Every animal needs its own space. Paddock is a quiet logic puzzle set on a small farm. Fences divide the field into paddocks, and you work out where each animal belongs. Four rules, one right answer, and nothing counting down while you think. THE RULES โ€ข One animal in every row โ€ข One animal in every column โ€ข One animal in every fenced paddock โ€ข No two animals may touch โ€” not even diagonally That is the whole game. Everything else is the field it is played on. THREE WAYS TO PLAY Daily Pasture โ€” one puzzle a day, the same one for everyone, with a streak worth keeping. Always free. Journey โ€” 130 hand-curated levels across five chapters, from a gentle 5ร—5 meadow up to a 9ร—9 in the highlands. The difficulty rises with the size of the field, never with the pressure. Endless โ€” as many fresh boards as you like. Every one is generated, checked, and guaranteed to have exactly one solution. HINTS THAT TEACH Ask for help and Paddock shows you the deduction, not the answer. It points at the row, explains why the animal has to go there, and only places it if you still want it to. You finish the board knowing something you did not know before. A FARM THAT FILLS IN Solving earns clover, and clover brings animals to the barn โ€” a jersey cow, a sheep, a goat, a highland, an alpaca, a goose, a sheepdog. Nine in all. Put any of them in the field and they play alongside you. QUIET BY DESIGN โ€ข Works fully offline, on a plane or underground โ€ข No account, ever โ€” nothing to sign up for โ€ข Your progress follows you across your own devices through iCloud โ€ข VoiceOver throughout, and Reduce Motion respected โ€ข English and German โ€ข iPhone and iPad PREMIUM Premium opens the full Journey, unlimited Endless boards, the complete Daily archive, every theme and a choice of app icon, and removes ads. Available as a subscription or as a one-time lifetime purchase โ€” the lifetime option is there because not everybody wants a subscription, and it is not going away. The Daily Pasture stays free either way. It is the reason to open the app, and gating it would be the wrong kind of clever. Questions or Feedback?

About

Sort Parade!

Read full description

Welcome to Sort Parade, a puzzle about sorting cards by what they are. The board is a mix of themes โ€” feathers, minerals, penguins, astronauts. Move a card onto the collection card for its theme, fill it up, and that whole theme leaves the board. Cards below slide up to fill the gap. Clear every theme on the board to finish the level. The closer two cards look, the more careful you should be. A striped butterfly and a striped gift, a robot and a piece of space gear โ€” some cards take a second look before you know where they belong. A wrong drop still costs you a move, so look before you sort. Features โ€ข Over 600 levels, each with a new set of themes to sort โ€ข 3 holding slots โ€” park a card that has nowhere to go yet โ€ข Hidden cards โ€” move the card beside one to reveal what it is โ€ข Hint, Undo and Magnet โ€” three items for when you get stuck โ€ข No timer โ€” take your time, just watch your move count โ€ข Simple drag controls, easy to play with one hand One quick level or a long session. A card puzzle that rewards picking the right order, never rushing you. Start sorting with Sort Parade today!
