Dumpling Galaxy is a cozy logic puzzle game One rule. Endless grids. Place a dumpling in every row, every column and every coloured zone, and never two side by side. That's the whole game, and it will keep you thinking for months. Tap a square to mark it with a cross, tap again to clear it. Hold to place a dumpling: the grid shows you the square you are aiming at before you let go, so a slip of the finger never costs you. The only lesson is a real grid you solve in under a minute, and you can skip it. No timer to lose to. TRAVEL THE GALAXY Twelve worlds, from Planet Bao to the Ravioli Riviera, each with its own dumpling species and its own colors. Grids grow from a gentle 4×4 to a properly hard 12×12 past level 100, and the levels never run out: every board is generated fresh. BAO'S COUNTER Three orders a day, drawn from seventeen, the same three for everyone at the same stage. An easy one, a middling one, a demanding one, and one you can swap if it does not suit you. They do not pay themselves: you come by and collect them. Collect all three and the counter opens a booster, and each one moves the Menu of the week along, five steps whose fourth still stands after two missed evenings. A DAILY CHALLENGE One tough 8×8 a day, the same board for everyone, worth the most points on the leaderboard. Come back tomorrow for a new one. KEEP YOUR FLAME ALIVE Solve one puzzle a day to grow your streak. Miss a day and a shield saves it, drawn right into your week instead of a blank hole. You hold up to two, and earn one every seven days, so a single busy evening never wipes out weeks of play. Ten milestones climb from three days to a full year, and a gentle reminder reaches you before the flame goes out. CLIMB Daily, weekly and all-time leaderboards, plus seven leagues from Bronze to Celestial. Speed, clean solves and combos push your points up. COLLECT Earn stars by playing and spend them on your dumplings: nineteen outfits, four legendary ones with their own accessories and animations, and one mythic skin that cannot be bought at any price. The legendary set includes a chef's toque, a planet's ring, an aurora and a champion's crown. The mythic skin is earned only by clearing all eleven prestige badges. A season skin joins the shelf too: one piece per season, on sale from the 25th to the 1st during the festivals of its season, and back every year. Every day one skin drops 30% for twenty-four hours. Your stars also pay for boosters, and for a heart when you would rather not wait for the next one. 33 BADGES THAT PAY From your first solve to the truly hard ones: twenty flawless wins in a row, fifty daily challenges without a hint, a 12×12 cleared in under six minutes. Every badge you earn pays out in stars, and the eleven prestige ones pay six times more. Most players will never finish the list. THREE OUTFITS THAT ARE NEVER FOR SALE Flour Dust, Orbit Courier and Banquet Chef cannot be bought at any price. They are delivered: 75, then 250, then 500 orders. You see them in the shop from day one, locked, with what you still have left to deliver. FOUR SKINS DOWN THE ROAD Space Cadet, Shooting Star, Constellation and Nova unlock as you travel: levels 20, 50, 100, then 150. Never for sale either. They wait in the shop, locked, with your progress under each one, and crossing a milestone is celebrated right on the win screen: you can wear your new skin with a single tap. And a worldwide race to the summit: the first player to cross each milestone wins its #1 pennant, one of a kind in the whole galaxy, worn on the leaderboard. DAY AND NIGHT A soft cream sky by day, deep plum after dark. It switches on its own in the evening, or you can pin either. PLAYS ANYWHERE Every puzzle is generated on your device, so the whole game works offline. No account to create, no email asked for. Free, with an optional one-off purchase to remove ads.
