## Description

Chain is a number-path puzzle with one rule and no luck in it.<br><br>Every board is a shape, not a rectangle — a diamond, a ring, a blob with a<br>jagged edge. Fill every empty cell so the numbers run 1, 2, 3 and on up to the<br>last one, with each number touching the one before it. Diagonals count. Some<br>numbers are printed for you; the first and the last always are.<br><br>Every puzzle has exactly one solution, and every puzzle is checked for that<br>before you ever see it. There is no guessing, no scoring system to game, and<br>nothing to wait for.<br><br>A GAME THAT RESPECTS YOUR TIME<br>• Five difficulties, from a gentle 24-cell Easy to an 11x11 Master<br>• A new Daily puzzle every day, the same one for everybody<br>• Streaks, best times per difficulty, and a calendar you can fill in<br>• No timers pushing you, no lives to run out of, no energy meter<br><br>BUILT TO BE PLAYED WITH ONE THUMB<br>• Tap a number to arm it, then trace the path — or use the number pad<br>• Undo and erase are free and unlimited<br>• Pinch to zoom and drag to pan on the bigger boards<br>• Reduced motion and haptics toggles, and a mute switch<br><br>THE RIBBON<br>As you solve, a line of light joins the numbers you have placed. Disconnected<br>fragments grow toward each other, and the moment two runs merge a pulse travels<br>the whole length. Finishing sends that pulse from 1 all the way to the end.<br><br>Chain works offline. Your progress is stored on your device and nowhere else.
