Tuck a sleepy cat in beside every cushion. NekoZabuton is a cozy nap-time logic puzzle that never asks you to guess. Every single puzzle can be solved with pure deduction — no luck, no leaps of intuition, just calm, satisfying logic. HOW TO PLAY - Place one cat next to each cushion (directly above, below, left, or right) - Cats need their space: no two cats can touch, not even diagonally - The numbers along the edges tell you how many cats sleep in each row and column WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT - 300 handcrafted puzzles, every one verified to be solvable without guessing - No penalties and no pressure. Undo, redo, and pencil marks let you think at your own pace - Hints that actually teach: instead of just revealing an answer, each hint explains why a cat belongs there - A new Daily Puzzle every day — build a streak one quiet morning at a time - Works completely offline, so you can play on flights, trains, and anywhere else - Supports Dark Mode, VoiceOver, and larger text sizes A QUIET GAME, ON PURPOSE No flashing lights, no loud fanfare, no lives to run out of. Just you, a small grid, and a few cats who really need their nap. A round can be as short as a minute — perfect for a little break — or stretch out like a lazy Sunday afternoon. ABOUT ADS NekoZabuton is free to play and supported by ads. Ads never appear on the puzzle screen while you are solving, and how often they appear is capped. Every feature is available to everyone, whether or not you ever watch an ad. If you enjoy tents-and-trees style grid puzzles, nonograms, or sudoku, this kind of pure logic will feel right at home — with more cats. Curl up, get comfortable, and help everyone fall asleep.

ガラスの箱の中に、青いブロック。 正面から光を当てると、奥の壁に影が落ちます。 その影を、壁に描かれた「お題」の形にぴったりそろえるパズルです。 ■ 遊び方 ・横になぞると、箱を左右に回す ・縦になぞると、箱を奥・手前に倒す――重力の向きが変わって、ブロックが転がり落ちる ・2本指でくるっと、箱をひねる ・影がお題と重なったらクリア。最短手数なら星3つ ■ 間違えて回さない操作感 ・指を離すまで操作は確定しません。なぞっている間は箱が指に吸いつくように回り、「離すと 右に回す」と教えてくれます ・確定の位置を越えると、指先に軽い手ごたえ。戻せば取り消し ・斜めのあいまいな動きは無視。動いている最中のタッチも受け付けません ・それでも間違えたら「戻す」で1手ずつ元どおり ・ボタン操作にも対応 ■ 特徴 ・指を動かして覚える、動くお手本つきのチュートリアル ・全60レベル。すべて最短手数を計算済み ・手数には(ゆるめの)上限あり。当てずっぽうでは解けない、考えるパズル ・なぞっている間、「離すと影がどうなるか」を先に表示 ・迷ったら「次の一手」で最短ルートの一手を表示 ・もう揃わない形になったらすぐにお知らせ ・「次の一手」は各レベル3回まで無料。オフラインでも遊べます
