Crack the Safe
Read full descriptionHide full description
Crack the Safe – Code Breaker Crack the Safe is a simple but addictive logic game where your goal is to break the secret code hidden inside a safe. Each player creates a 4-digit code, and the challenge begins. Take turns guessing the combination and use the hints from the safe to get closer to the correct answer. After every guess, the safe gives you feedback: • Green lights mean some digits are correct and in the right position • Red lights mean the guess is wrong But there’s a catch — the lights never show which digit is correct. You’ll have to rely on logic and deduction. Game Modes: - Play vs Bot Choose between three difficulty levels and practice your code-breaking skills. - Pass & Play Play with a friend on the same device. Set your codes and try to outsmart each other. - Online 1v1 Challenge real players online and see who cracks the safe faster. Can you break the code before your opponent does?

Every morning, a new case file lands on your desk in Caldmere — a fog-draped coastal New England town where everyone has something to hide. Theft, fraud, assault, arson, a body in the harbor. The crime changes. The pressure doesn't. Daily Sleuth is a two-minute daily ritual for true crime fans and puzzle lovers who want something sharper than a word game and moodier than a crossword. HOW IT WORKS Read today's case file — a short narrative with suspects, evidence, and a scene. Then make your accusation: Who did it. What they did. Where the evidence is hiding. Three questions, three suspects, one truth. Read closely — the file tells you everything you need, if you're paying attention. CLUES, IF YOU NEED THEM Stuck? Pull a clue. You have up to five — but every clue you use chips away at your score. The best detectives close the case clean. A NEW CASE EVERY DAY One case, every day, set in Caldmere. The difficulty climbs through the week — Monday is a gentle warm-up, Saturday is a proper noir gut-punch. Come back tomorrow for a fresh file. BUILD YOUR STREAK Solve the daily case and build your streak. The habit is the hook — miss a day and you start over. THE CALDMERE UNIVERSE Every case is set in Caldmere, a small town with a long memory. Recurring suspects, tangled histories, secrets that connect across cases. The more you play, the more you notice. Daily Sleuth is part of the Penumbra universe of mystery games. DESIGNED THE RIGHT WAY - One case a day — no endless scroll, no energy timers - No ads in the daily experience - Dark and light mode - A real mystery, written to be solved Read the file. Name the culprit. Close the case. Can you solve today's case? Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
