Blocksways vs Dadoku

A calm, uncluttered take on the block puzzle — no timer and no pressure. How to play Drag the three shapes from the tray onto the 9×9 grid. Fill a whole row or a whole column and it clears away, making room for more. Once you've placed all three shapes, a new set of three appears. The game ends when none of the shapes will fit anywhere on the board — so every move is about keeping your options open. Completely free — no ads, no accounts, nothing locked behind a purchase. There's an optional tip jar if you'd like to support development. Turn and plan ahead Double-tap any shape in the tray to turn it a quarter turn, as often as you like. The next three shapes are shown under the tray so you can plan your moves — or hide them in Settings for a tougher game. Score and combos You earn points for every block you place, and more for clearing lines. Clear more than one line at once, or clear lines on back-to-back moves, and you'll pick up a bonus on top. A running combo shows on screen, and emptying the whole board earns a big bonus. Your highest score is saved on your device. Daily Puzzle A new puzzle every day. Start from a partly filled board with nine set shapes, in three sets of three, and score as high as you can to earn up to three stars. The week gets harder as it goes, from easy on Monday to expert on Sunday, and you can try again as often as you like. Your results and your streak of consecutive days are saved on your device. Gets tougher as you go As your score climbs, new shapes join the mix. Each new shape is guaranteed to turn up in the next set of shapes drawn, so you won't wait long to try it. The small shapes still turn up, just less often, so the further you get, the more every move counts. No timer There's no clock and no move limit. Take as long as you like over each placement — the only thing that ends a game is running out of room. Clean, quiet design No internet connection required. No sign-up, no notifications, no nonsense. Just you and the grid.

Sudoku that stays quiet. No drop shadows, no fireworks, no banners jumping at you. Paper-coloured background, numbers, and a few lines. A game lasts five to fifteen minutes and nothing interrupts it. • Six difficulty levels — from your first grid to genuinely hard ones • 4×4, 6×6 and 9×9 • A daily puzzle everyone in the world solves on the same day, with a streak worth keeping • Hints that tell you why, not just where • Pencil marks, undo, and an error check you can switch off • Statistics per level — best time, average, completion rate • 19 languages No full-screen ads. Nothing covers the screen between games. The banner sits where it cannot hide the board. You only watch an ad when you choose to — to refill lives or take an extra hint. Tablets are not a stretched phone. Turn a tablet sideways and the timer, mistakes, tools and number pad move into their own column beside the board. The two layouts were built separately. No account. There is nothing to sign up for. Your game in progress, statistics and settings stay on the device, and everything works with no connection. Every puzzle is checked for exactly one solution before it reaches you. And a finished grid is judged by the rules of sudoku, not by comparing it to a stored answer — if you solved it your own way, you solved it.
