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. FEATURES • Hundreds of puzzles, from relaxing small grids to tough 9x9 boards • Daily Challenge: a new puzzle every day, plus monthly trophies to collect • Special Challenge: drag every piece to its place • Collect shape cards and complete your collection • No timers and no pressure: play at your own pace • Works offline, anywhere you go • Clean minimalist design with satisfying haptic feedback WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • Clues light up when a row or column is complete • A short tutorial teaches the rules in a minute • Hide the grid background in the settings for an even cleaner look TIPS • Compare rows and columns together: a shape often crosses both. • When a clue is complete, mark every other shape in that line with X. • Start where the numbers leave the least room for doubt. If you enjoy Nonograms, Sudoku, Kakuro or number puzzles, you will feel right at home, with a twist you have never seen before. Perfect for a quick break, a long trip or a relaxed evening.
