Shapegram is a logic puzzle with a fresh twist: every grid is split into irregular colored shapes, and you decide which ones to fill. HOW TO PLAY • Tap a shape to fill it completely, tap again to empty it. • The numbers on the top and on the left tell you how many squares must be filled in that row or column. The small circle shows how many separate shape parts they are split into. • Use X mode to mark the shapes that must stay empty. • Every mistake costs a heart, so think before you tap. Stuck? Use a hint. GAME MODES • Levels: from small relaxing grids to tough 9x9 boards, the difficulty grows as you do. • Daily Challenge: a brand-new puzzle every day. Finish it to earn monthly trophies and fill your trophy cabinet. • Special Challenge: a different twist where you drag every piece to its place on the board.
