Tap a sparkling gem and watch every gem of that color whoosh into place. Sparkle Cat is a relaxing diamond painting puzzle with 150 pixel art pictures: a stretching cat, a shiny cupcake, a whale spouting water and many more. A cozy, satisfying way to unwind, online or offline. How to Play • Tap a cluster of same-colored gems and they fly into matching empty squares. • Gems with nowhere to go yet wait on the shelf below. Finish a color and the shelf gets 3 more slots. • Place the last gem and the gems rebuild the picture from the bottom up, so you can enjoy what you made. • No timer, and no level you fail and have to restart. Go at your own pace. 150 Pictures in 15 Sets Cat Days · Sweet Treats · Street Snacks · Under the Sea · Warm Bowls · Flower Garden · Lucky Charms · Forest Friends · Four Seasons · Puppy Pals · Alley Walk · Festival Days · Fruit Stand · Farm Friends · Things That Go Every puzzle you finish opens the next picture.

Your Progress Is Safe • No sign-up. Progress is saved on your device. • Settings › Backup lets you export your progress to a file and import it on another phone. • Purchases come back with Restore purchases. • Puzzles work offline (ads and purchases need a connection).
