So funktioniert's In jedem Rätsel muss genau eine Krone pro Zeile, pro Spalte und pro Farbregion platziert werden. Kronen dürfen sich dabei nicht berühren – auch nicht diagonal. Klingt einfach, fordert aber echtes logisches Denken. Funktionen - Wählbare Brettgrößen: 6×6, 8×8 und 10×10 - Auswählbares Symbol statt der Krone: Katze, Hund oder klassisch – wahlweise als Symbol oder als farbiges Bild - Intelligente Hinweis-Funktion mit echter Logik-Deduktion statt reinem Lösungsverrat - Fehleranzeige beim Spielen - Für iPhone und iPad, auch im Querformat - Komplett kostenlos, ohne Werbung und ohne In-App-Käufe - Keine Internetverbindung nötig – alles läuft lokal auf deinem Gerät Privatsphäre Crownwise verarbeitet keinerlei Nutzerdaten, nutzt kein Tracking und keine Analyse-Dienste.
