What’s New
Version 1.4.4
• Fixed an issue where some Medium levels accidentally shared the same Puzzle ID — completing one would mark the others as done. Don’t worry, any progress you’ve already made is safe.
• The app will now stay awake while you’re in the middle of solving a puzzle, even if you don't make a move for a while.
• Squashed a few more crashes related to sound effects. If you still experience crashes, please report them or try turning sound effects off.
• Added a link to the new Bullpen Subreddit: r/BullpenGame
Ratings and Reviews
Best puzzle game I’ve played in ages
Fantastic little puzzle game, looks good and playing it - the controls, the feedback - just feels responsive and satisfying. Plus the number of levels is enormous.
In terms of puzzle games, it’s somewhat similar to sudoku.
Would be nice if there was an option to turn off hint reminders, though. Or to hide the timer.
Developer Response ,
Thanks so much for this review!
Good news, based on your feedback I just released an app update which now has a new setting called "Zen Mode" which will hide all timers. ⌛
Also if you ever get the Hint reminder prompt, you can tap "Don't show again" to not get bothered with it anymore.
simple and satisfying
This truly feels like a mix of Sudoku and Minesweeper, and it works really well. It's also simple, but satisfying challenging.
My one complaint: there isn't a way to go back and see today's Daily Challenge puzzles after completing them; my partner and I can't compare notes after the fact. 😅
Review
It’s great! No ads and the 5$ was totally worth buying the rest of the game access even before that there’s literally 200 free levels!
Only wish was I wish it had a dark mode theme!!!
