Daxtle

Simple to learn. Surprisingly deep to master. Daxtle is a beautifully minimalist puzzle game that will twist your brain in the best way. Slide colored blocks across clever, irregular grids to land each one on its matching target โ€” sounds easy, right? Think again. Here's the twist: every block has a fixed direction โ€” it can only ever move one way. A single swipe moves all blocks sharing that direction at once, and a moving block will push anything in its path. One wrong swipe can ruin it all. Think ahead and plan your chain reactions. Made a mistake? Double-tap to undo โ€” anytime, as many times as you need. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT - 85+ hand-crafted levels across 6 chapters โ€” each one a unique, satisfying puzzle to solve - Challenge mode: race against a 90-second master timer โ€” each solve adds bonus time. How far can you streak? Compete on the Game Center leaderboard! - Surprising mechanics introduced chapter by chapter: multi-color blocks, destroy blocks, and teleport portals keep things fresh - Gorgeous, calm design โ€” no ads, no timers, no distractions - Every single level is free from the start โ€” nothing locked behind a paywall - Undo anytime with a double-tap โ€” experiment freely - Hints when you need a nudge - Light, Dark, and Auto theme โ€” plays beautifully day or night - Satisfying haptic feedback and an original soundtrack that makes every solve feel great - Works offline โ€” no internet required SUPPORT INDIE GAMES Every level, every mode โ€” totally free. If you enjoy it, a one-time $1.99 supporter upgrade unlocks 5 hints every 8h and helps keep the game alive. No subscriptions, no ads โ€” just an indie dev building puzzles with love.

About

Pyramind

Features
Read full description

Twelve pieces. Fifty-five cells. Two puzzles, one shape language. Pyramind is a quiet polyomino puzzle. You're given the same twelve pieces โ€” five tetrominoes and seven pentominoes โ€” and asked to fit them, exactly, into a five-row flat grid or into a five-layer pyramid. The same pieces, two completely different problems. The pyramid is the harder one. The grid is the welcoming one. Both reward patience. There are sixteen built-in challenges across four difficulties, from First Steps to Pure Mind. Every challenge starts with a few pieces already placed, so you're never staring at an empty board with no idea where to begin. As you solve them, your best times stay with you. A Daily Challenge gives you one carefully chosen puzzle each morning โ€” different every day, the same one for everyone playing that day. When you want variety without lookup, Surprise Me hands you a random puzzle pitched at any difficulty. When you want to wander, Sandbox lets you place pieces freely on either board. What Pyramind is not: a game with energy bars, in-app purchases, ads, ranked leaderboards, or accounts. There is no network. There is no analytics. The Data Not Collected label on this page is literal. Pyramind exists on your device, plays on your device, and forgets nothing โ€” and remembers nothing about you. Features โ€ข 12 polyomino pieces, identical across both boards โ€ข Flat 5ร—11 grid for the welcoming version โ€ข 3D pyramid with five stacked layers for the harder version โ€ข 16 hand-curated challenges (Easy, Medium, Hard, Master) โ€ข Daily Challenge โ€” one shared puzzle each day โ€ข Surprise Me โ€” endless random levels โ€ข Sandbox โ€” free placement, your own ideas โ€ข Stats and personal best times stay private to your device โ€ข Dark, minimal interface designed for evenings โ€ข No accounts, no ads, no tracking, no network For people who want a puzzle to think with, not a puzzle to grind.
