Find every fool in the court. Jester Sweep is a relaxing logic puzzle built around three simple rules — and zero guessing. Every colored court hides exactly one jester. No two jesters can share the same row or column, and no two can touch, even diagonally. Every puzzle begins with one jester already placed. From that single clue, logic is all you need. Each court is generated and verified to have exactly one valid solution, so every victory comes from deduction, not luck. HOW TO PLAY • Tap a square to mark it with an X • Double-tap a square to place a jester • Protect your three jester hats — they're your lives SIMPLE RULES. BIGGER CHALLENGES. Start with compact 5x5 courts and work your way up to challenging 8x8 puzzles. The rules stay the same as the courts grow larger and more complex.
