About

Riplune

Read full description

Riplune is a calm, original logic puzzle where you fill colourful regions and keep matching numbers from crowding each other. Two rules. Real depth. Every region of N cells holds the numbers 1 through N โ€” exactly one of each. And two identical values K in the same row or column must sit at least K cells apart. Small numbers are flexible. Large numbers reach far, and finding room for them is the whole pleasure. There are no ads, no coins, no streaks, and no pay-to-win shortcuts. Just puzzles, a timer, and your best thinking. FIVE LEVELS, FIVE BOARDS โ€ข Beginner โ€” 4ร—4, values 1โ€“3, 10 hints โ€ข Easy โ€” 5ร—5, values 1โ€“3, 6 hints โ€ข Medium โ€” 6ร—6, values 1โ€“4, 4 hints โ€ข Hard โ€” 7ร—7, values 1โ€“5, 3 hints โ€ข Expert โ€” 8ร—8, values 1โ€“6, 2 hints Each step up is a bigger board, not just fewer clues. SOLVABLE BY LOGIC Every puzzle is generated and then verified to have exactly one solution reachable by deduction alone. You are never asked to guess. WHAT YOU GET โ€ข Puzzles built fresh, with dozens of layouts per level โ€ข Star ratings and a personal best time for every board โ€ข Hints that reveal one safe cell at a time โ€ข A check that flags broken rules without solving it for you โ€ข Clean, accessible design with VoiceOver support โ€ข Fully offline โ€” no account, no internet, no tracking โ€ข One-time premium unlock โ€” no subscription RIPLUNE PREMIUM A single purchase unlocks Medium, Hard and Expert.
