Scale Garden is Futoshiki, the classic Japanese logic puzzle, grown into a cozy garden. Place snails, turtles, walkers, bikes, cars and trains so every row and column holds each one exactly once. Arrows between the squares always open toward the faster one. That is the whole game. It starts gentle and gets wonderfully tricky. EASY TO LEARN A guided first puzzle teaches everything in about a minute. Boards start at a friendly 3x3 and grow to a satisfying 6x6, one step at a time. PURE LOGIC, NEVER A GUESS Every level is checked to be solvable by reasoning alone. The answer is always on the board, waiting to be found. THINK IN PENCIL Jot notes on any square to try ideas before you commit. When you want a nudge, a hint fills in one correct square and lets you carry on. CALM BY DESIGN No timers. No rush. Soft colors, gentle sounds and a garden of friendly animals. Play offline anywhere: a few quiet minutes with your coffee, or a whole afternoon. FEATURES • Levels that grow from easy 3x3 to expert 6x6 • Every puzzle solvable by pure logic • Pencil notes and helpful hints • A guided tutorial that teaches as you play • Works offline, no internet needed • No timers Pull up a chair in the garden. The snails are waiting.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Tic Tac Toe at none against Scale Garden's shown. Tic Tac Toe also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Scale Garden's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 19 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
