, amongst the visible cards, any three cards which, for each attribute, are either all identical or all different. Colors, middle fill type, and number of cards in the layout can all be customized. Full instructions, with examples, are included.

Zotz! is free to download; 6 takes! costs $1.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Zotz! holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 6 takes! has 29 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Zotz!'s written reviews are positive against 70% of 6 takes!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Zotz! ships an update every 11 months, 6 takes! every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
