Gridflow is a logic puzzle that appears daily โ quiet, precise, and without distraction. Connect numbered nodes with bridges.

In the end, the entire network must be connected. Easy to learn. Hard to master. FOUR DIFFICULTIES. EVERY DAY. ALL OF THEM. Easy (5ร5) โ Two minutes of focus. Perfect for the morning. Medium (7ร7) โ Challenging without being frustrating. Hard (9ร9) โ When you really want to step outside your comfort zone. Expert (11ร11) โ No mercy. For those who want it that way.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Cagedoku at none against Gridflow's 1. Cagedoku also leads on device support (4 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15 vs 17.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
