Quiet Pixels
Read full descriptionHide full description
Quiet Pixels is a cozy nonogram puzzle game. Each puzzle is a grid with number clues along the top and side. The clues tell you which cells to fill in. When the grid is right, the filled cells reveal a small picture. No timer in cozy mode, no streak penalty, no noise — just numbers and time to think. Five sizes: • Tiny — 5×5. A short break. • Small — 7×7. A quick warm-up. • Classic — 10×10. The puzzle you know. • Medium — 12×12. A slower read. • Wide — 15×15. A long sit. Twenty-five hand-authored puzzle packs, each themed and arranged for difficulty. Every puzzle is uniquely solvable — there's always exactly one answer, and you'll never need to guess. Each puzzle plays in Cozy mode (mistakes are blocked) or Strict mode (mistakes count). One daily puzzle picked at random across all five sizes. Seven languages: English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch. Five themes — Light, Dark, Paper, Dusk, and a colour-blind-friendly Accessible palette. Soft ambient music and gentle haptics. Every sound has a tap-mute on the Home screen, no settings dive needed. No ads. No accounts. No real-money purchases. Anonymous product analytics only — no IDs, no personal data, no tracking. Your stats live on this device.

Cavernum is a number-pairing puzzle game for casual puzzle players of all ages. It does not require an account or sign-in. Descend into the Cavern of Numbers. Match two tiles that are equal, or that add up to ten, and clear a path through the stone. Simple to learn. Not always simple to solve. Each level is a cave with its own shape and its own problem. Clear tiles and the grid compresses, closing gaps and opening connections you couldn't see a move ago. Paths wrap around edges. Diagonals count. The board you start with is never quite the board you end up solving. The caves go deeper, and they don't stay simple. Void tiles open in the floor. Rock blockers wall off the routes you wanted. Gates and chests wait further down, past the point where guessing stops working. Four tools help when you're stuck: Hint, Undo, Swap, and Add Numbers. Use them well. Swap only works once per level, and there's no second chance at it. No account. No sign-in. Play anywhere, though ads need a connection. Cavernum is a puzzle you can pick up in a minute and think about for a lot longer.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Quiet Pixels at none against Cavernum's 7. Quiet Pixels also leads on ads (none vs shown). Cavernum's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs monthly) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
