What it does

Cosy Puzzle Cabin is a calm, ad-free puzzle app designed for thoughtful play. Instead of interrupting puzzles with ads or subscriptions, it offers a growing collection of logic and word challenges you can enjoy at your own pace. Built as an indie project, the goal is simple: create a cosy space where puzzles come first and distractions stay outside the cabin.

    Sudoku with 0 Bells or Whistles2023 · ▲48

    Hello HN, I've created a new Sudoku app for iOS and Android that prioritizes simplicity and privacy. It's free to download and use, and I'd be grateful for any feedback or suggestions.
