Welcome to Palace Cat Puzzle! This is a sliding block puzzle mobile game themed around traditional Chinese imperial palaces, inspired by the classic Huarong Dao puzzle. On the game board, the golden big cat is your protagonist. Slide various cat pieces in all directions to clear a path for the golden cat, and escort it to the golden exit at the bottom to clear the stage. Levels are scattered across multiple layers of palaces; the fewer steps you take, the higher your star rating. Each level also features immovable "town stones" and one-way sliding "slide rail" pieces, adding a deeper layer of strategy to the gameplay.

Sortify Tiles is a quiet, fully offline puzzle. You restore azulejo walls by seating glazed tiles into the right family band, then continuing every seam — pointed to pointed, round to round, straight to straight. Family is the admission rule. Matching edges is the win condition. A wrong tile simply returns to the bench and adds a retry. There are no lives, no energy, no fail state, and no ads. Campaign • 36 walls across 3 chapters, every wall generated backwards so it is always solvable • Three pattern families: vine, wave, and star • Three workshop tools: Suction Cup, Template Ruler, Kiln Refire • Stars from retries, not from a timer Around the atelier • 24 collectible finished walls • Daily and weekly tasks, 20 awards, a 7-day stamp card • A supply shelf that spends Points — the only currency • Device-local ranks against Atelier Benchmarks, not other players • A timed Daily Challenge (3-tile bench + NEXT). This is the only countdown in the app Azu, a ceramic swallow, sits with you in the tutorial, on empty shelves, and when a wall is whole again. Nothing leaves the device.
