Arrow Loop
Read full descriptionHide full description
Sharpen your logic in quiet focus. One loop. A handful of black cells. That's the whole rule— yet the deeper you look, the clearer your mind becomes. Guided by arrow-and-number clues, link every empty cell into a single closed loop, and shade exactly as many black cells as each arrow points to. That's Arrow Loop. No server, no account—everything stays on your device. WHAT YOU GET - A loop-and-shade logic puzzle: draw the path, shade the cells—two tactile modes - Always one solution: a solver verifies uniqueness as each board is built - Four difficulty tiers: from a gentle 6×6 to a fierce 12×12 - Today's puzzle: seeded by the date, the same board for everyone, worldwide - Two input modes: drag to draw the loop, tap to shade—simple and direct - Gentle assists: toggle mistake-highlighting, or take a quiet hint - Records & streaks: solves, average time, and daily streaks, shown calmly - Fully offline: play anywhere, no signal needed - English & Japanese, in a calm, paper-and-ink look MADE FOR YOU IF - You want to turn a few spare minutes into quiet, focused thinking - You love Slitherlink, Nurikabe, or nonograms - You're tired of ad-heavy, account-required puzzle apps - You care about the satisfying click of a single, certain answer - You want a small pre-sleep ritual with no notifications chasing you
Sunsprout

Move the sun, plant a few seeds and watch life spread over grey ruins. Sunsprout is a calm puzzle game about light and shadow: no rush, no timers and no lives. THE LIGHT OF THE MOMENT Each seed grows with the light shining when you plant it, and whatever has grown stays. Plant, move the sun, plant again: most levels need two or three different lights. While you drag a seed, the tiles it would cover glow, so you can experiment as much as you like. THREE PLANTS, MANY IDEAS • Grass: grows in the sun and can't climb or drop a step. • Moss: loves the shade and can climb one step. • Ivy: climbs walls and covers the ledge above. Later on you'll meet lanterns that light up the night, ice that blocks the way, steam vents that cast shade and mirrors that carry the sun across a whole row. A JOURNEY THROUGH BIOMES Meadow, autumn forest, snowy valley, sleeping volcano, lantern night, frozen lake, steam valley and the city of mirrors. Every level has its own weather: breeze, rain, distant storms, crickets at dusk or cicadas in summer, with soft music in the background. AT YOUR OWN PACE • Unlimited undo and restart. • Dragonfly hints: the first one is free; the rest cost dewdrops, which you earn by playing. • Golden flowers for anyone who wants an extra challenge. • Stuck on a level? Leave it for later and come back from the map. • Spin the island 360°, tilt it and pinch to zoom. • Plays offline. FAIR AND STRESS-FREE Sunsprout is free to play. The first levels have no ads, and after that there's only the occasional gentle ad between levels. A single purchase removes them for good. Themes change the look of the whole game and can be earned by playing or bought: nothing gives an advantage or rushes you. Over 80 levels to start with, and many more on the way.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Arrow Loop at none against Sunsprout's shown. On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
