About

SamePop!

Read full description

Pop your way to a perfectly empty board. SamePop! takes the classic same-color puzzle and gives it a glossy glass makeover: tap any group of two or more matching blocks to pop them, watch the rest tumble down and slide together, then line up your next big move. THINK BIGGER, SCORE BIGGER Small pops are fine. Huge pops are the whole game. Scoring rewards patience โ€” one giant single-color group is worth way more than a dozen little ones. Herd your colors, build a monster group, then pop it for a number that makes the leaderboard sweat. CHASE THE ALL-CLEAR Empty the entire board and grab a +1000 bonus. It's tougher than it looks โ€” and dangerously satisfying once you pull it off. ONE GAME, EVERY SCREEN Play the full-screen board on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, and Apple Vision Pro. Same game, same glossy pop, from your pocket to your living room. WHAT'S INSIDE โ€ข Simple to learn, genuinely deep to master โ€ข Game Center leaderboard and achievements โ€ข Colorblind-friendly palette option โ€ข No ads, no timers, no nonsense โ€” pay once, play forever Ready? The board's full. Get popping.

Sweepish

Read full description

Sweepish is classic Minesweeper with one promise: you will never have to guess. NO GUESSING, EVER Every board is generated with a built-in logic solver that proves the whole board can be cleared by deduction alone, starting from your first tap. If the solver cannot finish a board without guessing, you never see that board. Your first tap always opens an empty area. When you lose, it was a misread, not bad luck, and you can always find the next safe move. PAY ONCE, PLAY FOREVER No ads, no in-app purchases, no account, no data collection. Nothing leaves your device. The game works fully offline: on a plane, on the subway, anywhere. THE RULES YOU KNOW - Tap to open a cell, long-press to flag (or swap the two in Settings) - Tap a number whose flags match to open everything around it - Ten levels that grow smoothly from an easy 9x9 with 10 mines to the full Expert 30x16 with 99, all in portrait - Pinch to zoom on the big boards 500 STAGES A journey of 500 stages that climbs one level every 50. Each stage is the same puzzle for every player, and any cleared stage can be replayed. DAILY CHALLENGE One shared puzzle every day, the same board for everyone in the world, generated from the date itself. Keep a streak going for a bigger point bonus each day. POINTS AND RANK Every win earns points, harder boards earn more, and a stage's first clear pays double. Points add up to a rank that never goes down. If you like, compare daily times and total points on Game Center leaderboards; it is entirely optional. FREE ASSISTS Every helper is free, and every board can be finished without using any of them. - Hint: highlights one cell that logic can decide right now and shows which number proves it - Safe reveal: makes the next logical move for you - Shield: hit a mine, flag it, keep playing (up to three per board) Time records only count clean wins without a shield or safe reveal. STATS Games, wins, win rate, best times and streaks for every level and for the daily challenge, plus your five best times, stored on your device only. Built for people who loved the original and were tired of losing to coin flips.
