Spend a Tip to reveal one colour's path WHAT YOU GET • A hand-tuned level pack that grows from gentle 5×4 grids to dense 8×8 boards • Daily Challenge — one fresh puzzle a day, with a streak calendar and bonus Tips for completing a week or a whole month • Zen mode — endless procedurally generated boards, your size, no pressure, no timer • Two calm themes — a dark starfield and a light sand — switch any time • Fully offline.
