Sasha's Puzzles is a jigsaw table that feels like the real thing — warm, quiet and yours. REAL PIECES Every cut exists once and is shared by its two neighbours, so pieces meet exactly: no gaps, no "close enough". Pieces click into place with a soft sound and a gentle haptic tap. YOUR PHOTOS ARE PUZZLES TOO Pick any photo from your library and choose 12 to 800 pieces. Frame it the way you like — nothing is ever stretched. A NEW PUZZLE EVERY DAY The daily puzzle keeps a streak going. Solve it seven days in a row and earn an achievement. JUST THE HELP YOU NEED Snap assist pulls a piece home when it is close. A hint highlights the next step. A faint guide of the picture can sit under the board — or not. Everything is a switch in Settings. BUILT FOR THE IPAD Drag pieces from the tray with your finger, pinch to zoom, scatter pieces across the whole table or keep them tidy. Works in portrait and landscape, light and dark. COMPLETELY OFFLINE No account, no ads, no tracking, nothing leaves your device. The table is saved automatically — come back whenever you like. Also on Mac with keyboard shortcuts, undo and redo.

Casellina brings together fifteen logic and card games, made with care. No ads, no lives to lose, no account. One square at a time; logic does the rest. NINE GRID PUZZLES • Quadretto: sudoku, plus the 6 × 6 Mini. • Pareggio: takuzu, the binary puzzle, classic or with signs. • Stelletta: place the stars, one or two in every row, column and region. • Addendo: kakuro, cross sums. • Ponticello: hashi, bridges between islands. • Toppetta: shikaku, cut the grid into rectangles. • Filino: a numbered path through every square. • Incastro: crossword sums, four grids a day. • Bandierina: mine-clearing where you never have to guess. MAZZETTO, FIVE SOLITAIRE GAMES Klondike, Spider, FreeCell, Pyramid and TriPeaks, with their classic rules: draw 1 or 3, one to four suits, FreeCell's numbered deals. If you like, only deals known to be winnable. THE STUDIOLO, OUR ORIGINAL GAMES • Pennellino: three brushes, red, yellow and blue, paint the whole grid; where they cross, their colours mix. A brand-new puzzle, invented at Nidello. PLAY ANYWHERE, OFFLINE No connection needed: on a plane, abroad without data, on the subway or at the cabin, everything works. The grids, the deals, the daily challenges and the hints all live on your device. A DAILY CHALLENGE FOR EVERY GAME Every day, a new challenge in every game, the same for everyone. Gentle on Monday, tough on Sunday. The home screen shows where you stand, game by game, and sharing your time takes one tap. HONEST LEVELS Every grid has exactly one solution, reached by logic alone: never a guess. It is rated by the hardest technique it truly needs, and the app names it. HINTS THAT HELP Stuck? The hint shows the square to play right away, and why. A techniques guide, with real grids, comes with every grid puzzle. • Unlimited undo, check when you like or as you play • Statistics for each game • iPhone and iPad • Your games synced through your own iCloud, on all your devices • VoiceOver and Dynamic Type • Thirteen languages The free version includes every game in full: every level, hints, and every daily challenge, free forever.

It also adds detailed statistics and every colour theme. No account, no tracking.
