Four photographs. One word connects them. That is the whole game, and it is harder than it sounds. Quartet is a word puzzle built one level at a time. Every one of its 200 levels was written by hand and its photographs chosen to sit exactly on the edge between obvious and impossible. The early levels show you a thing from four sides. The later ones stop being about objects at all: four unrelated scenes that share a property, and the connection is the puzzle. What is inside • 200 levels, each with four photographs and one answer • Three languages, and the language is real: English, Russian and Azerbaijani each have their own words and their own hints, not a machine translation of one list • A daily challenge, one puzzle a day, with a streak worth keeping • Duels: play the same photographs against a friend by room code, each of you in your own language, fastest answer takes the round • A global ranking, and the option to erase yourself from it whenever you like Hints, if you want them Reveal a letter, clear the wrong letters from the pool, or give up and see the word. Each costs points you earned by solving. Nothing is locked behind a purchase, because there are no purchases. What it does not do No account, no e-mail, no password. Nothing to buy. Your progress lives on your phone and on our server under a random identifier that is not connected to you, and there is a button inside the app that deletes it for good. Four photographs.
