Can you solve these puzzles?
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Absolutely free app with no ads and no-app purchases! Several levels of difficulty along with a daily puzzle to see how long you can keep your streak alive!
Gameplay
• Goal: rearrange the numbered tiles so every row and column adds up to the target. Diagonals can optionally be included.
• Moves: tap one tile, then another, to swap them. Swapping equal values doesn't count as a move.
• Levels: Easy uses a 3×3 grid; Medium uses a 4×4 grid and Hard uses a 5×5 grid.
• Totals: row, column and diagonal sums show beside the board. They are red until they match the target, then turn green.
• Tools: Undo, Redo, Hint and Restart. Each hint counts as a move.
• Diagonals: you can include both, only the main one, or none. The Easy level uses the right-to-left diagonal only when the target is divisible by 3.
• Timed mode: an optional clock that pauses when the page or window isn't active.
Daily puzzle
• A date-based challenge, available once per day on the Easy level.
• It is always played with diagonals and the timer on.
• Solving it extends your daily streak.
Scoring
• Par: an estimate of the fewest swaps needed to solve the puzzle.
• Stars: each finished puzzle earns 1 to 3 stars, based on moves (hints included) against par.
• Saved results: moves, hints, par, time, diagonal setting and daily date are stored with each score.
Players and history
• Profiles: multiple local player profiles, which you can add, switch and delete.
• History page: shows all completed games, newest first, plus personal-best moves and best times per level.
• Daily streak: the history page also shows your daily streak.
• Stars total: the history page shows total stars earned out of the maximum possible, with a percentage.
• Reset: history can be reset, with a confirmation.
Saving and resuming
• Auto-save: an unfinished puzzle is saved automatically for each player, including moves, undo history and elapsed time.
• Resume prompt: on startup you get a "Puzzle resumed" prompt, and the timer stays stopped until you dismiss it.
• Safeguards: you're asked to confirm before discarding or leaving a game in progress.
App UI and extras
• Pages: Home, Switch Profiles, Show History, Help, About, Privacy Policy and Other Apps.
• Look: a light/dark theme and a card-style layout.
• Accessibility: descriptions and hints on the controls.
