Chromata
Read full descriptionHide full description
A code is deduced, never guessed. One secret code. Five colors. One certainty: everything can be deduced. Chromata is a solo logic deduction game. A code hides behind three, four or five colors, each carrying a value from 1 to 5. You don't guess it — you prove it. HOW IT PLAYS Each turn, three statements are offered to you — with no verdict attached. "Iris is greater than Cobalt." "The sum of Sulphur and Amber is less than 5." You pick one. Only then does the game reveal whether it is true or false. And that is the whole point: a false statement teaches you exactly as much as a true one. If "Iris > Cobalt" is false, then Iris ≤ Cobalt. There is no bad draw, no luck to suffer — only reasoning that is more or less efficient. Cross out impossible values on the grid, cross-reference, narrow it down. When one candidate is left, submit it. A BREAK MADE OF ATTENTION No endless feed, no autoplaying video, no banner blinking to keep you here. Chromata asks for the exact opposite of scrolling: a few minutes of continuous attention, a line of reasoning held from start to finish, and the very distinct satisfaction of having worked something out instead of having consumed it. A game lasts two to ten minutes. It plays in silence, offline, on a commute or in a quiet room. WHAT'S INSIDE • 3, 4 or 5-color codes — up to 3,125 possible combinations • Three difficulties, which change the nature of the clues served, not just their number • Eight families of statements: comparisons, sums, orderings, counts, positions, membership • A fully interactive elimination grid — your scratchpad, right on screen • Jokers, for when a game closes in on you • Divination mode: reroll a triplet of statements at the cost of points • Timed mode: reasoning under pressure, with a speed bonus under one minute • Full history: every game can be replayed, statement by statement, verdict by verdict • Seven ranks to climb, from Greyness to Divine Lagoon • English and French, interface and statements alike • No ads, no account, no data collection, no connection required FULL VERSION The game installs and plays for free: 3-color codes, easy and normal difficulty, unlimited games, tutorial included. A single purchase — never a subscription — unlocks 4 and 5-color codes, hard mode and timed mode.

Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: Slice & Dice at 3 against Chromata's 1. Slice & Dice also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.5). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
