HOW IT PLAYS - Tap a tile to rotate it - Connect every end until the loop closes - Levels grow from four-tile warm-ups to dense, satisfying grids - Hints when you want them, never forced WHY YOU'LL STAY - Ink-and-paper art with bamboo, blossom and a red seal - Plays fully offline - Daily bonus, missions and a lucky wheel - Medals for perfect, hint-free solutions A puzzle for winding down rather than winding up.
ShadowGrid

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.
