You know Minesweeper. You don't know this one. Hexasweeper hides twenty rule twists inside one hex grid: numbers that lie, mines that form a snake, numbers that measure how far a hexagon can see. Every board is built to be solved by logic alone. Never a guess. Classic teaches you the hex grid: six neighbours, three axes, numbers that mean something new. Then the rules start moving. 21 RULES, ONE GRID Ā· Star: numbers see two hexes out, along all three axes Ā· Liar: every number is off by exactly one Ā· Snake: the mines form a single winding path Ā· Eyesight: a number is how far the hexagon can see Ā· Negation: marked mines count minus one Ā· Parity: clues say even or odd, not how many Ā· Echo: only the cells two steps away count Ā· Wall, Partition, Dual, Outside, Triad, Triplet, Balance, Connected, Multiple, Sectors, Compass, Colour Census, Islands Each rule is a different way to think, and you learn it in a minute: a hands-on lesson has you find the provable mine before your first board, and the rule stays on screen while you play. Choose a rule and learn it step by step. NEVER A GUESS Every board, in every rule, is generated and checked so the information on screen is always enough. When you are stuck there is a deduction you have not seen yet, not a coin flip. WAYS TO PLAY Ā· Campaign: 110 hand-tuned boards in 25 chambers that teach the rules one at a time Ā· Today: one board a day, and the day picks the rule. Every rule, for everyone, with a streak to keep Ā· Endless: pick a size, a density and a rule Ā· Blitz: the same boards, against the clock Classic and Star are free. Unlock the remaining rules and premium campaign chapters with the optional All Rules one-time purchase. Optional timer, no ads, no subscription.

Every day, one board. Quilt is a cozy daily logic puzzle where every solve becomes a handmade patchwork. Split the grid into rectangles — square, wide, or tall — so every cell belongs to exactly one patch, with no gaps and no overlaps. The clues tell you each patch's size and shape. The rest is pure, calm logic. If you love Shikaku, nonograms, or a good number puzzle, this is your new daily ritual. ONE BOARD A DAY The same board for everyone, worldwide. Solve today's puzzle, build a streak, and watch your gallery fill with finished boards. Every board is guaranteed solvable by logic alone — you will never have to guess. BUILT TO FEEL CALM No pressure, no clutter, no ads. Just a clean grid, quiet haptics, and the warm-paper calm of a finished patchwork. Solve at your own pace. TWO WAYS TO PLAY Daily: one curated board every day, free for everyone, with a finished puzzle you can share and a streak to keep. Endless: unlimited boards in five sizes — from small to sprawling XXL grids you pinch-zoom across — and three difficulties, each with its own character. Daily is free forever. A one-time Heirloom purchase unlocks unlimited Endless play, your full gallery, the calendar to replay any past daily, every fabric palette, and every app icon. No subscriptions, no ads.
