Color Dock
Read full descriptionHide full description
Color Dock is a calm, cozy puzzle about putting things in their proper place. Give each cup a gentle flick and watch it glide across the shelf until it settles onto the saucer that matches its color. That's the whole idea โ simple to learn, and quietly satisfying every single time. No timers. No pressure. No frantic tapping. Just you, a cupboard full of pretty crockery, and that lovely little click of a cup finding its home. WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT โข Easy to pick up โ if you can swipe, you can play. โข Relaxing by design โ play at your own pace, whenever you like. โข Clever without being cruel โ puzzles that make you feel smart, not stuck. โข Beautiful, warm crockery you'll want to keep sorting. โข A gentle daily habit โ a few minutes of calm whenever you need it. HOW IT WORKS Swipe a cup and it slides until something stops it. Line each one up with its matching saucer to clear the shelf. Later puzzles add jars to steer around, shaped shelves, and joined "long mug" pieces that move as one โ but it always stays fair, and there's a hint waiting whenever you'd like a nudge. Pour yourself a cup of tea, and come sort the cupboard.

Shadow Grid is a calm, satisfying 3D puzzle: stack and rotate simple blocks on a grid until the shadows they cast on two walls match the target silhouette exactly. - 200 handcrafted levels, from a gentle two-piece start to real spatial-reasoning challenges. - A separate 100-level Pro pack for players who want a tougher challenge - bigger grids, more pieces, and blocks that sit at different heights so the shadows overlap in ways you can't just read off the floor. - Drag pieces along the floor and tap to rotate - no timers, no penalties, just figure it out at your own pace. - Global leaderboard: pick a username and an avatar, and see how your progress compares to other players. - Five visual skins to re-color your blocks, from a classic monochrome look to warmer palettes. - Reset any level instantly and try again as many times as you like. No sign-up required - just open the app and start stacking. An optional one-time purchase removes ads entirely.
