Wrap 4.0 is a fresh take on the classic tile puzzle. Unlike traditional sliders with a missing tile, Wrap uses a full 4×4 grid of 16 tiles. Rows and columns are looped, meaning tiles wrap around seamlessly. Slide any row or column left, right, up, or down – the tiles move in a continuous circle, opening up entirely new strategies. Each puzzle starts with a reference image. Swipe the Shuffle bar to begin, and solve the puzzle by restoring the image. When you finish, swipe Next Level to continue. Puzzles are organized by increasing difficulty, so the challenge grows naturally as you play. Your progress is saved automatically, letting you stop and resume at any time.
Beacons

Beacons is a calm, beautiful logic puzzle about lighting up the coast. Each board hides one simple rule: place a single beacon in every row, every column, and every colored stretch of coastline — but no two beacons may stand next to each other, not even diagonally, or their beams would cross. There's no luck and no guessing. Every puzzle has exactly one solution, and every solution can be reached by pure deduction — so a win always feels earned. Start with the smallest coves, watch each beacon rule out the cells around it, and feel the whole board click into place. 400 HAND-VERIFIED LEVELS Work through 400 puzzles across four difficulties — Easy, Medium, Hard, and Expert, 100 each — that ramp up smoothly as your skills grow. Every single board is checked by a solver to guarantee a unique, logic-only solution before it ships. Clear a level to unlock the next, then come back to beat your best time. PLAY YOUR WAY • A clean, glowing dusk-harbor look that's easy on the eyes. • Tap to light a beacon, tap again to mark a rock, once more to clear. • Optional auto-mark to rule out cells for you. • Undo any move, or take a hint when you're stuck. • A built-in timer and your best time saved for every level. • Clashing beacons light up red, so mistakes are obvious and easy to fix. NO NONSENSE — JUST PUZZLES • 100% offline. No internet connection required — play on a plane, on the subway, anywhere. • No ads. Ever. • No in-app purchases. Everything is included. • No account, no sign-up, no login. • No tracking and no data collection — your progress stays on your device. Just you, the coastline, and a quiet puzzle to solve. Light every beacon and secure the coast.
