Place six bugs by pure logic. No numbers, no timer, one rule per board.
Read full description
Bugsdoku is a logic puzzle played with bugs instead of numbers. Nothing to add up, nothing to memorise. You look at the garden board, work out where each bug has to go, and put it there.
Simple Rules, Deep Strategy
One bug per row. One bug per column. One bug per coloured region. And no two bugs may touch, not even at a corner. That is the entire rule set and you will have it inside ten seconds. Then the boards grow from 4x4 up to 10x10 and those same four rules start asking real questions. Mark the squares you have ruled out with an X, follow the chain, and the answer is always sitting there. Every board has exactly one solution, and not one of them needs a guess.
A Bug Sudoku With No Numbers
Six garden regulars do the job the digits usually do: a ladybug, a bee, a butterfly, a snail, a beetle and a caterpillar. They arrive one at a time as you climb the levels, so the board never hands you six strangers at once. Puzzle solvers who bounce off number grids tend to get on with this one, because a bug on a leaf is easier to hold in your head than a 7.
Relaxing Brain Teaser Games
There is no timer. Nothing counts down, nothing flashes at you, nothing is lost by putting the phone down mid board. Stuck is fine. Hint points you at the next square that can be worked out, Reveal shows you one bug's home when a board has properly stalled, and Retry wipes it clean if you would rather start the thinking again.
