FREE TO START The first two worlds and the Daily Flip are free. One purchase unlocks everything else, forever: six more worlds, every secret, the full One-Shot ladder and the Sandbox. No ads, no tracking, no account. Every tile holds a number. Play one of yours onto it: the values add, the tile flips, and every lower-numbered neighbor topples after it, domino-chaining across the board. The catch: past 9, numbers roll over. 6 + 6 = 2. The goal: clear it all with a handful of numbers. That one rule hides the depth. Greed has a price, nines are fortresses, zeros are scalpels. And one perfect placement can flip the whole board in a single, glorious GRAND CASCADE. A JOURNEY OF EIGHT WORLDS 96 hand-calibrated levels teach the game by play, never by text. Stones block, seals lock, ice cracks, bombs level everything beside them, traps must never flip, wormholes carry your cascade across the board, and shifter tiles grow with every move you make. Collect a world's gems and its secret level appears. EVERY LEVEL CERTIFIED FAIR Each puzzle ships machine-verified: always solvable, par always exact, never cheap. Unlimited undo and a solver-powered hint are built in. Thinky, never punishing. THE DAILY FLIP One board, the whole world, every day. Keep your streak (one automatic repair a month, because life happens), and share your result without spoilers. FLOURISHES, NOT STARS Every level carries one optional master-goal: clear it in a single placement, never roll over, end on a 9. No grinding, no ratings, just elegance. MADE LIKE A TOY Chunky ceramic tiles that flip with real weight, synthesized marimba cascades that climb as your chain grows, haptics choreographed to every topple, Day and Night themes, Home Screen widgets for your streak, and in the large sizes today's Daily board and your numbers (extra-large on iOS 27). PRIVATE BY DESIGN No ads, no tracking, no account. Playable offline.

Fill every cell. Follow the clues. Find the solution. Unlike is a logic puzzle played with solid and outlined cells. Each number counts its neighbors with the opposite style. Only shared edges count: above, below, left and right. Gold-dot cells are already fixed; every other cell needs a style. LEARN BY PLAYING Four short lessons teach the rule through interactive examples. Open the playing guide during a puzzle, or use a hint to find a clue, understand the deduction and optionally place a cell. KEEP EXPLORING - A 200-level difficulty progression, with more puzzles beyond it. - Daily puzzles and free play at five difficulties. - Undo, redo and Check, plus optional live clue feedback. - Themes, larger tiles, high contrast and reduced motion options. - Choose your preferred language in the app. PROGRESS THAT STAYS WITH YOU Your unfinished puzzle saves on this device, including undo history. Completed levels and stars sync with iCloud when available. No Unlike account or registration is needed. Puzzles can be played offline. Ads may appear after campaign levels from level 4, and after Daily and Free Play puzzles. An optional one-time purchase removes ads in every mode. Additional themes are available individually or through Every Theme, which includes future paid themes. Existing Every Theme owners receive newly added paid themes without another purchase.
