Giraffic Jam

Features
Read full description

Giraffic Jam is a quiet logic puzzle about feeding giraffes. Each giraffe stands on a stack of hay. A taller giraffe hides every shorter one behind it, so from the edge of the board you only see some of them. The signs tell you how many. Stack the hay so that each row and each column holds every height exactly once. The first few boards are gentle. Then the signs start coming out, and you have to work the lines you still have a lot harder. EASY TO PICK UP Your first puzzle is a real board you solve yourself, with a little guidance along the way. It takes about a minute. Grids start at 3x3 and grow to 5x5. NO GUESSING Every level is checked before it ships, so reasoning alone will always get you there. When you are stuck, the answer is already on the board. HINTS THAT SHOW THEIR WORK A hint picks a square you can work out right now and lights up the sign and the line it came from. The next one is yours to find. TAKE AS LONG AS YOU LIKE No clock, no score, nothing counting down. Warm colours, soft sounds and a savanna drifting past behind the board. It all runs offline, so it is just as happy on a plane as on the sofa. WHAT IS IN THERE • Grids from 3x3 up to 5x5 • Every puzzle solvable by logic • Hints that explain themselves • A tutorial you play instead of read • Progress saves as you go • Works offline, no internet needed • No timers Read the signs. Stack the hay. The giraffes are waiting.
