Think Harder: A Unique Casual Game Ready for something you have never played before? Think Harder is a unique casual game where every level surprises you in a different way. The obvious answer is not always the right answer. Sometimes you need to think twice. Other times, you need to look again. Sometimes, you should simply expect the unexpected. Tap, drag, swipe, zoom, flip, tilt, shake, listen, wait, sort, find patterns, turn up the volume, and think differently to uncover solutions hidden in plain sight. Every level is handcrafted to deliver a fresh and unique experience. One moment you are solving a simple task, and the next you are questioning everything you thought you knew. Hidden solutions, unexpected interactions, clever mechanics, and unique device features make every level feel different. CORE GAMEPLAY Every level starts with a simple objective, but the way to complete it is always different. Read the situation carefully, understand the scene, and use your touch, your device, or your intuition to find the answer.

Ottomino

Ottomino is a block puzzle with one rule that changes everything: every day the whole world gets the same 8×8 grid and the same sequence of pieces, and everyone has a single attempt. That is why scores can actually be compared. HOW IT PLAYS • 8×8 grid, three pieces in hand at a time. • Pieces cannot be rotated: placement is the whole game. • A full row or column clears; several lines at once, or on consecutive moves, build the multiplier. • The run ends when none of the three pieces fits anywhere. • No timer: this is spatial logic, not speed. A game lasts three to five minutes. THREE WAYS TO PLAY • Daily challenge — one grid, the same for everyone, one attempt. It resets at midnight UTC. At the end you get your percentile, a rank from Wood to Grandmaster, and your position among the people who played near you. • Training — no limits, your own record is the opponent. • Groups — a private group joined by code or link: everybody plays the identical round and the app ranks the group. THE ZONE ARENA No global list of strangers: the app looks for the smallest ring around you containing at least five real people — town, 10 km, 25 km, province, region, country. It widens on its own until it finds them, so it is never empty and never anonymous. AI players are always labelled as such and are never counted as people. IN PRACTICE • Free. One full-screen ad when a run ends, never during play, and no ads at all for players under 16. • No account, no email, no login. • Every game can be replayed move by move. • Eight languages: Italian, English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish. • iPhone and iPad: on a tablet in landscape the board and the pieces sit side by side. The name comes from otto, Italian for eight: eight columns, eight rows.
