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.
Witchdoku

Looking for a game that calms you down while keeping your mind sharp? Witchdoku is a pure logic puzzle that blends the disciplined reasoning of Sudoku with the deduction of Minesweeper. One mission: give every witch the space she demands. SIMPLE RULES, DEEP STRATEGY ⢠One per color. The board is split into colored regions ā exactly one witch belongs in each. ⢠One per line. No two witches share a row or a column. ⢠No touching. Witches guard their space fiercely ā they can't sit side by side, not even diagonally. ⢠Risk and reward. Tap once to mark a square with X, tap again to place a witch. You get three pumpkins. Guessing won't save you ā every move has to be earned by reasoning. EVERY PUZZLE IS FAIR All 250 levels are verified one by one: each has exactly one solution and can be solved by pure logic. No level ever forces you to guess. A GENTLE CLIMB Boards grow from a friendly 5x5 up to a demanding 9x9, so the difficulty rises with you instead of ahead of you. KEY FEATURES ⢠Non-intrusive ads. Nothing interrupts a puzzle. Watch an ad only if you want extra hints. ⢠Two kinds of help. The lamp shows every square you can rule out and marks them all at once; the witch places one correct witch for you. ⢠Drag to mark. Sweep across squares to cross them out, sweep back to clear them. ⢠Stars for perfection. Finish without losing a pumpkin and earn all three. ⢠21 languages, and your progress is saved on your device. WHY WITCHDOKU STAYS ON YOUR PHONE No daily grind, no social pressure, no timers shouting at you. Just a minimalist board, a satisfying tap, and a logic loop that keeps turning in your head long after you put the phone down. Ready to out-think a coven of very particular witches?
